The art of Trading MAs

Hi,
Did anyone have a valid trade in the past hours ?
I had a good one on EG 30M charts this morning.
I took only 17 pips because I was away from my PC.
Good luck on the US session.

Hello Endroute. Thanks for the system. Do you trade this strategy on live trading(demo/real account)? This is because i see you have faith in it but while backtesting it with vhandstrade simulator, I found that the cog indicator repaints too much. I am skeptical about the cog indicator. Thanks and waiting for your reply.

Wahnone

wahnhoe read the thread it have been alot of talk about the repainting of this indicator.


best regards

no luck on my end with this system. Just a bunch of losses on the 15 .
Actually, I would do better with all the signals going the other way!

One bad week and everyone give up?
Following endroute's pairs & TFs, GU 1H was the winner of this week.
The EAs didn't take the trade for me, but I hope some of you took it manually.
Have a nice weekend,
Dani M.

Well, I thought there would be more action and a higher hit rate.
Everthing I took (but I didn't follow the yellows to the extreme) went the other way.
I mean, just throwing a bunch of ma 's with parobolic isnt going to be enough. I was looking for the cog settings to filter seems like a crutch more than a filter. \

That is why people fail...... no stamina...... a few losses and off to the wizard for a new system.
oh yeah the other thing .. letting EAs trade for you.

Yes I gave up (on this system) I have plenty of other methods that have higher win rates.

Johndoe trade this for a month or two and please share your results. You sound so keen.

If this is working for Enroute and others then congratulations more power to you!

Personally I am sicking with the methods that made me 140 pips this week not the one that lost me that much.

Take what works for you and throw the rest away.

I'm just insecure about an indicator that says one thing and then does another... Thats just me and I can't trade comfortably knowing that the COG is telling porky pies.

So instead of laughing at the people jumping ship maybe you could shed some light on why we might be failing with this system if you think it's so great.

Otherwise keep your negative wisdom to yourself and let us get on with learning new things (that work)

!!!!

Johndoe you obviously aren't a quitter so please go ahead trade this for 2 months and share your progress with this system

But one thing I agree with you is on the EA's...

I believe we already have EA's in the way everything is computerised for us. But for some this still isn't enough T

hink about the old school traders who had to draw all their charts and moving averages etc by hand and maybe even place their trades by telegram lol.

They must be looking down on us and laughing.

Anyone who wants a computer to trade for them takes what they already have for granted IMO. Yes some people are busy and dont have time to sit at their computer to wait for trades etc etc.

I have an idea... Forget about trading!!! Why don't I program my computer to write a new teeny bopper hit song for me and release it to the world...

Or maybe my computer can draw me some nice art work and I can call myself an artist!

Give me a break... EA's are so half assed it shits me to think theres people out there that are that lazy looking for such a free lunch...

They say trading is an art not a science and I want to be an artist.

Cindy Can u give me a clue or something perhaps start a new thread with your sysrtem (systems ) that made u 140pips ? do what everyone else does on this forum share knowledge and learn from others (pls forgive my spelling im from sweden )


best regards

Jdalfelth seeing as I have only been trading for 1 year I don't feel confident enough to start a thread of my own I won't do that ... maybe one day. But if you're keen to learn what I do PM me and maybe we can chat in the trading week.

I do like sharing knowledge to deserving peple but I don't like the thougt of screaming it to the world in a thread.


Sorry for getting off topic endroute.

Don't get me wrong I think you have hit the nail on the head in your logic of selling the EMA cross high and buying it low I just don't like the COG personally.

But I'm no expert myself

Jdalfelth activate your PM on this forum!

Just want to add... It's a tough gig starting a new thread (I am guessing).

You start it with the best intentions, you want to help people, you want to share a good thing, you want people to be successful.

But if Joe blow reads your thread and loses money then you're Joe Blows worst enemy, you've wasted Joe Blows time and he wants to kill you!!!

Chances are though that Joe Blow never paper traded it, never back tested, and doesn't know the first thing about price action, yet he expected to read your thread follow you simple rules and become a millionaire in less than a year.

If Joe Blow actually made money with your system or method he might thank you but not with the same emotion or energy he showed or felt when he lost.

So be greatful we live in this information age that is the internet and also be thankful for the thread starters on this forum.

Wheather it worked for you or not THEY TRIED.

Blah Blah this is not a get rich quick Biz nor did anyone except the system SELLERS tell you this.

But it can be (if you let it) the answer to your financial freedom if you READ, LISTEN, LEARN, TEST, TRY, EVALUATE, LEARN AGAIN and repeat until you get it and find something that WORKS.

Don't be a fool - Be greatful for this free pool of information and use it wisely and if you fail IT'S YOUR FAULT FOR NOT BEING BETTER INFORMED.

Trade well

Cindy It is done it is activated.

Also start a new thread hmmmmm i dont know i think people here in general is good. And retards and idiots are everywhere many have typoed in a risk disclaimer for the people that know better. Also dont be so afraid of have some enymys it is also a sign of success i think the most rich and sucessfull people have alot of enemys that a jelaous of them and there success i have some enemys it is natural some people just dont go together.


Best regards

Hey I'm not claiming to be rich or successful nor do I feel that people that don't know any better are idiots or "retards". I just think they may be desperate for a quick fix. Hey I've been there myself!

I just don't think this forum needs athread by little old me. Theres enough good threads and information on here already and until I feel I can do better Mr C will just sit on thesidelines!

The way I trade is basically from a mixture of everything I've learned on here anyway.

Hi endroute,
Hope you are fine.
You mentioned before that when price crosses the golden COG line, it is a good opportunity to wait for the price to cross back and get in.
Now, do you use pending orders, or just set an alert and waits the candle crossing back to close before taking a trade ?

Hmmm.... whre is everybody??? did everybody read the first page???? endrote says "if you don't like the system don't trade it, if you have snide comments I don't want to hear them, if you want to contribute please do so. I would also expect that everyone be respectful of one another at least on this thread"


by the way yesterday i made 170 pips with this system....

cheers.....

prove it!

Hi Cindy & Lost Angles,
I'm keeping an eye on the same charts as endroute said he trades.
I had no signal in the last few days.
So I tried to trade the price action once it crossed the golden line and moved back in, but I was wipesowed.
I'm interested in seeing your trades lost angles as well.

hi there cindyXXX.... actualy i dont have to prove anything.....
what i'm gonna say is you put endroute system in your Metatrader and use the setting that endroure gave us.. and then whalaaa...... you shall see what i get on USD/CHF EUR/USD and GBP/USD yesterday.....
did you see how pips is coming my way....
and one thing 4 sure you have to follow the rule or else you will get BURN....

i kinda like endroute basic idea of MA crossover, because i had use it for quiet a while.
and i add MA cross over signal from trend follower system created by TheWIcker i edit the MA period to 5 and 13 and i also add RSI (14)

hev a nais dey.....

Hi Lost_Angles,
I checked it again, and I saw your trades on UC and EU. I wouldn't have taken the GU, but the other two are valid successful trades.
You are good.
Dani M.
