Good morning Bro

wishing u a bright trading year

hope u got some share in the eur usd

good luck
Good morning Vic!!! wish you a profitable year!!!

EURUSD is not in my strategy for 2011... but I can go long after clear closing price above the monthly KS/weekly Span-B. it seems daily is turning bullish... but needs confirmation.

all my best,

A.

Hi vic_elc,

I noticed that you went short eu, but the strenght for usd was -11 when you took that position.

I thought you only consider currency strength of 15 or greater and weakness > -15 according to the rules.
Please explain your rational for shorting eu. (am aware of 15 1 and 4hr) timeframe pointing in the same direction.

Am using kinoen indicator to observe strenght which i beleive is the same as the excel sheet.

Thanks

He didn't short, he longed and profitted. Today he was trading base on other methodology/analysis.

i didn't short at all i was long
the eur was so strong as per the sheet , USD looked like losing steam @ london open , so i went long once i got the 15 mins break out

it was a risky trade so i didn't use my full risk , but i pref that u guys stick with the sheet rules till u feel the control

good luck

Sorry I meant long, not short. okay i think i get that, basically you entered long because euro was unsually very strong.

Kino --

I am noticing that the Kino Monitor does NOT show a value (on my screen) for the CAD. The other 6 currencies are there.

My Alpari feed is certainly tracking CAD and CHF. In fact I have even put CADCHF on screen at the moment (and tried to reload the Histogram without success).

Anyway, still no content in the currrency histogram.

Is there anything I can/should do at my end?

Thank you for your ongoing creative effort!

Best, Forest

yes it was very obvious that we are having a strong eur

also through the other pairs nothing was ready ( no signals ) either the pair was trending away from the kumo ( eur aud ) or was below the kumo ( CHF JPY ) .
so the best setup for me was the eur usd
but again don't do what i have done , you need to follow the sheet and the rules as we all agreed .
unless i post a certain trade, u guys must follow the rules

P.S. if i posted a trade and you followed me and lost it, don't blame me , you followed me not the boss

i thought the eurusd trade that we took were criterias met based on the sheet, although during that time eurusd was not the strongest, but 1hr and 4hr was pointing up. Am i missing something?

no u r not missing anything , that was a correct trade according to the trend following rules, the only concern was the sheet , it was not pointing out this trade , this is why i asked u guys to stick with the rules ( strength ).

sticking with the rules is very very helpful it is helpful more than u think,
someday u'll wake up at the morning and know what u gonna trade for today without the sheet , may be without any indicators at all , but to reach this day it needs a lot of discipline and patience, the sheet will give u this patience and discipline
hope u got the idea

by the way i never never never go against the trend , it is not my game at all

i am a pureeeeeeeeeeee trend follower

Here is the link to the files incase someone was looking for it, and I updated the trade summary sheet you can lookup by date now too.

This link has all the files in a folder.

https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B24...Yzc1OWI3&hl=en

modified market watch 2.0 5 pairs: for 5 pairs
modified market watch 2.0 10 pairs: for 10 pairs
modified market watch 2.0 15 pairs: for 15 pairs
modified market watch 2.0 20 pairs: for 20 pairs
trade summary: a simple trade journal

Step 1: make a google docs account. You need a google docs account so it can copy it to your account (it is free to have a google docs account). That was a few posts back so it was easy to miss and was not very clear. You can also download it to excel the only problem is the function that makes the chart on the main page is not in my version of excel it might be in newer ones though,

Step 2: when you click on the link it takes you to the folder, select the file you want to open from the folder.

Step 3: open the file (when it was clicked on from the folder link it to a different screen that had the option to open if you don’t get this then it is already open)

Step 4: When the file is open go to the file menu, select make a copy. This will copy it to your google docs account. (you need a google docs account for it to copy it to your account)

Thanks Gorron for your help, I have been trying to get familiarized with this sheet and I did just what you mentioned and copied the sheet to my account, but I am unable to update the data as you can see from the pics below. It's the same data all day and the charts don't show anything. Is there anything else I should be doing?
