So you went in on EU again?
no.. its too range-ish and look for a bigger dip to near lower band or something..

dear helix,

I am a momentum trader with some years of market trading under my back... once its there I get in and once its not there anymore I get out.. i look for a take off after trigger, if it takes too long for PA to make up its mind and acts wishy-washy before it gets me into too much trouble i cut it's throat, move to the next setup and by god in this system there is plenty of opportunities.. so with a low avg loss it should be fine enough to dream as big as one wants.

cheers and happy piping to all
Thx P.Dean

will be around to watch and learn

I am trying similar stuff but at the moment I can only detect price action and momentum on a 10sec to 1min chart

good pipping to you today

cheers

As I can see there's going to be a really nice setup on EUR/GBP, what do you think?

What are the TMA settings. When I load it it only has one line at 30 periods. Tried looking through the thread but couldn't spot it. Thanks

Ok guys I am out of here for the day...

between the 5 major pairs that i keep track of and trade.. there was plenty of opportunities, even on days like this when europen banks were closed and not much data all day and overall range-ish day..
as active as i was ( 6trades for 4-2 = +39) but i was pitiful on being present for every valid opportunites.. there was about 12 signals and i was present for only half.. that's where it leaks for me and for anyone who wants to be successful in this system... if i was present for at least 80% of all signals (which is a necessary percentage IMHO) i would have got my +100 minimum goal.

name of the game.. scan scan and make present..


just some words of thought.


I thanks Kevin and all other contributors.. i be ready to sharp starting frankish open.

see you all tomorrow.


Cheers

Hello

Attached here and in the 1st post is a updated version of the system.

Retracement finder is a modified version of double woody CCI.I have added this indicator as a replacement although they are one in the same.

Auto trendline is the other addition to the system.This indicator will allow you to visually understand exactly were you stand within the trend.

When price begins to break the trend line that is a early warning that the current trend is over and price is changing directions like in the photo.

This should keep you out of trouble when looking to determine direction of trend.

This also adds another potential play to the system which is the buying and selling of the trendline break as well as the hard rules of the system.

Got done early today & started scanning like a madman. Was able to get +10 on EJ. Should of gotten more but had to leave. Was also able to make +5 on EURGBP. Currently in USDJPY long.

kevinator, would you have taken this trade? why?

kept it simple

For a long

Must have price in between lower band and middle band
has been a step up on MTF Stoch
Long on black trigger bar on RF

TP is the Top band
SL is 1pip below the lowest low behind the signal

Visa versa for shorts

Bands have changed slightly since trades were taken

did you take all those trades? because I'm almost sure that in at least 3 of them, the stoch was pointing in the opposite direction when the RF signal was given...

Hi Kev,

GREAT system! have looked at your live trades and this is definately a winner.

you posted the MTF stoch indicator in the first post, I was wondering which settings (i.e. which timeframes to use in it) to use if scalping on the 5m chart? which of the higher timeframes should you set to true/false as per the stoch in your images?

thanks
