HI CTGUY,

Thanks for sharing this system to me, please let me know if your disappointed about me sharing it (I don't know whats the harm, it could only get better with several heads working on the strategy).

BTW, i was all drunk and asleep and missed today's big dog, but hey im very happy i already had sell positions over EURUSD, AUDUSD, GBPUSD, NZDUSD and a buy over USDCHF looking at the 4hour trend early when market starts.

NZDUSD = +77
GBPUSD = +84
AUDUSD = +89
EURUSD = +161
USDCHF = +35
Total of around +460pips today.
Excellent trading... thanks for sharing with us. It's traders like you that inspire others. Keep up the excellent work and postings here

This is the first day I used the " 7am-9am Big Dog USD Breakout Strategy" and had to use a shorten verus "7am - 8:15am" and still made 69 pips (1.7764 to 1.7695). I need to change my schedule!

Why not enter a market buy and market sell at 10am, or whatever time you are using, enter a stop loss for both trades? Sometimes you will come out better than using stop orders for entering, sometimes not - at least you would not have to use the high/low indicator. I think either method is as good as the other and should work well during NFP announcement tomorrow.

NFP is probably going to release much earlier than the 9am .... so maybe we need to shift to 6-8am nyc on NFP,

I think much more likely to get whipsawed out if enter the trades before the announcement. Better to wait to after the announcement and wait for the price to stall, sometime between 8:45 and 9:15 EST.

Guys,

If you have questions, the best guy to ask is CTGUY, more than me. Ive just used what he taught me and as you can see from his signature. He is the successful mentor of me.

He has real experience on this breakout strategy and works with astronomical lots like 50-100lots at a time using this.

He also has something better in store that he will announce on his own will and im desperately waiting on it.

Good luck all and if your unsure of tomorrow, the best Idea would be to skip NFP and work the next week.

Good NFP = USD on uptrend all month , as i believe
Bad NFP = USD on downtrend all month.

Guys, Just a word 2 you all.

Sharing strategies or systems, isn't going to change the forex market, even if 100,000 people know of a strategy or system isn't going to change anything in forex,

Forex is so big, its bigger than stocks, commodities, options, shares or even bigger than the biggest Las Vegas casinos,

I only wished that new and experience people alike learn a profitable strategy and not be discouraged of losses following the 1000's of lying indicators,

Please share on this forum if you have a good strategy, markets not going to change from 100,000 people knowing your strategy, it will only get much better.

CTGUY is a success in this industry and also an inspiration, most could only hope we can be in his leauge.

Best wishes all

Is there an indicator similia to the ant-GU Breakout.ex4 that shows + - 5 pips above or below the High/Low for this system? I am actually very happy with ant-Gu indicator however trading with many pairs is kinda time consuming when we put our orders some point higher or lower oh the H/L point.

Today, i had a few trades hit both buy and sells. then retrace. If i had added 5 pips to the buy and sell price, I would be in the positives today, as well as put in a trailing stop, a few currencies really had a good drop today.

It would also be nice if it could stop deleting everything off the chart when it is placed on chart...

This seems to be a very easy system for an ea. is there anyone out there that can do this? seems very straight forward.

like sonic's template - good job very good visual

Making an EA for this isn't really a huge problem, but it'd be tied to a specific range.

I'm trying to come up with a universal time-based range-breakout EA so I don't have to code a new EA for each market. (London, New York, Tokyo, etc).

thanks for the input RR. Can't you just set a True/False for each session. if you only want the US breakout then set false to other sessions and so on. shouldn't that take care of it? but then you would run into the problem of how long the trade should go before you cancel it out.

ie: trade pending from US open and hasn't triggered until Asian session open. would US signal still be valid? I could see a problem there

hi dznmrd, Not everyone can do this,many do for money while some don't even bother u make money or not.It only those with the GIFT OF GIVING from GOD that can do by sharing what they have cos they have the passion,love and they are always happy in sharing with people to be able to make money, to earn a living. Just imagine what u did dznmrd, someone share this system with u and u quickly share also with people not even care what will be the consequences, that is the gift am talking about and not excluding those that has contribute also, it been great of u guys (Sonic, bull etc). it will be great also if RR can come on with an EA too, that is another guy that love to share. Thanks. Nerry.
