Ok, I think I have to say something here.

I am half pro trader. What I see on this forum (and also in this thread) is that BACKTESTING is almost never made, but strategies are rated 5 stars.

Why ? I tested some of these strategies (extreme low SL and High TP) and guess what ? Breakeven at the end.(no, I forgot the spreadcosts, commissions...)

Why ? Because the forexmarket is so well balanced that you cannot earn with such a simple strategy without a filter.

@Haifischzahn: Hello Bro, nice to see someone's really...
I think the only one could explain that would be Tony, but it seems desappears...........

Hey Geomik,

yeah, it's a pitty . His Idea was great ! Thanks for that.
The problem I have is that i cannot test it properly even if I want to.
I would need tick-datas and this crashes my computer(to many datas) (except you could filter it to 5-10 minutes per London/newyork open).

Have a nice day all of you.

Take a look at R (http://www.r-project.org/). It handles lots of data very easily. I am still working on loading Oanda tick data into it though... just not working very hard

Was getting pretty excited. I imagine if that entry had been the top for the day, price would have easily gone 100+ pips.

hello Tony
i found your strategy interesting but since it was made back in 2009 it would have dies, however when i got onto the last page your still here! oh god!
i have been to forex for 1 whole month
i know the basics of trading
i just need to ask what plat form to use for 5sec charts? can i use mt4?
also can u mark your next chart (entry,exit& direction)
do your enter trades manually coz trading 5sec needs a fast trigger
thanx

its my 18th birthday today ppl

Welcome Lucy!

This strategy uses Oanda due to the low spreads and they have a 5 second chart to use for the entrys.
Page 1 has the rules. just enlarge the pic in the first post,
The first 180 pages here are useful, but not exactly what Tony is trading now.
After page 180 he went back and changed his first post to the new rules.

Wish I had known about 4x when I was 18. I wouldnt have been cleaning carpets for 25 years.
But I know now!

The thread lives on because the idea behind it is even older, 2005, and is driven by a pure passion for success and freedom. Welcome here, I have nothing but a manual entry with oanda and as you may see, last NY open was an epic win.

Very interesting post regarding to Central Banks and Big Players with the use of this we can get the present system. By the way how can you transfer the system into the other one?

Tony why can't i use 5-10 pips as my stop loss isn't it safe
This might be a stupid question i'm new to the hell called forex trading
also how long is your average 5 sec candle that tells you the direction???

Jeez tell me about it! Look away for 3 mins and EUR USD popped 80 pips. Only 10mins later i figured out it was EURCHF buying. Wonder how long they keep intervening at a time. 1 day only or continuous buying over a couple of days? Anyone knows?
