Sorry for your loss Tony, I've been following this thread for well over a year now and I believe I have only posted once. Thank you for your countless post and constant attention to the thread! Take your time getting back in, there are of course more important things than money and I am glad you see that.

Also thank you for making this thread, although I have never posted a comment I have been practicing your method and the results have been outstanding! I have increased my account by 41% since the beginning of this year, thank you!

I considered that entry, but there wasn't a 5pip candle so i decided to be patient.

There was a b/e trade shortly before London though:

Hi Tony,
I am following this interesting thread for something like 6 month and today I decided to register so that I can do comments

A question to this chart:

Am I wrong or isnt it the london open? Are you now starting to trade every hour candle or what u wanna show us with this chart? I cannot find an open or a 5sec-candle.

Hi Haifi, wellcome aboard! I'm not Tony, but i think that he wanted to show how price first tested the 1.4000 level at 04:11 and then moved through with some force(not a 5pip bar but still) at 04:19. Of course i might be wrong, but that's the way i interpreted that chart.

Hey Kevin,
thx for for your explanation! This could be right as well. I thought that he wanted to show us, that at 4:00 on that chart, so 1 hour after london-open, we got a low, which is not reached for a long time.

@Tony: Still wanted to say:
My heartfelt sympathy! (For your non-materially loss)
I believe that I can imagine how you are feeling atm....

hi everyone
this is my first post i have read from page 1 to 353 think the last few became a blur as i read from start to finish
i wanna say what an amazing thread and contribution you all have made to a system which makes sense and doesnt involve 200 indicators
just a couple questions for you tony
hope they dont sound stupid

is the 2 pip stop including spread eg 0.9 and 1.1 in stop
or 0.9 + 2 which would be 2.9?

also am i right in understanding that we wait for the first 2 pip direction rather then 1?

also i read about the 8 pip candle what trades would these be on?
news or ldn open or ny open
sorry if they sound newbish ive traded manual for a while but i wanna nail a system that actually can make a living for me rather then working a day job i hate, so i can spend more time with my newborn son and partner

ps i couldnt find a disco ball

Hi,
from today I wanna share my charts with you, starting with the Frankfurt open and the first big 5sec-candle after it.
I hope that its a desired addendum to you, Tony.
Maybe we can start something like pip-history from today.
I think that it would be a great thing.

Tony, may I ask you, what your Take Profit is for a big 5-sec-candle?

hey Toni,

i just want to say thank you for this great strategy!!-this is the best thread on FF (and I read a lot here).
I want to test it with a demo but i dont know which broker has low spread and is secure (segregated accounts): I think Dukascopy is a good choice. I have their demo and in most cases they have a 1 spread +COMMISSION!
Oanda is not better
When i look at their past spreads they offer 1pip spread minimum at London open.That sucks.
Are you still trading with them?
A last question: I think it is not so important to have much winners with this strategy (1 time per month?), that would be enough. More interesting for me is the question how long was the longest time you waited for a winner?.How many losses, 0loss do you made in this time?


thanks,

Ghaz

I've never seen so much trading noise in my whole trading life.... this is by far, the ugliest chart I have ever seen in so many years of trading experience.
Note that it's 5 sec chart, I've never ever seen this, never.

Hi Tony!

Just finished reading the whole thread. Definitely inspiring! Thanks for all
the work you've put into it, and everybody else as well. I hope you're doing OK, and looking forward to seeing more posts from you.
Cheers everyone!

My post will probably take time to show up. That was a good start to a Fri AM

Tony,

Are we still going with your rules in the first post?

I have a tiny account with Oanda, and I swear they still stop hunt me.
Any problems with you?



Guccio,

Which MA's are you using? They look like they may be helpful.

Thanks guys.
