Been watching this thread for a bit.

I have also been using the original template and watching price.

Last night took my first trade sold GBPCHF and made 23 pips.

Thanks!

Has anyone gone live with this? I want to know what the x50 is like with a broker. On the demo I can pull hundreds in on the hour, I'm going to go live after I break my demo goal.

Hi demundus

Yes, I trade it live - have done so for some time now. I only trade for 2 hours or so when Europe opens and there are no broker problems. Can't imagine why there should be. It's a great strategy, thanks to CanuckCT

But I can't make hundreds of pips. How do you do that? Regards.

Hello demundus,

Attached is the mq4 file. I also noticed the signal was coming a bit late. If you can fix this, would be great.

Cheers

CanukCT,

I've found an error in the EA, it seems the motion for buy comes almost 1 to 2 candles too late based on your system. Once again I'm hoping you post the mq4 file sometime soon so we can all help improve on this amazing system.

Thanks!

Well I love trading stocks, and Forex is new to me, I'm a big news guy and big on common sense. Lately, the EURUSD is on an inflation high, and inversely the USDJPY is on the short. I usually never trade these pairs but they are very volatile, even during dead hours. Some of this i will admit is luck, however I've long'd EURUSD before I go to sleep every night for the past 4 nights to gain about 400ish pips. This morning I lost 35 doing it, so I'm done with that for now, When I wake up, I short the USDJPY for a few hours and ride the fall on the closing bell. I'll have to find a new trend soon though, the dollar is starting to hold now due to Ambac, etc; Just grab some news, trust this EA, and dive in!

To elaborate,

Basically I stay up till absurd hours doing homework or whatever, basically PST except I live on the east coast, thats how my schedule works. So I can sort of monitor the Asian session for a little bit and see which way it probably will go, I obviously don't dive in head first but there is a whole lot of risk considering forex can go any way at any time with no warning. I took some screenshots of the past few days on the 30M graph, this isn't how I usually trade, it's just to show you the trend (and my luck).

Hey there,
I'll be back in May.
Check post #244....it's the source code for the indicator. You can edit the expiration date. Search for 2008 and change it to 2028. Twenty years should be enough.
Cheers

Can you post the template and indicators for your chart.

Thank you

This guy has far too much time on his hands. I've been busy and haven't been here much. Tax time. I log in today to post a message and I stumble onto this private message for TweeddleDumb. I have never promoted anything, yet I'm specifically referred to the section about "promotion". I guess clicking to another site from FF qualifies as promotion and does not "foster a healthy trading environment". Does anyone else think this is very silly?

It's a blog spot. What a nerd, he needs something else to do with his time. I'm not sure what you're asking for matrix, can you be more specific? I use Canuk's system and EA.

Sorry, I thought you knew what an Indicator and a Template was.
Wasn't sure what the Arrow indicator and one of the other ones was on your chart and where to get them. It's Ok if you have a little retard in you, it's not your fault you were born that way. I know it must be hard for you come to terms with it but it's Ok you've got death lurking around you soon. I feel sad for you now, and don't get upset when you hear others around you call you nerd, goof, fag, queer, as*hole, fu*khead, etc..like family and friends because they just don't understand your condition. Take it easy

Hey Matrix!

How have you been? Guess there is a little misunderstanding arising between you and demundus, who is not a great friend of making his texts readable!
But in the first sentence, he is referring to the infration that CanuckCT received from the mod here - and then in the second part, he is "not understanding what you exactly meant". So he was NOT insulting you in any way here, he just answered in the shortest possible way to two completely different posts and topics!
So - let there be love! Hehehe! and maybe you can just take off you post, my friend!

Have a nice weekend, both of you!
Ciao!
