Yes we are, the basics stay the same. I play with the odd squiggly line if it'll help visually. The basics, the red lines show close of 1hr neg candle. We are then just looking to sell, unfortunately as mentioned it was close to news. 15 min has a neg close + then a shooting star.

Its after LO so we are following 1hr and 15 min just looking to sell.

Mrs V's options:

Trade hl/lhs as normal with 5 min 21 sma and 8 ema to help ie 8 ema below 21 to sell and above to buy.

Trade direction of 15 min ma's with good angle + sep, 5 min entry...
Vantage,

is it 8 ema or 8 lwma?
u've mentioned both.

thanks.

Pivots and pivot point multitimeframe (post 1) and sdx sweet spots (00, 25, 50, 75). The pivots indi per 1st post can amend the start time. We use fxpro midnight which is currently gmt +2, it goes to gmt +1 when daylight savings time amends.[list][*]MACD risk 5 15 instead of 12 26. This is under review for Mrs V's benefit and it doesn't look like its staying. I do like it for divergence though in particular that can help with 2b trades.[*]21 sma and 8 lwma.[*]CCI 24 also helps with divergence for 2b's and we are looking at for Profits...
Hi v,
Thanks for your feedback. Mind telling what's that 'MACD risk' indicator all about.

See http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=277168 looking at for Mrs V for trend determination on 1hr 15 min 5 min. She must decide if she prefers that to angle on ma's. Trying out on 5 15 instead of 12 26.

I'm trying to stick with standard indi's so I don't know if this experiment will last, Mrs V's choice.

Hi Vantage,

Trying out your system this week, could you share your %winners and risk reward?

And are you pretty much taking 2 trades a day now?

Hi Larseg
I was on 10-3 excl BE's. Running 15-7 atm. Had 2 losers in 1 day and then missed Tues one of the best trading days for a while. 12% up with a few days to go. So not the best time but not the worst.

Yes I'm taking a couple of trades per day in general.

I am looking at trading flags more (a recent flag thread started and of course eyevoltage has been trading them for ages), they often co-incide with hl/lh entries but also give good seperate set ups.

As usual though I'll be looking to trade them when 1hr has shown its hand with a decent close or 15 min ema's clear. Then I have to get Mrs V comfortable with them.

We had 2 trades today.

Sold gu evening star pattern out at BE. The eur was running up so when the red doji pitched we gave it 1 more chance to go which it didn't.

The ej hl was much clearer so we got in at 112.64.

We missed the eur move up completely when it stalled at 3730 with 2 shooting stars the move up had us fooled. We were already in gu by then.

That is pretty good results
have you tried to force win, as in using money management to reach a specific equity target every week/month...?

I have still not gotten my finger out and tried the system, too much happening already

15 min hl doji, reject of days open, fib retrace of Fri's range combo at 6110. 5 min hl, the upper wick was about at limit of what I like, the 15 min doji clinched it though.

Out half at todays high, +23, we have gone through Fri's high so any pullback here 6180 and will be happy to close bal at +50-ish.

Thks .o0 Mrs V's doing fine, weeeelllllllll down from 50 ciggies per day to 5. The first time ever she's actually wanted to quit!! More importantly all my bodily parts are in tact and there has been no sign of a blunt spoon (prev attempts to quit when she didn't really want to saw my bodily parts at risk of removal from aforesaid blunt spoon!!).

The let some run concept does seem to have promise (obviously) and shes buying into it, NB this won't be for pre LO should we decide to trade that again, thats strictly key levels bank.

Cheers.
