paulus. great list. one question about TP.
so, you set the two TP ,
1. 15% from entry point.
or, 2, First next in line of pivot line from your entry .
whatever hit first. right?
and you never change the 5%, SL. or 15% TP, or next in line pivot TP when the trade start, right?
thanks.

Thats right

the SL is always 1 pip higher or lower than the last swing low or high as depicted by the semaphore

The max TP is 15%

But the TP is also the next pivot line so if I go short and I hit a pivot thats more than 5% but less than 15% then I close

the min TP is 5% to protect the RR

Cheers

Do you guys have a risk management policy concerning how many deals to open simultaneously in a single currency. Ive had some cases where several pairs hit sl simultaneously because of one currency moving. Eg. I had four CAD pairs rolling last night. All but one hit sl. One issue is also taking positions in opposite directions simultaneously in same currencies like eg. gbp/jpy short and gbp/usd long.

I think that this is a risk management issue, but havent yet found a way to deal with it. I think that this system deals with them in the long run, being profitable as it is, but would be nice to know.

No policy personally, but on Friday i had 4 shorts on the USD at once, all 4 hit TP. I was acutely aware of it swinging the other way though. Maybe someone else with more experience can chime in.

It feels strange going long and short at the same time, but with this system you need to take every signal.

Its like Paulus said when it has been a very low range day the day before, you can't really rely on them, best to take note of LL, LH and HH HL and put the stop behind the swings.

One so far.. Only let it go 1:1 as there were no more cam lines below so didn't take any chances.

mayby we will get a setup on gbp/usd m15 soon... the trend on h1 is up, and after a retrace, it could go long again... failed on the pivot, 3 semafor... lets wait for the HA... is it right?

Sorry guys this is a GU trade. Here is a 5M GU short trade. We had 2 attempts (yellow arrows)to go higher right before the DPV line and then we broke to the downside. Price comes up and tests the DPV line and I enter on the down candle (aqua arrow / green line). Targeting the S1 line but got a bit nervous and closed trade at +13 pips. Of course in hindsight price continues down and hits the S1 level.
