Hi tony

Look for C4 here at FF. I think it is your style. Maybe the renko charts will do mutch more for your trading.

the bigger the bar, the better the volatility and opportunity to let it ride... this one was small... still profited

Hi Tony:
Thanks for your posts, I have a question, on the last post I didn't see a 10 pip candle move like you describe in your updated rules. If it's there and I just missed it, I apologize. It's good to have you back and please keep posting, your success is enjoyable to watch.

yea sometimes, out of impatience I settle down for a 5+ pip candle.... but it isn't as effective ! it's better to wait for a bigger fish

you have to trade after 3am est... London open, I will get a 1.8 pip spread on GBP/USD.... not bad for the volatility compared to EUR/USD

you can still trade the EUR... but in GBP you see 20 pips candles sometimes out of nowhere, and these are 5 sec candles imagine

Hi Tony,

First of all I would like to thank you for dedicating the time to share your expertise with others. Your systems seem very original and you are nice enough to share them.

Are you currently trading the GBP/USD only? And I was curious as to how good your system has been for all these months, given that you first started using it almost half a year ago? Have you hit rough patches? (backtesting it manually on a 5 second chart would be damn near impossible going so far back, so your experience could be telling)

Also, I read up on your 5L system. Which one has been better? Have you adopted a single strategy by now or are you still using several methods?

Welcome, I have a passion for this because it's my ticket for my way out of ordinary boring life and living. Yes, I have hit rough patches because of impatience... trading when I don't have to, trading when too tired etc and loosing. This method can't be back tested has to be traded manually and that's the beauty of it. You're trading the present with it not the past. 5L is working but central banks ended up showing better results and catching up for losses from the 5 L system. I trade this method now.
