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.

Man this is really astonishing.

I just backtested it, using the OB identificator i provided, with FXPro broker (GMT), on EURUSD 4h.
The only rule i applied were no overweek trades, and no trades at nightly hours, although i took trades at the close of the 4AM candle (so 7AM at GMT+1), means for me that i must wake up one hour earlier. IMPOSSIBLE TASK.

The azure background cells means that the trade could easily be closed at BE with basic position management.

First results (A C 19) are without applying position management.
A column are the results using MA14 at "direction identifier", C are the results using MA50.

I will attach the indicator i used to catch those trades (the same i attached yesterday), settings are default.

There could be errors in my backtest, i've done it in hurry, so i'd be glad if someone could do a backtest too, same broker, same rules.

..slightly different approach, in that i was asleep for the large high momentum Asian engulf, waited for a retest which you can see led to a bullish hrly engulf (above the MA), but there was no continuation and the sell-off began. Stop now at b/e.
edit: potential TL bounce now in play..will exit on a 5min confirmed 123 reversal.
edit: 12:50(UK) stop to +13.
edit: 13:35...stopped out for +13.

A column...
I recived some PMs about this post, i wanna point out that i'm NOT the maker of a system (btw WHAT system?!), i just backtested 10mm ideas using an indi, no more no less.

Yes, i backtested it manually (so some errors may be behind the corner, all the results must be taken with a tolerance of +/-7p at least), and NO, i have NO EA.
The backtest rules were straightforward: all 10mm's rules, and the exit strategy was a simple 1/1 R:R, so if the stop was @50pips (bottom of the signal candle) my tp.. well you know it
And as i say i haven't traded overweek, so i closed opened trades at late afternoon in fridays.

I'm glad if someone can backtest this stuff too with same rules, with FXPro broker, demo server number two.

Now i'm trading, when i have some time i will backtest other pairs too, maybe 1h TFs.

See you later.

I didnt wait for the entry bar to trade above the signal bar...

I missed the great H1 entry so I kind of rushed in thinking I'd missed the boat...
