Traded my first gap on the EURUSD this week and hit my TP a few pips before she tanked Love it.

Banked +0.44R

I like the rules and it fits with my weekend routine just after the webinar so I will spend some more time backtesting the gaps on EU.

Two winning weeks back to back right after everyone stopped trading it. Watch this space ;-)

Thanks to Eltrot for reminding me via Twitter that I missed taking the trade I called in my own webinar!!

Look at this beauty...worked as expected but you sure do need eyes in the back of your head (or more screens) to keep up with it all!

Been waiting on this one for awhile, GBP/AUD short 1.556

SR only, no fibs.

Welp, a quick stopout is better than a slow and painful one. On to the next...

Another victim of the cross.

Tom, you always advise against the crosses. I'm just starting out and I'm still trying to decide exactly which instruments I am going to watch. Would you recommend just the majors and cad and aud? add usd/nzd? This was what I was thinking but then I have usd in every pair... I have capital restraints that will keep me from trading futures s&p, oil etc for the time being. I should still keep an eye on the s&p though right?

Also, does anyone have any experience with upfx? I was trying to open a small account with them and when I get to the page to access my account it says it will be unavailable until august 26th which is like a month ago. I sent 2 emails about 24 hours ago, no reply yet.

SPF on the Aussie Daily anyone?

and Daily spider on Yen

and a possible round retest sell on silver

USD/CHF very nice level on Daily -> http://screencast.com/t/ywT3zTfmO

EUR/AUD nice level too -> http://screencast.com/t/thDs27lAFiY


Enjoy!

CHF/JPY 84.91

Last nights gap just scrapped in for the min size. Hit the the TP within the hour and I was done. 2 out of 2 now. However I am now wondering what broker to continue demoing with and then for live. I was just using FxPro, larger spreads on the open, 4 pips approx and variable. 4 pips on a 20 pip trade is a large %.

Do you TP AT the level or allow for spread, as the TP was a buy and the spread issue I set it for 135030 (Fridays close was 134985). Is this correct? Do you have stats for how much price punches through the gap.

Is anyone brave enough to recommend a broker that meets the criteria, ie 22:00 (UK) open. Fixed / low spread on the open. Needs micro lots too for my wallet. Could be an SB I guess as Im in the UK, not entirely sure what they would be like on the open though. My normal trades are Oanda. (PM me if need be)

Apologies if these answers have been covered already. I try to attend most of the webinars as apposed to follow the thread.

Quick profit on the NZDUSD this morning and now short the Bund as discussed in the Webinar from 138.34

If we get there....looking to offer 1.5576, ATR, Fib, trend

I am looking for a short from 1.5631 since it looks to me more stronger and also aligned to a daily level..

Lets see how it goes.
