DislikedSome advice:
Don't enter a trade in the direction of COG (center line) when the regression bands are very narrow (close together , small bandwidth).
That's all.

DislikedThanks. That surprises me. I thought narrow bands meant steeper slope and therefore a greater momentum or something like that. Isn't when there is the largest possible bandwith that the lines are flat and we can anticipate a reversal in trend?

DislikedThe regression bands are very close with a very high angle of the COG slope and a very small bandwidth before a flat trend or a reversal occurs.
An entry in the direction of the COG when the angle of the COG slope is very high can result in a loss.
Take an entry in the direction of the COG when the angle of the COG slope is small at the start of a new trend and not near the end of the trend.

DislikedWhat was your stop loss set to for these losing trades? With the cog indicator, it's not the indicator that wipes you out, it's about the stop loss you use, or lack thereof. Even a 50 pip stop loss will allow you to accumulate more wins than losses using cog.
I had the same problem, until I started using tighter stops, obeyed them, and started taking profit more regularly.Ignored
