Can you please tell me more about the BAT indicator, how have you determined the inputs, and should every pair have the same setting?

As far as i'm concerned The Majors + EURJPY and GBPJPY work very well with the settings of 1/6.

The inputs were derived through extensive back and forward testing + live trading.

Can't really say more than that about it. : )

Effi, what would you say about GBPUSD on H4 as it has broken the resistance?

Thanks

It just completed Phase 1 on H4. (The directional bias is changed to bullish from this point onwards)

However you could have taken trades on H1 which had both P1, P2 and P3 in check. (Post 57: GBPUSD H1 P3)

Sorry guys, call me a retard but I just can't understand PAST Phase 2, it doesn't look clear to me in any way, and I tought the blue or red line had to breach the candle (touching it or passing it) in some of your examples it doesn't do that, they way you draw the pink lines etc etc. Send you IM also.

Thanks in Advance

I was trading the three majors today. I just added EUR/JPY to my charts I was wondering if these would have been valid entrance spots long.

Thanks in advance!

For those of you who are still having problems viewing the pictures:

1. Introduction
2. Chart Setup
3. The Skinny On The Indicator
4. Phase 1
5. Phase 2
6. Phase 3
7. Examples
8. Study Incentive

If you still have problems after this, i can't help you.... (Don't want to)
...well actually i can, in numerous ways in fact, but why should i bother if you're too lazy to solve your own problem. Just shows you don't want it bad enough.

There is always a solution.

I won't answer anymore e-mails of the "i can't see the pictures" type anymore, especially when the resolutions i offer "aren't good enough", so refer to this post or fix your browser. You can't ask someone for a favor, then bargain about it...

On the EU long, I would put my stoploss just below the low at around 1.9515, where have you put yours? Or do you have a hardstop on this one?

Your SL is fine too NowAndLater.

We got hit by the French news on that one, but it didn't break past lows on the release so there is a very good chance we have a resumption.
