Are you using some sort of EA to mark your entries with the arrows and lines and if you are can you share it.

I am not really awake yet either.

Right now: I have it programmed: BE 2
BE Profit 2
Jumping stop True
Jumping Stop Pip 2
Add BE Talse
Jump After BE only True
Partial Close True
Close Lots 0.2
Preserve Lots 0.2
Add Missing Stop Loss 20 or whatever
Add missing Profit 10 or whatever

It will put the stop loss and profit in right away but still skive off the pips as the market goes for your ten pips profit.

And I've had no coffee yet....
Is a trade manager ea that scales out a trade at preset levels.

Great for penny and dime accounts but will be interested to see how one does with standard lots.

5 lots traded on a trade for +10 pips

1 lot at +2 = $20
1 lot at +4 = $40
1 lot at +6 = $60
1 lot at +8 = $80
1 lot at +10 = $100

Total net = $300

SL at -20 with 5 lots = $1000

You had better have some real FAITH in your trading plan and even more Faith in your money source.

Trades this morning are OK. All pairs in downtrend and looking short side. Goals easily achieved.

Regards.

Six trades. Six wins. +30. 1st day with no losses.

Also my 1st day trading renko pairs, mainly because their correlation looked so much better than the C4 pairs today.

Things happened very fast too! 2 trades lasted less than one minute whilst the other four took more than one minute!

Had to control my trigger finger from setting off more charges after these successful explosions

A massive achievement for me !!!

Will stop now.

Have a good w/e folks.

Hi Edgewood,

I have loaded the indicators from post 1 into my fxpro mt4 platform, when I go to navigator the indicators are not listed, if I try to reload them but it tells me they are already loaded. I have turned the platform on and off to load them with no luck. What can i do to get your indicators working ? thanks

If you saved them and then copy and pasted into the MT4 (experts, indicators) and then reboot, they should be in navigator under 'custom indicators'.

A friendly advice...when you find a new thread...you have to start reading it from the 1st page...not the last page
You will NEVER understand this strategy if you don't do this...

On the "One Brick Burn-job"

Seriously...Each time I was with the trend waited for the Signal Brick to close then entered...but each time I closed it out because a new signal Closed in the opposite direction.

First set of trades with c4. I highlighted the areas I took, ey for 18 or so, au for 6.5 and eur/gbp for .7 exited with market like a moron would have been worth 4.5. Still need to work on my exits.

At first glance I thought this was just another bum scalping deal but once I got to edges screenshots I saw what I was doing wrong and it looks like a few people were doing the same. I thought you needed to get the cross of the ma for entry but catching the cross's next candle at the right time was what needs to be done. For some reason I never really get the
rules until I see them in action for any strategy. great 1.5 hours so Ill look for another 3 hours see if I can find some more.

Great looking stuff edge

I have to say, each day's trades increases my confidence. I can see how both C4 and Nitro would be almost automatic for Edge, and soon will be for me as well. The more trades I take, the better both my understanding and the results. Edge is right on the money - repeat repeat repeat.

I trade presently on TOS and have no clue how to post charts from there, however I will be switching to a M4 broker next week and will begin posting trades then.

The week is over for me, everyone have a relaxing and great weekend!

(on C4) but the PA wasn't right. the "next candle" was lower priced than the one that gave the buy.

i didn't take it. will wait for the next sell (hope it won't be oversold by then...)

Not by themselves.

Big picture would have to confirm a turn north.
