Hi All,

The excel sheet contains results from two 24 hour strategies I am currently testing. Both systems have been tested on FXCM trial mini platform and I use CSI data provider.

Strategy 1 is the results of the last two weeks trading using CP's signal formulas and Beachbums entry calculation sheet. The results are negative but you will see that if you remove all the trades where there were big news days then the profit is 248. As illustrated in the excel sheet I look for a red fire signal in the forexfactory website calander to indicate a no trade for any pair which has a red signal.

Strategy 2 is the results of the first week I have been testing Beachbums entry calculation sheet and the stochastic 9,7,7. My results for this week finished -17 and -138 minus the big news days so I don't know what you can draw from that. Although BB has stated his 24 stoch set & forget system was up over 230 for the week, I am still learning how to interprut the signals. I just thought I would post this system results too so people can still see that although BB has good success working this system it still requires alot of practice so obviously I will keep learning the stoch system before I go live and I would suggest the same to anyone else.

In addition, the GBP/USD has been a killer for system one this week. This is one limitation using CP's signal file, because the GBP/USD has been on a mad buying spree the signal file always gives you a sell signal because the formulations obviously think the market must sell off to be in line with the ma 5 and ma 10. Anyway, perhaps this would be a good trading system to use when a market is either range trading or trending, sorry I can't remember which one is which. Basically I mean when the market is just trading within a few hundred points range for a week or two rather than moving 1000 points in 14 days like what has just happened to the GBP/USD.

Anyone have any suggestions? Could we use the ADX signal to determine whether it is range or trending. Sorry, I don't know much about it but I think this could be the answer for using this system. Anyone who has any suggestions please reply.

Happy Trading

Sorry, can't get a winrar or a excel sheet uploaded, any suggestions.

Anyway, the results are basically in the first message, i'll try to upload the whole results sheet soon. But would still like some suggestions on my earlier comments.

Happy Trading

Hi Foggy.....

Convert your Excel spreadsheet to a zip file and upload.........

Hey all,

Here is the results, nothing complicated or impressive, its just how each currency pair faired over the course.

Happy Trading

Hello Foggy and others..........

I took a good look at your results spreadsheet and there are some major differences between what you and I have been doing. This is because of the difference between cp trade signals and the 4 hour stoch signal I use.

As a quick example look at Friday, May 5. You had trades on the eur/usd and the gbp/usd; I DID NOT have trades on these two pairs. Both would have been a "buy" for me, but neither triggered, so I assume you had a sell signal. Same day; I had a profit on "sell" usd/jpy, profit on "sell" aud/usd, profit on "buy" usd/cad, no trade on eur/cad, loss on "buy" eur/jpy, and profit on "sell" gbp/jpy. Total for the day was +173, best day of the week!

For me, this emphasizes the effectiveness of using the 4 hour stoch signal.

This week I am going to post my Excel tradesheet each day for reference purposes only! I have had several pm's about the trade indicator and I hope posting the chart will help clarify some of this.
