That was nice, I happened to catch that. I Need to go get a life and trade mainly london instead of staring at screen 24/7 but chart time is valuable.

Hi Tony,

With regards to what we spoke about earlier, oanda is a 4 digit broker?

i dont know if its just luck but, when you get 100 pips is that 5 digit or 4, because if its 5 I must be the luckiest guy in the world bagging 100 4 digit pips sometimes. Thats what I have been going for.

a pip is 1 point of the lowest denomination on a 4 pip broker and 10 points of the lowest denomination on the 5 pip broker

Guys, there is only one thing that will make a difference between success and failure with this system.

We have to eliminate the chances entering on false breakouts, just like in the e.g.


For the moment, I use these rules and settings:

1. Trading after 3 am est. time
2. Trading in the minutes following major news
3. Trading in the minutes following major speeches
4. Trading at psychological, support and resistance level


False breakout:

in the days to come, I will help isolating these false breakouts by analyzing their properties and settings and posting examples here. feel free to contribute in finding them

doesn't it feel good to notice that your account isn't reducing anymore? I lived it. I used to lose money over this and at some point of time you find stabilization and then you know that you can make it. When you pass 2 months of frequent normal trading and you notice your account has not moved, you are very close for making it. Once you reach this level something else might occur and it happened to me, so be aware. You will gain confidence and your performance might get affected by it. There is a proverb that says that "a human is the most tempted to abandon or fail when he is the closest to success." or something like that. anyways keep up the good work !

Nice thread Tony.....

I have finally read through the entire thread..now I will follow along and see what I can figure out that will work with my schedule....I have been trading for 4yrs and for some reason your naked indicator trading approach made sense to me, as I know indicators are just showing what has happened in the past...so great job and I wish you much success....

Good Pipping,

Here's a potential trade that would have turned into a big winner. I decided against taking this trade because there was a little too much movement prior to the setup. I like flat lines with 2-3 pip range max prior to a potential setup.

Short @ 1.6699. Decided to hold for more than 20 pips. Placed a stop at 1.6700. It got hit before turning back down. Arghhh!

sick action entering on daily support and resistance levels is a win-win situation with my trading system
unfortunately, these type of support levels on a daily chart are broken only a few times per year. I could count them one hand.... from where the importance of being a full-time dedicated trader.
