A chart to further expand on the idea....I'm sure as I look at this I will find situations where getting out above/below the 8sma will seem to be a bad idea....Therein lies the problem...

If you were going to use something like crossing a MA to exit...I would suggest the entore bare close on the other side of the MA...high and low included. Combine that with moving your stops based on pullbacks get you some nice moves....but I think there are better approaches to closing a trade.

I personally don't think TK has anything at to prove. TK's been generous enough to share and teach a proven profitable method. Everyone should just take what you can from TK's guidance.

For those of you yelling 'SCAM', so what! Like I said. Take what you can from this method and move on if worse comes to worse. jmho

thx,

That is certainly one way to look at it. TK's system can be what one decides is the type of trading they want to do as it is a great entry idea. Question is do you want to use it as a momentum based trade or use it as refined entries for a longer hold time. For me I'm looking at it as more of a momentum type of trading setup, so waiting for the entire bar closing above/below the 8sma would go against my thought process...I think I would use S/R, pivots etc, before I would trade the 2M chart that way.

Of course I want to milk it for as much as I can so from a momentum standpoint I am studying the viability of using the 8sma as a way to alert me that momentum is dying. If price stays on my side of the 8sma then I have momentum on my side. Thanks for the input, it is much appreciated. I still have much to learn.....

Let's keep some debate going over exits. I'll be watching the 8ma a bit closing next week...I've been ignoring it so far.

Last chart, this one the EU...Obviously if these exits worked like this all the time then it would be a no brainer, but of course we all know that won't happen...

Are you looking for exit only as the 8ma crosses the Candles?

Is that 8ma on the Ed2 template?

You could also look for a candle eats candle in the opposite direction for a exit point.

Looking for a bull candle to close above the 8sma when I am in a short trade and a bear candle to close below the 8sma when in a long trade....This is purely mechanical and only something I am testing right now.

The 8sma is in ED2 but not referred to for exits. I thought it would be appropriate as the idea keeps with the price action and MA aspect of the strategy. Remember, this is only an idea at this point. I am really hoping many eyes can help confirm or refute this as a viable exit strategy or maybe the basis for one...

None of us are gifted with the benefit of foresight and we do not know TKs ultimate intentions, I was only expressing an opinion. But I do agree that we should keep this thread positive and continue to learn from everyone here. It would be a real shame for this to turn out like FX Prime. Personally, I have never been the victim of a scam (cos I'm so miserable) and I have no problem with TK being paid for his time and efforts. Just get a bit whiffy when people can't accept the probability that maybe its more for the wallet than it is from the heart.

Apologies Lillise if I was misunderstood. I am aware that English is not your monther tongue, it was the sarcasm I was referring to. Well done for all your previous predictions. You were right on all counts.

Agreed. This is from my earlier post on the subject. I think at this point candle eats candle will trump all else...

TK seems to use straight price action coupled with a session target of 50 pips. Move stop to BE after 15 to 20 pips profit, and always considering S/R. A gimme exit is "bull eats bear" and vice versa if it is opposite the direction of your current position. This makes the most sense to me so far.

Here is something I have been looking at and has been fairly reliable at catching most of the move. Use a MTF 5 minute SAR .002, .2 and let it be your moving stop for a 2 min chart.

Here is a screen shot.
and the indicator I coded last week.

Hi, After looking at all the links supplied by Lill I can't help but feel that should TK ever try to sell the system he would have very few customers as it is readily available free. As far as the charity donations are concerned, there are plenty of worthwhile charities in any town, just give something to them, problem solved. All the best for the new year PS does anybody know why this post is all squashed together ? and how do I get it spaced as written ?

Enough people.
If any of you have any doubts about TK or have not learned a thing from him, then what the @#$ are you doing on the thread still????????????????????????
Do you not have trades to manage?????????????????????????????????????????
Do you not have a system of your own?????????????????????????????????????
Are you looking for someone to trade your account for you??????????????????
Always wanting something for nothing???????????????????????????????????
I heard there is a system you can can purchase for $2,300 if you attend a seminar and you get to pay extra for a monthly data feed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH Sorry that is not for free

Are any of you skeptics trading TK's method exactly to his rules?
If not then don't question it?

Whether TK does choose to profit from this who cares? Has he not provided enough for you to take it and run on your own?

JESUS......................

Thank you TK, you have enhanced my trading tremendously.

PS..Thanks Canuck for all your input and knowledge you have shared hear and elsewhere.

PSS... Sorry to the rest of you, just had to clear my head of all the crap that has been building up

Many profits to all in 2009!!!!!!!!
