Hi Tmac,

Sure sounds impressive...Do you use SMA or EMA?

Any tips on understanding/trading the 5?

Cheers

Tiki I scalp the hell out of this market with the 5MA for a living and do very well

you are on the right path, those that look for the homerun 50 and 100 pip trades will never make as much as a good scalper

76 winners in a row is my record and a newbie I taught my syatem to had 46 his first week

the 5ma is the sweet spot

Tiki, just wondering...

Have you done a back test of TT5 during the summer months over the years??

If ever there was a period that it would struggle it would be during protracted times of low volatility. Or sometimes things get whipsaw-ry. Maybe it will help?

The problem with backtesting on TT5 is that the 5 ema moves.... and so even though you see price touch the 5 ema... you don't necessarily know where the 5 ema was during the whole time of the candle....

What back testing I did was simple... just look at what happenes when price gets out to the last band.... it is time to trade....

No I have not paid much attentin to the summer time... though I know it is slower time... likle not to be as many trade opportunities.... I think that might be true with many systems.... so I just WAIT....

Yes I have gone back on many pairs as far as MT4 will let me....

Hi Tiki,

Still not sure how you set up those bands and and or what indiactor they are?
Do they act as a percentage of the 5ema or are the fixed amount asif adding levels on the 5ema? If thats the case you would you need to adjust the levels for different Pairs due to volatitlity/daily range?

cheers

Hey Tiki!

That one was really tough!! OK, you stuck to your plan and the GJ is notorious for retracements, but really that downward move had momentum like hellhounds!

Happy you made it in the retracement there - now keep your fingers crossed that the downward move finds some continuation... I need some pips down there!!

Ciao!

Well done Tiki,
I missed this one (and G/U), I am in both A/U and U/J but at slightly worse prices than you, and only for the 50pips rather than my usual 100.

Good luck to us both,
Ian

YES without a doubt GBP/JPY is my favorite to trade.... it moves so far so fast sometimes....

But today although I see the downward you are talking about.... it's been flat for days now... I just didn't think it will go so far and then stay down... The big head and shoulders has done itself out now on this pair.... now I think it just wanders with no real direction.... just drifting where the wind pushes it...

And truth is too... it was hitting almost to the 3 tunnel line... when GBP/JPY is like that... I don't think... just trade it .... !! I love it when I happen to be home at those moments... !!! you know all that thinking stuff can really get you into trouble !!!

YES... GBP/JPY so often retraces to 50%.... especially on long candle days... this is an important point... it is the crux of TT5 system !!!!!!!!

I also liked the look of AUD/USD today... price rarely gets this far away from the 5 ema on this pair.... and also you see todays candle has some gap away from the 5 ema..... I think it has to come back some... tomorrow the 5 ema comes up a bit... and maybe price comes down to touch the 5 ema...

I hope a winner... !!

Yes that move down was really FAST.... and that is something else I watch... ! When it moves so fast like that... it often comes right back just as fast... !!! Got to be ready to go on it.... it was in the zone... ! Just make the trade when it's so far away from the 5 ema....!!!

Especially on U/J... I think 50 pips is better... daily candles on this pair just are never very long... today was a long one... extra long.... and that's main reason I traded here...

I'll stick to my 50 pips !!!
