Many congratulations, Hugh, on a very interesting thread.

I noted a similar picture on the EURUSD M15 and before I could post it, the price shot up over 40 pips. Got my 20 pips in a matter of seconds.

BTW, I wonder what caused a sudden surge in the Euro pairs ??

No major news from the US at 1.30 pm today.

Cheers,
Pierre
Hi, bit of a mystery really but it was good enough to give a buy signal just before it took off which it doesn't normally do! Nice trade.

It goes to show that this pattern works nicely on any timeframe. When you have a reasonable trend and get a smooth pullback you can normally count on a reasonable trade. After that it's just a question of money management.

Yes, we are in the process of trying out a number of things. That trade had a 20 pip risk so taking 50 pips seems reasonable although I agree, I could have held it longer.

This is a borderline trade as it's not a smooth pullback but it is with the trend. An hour and a half until the candle close yet so I'll watch it.

hi malou, if you're not comfortable with the stochastic, perhaps you could pobrar with CCI14, I like a lot .... divrgencias me, oversold-overbought

this is one of the strategies used when I well defined trend (bb below or above the SMA 100)

during periods of range do not use it .... range for me = sma100 in bb
Hello porfirio,

Thanks for the screenshot and to point me the CCI14, I will be sure to try it. I like the rule about the SMA below or above bollinger bands + if in it = range = no trade. It seem pretty easy to use, I'm gonna try this as soon at home. Thanks again!
