First position out as well at BE. Price bounced exactly where I said it would.... ! May consider taking long now....

I'd wait for a fresh daily signal before getting involved again, these things have a habit of turning round. Wait til you catch a good trend and you won't worry so much about a few break evens.
good idea, USDCAD hit resistance at weekly pivot which in my experience give a good bounce plus DXY is pulling back as well

The UJ EJ and GU D1 are already green on my charts.
UJ H1 is blue but not closed.

Nzd/Usd looks good for a long if H1 closed green.

Can you please tell me how you see Eur/Usd now? What are you looking for on D1 and H1?
Sorry to be slow answering but xxxusd look a little choppy now. The pullback isn't going to be a smooth one. Maybe best to wait for something better to set up. I like the look of eurgbp for Monday.

No problem, thanks for the replies Hugh and John.

I need to be patient and get out of the habit of looking to catch price when it turns and rather look for trend continuation.

Talking of which if Aud/Usd close green HA on H1 I think I will open a long position.

I started watching this thread a few weeks ago and implementing a lot of the ideas a couple of weeks ago, mainly on a slightly shorter time frame than D1/H1, also I still have a twitchy mouse finger and tend to exit earlier than I should, however,,,, my success rate has improved enourmously and the value I get from the successful trades is way better.

One of the things I like about this method and this thread in general is that it's not too 'doctrinal', lot's of people bung in different thoughts and ideas which keep us thinking more than just a narrow way.

I'm just thinking about taking a quick short on the EURUSD 'til lunchtime when the weekend starts (I'm self employed so it starts when I say it does!)
Don't ask me, I have no idea what's going on.

All the time the eurchf is being supported just above 1.20 eurusd and usdchf are almost perfectly negatively correlated meaning they will both move in tandem, one up and the other down. All you are doing by trading both is doubling your risk. Nothing particularly wrong with that as long as you are aware of it. I would just stick to trading one or the other and most often eurusd.

Thanks for that - young brain is still working

It is good to hear your trading success has improved with this method.

Like you I also can be a bit trigger happy when I see a set up nearly ready, i.e, D1 HA green Stochastics crossed up, H1 Stochastics turned up, HA green but candle not closed. Enter to see H1 HA go red again.
I need to wait for the candle to close before entering.

AUDUSD Buy at 0.9837. Stoploss at BE now. What I like is that so far, upon a fresh signal, I managed to put stoploss at BE quite rapidly. Let the market play now...

Hello Hugh Briss and followers.

Very good thread you have here, if you permit me to enter i would like to participate.

I donīt trade with HA and Stoch.
I trade only with ADR, trend lines, horizontal lines and EMA in the chart.
I use D1 and W1 charts.

If you guys start using ADR is an asset to the system in my opinion of course.

Nice weekend for all

Yep, this one is difficult at the moment. I've been short for a few hours. Although it's sitting around consolidation, I'm still betting it'll go down. Just love paying that rollover...
Still learning - No guarantees...

Will wait for a signal on D1 to go short. Daily stoch is ready to turn. Be careful as weekly support is close.

Thanks for posting and feel free to post your method. How exactly do you use your indicators? I find daily and weekly too close. If I was going to position trade I would use monthly and daily.

Thanks Hugh Briss.

In general itīs like that:

For example right now uchf:

I draw a trend line in W1
I saw uchf is in downtrend since 2000 and price is touching in the line.
Now iīm draw the zones where price change direction.
Then i change to D1 and i adjust the zones to the reversal candle and make a new zone in D1.
Then i trade the break of that zone.

I use ADR to see the daily range in pips of the pair.
I use EMA to help visualize the price movement and for more conservative entries.

Sorry but itīs not possible for me to post an imagem, so i post in that link

Ps: Sorry my english is not very good.

Good weekend.

Hi Hugh/Anyone .....

I was able to insert the HA mq4 file into a MT4 chart because there was very clear instructions in post #13 on the process ..... but following a similar procedure using the metaquotes language editor, and without directions .... how do you insert "DojiSpotter" and "Stoch Crossing mq4" into a MetaTrader chart?

Thanks for any assistance

It's the same process. Put the files into the experts/indicator folder, restart the platform and you will be able to add them by insert/indicator/custom.

Hey guys, I'm relatively inexperienced in trading. Thanks Hugh Briss this seems like a very interesting strategy.

Is EUR/GBP a good trade?
