4H Box Breakout

GBP/JPY finally demolished the 146.75 support level, and the next strong support appears to be in the 142-143 area.

For anyone who got into the Short trade and stayed in, congratulations . And, BTW, can I borrow a peso or two . . . I know you've got it now.

I'm sorry to hear you're unhappy about the thread. I always try to respect the opinions of others, and especially those who share their thoughts and strategies on the thread, but what have you done to contribute to a better thread? In over 4 months of this thread's existence, you've posted twice, and both times it was to complain about clutter.

As far as I'm concerned, there's only two unnecessary posts on this thread . . . yours.



I would really understand if you don't write anymore either . . . in fact, I would appreciate...

i am actually very bearish on gbp/jpy. this level got broken and if you check on weekly chart gbp/jpy looks in clear fundamental down trend.
there is a huge downside to the pair if all goes as i hope.
but we have new government in japan and carry trade kinda dead. so we cannot be completely sure.
i also had very odd idea. if for example we trade Ace system and we have fundamental trend so, do trades in trend direction have higher probability of success?

I'll be testing this out within the next month if everything goes as planned.

But yes, right now it is clearly a downtrend, I have 4 positions open right now, one in GBPJPY, EURGBP, USDCAD at .04 lot size, and EURJPY at .05 lot size, with a total unrealized profit of $480. These lot sizes bring in approx 4 cents a pip

i am actually just watching today. do not trade Fridays, but looks like market finally choose directions. i am waiting for g/j retracement.
I know i know, i shouldn't post this here as it has nothing to do with Ace's system.
However, i feel i want to show these charts to you guys, i'm just so damn proud!
My ego is like flying, high on green pips.



*edit* o'yeah, the black line shows the entry, both positions are short.

My trades were entered on wednesday I think using the original entry rules, not waiting for the JPY holiday to be over. I also do not enter trades friday.

I never manually close a trade, I either let my MA stops catch it, or I let it ride till the last hour., I' trading .04 lot sizes, and have a return of almost 10% return of my account balance for this week alone (account size 5K, profits near $500)

And then some, over the loosing weeks, I only traded GBPJPY, at an average loss of about $20 a trade, lost some 6 times, so that's only around $120, right now I'm trading on 5 pairs, 4 active trades, 4 trades in profit.

and obviously it was not 1 box stop loss. it says a lot!
had you traded 1 box and having so many 2 losses a week, 1 trade would not bring such excellent results.

I Never traded the original exit rule, ever, when I found this entry system, I already had my exit system developed, I just had to tweek it to work flawlessly with this entry system, and it blends beautifully
