First post here so please bear with me.

Having had a quick look at this system I found that quite often the price didn't make it back to the 50 EMA line but it did track the EMA + or - 100.
I looked at taking as the trigger for the next move a crossing of the +/- line instead of the actual EMA.

So I would propose entering as per post one and then wait for the price to move 80 pips. When that has happened wait for the next candle to open above/below the appropriate 100 line and move the stop down to 100 pips from this new level. This looks as though it will clean up some of the pips left on the table by the original method.

I have a micro account with FXCM and will try this out in the New Year.

Will keep a close eye out for any further developments.

Hi everybody !

That 's the new simple system i'm testing since september. It looks very promising : trading EUR/USD and GBP/USD and EUR/JPY, you will see this system has been able to bring almost 2400 pips since september.

You don't mind if I ask
What is your the average monthly profit pips since sept?
p. s. I really do like this trading method
Cheers

If I miss an entry as shown in green arrow in the image, do I chase for reentry like those shown in blue "?" ?
p. s. The candle in the box has >100 pips from 50 EMA.
Cheers

Nice system, only trading trends and staying in that trend until it changes direction. What more could you want?

I prefer an entry at the first candle (green arrow). If i miss the open of the candle, i have 4 hours to reentry enventually.
If i miss the entire candle i prefer to wait for the next signal.

I think the 1st entry of 100 pips is the core of making good pips in this trading method. Of course no trading method is 100% loss-free

OK... wait for the next signal sounds a better option!
Rule no. 1... preserve the capital
Rule no. 2... read rule no. 2

I didn't test this pair.
But, according to the rules, i can see i would have sell 28 november at 1.35, and sell again 9 december at 1.32.
it is possible to sell again today (if we didn't sell at 1.32 because price is less than 80 pips)
So, yes i think it will go south.

But i don't know if parameters (100 pips from EMA50 for the first entry, 100 pips stop loss) are good for this pair. Maybe, they must be adapted for the pair. But the actual price (1.31) is not far from EUR/USD, so parameters could be good...
