Carlene, a couple questions about the retracement trades...
Hello! I draw a fib from the low to the high or high to the low for the day (from Asia, London or US) (I do not draw a fib from the recent move - very important). If price is in the 0 - 23.6% area then I take the trade back to the the 23.6% and beyond, but if price in your picture already made its move back towards the 23.6% for the day (at about 11:00),so then I look for another pair to trade. By the way the audusd that I lost the 50 pips yesterday from the other days trade would have paid me. It went 52 pips then reversed. Missed it be 2 pips.

Here are two indicators I made to show the slope of the Stochastic indicator.

The threshold value for the slope is a value between 0.0 and 1.0. As the slope you see varies with the height of the chart, you will have to empirically decide what value works for you.

Thanks so much Xaphod for generously supporting us all. I'm liking your version of this slope stochastic more than the one I paid for. Well done and thanks again.

Thanks for stoch slope indicator. I compared this indicator on my chart with Craigs stoch on his chart and they look slightly different.
Any thoughts?

You can try to fine tune the threshold value. If you put the Stochastic Slope Histo.mq4 on the chart you can get the slope calculated for the adjacent bars that are different on the two charts and then set the threshold value accordingly. Make sure you have the same threshold value on both the 'stochastic slope.mq4' and the 'stochastic slope histo.mq4' first.

Hi Delta. The comparison of Craigs chart and Xaphod that you posted shows that in fact Xaphod's set up is "truer" for the CH method. The spots you highlighted, if I'm reading it right, are not traderable and Xaphod's confirm this where as CH's is kinda wrong ... I'm thinking this is right - will stand corrected if so. Good example

That has to do with your browser and forexfactory.com.

I really like this setup...I have spent quite a while fine-tuning it to filter the false breaks of the Tokyo Channel...SUCCESS.

Here's my take on it.

-Darren

Keep up the good work.

You made that gain only taking 23.6 trades or also other methods?
