Hey thanks, thats a pretty helpful indicator.

Anyway, in response to the question of your previous chart.. Yes, thats a valid entry. Its an entry I'd call trend continuation entries... Work pretty well in follow up entries in trend markets... On a rangy day you would have a good chance to get a breakeven.

I tried it out this morning starting at London open.

1 Loss
1 BE
1 Win

BTW- You gave 0900 GMT as the London open. It's actually 0700 GMT.
Do you really start at 0900?

A handy gadget for this would be a indicator that would show on the screen
-1/3 of the previous candle's body height, and
-the entry price with "short" or "long" (depending on whether previous candle was red or blue) after it if the ema's were right,

in case other conditions were lined up for a trade.
This would make it more feasible to track a number of pairs for entries.

Any programmers able to do this?

Hi baronfei!

Could you please post more charts for better understanding of entry points?
Did you try to trade your system with higher TF?

Try the attached. Only can specify the range from top or bottom when the bar close. No entry alert.

At least something to start with.

baronfei,

The other question I'd like to aks is: when you enter short or long according to your system, do you look at the trend direction in the higher TF?
I mean - no buy wher 1H/4H trend is bearish or it doesn`t matter?

Now this one shows changes below the 0.0001 which MT4 displays to you ... so it might be for the user to verify whether the change is big enough

baronfei -> what do you think should the change in the MACD be at least 0.0001 ????

Also I wouldn't mind to hear the status for June,July since I'm very interested in this method

Please check the signals and entry values for the "smKinetic TrendMode" indicator.

Perhaps you will find also an application for my new "PriceRetracement" indicator.

Very interesting thread.
I also take trades when I have a 5/12 ema (bago) cross on a 30min chart after a closed candle and then wait for a retracement before I enter.

This strategy here looks well formulated and thought through.
I am curious how this thread develops.

I have some questions about the entries

http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/71/longshort.gif

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Is that short ok? The price doesn't retrace 1/3 of the previous bar body.
How about the long entry?

Thanks,
Diez
