Let's forget the stupid mass and concentrate on the system.

I have also had the same results as Paulus, a few pips more or less.

in trading i've found i need to do quite a bit of testing, have a significant sample size, before drawing conclusions

Its amazing how many traders give up .. they set up their 1% risk with 3 x reward TP and stop after 3 losing trades because they think some think is going wrong

Hi Paulus,

Try use Moving Average 60 with default settings which is equal to MACD. Why you trade in the middle of MACD which maximum leads to fake entry leads to loss. when the bar open above the MA try buy and the bar open below MA try sell.

Hello Paulus,
I've just started to test Your strategy and I have a loser today.
I've done some research and made some conclusions.

I try to make 2 trades a day.

First, following Your strategy and second reversed.

When Your strategy tells us BUY we wait for BUY signal from MACD and stoch.
But when after 8:00 GMT we have a SELL signal only from MACD we take it too.

This give us a two trades a day.
Following Your MM we have 3 scenarios:

(For both positions lot is calculating from the same start of the day deposit)

1. LOSS, LOSS - -10% (5% + 5%)
2. LOSS, WIN - +10% (15% - 5%)
3. WIN, WIN - +30% (15% + 15%)

From my little research the second scenario has about 90%.

This is for now. I write some more later.

Basically, more trades, more money, It is a good idea to place a 2nd order after London open, For first 1 min to 30 min, There are impulse buyer causing surge in price movement, after that, it should back to what they should be, The tricky part is that, what profit/lose setting will be for 2nd Order.

I am newbie for 8 weeks in Demo training in my spare time and make mistakes and learning, I am on difference time zone so I can not play London market which is easier to play, I start with $5,000 demo money, Once it was up to $6,500 and down to $2,000 2 weeks ago, but now, it is at $18,000+ after 100+ winning trades. (I am not using Paulus system but more trades more money).

Looks promising, I would throw a Momentum indy with ADX into the mix! Give me a whos in charge and strength of the push. Works well with MACD.

I know it looks good on the chart I attached but I try that before and the results wasn't acceptable for me.
But when we look at Macd and Stoch this may give very good results. Unless thats what I think. Maybe yes, maybe not. We see.

I just wait for tommorow.
