Quoting andrewb7
question for anybody if on a daily chart the ema 5 is above 8 ema & rsi above 50 but is pointing down is it still a long trade??

maybe stupid but thought i would ask

andrew

No such thing as a stupid question here. Still a valid long. Anything I see on the Daily such as RSI pointing down, or almost at 50 or Price at Resistance or Support levels etc... any sign that might be against the daily Mint signal I make a note in my log and later when I get hourly Mint signals I check my notes and might not take a trade based on what I see in the daily chart. I sometimes check the 15 minute chart before taking a signal also.

Hope this helps

trade setups for 3/5. same as before. short on all with exception of long on eur/cad ( for those who trade it ) and no trade for gbp/usd. it seems to be a little tough right now. I also lost 20 last night on gbp/jpy but picked up 30 on aud/jpy. good trading everyone.

Agree with all of your trade setups for 3/5 except for gbp/usd. It is long on my daily rjofx chart( the chart that Harold always used for setups). The 5ema is @ 1.9834, 8ema@ 1.9787 and rsi @ 57.3546.

osta, Try going into the attachments folder ( the little paperclip icon ) and saving the StochasticDiNapoli v1[1].mq4 indicator to your documents and then copy and paste to metatrader. I don't think that ex4 file is the one that is the actual indicator. I hope this works for you. Give it a try and let me know.

I didn't trade last night, but my my thinking you did the right things. Just bad luck your sl got hit on GC. I've got a 12 pip spread on that pair so try to avoid it. GJ just didn't work out. I would have taken both trades as well. GC broke support, although it didn't close below it. All you can say is "I traded well by sticking to my plan" taken

thanks harold, it's good to know you're still keeping us in mind. I've been wondering how you were doing. a few of us are trying to keep things going here and, I think, with a little luck we'll get the job done. your last post will help a lot with the current market situation. Again, Thanks Much, Bob

Andrew, I got splattered by 30pips on the GBPJPY also.
I should have slashed and burned at -20 pips because doubt crept in but I vasilated.

I have just started demo this system and am at 70% win rate but I am finding that almost every trade goes againt me from the outset, and so I decided to measure this and its an average of -13 pips before in returns in my direction. Thing is I dont even know why I am measuring this!

I agree with previous posts, pip targets is now lower at 15. due to the flat prices, as soon as I am 10 pips to the good I move stop to break even as my number 1 goal is to protect my pot.

Nice to see your post Captain Harold-gives some kind of relief. And thanks for explaining the 15mins entry approach to your system, this acts as a kind of validation to what av been saying about it, and am sure wit this, most if not all the members of the family will more often than before stay out of false signals- I've been using the approach for quite a while now and its been quite effective.
Thanks Harold.

Hi

Could someone point me to the thread that explains the following points please, (or explain it). I have read this whole thread but need to refresh on these two points and cant remember where to find them.

1. Why are the 6 pairs chosen and anyone trading others?

2. What is the relevence of the 06:00GMT time and can we trade at each close of hourly candle if there is a signal (up to 14:00GMT I believe)

Thank you anyone

hi courtney,
the 6 pairs move at least 120 pips on average per day & 6gmt is when euro opens(i think thats right)
