minimum daily average range reach 100 pip--- useful to set your target.
00 - 50 levels --useful support and resistance levels and targets/stops

some of my basic rules
A. ONE CHART
B. ONE CURRENCY PAIR
C. ONE TIME FRAME
D. ENTRY ON 00 OR 50 LEVEL
E. ONE TRADING SESSION UK( WHICH END IN PART OF NY SESSION)
F. ONE SET OF SIMPLE SET OF RULES (SHOULD BE SHORT NOT COMPLICATED)
G. FOLLOW THE RULES CONSISTENTLY
H. DON'T USED TOOL THAT ARE SUBJECTIVE OR HAS AMBIGUITY (example trend lines -- this could be drawn in so many ways -- or enter a trade before the candle close)

NOTE: IF YOU HAVE AND EDGE( METHOD, SYSTEM , TRADING PLAN)
SEE HOW CONSISTENT IT IS OVER 100 TRADES (DEMO ACCOUNT REAL LIVE TRADE) DO YOUR HOME WORK DON'T BE LAZY . IF YOU WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOREX TRADE YOU MUST PUT IN HARD WORK TESTING AND TESTING.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE GOOD SYSTEMS BUT THEY FAIL TO TEST IT LIVE OVER 100 TRADES ( THE GIVE UP AFTER ONE BAD TRADE)

Forex is never or will ever work on what you think-- It is all about on your application of what the charts are telling you.

A.Look at your edge (I mean you trading style- method- system -plan etc)
B.This was high probability trade with minimal risk (50 pips) stop
C. I like to enter trade on 00 or 50 levels
D. look at chart I label it -- res = some form or resistance ( I mean the bands + 00 and 50 level)

side note -- I always preach- one chart -one time frame one currency pair - one trading session (uk--3am-12pm NY time)
study this currency pair -- observe it movements week after week -- It will do the same thing over and over and over (90% of the time)

Things like
A.daily high low range --
B.move in one direction all week come Friday --( what you expect to happen)
C. when its in a range for a day of 2 (100 -150 pips range -- expect the next days 200 + pips movements

I hope this will help

I don't claim to know it all -- This is what I observed and how I trade

Hello Zamanib,

I have been reading over your recent posts here about the 00 and 50 level on GU. Actually interesting, it does respect those lines.

Two Questions though,

(1) Do you place a trade after price hit the 00 or 50 lines OR do you usually wait for the retracement ( within the 00 and 50 levels) and wait for the PA to tell you that the retracement is over so that you can go ahead with placing a trade? I can see that retracements often occurs when price is close those lines and therefore the above question.

(2) If price is ranging around 15-35 pips within a 00 and 50 level, do you wait for a break within the above or below 00-50 levels or do you wait for a breakout from the ranging 15-35 pips?

Thanks for sharing a part of your trading system. I appreciate it.

If you cannot see what it is telling --- 2 things---
1. keep far away from forex
2. you need training find a mentor-- (It will save time money and grievance)

I try not to post indicators -- Fxlion post it here already go back you will find it
Also I talk about the 21 SMA
You must develop your own way of trading all the indicators are this forum.
Lots of home work to do- test test test what work best out of every 100 trades -- follow the same rules every time -- 60-80% correct system will earn you money- But you must welling to put in the time to test 100 live trades (demo) not back test -- you physically doing the live trade-- write down your result-- and the rules as you go along--

I did a manual test-- (this is not how I trade) this is example what I am talking about.

Rules --1. at 00 am NY time 2. buy at(nearest) 00 or 50 levels above the open price at 00.00 am NY time.
3. Sell at (nearest) 00 or 50 levels below the open price at 00.00 am NY time
4. 50 pips stop lost and trade in the opposite direction ( mean if buy at 15400 and went to 15350 close trade and open sell at 15350)
I put a chart to make it more clear.

Result after 100 trades-- from May 12th 2010 -- July 16th 2010

83 out of 100 trade were win (from 20 pips to 245 pips)
or
68 out of 100 trade were wins (from 30 pips to 245 pips)
or
61 out of 100 trades were wins (from 40 pips to 245 pips)
or
53 out of 100 trades were wins (from 50 pips to 245 pips)

Total(-pips) stop out 17 trades (17* -50) - 850 pips
Total(+ pips) 87 wining trades 6782 pips

I will upload a spread sheet -- I did not do it yet-- soon

some one may look at this stupid way of trading is looser -- the number said other wise. Please what ever system you have test it and see.
The statistic is important.
