How about that Daily short setup in AUD/USD (if we close tonight with engulfing bar which is about to happen)?
Combined with the broken channel looks like a good deal to me?
I am eyeing this one too...

If you think you can or cannot do it you are correct

An entry according to the rules stated in the 1st post.

But I'm not sure of taking this one. The overall trend is down, buit if we look to the left of the h4 chart, the last couple days look some sort of sideways. On the other hand, the down-momentum seems to be intact.
Another point is the time of day. Both, Frankfurt and London are closed, so there will not be too much action in this pair for the next hours. There seems to be some support a this place, too, but might well be, that it's gonna brake in this downmove. A lot of pro's and con's for this trade...

Again... first time didn't work so well. Let's hope for the best! I'm still in the chf/jpy trade, after 60mm stated his thoughts... What about your eur/jpy? Looks nearly the same..

Yeah, seems to be the better option. So maybe the aud/usd is giong to be interesting in 3 1/2 hours.

It would have been a sell stop. I think that's what you meant.

Hello, i don't wanna clutter your topic, i just want to compliment to you, this is a really good way to trade!

Althrough i don't trade this method (ill sit on my own for now), i have something for you, hope you will appreciate it: OB Ident

Just manually backtested it on EURUSD 4h, GMT+1, Activtrades broker, have scored about 285 pips since jan 1 2012.. 12 Trades, 7W 5L.
Those results are in line with yours?
Or maybe i'm just completley wrong, it's really possible

Hi Stemag,

Do you mind sharing your entries? I have backtested EURUSD as well (Fxpro - 1 jan - 13 march). I have spotted 29 trades, I guess the difference is because fxpro is GMT instead of GMT +1..

Thanks!

Great system 60mm! I'm backtesting it at the moment to get enough confidence. Only problem I have is determing the TP, but I have noticed that the 2nd candle after the trade is triggered, gives you an indication whether you will hit the tp or not.

Hi Diego, yeah im getting some data on when the first candle closes against you, i think over time it might pay to close for a small loss, also looking if re-entry would work if the next candle then trades lower...

Overall picking the right pairs, and right tf to trade seems very important... H4 entries were not so great last week, but at the same time H1 entries paid really well... guess it comes down to reading the set ups, price action etc

Hi Eagle, welcome... .....
.... has one that searches for engulfings. Those sort of aids are great... so go for it.
60Mman,
Thanks for clarifying your views on EAs and visual aids to PA analysis. Have managed to adapt arrow signals to comply with the pull back rules. May still need some tweaking, but looks promising, especially on 15M.
See attached.

I am currently holding short positions in eur/cad and aud/usd, both opened because of the Daily englufing bar.

60mm what do you recommend about signals taken from a daily chart? Do you think it is safe to keep them running for the weekend too?

Maybe it is a good idea to wait for London to open, because liquidity is too low before that...
