My indicators are saying short the cable and long the euro.
I am also confused so I am going to sit out.
I guess you wouldn`t have a better indicator than EurGbp...lol

Frankly I can't see how your indicators would say otherwise after Euro's run up and Cable's run down, no?
I need to put up stop losses.

could you please elaborate on that im just trying to understand how EOhaters and your systems work.

thanks
There is double bottom on h1 and we closed bullish.. I did'nt take the long because of the m15 tl and the 50sma that was still holding. I actually went short off the 50sma and the tl and closed for a quick 30 pips. I may long if the low of the last hour bar is not taken out..

Exactly - usually the two move in the same direction but I am confused as to why they are moving in opposite directions.

ahh cool because i was thinking the same re-test of trendline and 50sma on top hsould hold it down.

Here is an updated m15...
You can see we bounced off the tl and went down about 60 pips. If we don't get below 4781, this could be a good long..

The driving down to -1.4799+ completed the 'test and re-test' of the upward sloping pitchfork on the 5-min, 15-min time frame. The -1.4780~99+ must not break in order to for the up trend to resume. Longs should be out on downside break of the said levels

hey, can i just ask. I know that you and eohater use similar but slightly different systems, if you dont mind me asking what was the biggest number of loosing trades in the row and what was your biggest drawdown?

and just one more question actually does this system perform better now in more vilatile times or before?

OK you rocket scientists - here is a sure-thing system

When it goes up a lot - short it

When it goes down a lot - long it

I have now made x zillion trades over the last few weeks using this incredibly complex system which took me 4 decades to learn

I have incorporated it in a transparent excel macro and I will sell it to you for only $99.99 if you apply today

Please note: this system may cause gout;apoplexy; uncontrollable wind; hunched back and teeth grinding leading to expensive dental bills

You are responsible for buying the computer and software to run it on

Failing to eat or drink for 6 weeks while using this system may result in divorce or death or compulsory mental health treatment

Regarding drawdown and losing trades, I have not more than two losing trades in a row using this system in a while, but anything is possible. The max drawdown I allow is about 4% under normal circumstances but I may allow up to about 10% depending on the type of trade that I take.

This system works for me all year round. The key thing to remember is that the main driver of the system is price action.

I am thinking that the key level to break below now is .4800, I think if we break that it is headed for a subtantial drop, but I could be wrong I did not expect it to go up over night like it did either, but I guess if this was easy everyone would be doing it.
