there is a new HP laptop that allows 3 x HDMI monitors to be connected. Not sure of the model but I came across it a couple of months ago. It would be what I would buy as my next computer ... I prefer a laptop over desktop nowadays.

I am getting near the end of this software contract (away from home) so hope to do some more vids soon.

In the meantime, I will give you a summary of my trading since opening with dukas. Remember I had almost 2 months of no trading while getting my account open.

I have only managed to trade 14 days but I'm up 42% for this month.

The first 2 days were a little shaky after 2 months out of action but trading a little more than daily target got me back on to my target curve by day 8. Since day 8 I haven't had a losing trade ... in fact I have only needed one trade per day to keep close to the target curve

Thanks for the update stratman. Just wondering if you could post some annotated images of trades (if you took them at the time)? Thanks for your help as always.

I noted that a 60 SMA on H1 can be little different from a 120 SMA on M30, a 240 SMA on M15, a 720 SMA on M5, ecc....

What is the most accurate?

You are quite correct. This is why I prefer to use the 'pipware-charts' ... free indicator from my site (not to be confused with mini-charts). This indicator allow you to see mulitple timeframes with accurate moving average ie sma60 on all the small charts.

I will try but can't make any promises ... for now ... as I hardly get any time to myself these evenings eg it's 9 pm right now and I haven't even looked at a trading platform today yet.

I'm at the end of week 2 of a 3 week stretch (no days off) so you can imagine time to myself is a luxury ... but in a few weeks I will be more able to do pictures and videos.

Hi Rob, I'm adjusting to and having a go at learning your method. One thing that throws me a bit is that I am getting stopped out early and miss bigger runs. In the 15min EU chart below I was using the exit stategy you teach of moving the stop to the openning of the previous candle on the 5min chart. So far it has stopped me out over the last couple of trades. More possible i think with a bit more breathing space. What would you have done or suggest or is this in keeping with your rules. Thanks

Attachment
Sorry to know that you are stopped out early!

Just for discussion, if you have notice a couple of candles earlier, you can see that they are moving up and down almost the same height, If you draw two short parallel lines, you see the market has not decided on which direction to move over the pass two hours or in other words they are moving in consolidation. So when you take a trade within the consolidation zone, your stop loss has to be outside (in this case - above). When the trend is clear, than you can move the stop lose closer.
As a general guide the starting S/L is around 35pips on a M15 time frame as compared to 100pips on a H4 timeframe.

There is a good EA posted on page 124 called 'luktom visual order editor', which you can preset the stop loss, and it will automatically insert into your market order, when a trade is placed.

Fair enough stratman, thanks in advance

I'm also wondering... considering your consistent earnings, if you've thought about running a live video trading room? You could charge a weekly or monthly rate for people to watch you trade and ask questions and so on. Perhaps you could run it for free for a couple of weeks at the start, if you are unsure how it would pan out. After that you could start charging and potentially provide yourself with a steady income stream which would allow you to focus more on trading.

Honestly, I am quite certain that many many people would be interested in watching you trade with such a great equity curve.

Very good idea!
I would be in. Not anything has to come for free.
Of course it would be better if you would be successful all the time, at least most of the time -

Mindsphere and others ...

The current skype room has been very difficult for me as I have not been able to commit myself to time there particularly during this current software contract. I don't like the feeling of letting people down eg ineedcash who has been waiting days for me to go onto skype.

The reality is that the skype room is a place for traders to talk to each other and I am not there enough to add any value. I have stressed that people should not buy the dashboard for the purpose of entering the skype room.

Thinking about a subscription skype room .... it's not likely as people are from so many different time zones and I often may only spend 30 min a day trading ie I stop once my target hit. I also need full concentration so how would I give anyone value for their money?

Also, I will earn enough money from my personal trading so I don't want to tie myself up with a commitment like a skype room ie I don't need to earn money from my fellow traders offering such a service. This is why I have done this all by way of free videos.

Also, I hope to stop selling the dashboard soon as I have recovered a good part of my development cost. Going forware, I am considering making a special indicator for the dukascopy platform for myself ... dilema is ... should I give this new indicator to others for free, or should I charge to help with development? Am I so gracious that I give people a free ride or make money from offering my skills?

Or, will I stop contributing all together and concentrate on my own trading? ie I don't need anything from anyone else? I could also become like Craig Harris and sell what I have learnt as part of a mentor program for more than $5,000 per person .... ie make money from my fellow traders

Maybe I can find some real good win/win that suites my fellow traders and myself ... any ideas are appreciated.
