StewartR - I want my trading to be boring.

Hi StewartR,
We met a while back and you have strongly influenced my trading.
Your ideas of 1. Trend 2. Barrier rejection and 3. Confluence of indicators has been very helpful.
I recently added the matrix from the Genesis thread to my trading.

As a new FF member, I cannot post my trades yet, and some threads will not let me post, until I become a full member.

I hope you are doing well.

You once told me that Dick was using the 21,55, and 89 emas. I have been using the 20,50 and 200 emas to determine the trend.
For barriers, I have been using Daily and Weekly Pivots. They are great.
For Exhaustion at the Barrier, I have been using the 15m and 5m stochastic.
For momentum I have been using the TDI.
For confirmation I have been using the Genesis Matrix.

I have a goal of 2% per day. Since I size the trades at 2% = 20 pips, my goal is just 20 pips. So using a high probability setup, of trend + barrier + price proving the barrier to have held, 20 pips a day is a reliable goal. THere is no need to scale in or out. I just go for 20 pips and take it as an all or none type of thing.

So sad, my friend Stewartr is no more posting. He is one of the best helping persons here on FF.

Well thats interesting. Sad to see he lost interest, or what ever.

This thread is excellent. I trade very similarly. I have read about 200 posts so far and look forward to posting my own trades here, following the process and ideas started by Stewartr

The above trade went further than 1:1 risk:reward. I am still in.

AUDJPY - bearish outside bar, in direction of daily trend. Looking for bearish setup on 4 hour now.

Here is a perfect low risk setup. This is what I am looking for.
Trend + Pull back + Oscillator Extreme + Price action.
Look for 2:1 reward to risk.

Euro is moving now. We are deep into the uptrend, so it might be ready to retrace. But the price action is saying enter now, somI am in.

All euro pairs are giving entry signals. I will only take two pairs as the correlation almost doubles the risk.

Win 1.7r
trade posted live
here is the result

Eurcad was posted live too.

Nzdjpy
trade posted live

bearish price action stalled with the bullish pin bar

Homework for the coming week has been done. Now waiting for a pull back in the direction of the daily trend, with entry on a pull back in the 4 hour chart.

Just stumbled upon this thread by accident a few days ago and it was great to read Stewart's journey from 2007-2010.
Really inspiring stuff!!!

@StewartR, if you are still around, I would personally love to hear how you have evolved with your trading since your last post here at FF.

Cheers!!!

I was re-reading this thread and thought I’d post it to bump it up the forum for newer members to review.

For me, this thread is solid gold with a timeless and proven trading strategy.

Such a shame stewartr no longer posts but I sincerely hope he’s alive and well and sitting on a beach somewhere enjoying his profits from years of successful trading!
