Hi mate,

now the only problem is, that if the Main ADX goes above 25 some candles after the DIs have crossed = no alarm. Any possibility to change this?

Thanks...
Good catch. Those logic problems can be tricky.

Try this.

I've had four trades, four wins so far today, mainly B/J. I unfortunately missed that E/U beauty.

I am struggling with my entry timing though...just a lack of confidence I guess, but will keep at it.
Battling the greed fever is also no easy task...
4 winners are good for a day. That is easy 20 pips.

There is no exact entry point. Personally i enter as soon as the ADX rises above the 35 level after the sma has crossed.

Had good signals on the B/J during the past hour and took the trade.

I very seldom trade the Asian session .
All the signals seemed to be there, but it turned against me.
I'm off to stick my finger in a power socket as a reminder not to do that again, then I'll come, read the rules and try to follow my strategy as I aught .

Good pipping today guys...

i have had the same problem in the past. The signals were all there in the asian session but not the volumes. Therefor i have stopped trading the asian session. There is just not enough volume to keep the trend going.

The rallies seems to get shorter and shorter on the eur/usd. So we might be near a correction. I expect the eur/usd to push up one more time to test the all time high of 1.4528 since the 4hr stochastics is in a good buy position, but then i will get ready for a correction to the downside.

Why am i saying this? If you look at the chart you will see the eur/usd had a nice uptrend without a significant correction since aug 19. And as we know the market doesnt just keep going in one direction. At same stage the traders want to start take profits. And that will bring the price down.

Today might be the day....or later on this week......but it will come.

So if you have long trades currenctly open you might wanna protect them. Cause we dont want winners turn into loosers. Take you 5 pips and get out. And watch....

In the mean time i am off to the golf course

Hi Ian,

Alright, I just had a good trade on GBP/JPY again and recovered my losses from this morning (and yes, no more Asian session trading). Now to see if the market will give us todays quota.

Good morning, pipshark. good job on the trade.

One thing, I don't know about the others, but I can't read a thing on your chart attachment. Maybe select less area to copy?

Inside bar cannot make a higher high or lower low than the candlestick just to its left.

How to trade this candlestick formation:

this is a either or trade. either ur gonna go long. or ur gonna go short. It all depends which gets broken first. the high or the low.

Enter long (should be SHORT) as soon as the low of the inside bar get broken to the down side by the next candlestick.

Enter long as soon as high of the inside bar gets broken to upside by the next candlestick

Inside bar is undecisive candlestick so that means the price can either go up or down.
Ian, was just going over this again and noticed the above. I know everybody here knew exactly what you were saying, just thought I'd mention it.
