agreed...today markets are very strange. i imagine due to EFSF rumors.
So now I'm at +81 for the day, which might be all for me. I'll hang around for a while though

Hi Eval...
I'm coding an alert for the spikes... I will see if I will do
What about the EA for your trading system? It's avalaible for testing?

Realy nice trading RJ

EMA cross?.......you mean my new indi....the arrows? Be patient. I promise I will post it for you all soon. I just want to post some trades so that you all can see how to use it to compliment evals system, and to gain a re-entry if you get out too early due to a spike that repainted.
The worse thing would be to post it now and have some people treat it as the hold grail and lose, just because they didn't understand how best to use it.
Just let me post some more trades, or even point out trades that I would have taken, if I wasn't asleep (!!), and then I'll post the indi for you all to demo and play with until you are ready to incorporate it into your 'live' trading.

Thanks for the stochastic settings realjumper, now I've got a query, see attached on the white.
There's a red spike, stochastic is declining, emotion and sentiment is red and trendline is red.
would u have gone short EURUSD? If not, why?
Attachment
No, I wouldn't have gone short there for three reasons:
1. The stoch is close to oversold territory and while that may not necessarily mean that the PA can't move further south, it is (to me) a warning signal that it may not go too much further south.
2. Those two big bear candles painted half an hour after Frankfurt open, and half an hour before London open. Frankfurt and London quite often do the opposite of each other. That is to say that Frankfurt will push the PA one way, and then London will reverse it......it often happens!
3. The bull run up to that point has been fairly consistent since Asian open, so I would want to see some fundamental reason for a sudden reversal. Because there was no fundamental reason (that I could find), I put those bear candles down to Frankfurt doing it's thing, and/or a simple retrace following a session long bull run.
Hope that helps.

This is not correct. The alerts are for all spikes....not only for top and bottom...and I'm coding an alert only for these spikes..
