Thanks Kevin
Good going Jane

Take the profit and dont give the broker back one single red cent.

If you get a big enough move then hold it.

If it pulls back to hard exit.

And do not worry there are many trades around the corner this morning.

Hi Kevinator

noticed you have switched from the hourly stoch to the 30m, is this something you are trying out

or for the moment should we stick to the hourly?

Hi Kevin, entry point was straight after the magenta up candle where the blue arrow is and was stopped out on the same candle (red arrow). As I have said both 60 and 240 stochs were green prior to and at the time of entry.

Yeah I see

Your being to tight with your stops and you cannot imagine this working so you are compensating your fear of trade failure with a super tight stop loss.

If you did not have that tight stop loss that trade would have been a sucessful one as price hit the top of TMA.

While I am typing away at the keyboard.

I am missing trades.

I hope everyone is in this trade as the market looks like it is trending downward nicely.

Notice 240 stoch red.........Price hits top of TMA take the next rf bar to the bottom.

As of now 5:37AM EST

I am up 75+ points on eurusd

I am up 40+ points on usd cad

I am up 40+ points on usd chf

That is 155 pips from the trades just taken an hour ago.

If I did not have to answer questions I would be in on the gbpusd which would be another 40

Aud usd another 40 and who knows what else.


We are just begining for the morning and I will be here to take comments questions and concerns

Hi All

just noticed a small display bug in the !Kevinator indicator (after looking at Kevinator's recently posted charts).

This bug only appears if you switch the Stoch timeframes in the parameters AFTER you have already had the indicator on your chart.

ie. load the indicator with the defaults, ie. 1hr, then change to 30m after the indicator has already displayed.

what happens is the little text which shows the Timeframe and Direction is left on and overwritten with the new timeframe

To get rid of the old timeframe object

press CTRL + B to get the objects list
search for the objects with the name "!2TFStoch.Desc.xxx" and "!2TFStoch.Dir.xxx" where xxx is the original timeframe you loaded the indicator with, and then delete them

As stated - this bug is a DISPLAY bug only, the logic is not affected in any way.

Regards, John

I have exited the trades and taken those pips to the bank never to return to my brokers pocket.

I take what is given to me if you have the rebounding account.Take everything and give them back nothing.Survival is your main concern so we exit those trades and go get a cup of coffee.

We are not happy or sad.This is business as usual and we are waiting for another entry point.Emotiions are gone from this situation.

Not scarred or anxious. We have no anxiety and are optimistic about the next trade setup around the corner.

We will be disciplined in our trade execution and not enter to early or to late but when the setup presents itself.

Hello John

Everyone here is smart and deserves respect but some are not savy regarding coding and are scanning charts or somewhat new to mt4.

Can you just make the mod to the indicator and post it here.

Oh BTW everyone this is John

He is our official tech support and makes all modifications to existing indicators.

Unbelievable,

I am amazed at some people sometimes.I sit here and post live trade after live trade after live trade and he wants more proof.

Because he is being counter productive to the theme of this thread and has posted negative morale draining statements he is no longer welcome on this thread.

I have fired many influential members of this forum because I can recognize their jealousy and deceitful ways.

He bashed us and what we are doing here and added he will soon add his own live trading thread.

I do not find that funny or amusing at all.

The...
You know what I find unbelievable? The fact that so meny people here can be so ungreatfull at people that are trying to help out.

But then I also find it unbelievable that you have had to 'fire' so meny people. How arrogant can YOU be.

But don't bother firing me because I quit. Good luck to you all and when it all goes belly up (as it will if you continue to follow blindly without asking questions about things you may not understand), you can always pop downstairs and ask Mom to make you a hot chocolate.

One last thing before I go ... how big a stop loss should you have because this particular trade would have needed a 40pip SL just to take a maximum of 9pips.

1st of all I have not seen my mother in four years.

I have not lived with her for about 15.

You cast doubt because you do not understand what you are talking about.

You ran up here trying to tell us about "your indicator TMA true" and how the regular tma does this or that,

Obvious cheap attempt to gain some sort of recognition.

I will not allow you or anyone else who are just showing up to tell us about something we have been doing successful for probably the same amount of time you first discovered TMA.

Want to leave...goodbye..

We do not need your negative attitude and nasty comments.

I understand the difference between a valid concern and someone trying to derail the thread.

Anyone can ask anything but when you start spreading false information and you just showed up to the party.

We are gonna have a problem and there going to be a big misunderstanding.

As I said this is not about the fame of your silly indicator.

This is about traders trying to rebound their accounts and not lose their hard earned money.

This is about new traders trying to learn how to better themselves.

If you stand in the way of our progress you will be sited right on the spot.

Thanks for your speedy reply Kevin. I chose a 15 pip SL which I guess is a little tight for the GU, so the next logical place would have been just below the previous low at around 27 pips SL and it would have been taken out, in fact it required a 38 pip SL to reach the upper band (I have placed a grey TMA true on the chart to indicate the TMA at the time).

My question has to be, where would you have placed the stop loss Kevin, as it was a valid trade at the time (with green stochs), or would you have not used one? If it was a valid loss I accept that, as it is part of the business.

I am not going to argue with you anymore there are more valid questions out there.

I just plugged 150 pips in two hours live two pages ago,

If that is not enough proof maybe you do need to go.

This is what I mean....you are asking a question out of anger that has no real value except to waste more time with your idiotic rant.
