Guys,

For your reference. Alpari and IBFX has different signals due to different H4 closing. Choose what works best for you.

Udine, I thought you just hope the break was given in the next candle after the input signal, but now I see that it is not. So many candles waiting for the break?

Thanks.

Well I got in later - didn't use trailing stop as TP was just under my M3,but I got my 10 pips...I guess thanks to industrial production m/m -)

And thanks again for the system,Udine!

the GU did not give my my 10 pips, but the trailstop kicked me out with only 2 pips. So 22 pips for the day.

Udine

Edit:

It would have reached my TP though....

next time more pips (not Luck!!)

I decided not to trade GU today,but did take another signal on EU and got another 10 pips although with slight violation of SL rules,which I know is critical(although based on my s/r assumptions) so I wil try not to break them again -)

Hi Maudur,

sorry, I seem to have missed your post.

I had the pending order set, and I only remove the pending order when there is a signal in the other direction.

A lot of time though there is no time to put in a pending order so I use scripts with hotkeys to jump in immediately.

you should be making your own statistics, as it gives valuable info on your trading. See it as part of doing forex business.

Udine

Edit: otherwise it is like you are in business, but without doing your administration.... does that sound healthy to you ???

was too busy with other things, so missed the GU signal, which would not have given me the full 10 pips, but at least 1 or 2.
