I had profits the days I tried "the Jim method". But work takes up time during work hours...

So to kick start this thread again:

I scripted this indicator, that alerts and/or e-mails every XX:01 and XX:31, when defined inside bars are formed between "after" and "before" variables.

Give it a spin... and report insidebars back to the thread
will this show pairs in the indi on one tab?
I have it running but it is showing nothing
I have the default settings on

You should have a label in top right corner. Se example picture.
It alerts you about inside bar on -1 and -2 bar if not "broken".

Can I ask what the difference between the trailstop ea and the Trailing Stop facility already on MT4? Or what does the ea do different to the MT4 Trailing Stop.

BTW, been trading this strategy for over a month now, following the rules and it's really paying off. Thanks Jim!

Thanks Jim for this thread. I've been trying the system for a bout a week and here are my results. Near 76% positive. It's funny all my losses have been when itis near the Daily Pivot or the 89 line. I just have to be more patient

Looking forward to your suprise

5) Am I clear of the DPP and the 89 SMA?

Jim could you explain this a little more
I just took a s/l on G/U and G/J for about 40 pips ouch!

How much clearance should one look for any examples would be great

According to Jim's rules, we need to be careful trading towards the 89 or DPP as price action will in a lot of cases bounce right off them. We're a lot safer trading away from both and trading with the trend. I avoided the temptation on the last EUR/USD set-up this morning but then it busted right through both right down to S1 but this will not happen all of the time.

Good to see you're still about Jim. I have made a few errors over the last couple of days, but all part of the learning process

Jim, thank you once again!
Your system, far and above any other system I've used, has helped me the most. Before I stumbled upon your system, I'd go looking to place a position (and force them), instead of letting the position/set-up come to me. Yeah, I've screwed up several times and hesitated, but the positions where I've come out on top have more than compensated for the few positions that come out losers.

Thanks Jim

All the best,
Algis

Was that right around where the red line is on my screen. Not sure I would have taken it either being so close to the DPP

That's the one! Would have been nice to take alright but rules are rules, wait for the next one. I didn't get the next set-up you got later in the day as the price action from my broker broke below the previous bar.

You are well below the DPP. The DPP is the Magenta line well above your price. The short trade you are looking at would be fine as long as there are 25 pips or so before you hit the M1 mid pivot point. You guys are doing fine.
