If you have been keenly noticing both of my threads, particularly the last trades that we did. From the time that i made my trades to my brokers (NF or InterBankFX) and the actual posting of the trades, there is a difference of around 7 minutes. This time difference makes a lot of difference in the entry time if you are following my trades. Not so much with the trade duration because my trade usually last more than 4 hours even days sometimes unless some unusual events happend that goes against my trades. Some readers have their cellphone hookup in the "Signal thread" and they get instant E-mail notification from the FF, still that is late for 7 minutes. Any suggestions welcome to help you guys improve the delivery of the TRADE CALLS, i am open. Just for information my entries are triggered by the Program(EA) i develop that trades the 4 hours candles with confirmation to the daily. Ill wait for suggestions.
Thanks

you could try a yahoo or hotmail IM grp. IM's from those sites can be forwarded as text also. Do not know if it would be faster, we would have to test it.
For whats its worth..some of you requested my Long Term Trades. It is already Wednesday, i dont know if you still coud pick up some trades from there, i started this Sunday a bit early this week hoping to avoid the NFP on Friday. At the time of this writing i have accumulated a total of 1,618 PIPS and hoping that most of the trends will not change till Friday.

Trader101 - you are doing an excellent job! One question I have - would it be possible for you to post your long term trades as soon as you enter them but post them the way you have been posting them so not so much work for you? I would really appreciate it as I am mostly following your long term trades at the moment. Thanks for all you do!!
Trades 10-21 is a disaster. I could have settled for some small profit of 100 pips in the early hours of the morning but i was asleep. Total Loss for that trade is -278 Pips. Perhaps we could still catch some big o ne before Friday.
Hi,
Compared with big profit,today loss is nothing.
Curiously,how much profit/loss will be the limit for one group of orders?For a mini account,what's the minimum fund will be perfect to trade all your signals?maybe 500usd ok.(1 mini lot margin 25usd)

When I started, i start with miniaccount of 5k at 400:1 leverage, normally we trade (1set) 14 currencies, the margin is $ 350 for 0.1 lot trading. Usable margin would be 4,650. My typical stop loss would be between $300 - 500. If we reached this negative number I become agitated because the trade is against us at this number. My typical TP is between $250 - 350 which is almost translated to same number of pips. We trade in a 4 hour candles, if TP is attained b4 the completion of the current candle, the next trade will be at the beginning of the next candle. On a typical week i can make about 10 sets of trade, on average i can make a hit of 8 and a loss of 2 sets. If we maintain a $300 per set of trade X 8 that would be $2400 on a 0.1 lot trades. Less the 2 losses which is 600.00 we can still make a profit of $1800 a week. This is the theory behind those trades. Of course, that is besides the Long term trades that i am making on a diff broker. The Long Term is also 0.1 lot trades on a good week i could catch 2000 pips a week. Hope this explanation helps.
I am hesistant to give trade signal now because we might not be able to finish the trade before 8:30 tommorrow. Our trade will toss and turn by the NFP report at 8:30. As they say.. its is better not to trade than make a bad trade.
I just have a question about your system. You have a buy for the GBP/JPY and a sell for the EUR/JPY.
Don't those two usually go in the same direction? Right now the GBP/JPY is doing well and the EUR/JPY is going against your signal.

I hate to say this but i think you are right.. That is the problem when you rely on the EA. It interpret just the signal, no correlation at all. I realy have to do it manually again and just throw this EA program away. I will wait for this to at least turn positive and then i have to redo the trade by tommorrow. This time manually.

Which one is it, give me the specific post number..
To ZeeJay,
I go to all the chart individually, sometimes i let the EA analyze and open the trades for me.
