Caillou...
If it's not to much trouble, could you please highlite your entries and exits on the 15m chart that was posted with your comment...
I'm not sure I'm seeing it correctly...
Like the idea of using the 15m TF but keep missing the proper entry/exit...
Appreciate your input...
Thanks much
Cliff
Hi Cliff,

Just follow post 5. TP=SL, R:R=1:1.

And yes, it´s better to focuse on H1 here, less confusion.......

Thank you Kraven

kraven, can I ask what your past results have been like? What's you average profit per week for example?

Also how long have you been trading this method?

Apologies if you have answered these already, I don't remember seeing them...

Many thanks...

Caillou why don't you post your EU 15min results at a given time? Say from london open to NY close each day. maybe you could post a pic including the TTT Signals indi at the bottom for ease of identification (by the way nice 15m trade on EU now)...someone else could do the same for the GU?

I've been trding this way (consistantly) since Nov. first on the 15m and daily. but found the 15m was conflicting with something else i was trying, plus i had a few chopy moments so i moved to 1hr and Daily.

i trade with 2 accounts. one is a spreadbetting account that i use for the 1hr tf (hence a lot of my 1hr charts are from a MT4 demo account...i watch the demo charts and enter on my spreadbetting account, MT4 charts are much better and easier to use). for daily trades i use a spreadbetting MT4 account (quite unique) this allows me max. flexibility because i can trade for as little as 10p. however i only enter using pending orders as the live execution is terrible...hence daily trades only.

as for profits really hard to say. i am generaly up each week using this system (or i wouldn't be doing it) however some days i don't trade, some entries i miss, so it's hard to compare week to week or even day to day. today i have entered just twice, both kind of cancelling each other out.

if i have a few good results on the 1hr TF and some bad on the daily I can still be ahead because of the bet sizes. yesterday my daily GU hit it's TP for 170pip and the EJ from yesterday is 80plus pips up, but i would have still prefered to have got in the the 1am 1hr trades this morning. but generaly both time frames workout.

Good morning everyone.....
I need some help here if someone coders here could add the % ADR TP target in pips on the ADR indie features setting..... i found that TP target 33.3% ADR and 66.6% ADR in pips from ADR pips today is a good target to reach.....

Also that i found the reversal bars that tend to be more successfull if they have lenght between 15-35 pips.....

Of course this simple research based on H1 TF only.....

I have a list to hand next to me so I can quickly determine lot size according to stop and % of pot. I Have also put 3 price labels on screen so I can quickly drag them into position and read as I fill out my order as you have to be quick. I have found (with, I must say, limited experience of actually trading this method) that an order works well as At Market has a delay which if the price moves quickly and adds the spread can easily see 5 pips removed from potential which matters.
what do you mean by price labels? i find it rather stressful trading on the smaller time frames since it can take a while sorting out the order i want to place while the price maybe running away...

Hi Guys, the system Kraven had shared looks good, and I had been subscribing and following, but those reversal candles doesnt occur as frequent as some had posted here in 15mins and H1 charts for my broker, Oanda.

I posted a chart here, can someone point to me if this is valid? Thanks alot.

EDIT: the reversal candle break down at 80.53, and according to this system, i suppose to sell. But i actually waited for the pull back and short it at 80.60 with tight SL at 80.67. I am not sure if this candle valid for shorting as basically it is counter trending. Hope someone can give me some guidance.

EU and UChf peaks got taken out so not signals anymore.
Placed order for EJ breaking downwards..we'll see...
GU now has a potential KRC coming up.
