Short on the open.

At the end of the month, close it, and reevaluate the new candle that just formed.

Give me a few minutes and I'll post a 30 year backtest on GBPUSD for you.

Dude don't you think I already tried it on all the majors?

It's easy to write.... experiment away.

I am running it as a filter in my backtester with my own system (as I described a few posts ago) but have removed the Ask required to be above/below the current month's opening.

It is a very good filter, best I've seen.


The reality is that you are betting the long term trend continues..... nothing new..... just like Jacko in a way.

hi all,

with due respect, i am challenging a comment in one of the responses, the simplest system with the greatest results that i am aware of is the goji system, for lack of a better name, found at daytrading, on another sight. i think it's baby pips.

have a good one!

Simpler than buying if the previous candle was up, and selling if the previous candle was down?

I just found this thread:
http://forums.babypips.com/show-me-m...tter-name.html

It's not even a month old.... hardly enough of a track record to make any assessment. Maybe somebody or myself with code an EA and backtest it over a few years.

The reason this is a valid filter IMHO is that the NFP has historically given a bias each month, and it looks very good in hindsight back to 1989. T
i was planning to use David's news indicator to backtest the Dibs method using NFP itself as a filter. So if last NFP is up only take longs and vice versa. But after a bad backtest with DIBS i gave up the idea. Did you backtest using the last NFP "up" or "down" too?

thanks in advance.
