Well friends, this is it.
The year is at an end -- and I have learned a lot from all of you!
Especially you, Harold.
Hopefully 2008 was a good one for you, and as profitable as you had hoped.
I sincerely wish prosperity and health for you and all my friends here at FF in 2009.
Happy new year to you!

Hi Harold

I've been quietly observing and following the Key to the Mint trades for all these months (it's doing great!), so I thought I'd just post a chart now.

I think a mint trade just happened on both the GBPUSD and EURUSD. I took the EURUSD one - chart below. I believe the 1-2-3 setup is correct?

Cheers!
Eric

Well, the trade I mentioned happened yesterday. The previous candle was a bullish one, but the MAs and the RSI on the daily hadn't yet changed. Take a look below at the Data Window.

Very Nice fxpivots
Could you or for that matter anybody answer this for me.
When looking to put your S/R lines on the 5m charts do you
go to say the 1hr chart and draw S/R lines

and does anybody put say a 150 or 200 sma on there charts.

thanks

Since key to the mint trades from the 5 min chart the S/R lines are determined on the 5 min charts. As for 150 or 200 ma's, Harold's system does not use them, only uses 5 ema close and 8 ema open. I have a 200 ema on my charts, but that is a personal quirk, not necessary to trade the key to the mint.
