Malcolmb,
Did I miss something way back? Interesting that you bring up the MACD and looks to be an excellent way to confirm RSI 14.

Does it replace the 20 pip rule & can it be used for 5 & 15 min TF's?

No you did not miss anything

I use rsi , macd and stochastic when i trade futures. They seem to work much better for futures than they do for foex. Not sure why.

I am short for 196.09 which is 23.6% monthly, for the month of April with 198.35 forming SL a rather tight one
the dumb GJ went down 50 pips then came back to hit my 30 trailing SL at +20

the current outlook is that with 197.82 forming a monthly support

if 198.35 is taken out then i will go long for 200.19 .

2 min chart with rapid rsi and macd

Obviously the trader has to determine the best time to use this technique , as it required volatility to produce results.

Since Nov'07 it been 5 month where GJ fall till 192. look at every monthly bar the upside is more likely 200-250pips then it fall. so if this behaviour continue means the top limit is 200 for this month.
(hope u guys understand what i mean since my english isnt very good)

This tension is think... you can cut it with a knife... and I'm guessing by the quick response to the previous drop.. it's going to the up side...

Your thoughts?

Reminds me of a game of tug-of-war

eur/gbp is heading towards 80 an maybe 81 by end of this week
I had hoped it would get to .8000 so I could short it but the EUR has tanked this morning.

Does anyone see a valid double top on the 4 hour chart?
I do see a weak GJ that has been heading due north for 5 hours straight.
the UJ carried up steady overnight. I thought it would have tested old highs at 101 but it looks like it has retreated. It looks like there is more GBP weakness due to USD strength.

Anyways I can't imagine GJ can keep heading due north without some correction. I am getting short from 199.

The trouble with macd is that it is generally a trailing indicator, which means that by the time you see something on it, it is too late to move on that info.

Macd I think is better as a confirmation on a small time frame chart like a 2 min. The main thing with macd I think is this:
Is it above 0 or below 0? above is bullish, below is bearish.
However what I find is that macd peaks or hit a low and at those points is when price reverses.

So I use it as well but not as any big indicator. It is a good visual view of divergence though.
