Yep, I've got pending on both at 94.09 and 78.25 respectively. Already have live shorts on them from before as well.

Spyder, isnt the yellow MA above the blue MA on the daily for those charts? why is pending short still valid below the green bar?

Sorry i might be wrong...

Well actually, the 5 just crossed back down under the 8 on my chart. Yours may be different if your daily bar ends at a different time. Mine changes at 4:00 CDT. But even so by the time price gets down to the pending order yours should cross as well.

It would...and is... for me. We'll have to have Hugh weigh in. The interesting aspect to this that we'll have to figure out is how long do we keep this pending valid. What if price ranges for a while and then turns down. Should we keep that swing low or look for a new setup.

Hugh? What do you think?

Great thread Hugh! I've never made so many pips. Sadly at this point they are all demo.

I also would like to seek clarification on spyderman and Konata's point. I know in the first week of trading this system I entered 2-3 trades as per the way spyderman describes but was wondering once the 5/8 emas cross do you consider this a "reset" and hence wait for a new reverse candle once they recross?

Again many thanks for such an easy and mechanical EOD system.

23.

With all the retracements this week we're just getting a lot of setups (15 right now). Of course they may never come back to the entry. Might also get some monthly cross-over next Wed.
Spyderman - would you be willing to post the 23 pairs you are following?

Also, does anyone know how to load more pairs into MT4 beyond what is already there? I see 22 pairs in my version of the platform (Oanda-provided). But cannot seem to see how to load other major pairs. Would anyone happen to know?

I was just looking over your trades Spyder..... good job....... Like I posted earlier in this thread this is a method I use to add positions to my main trading system.... I had not really thought about this as a stand alone method but this is great.... Keep up the good work.
Also the skype invite is still open if you want to discuss trading.

Good question. I think it would be a reasonable trade but you could just as easily wait for the ma's to turn down again and then wait for a pullback day. I would say that either trade would be good.

At this stage I'm happy to use either so long as I'm sure the 5/8 emas will have crossed back by the time my order is triggered as spyderman has already previously mentioned. I guess only time will tell on this one.

Hugh can I also ask on the monthly chart if the 5/8 emas start to cross in the opposite direction do you wait for that monthly bar to close in order to confirm a change of trend or will you take trades in the new direction before that months close?

If the daily is moving strongly and the ema's are in the right direction then I would be happy to take trades before the monthly closes.
