RobinHood, would it be possible to provide me your template, I can try to see if it works on my plateform and if it is not working, then I definitely need to investigate with the broker

If you don't want to, no problem I will understand.
Thanks

Thanks FH for your Print Screen,

I think I know how you make your judgement on which pair to look for.

  1. The most important one is D1 LvL3 to make initial decision
  2. Then Look at H4 LvL3 Chart List – Look for LvL 4
  3. Balance BUY and Sell 50:50. (As on your previous post, order will have to be equals)
  4. Check D1 LvL2 with MA (Table list or Chart) .look for LvL3 above


Correct me if I am wrong on your initial judgment.

Questions:-
From looking on your Screen B4 and After,

The Odd one I found was the BUY EA and BUY NJ. However, these are not that straight forward although from the AFTER chart shown EA was +53 and NJ -170 points.

My question is if you ignore the Odd one which is BUY EA and BUY NJ would maximise the potential profit on the account. But then if it on the reverse side where BOTH EA and NJ have massive Positive (It will be able to protect some of the negative one)

No one knows where it goes and We learned everyday.

Thanks again.

Thanks a lot for the Templates.

Unfortunately, the result remain the same - then, it should be a technical problem from the MT4 (this is sorcery)

It was a good test

Here's what my new daily looks like.

You guys should be posting the same stuff you are asking for too. Keep the field level for everyone.
According to your example and the trades you have considered, it seems you do not pay attention to both H4 histogram.

(I am sure you will send me to the past 4 years of threats, but it would be interesting to understand the process more clearly, this will save time for all of us - incl yourself)

However, we all do appreciate the time you are spending on teaching us this wonderful method

Take it easy !

Gentlemen,

I have posted at least 6 very valuable templates, and I have posted pictures of several baskets before I even knew for sure if they would come to profit as a sign of proof for my methods. I have also posted many images with detailed instructions.

If you want to know why it works for me and not for you, I can tell you why: Because I taught myself. I didn't ask anyone else how to do it. I "got" it -- the concept of the system and the importance of the indi -- all on my own. No one had to convince me. The rest of my success came from thousands of hours of screen time. Go back through my posts and you will see the word practice over and over. That doesn't mean pop on a template, wait 10 minutes, and then come back in here sobbing that it doesn't make sense to you. Practice to me means asking myself a question and then working for as long as it takes to find the answer -- even if it takes weeks, and even if I don't finally like the answer in the end. That's practice, my friends, and if you are doing any less then you are just wasting your life in Forex and you are doomed to become just another part of the losing 95%.

I am not sure if it will solve the issue but make sure that you have sufficient weekly bars in your history for all related pairs. Try clicking W1 timeframe for all pairs one by one.

forexhard,

I appreciate the sharing of your experience so far. And truly you have shared the experience from many hours that you have put in to the concept of this system.

I appreciate the view of looking at the histogram more closely with the different time frames.

Thank you for sharing the templates that you must of spent hours in developing the right settings.

So many thanks.

Bruce

Forexhard,

I can understand the frustation you might have regarding the mis-understanding of people. But, I can assure you that we are working hard to understand the system and are keen to go into a higher level if we can pass this step.

I have read most probably 8 times the whole 4 years of threats, take notes for the important points and more I read and go into the newest threats, more the confusion is growing.

Actually, on the Threat no. 1556, you mention : Then all you have to do is wait for the colored bars to match across 3 of the 4 TF's before building your basket. The Weekly and the Daily should be in agreement, but only one of the smaller TF's needs to match the 2 higher ones. In other words, if you try waiting until all 4 are in perfect agreement you may be waiting for days before being able to trade.

On the Threat no. 1558, you mention : Gentlemen, copy this pic to your desktop. It's all you need to know in order to trade baskets successfully with the CCFp v2 indi. (you gave us a very nice picture on how to understand the pairs pick-up)

Both Threat are abviously very different and probably the confusion is coming from this part.

I have also read that the best is to enter the pairs and wait for a couple of hours before taking the "profit" or "loss"... then, I have seen that you are trading for 30 minutes.

Of course, I am here to learn and I am convinced that this system is wonderful and I am fortunate to have someone like you who understand it perfectly. But, I am most probably not as high understanding as you are and even if I am traded since 6 years and this is my full time job, it is quite hard to get the point of this.

Thanks for your understanding and patience for the dummy I am

I don't understand and that drive me crazy !

I get all the indis in my Metatraderexpertsindicators folder then I get any of Fxhard's template and instal them in my Metyatradertemplates folder. Then I get a chart and I implement any of those FxHard's templates ... and I get quite a good picture ... BUT THERE IS NOT ANY INDIs, ONLY OBJECTs hence I can't see the setups and not to say that I can't make any change. I DON'T SEE ANY INDIs. When I right click I don't even get the Indicators List Line ??? Or some times there is this line and I get ONE indi : a moving average with period=1 ?????

It's the fist time I meet this sort of issues.

Any idea ?
Thanks In Advance.

Best regards

Donīt worry Corinne,

You are not alone, in fact, I really think nobody understands the system that some apply now. Why? Maybe we are all fools, I donīt think so. The confusion comes because there is no clear system with clear rules of entry. I have read a lot of threads, a lot, and even Brijonīs systems are easier to understand. The system is getting more and more confusing and losing its initial attraction.

EsTrader, Iīm still playing with this indicator and if I find something clear to post I will do, but I still donīt find a good entry strategy.

Regards

Same here Corinne, i look at the pic posted in post no. 1558, then compared to the screenshot of the trades made in post no. 1605 and still i don't understand how the trades were made. There seem to be inconsistencies in the instructions explained and its confusing.

cant agree more. I appreciate what forexhard did really. I have read his posts so many times. But some of the things are not so clear, and if he does not want to explain further, its fine with me. I am pretty sure I can figure things out by playing with the indi.
A successful trading depends on knowing what to analyze.

This whole thing has frustrated the hell out of me also...for days I have numerous times re-read all the posts since about page 92...as I assumed that it might just be me who wasn't fully grasping the idea.

One post says go left, the next says go right and the next says just keep going straight. The only common thread I see is that he always uses just that one same indicator.

The ONLY thing I can deduce for sure is that Forexhard is telling us that YOU can create BASKETS of trades in many different ways using this ONE indicator (and different settings), but it's up to you to come up with your own baskets and settings, I suppose by doing your own backtesting and arriving at what you think works.

Aside from all that, I have really appreciated Forexhard's insights, advice, pics, and the indicator.

I understand frustration. I know what it feels like. This is not the only system I have ever tried to learn or to use, and many of those others left me feeling abused.

I've said it before: I can help you guys learn to think for yourselves, but I won't do the thinking for you. I can only spark in you the desire to search for yourself whether this type of trading is for you or not. And if it's not, so what? Walk away. There are thousands of ways to trade Forex. Or stay with the indi but stop listening to anything I say in the matter. You have many choices to pick from. Just like with the indi.

But remember, I have posted several baskets here. In fact I have posted every basket I have traded in the past 2 weeks. And all of them have gone into substancial profits.

Here now is an example of how my mind works. If you can't follow this example then you will never agree with anything I have to say, so pay attention. Here it is: There are 5 photos attached. Do they show 5 different objects, or one object 5 different ways?

When you have your answer, you will also have your answer regarding my trading methods as well as my teaching style.
