i waited just abit and got gu at almost 30..cuts down on sl and can increase profit..but that isnt always the case of course..sometimes right at the open of the candle it just drops and you miss out..discretion i suppose...regards, RB

tkq101, your entry should have been the the 1st blue bar, which is when the green crossed the red, per the rules.

au...short...BE (only to have it come back down hard 2 hrs later..LOL)
GY..short..+75
Gu..short..+25
100 pips in a day is not to shabby by anyones standards! and there were several other winners i passed on..eel is absolutely correct on cherry picking the ones that make most sense..the majors and yen crosses are really good

the absolute coolest part of this is the au trade only went about 10 pips and then TDI went flat so by the rules i exited and it ran hard the other way...save for winning a trade theres no better feeling than exiting one before it goes terribly against you...best regards all, RB

Hey Gang...

I'm kind of under the weather today and will be on the side lines.

I took no trade last night.

I shoot for 50+ pips a day trading full lots. When I reach my goal I quit live trading for the day... not greedy here...

[font=Comic Sans MS][size=3][color=#0000ff]Back to you soon......

Yes, try right clicking in the upper graph.

Shitty trade (stoch wasn't red at the moment of the trade); any explanation?

I'm a newbie, but I think there's nothing wrong with the setup, it is just a very unpredictable pair.

I think we'd better trade the pairs that eelfranz trades and just leave GBPCHF, AUDNZD etc. alone.

Just my 2 cents...

As far as I remember, he trades 8 pairs. I remember that he trades EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD (these three are his favorites), USDCHF, USDJPY, USDCAD and EURJPY. I'm not sure about his eigth pair, I think it is EURGBP.
