When trading you need some kind of reference point to trade else you will be trading blindly. The 200 MA is being used as the main trend, and the key is to trade with the trend, and not against it. The key is to enter at the best possible entry....

This chart has the big dog system lined up
My macd indicator does not look like yours, mine has only one line and bars - yours has two lines and bars. Are you using a custom indicator for macd?

Also having trouble finding the pivots indi. Is this also a custom indi?

If a template for your system could be provided it would be helpful for quick set-up.

I look forward to testing your system. It appears simple and reliable.

I imagine I can use my macd just the same as yours except I would be watching for the bars to cross over the signal line, but I am not sure.

When I installed the template it looks great except no macd showed up. I must not have the same macd indicator.

Sorry to be a pain in the neck. . .but could you also post the macd indi?

When you got the right trend when the 200ema is up or down on the daily,then all you need is to check the 1hr and 15min 200ema is the same direction too then the indicators come to line up. POST#56 FOR RULES

Oh god, every 2 months someone will pop in FF and make a fool of themselves and create a magical indicator thread.

The truth is, the big boys as a collective group don't care about the 200 ema or sma. Neither do they give a crap about Stochs, MACD.

They pay attention to VaR, Daily Limits, Monthly limits, capital allocation, risk management, and what have you. They could care less about the 200 SMA. They could care less about the yield curve. They run their own flattener or steepener. Why the heck do they care about a mean average? They don't.
Take a report.

HERE IS GOOD MACD
Will set up and try out. I have been looking at charts all week-end trying to figure out a good way to identify the pullback entry points. I was already on to the long-term trend. . .just looking for a way to get in on the pull-backs at the right time. The pullbacks are obvious but entry can be deceptive. This looks promising.

Thanks again for your efforts. . .

think of it this way, a bank trader gets up in the morning, reads the bear sterns news and says to himself, crap, I have 100 blocks of calls I need to get rid of. WTF am I going to do? He doesn't consult the 200 sma, he consults his manager. And his manager says, look, if you hold on to these calls they'll expire worthless in 10 days, if you add to the calls you'll go over ur limit, if you cut now you'll take a 300 bucks loss. So what does he do? He gets rid of the position, he doesn't care whether MACD is crossing up, he doesnt care 200 sma is starting to trending up. He only knows if he doesn't get rid of it now, the bank's book will look worse.

no offense, just don't agree with you on "the big boys all use this" part.

news trading? You mean gambling?
lol

Maybe 200sma MACD System is more appropriate for this thread.

I just think The Big Dog Trading Secret would really offend some institutional traders out there. lol. Sorry if I made a scene.

Hi tcmm

Pay no mind to the naysayers. Those who take the time to test this system will be the ones who will know if it works or not.

I am posting your template and indicator in one zip. Hope you don't mind.
