1st post, this looks good just trader talk. Heiken ashi looks a good tool to have. I was brought onto it last week and have been doing a lot of research.I will post my trades and hopefully we'll all learn and prosper. One thing,, has anyone got any info on a PRICE ACTION CHANEL which can be added to chart, i have seen examples of them and they seem excellent. take care
You mean something like the attached? It's been knocking around for years on different threads. This one has an alert function. I'm not sure how good this is for daily charts but it does appear to have some kind of MTF function too. I tend to draw my own channels on daily charts, better in the long run.

Hi Hugh and everyone...Really enjoying this straight forward and un complicated system. Yesterday I scalped on 15 min in both eudlr and eupound and made quick 12 pips... just having furn.....then went 1 hr with same pairs (went long) on both, but used 1/2 hr to pick and confirm entry....+50 on one and +20 on other. Used higher time frame to confirm trend though did feel comfortable using 100 sma in all time frames. Spent last 2 days reading most of thee post on this tread...really great info and people...Trading from the Philippines is a challenge.
Look forward to successful trading and being able to share more on the forum.

Hi donjeep, where are you in the Philippines? I have a friend who lives on Siquijor.

Sounds like you have been having fun! Small gains can add up if you do it consistently but the key is to never lose much when it doesn't go your way. Although I tend to trade higher timeframes these days I believe the basic system works in any timeframe. I actually developed a 1 min scalping version that used the 15 min for trend and then just went for 10 pips win or loss on each trade. As long as your strike rate was over 50% you were making money. I posted it and the thread didn't have too much interest so it got forgotten but I traded it for a few weeks and made money on it.

Keep posting your results, good and bad.

hi hugh,

as requested, here are the summary of trade for this week....
it based on 50/50 trade...

all of my post (picture) entry at old thread...

regards,
1-2 pip max profit.Extreme scalping.Kind of weird going through all this just for 1 or 2 pips.
Seems you are too wimpy to allow profits run more then 1pip.Totally useless
In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

Hi, thanks for sharing. I have great interest in this system. I am a big fan of trading with 4H charts. However, my trading experience is limited and I have a question: if bars are above 100sma in the daily chart but under 100sma in the 4H chart, should I go long or go short or wait for synchronization?

Regards

I use daily and then hourly charts. Wait for the hourly (or 4 hourly) to be the same as the daily. So if the daily is in a downtrend you only want to ever trade the hourly short.

Hugh, could you provide the parameters of your 1min scalping sys? (I understand that this thread is about a totally different trading approach, but I get bored sometimes dealing only with 1H, 4H, dailies), I hope others won't mind, or, alternately, could you provide a link to your 1m sys tread? Thank you.

I took a short on Friday on loonie around 3pm EST...High chance prices hit the weekly support @ 0.9867 while inside the Shi down channel.

Here is the original thread...

It works fine if you have the patience to wait for a valid 15 min signal before you even start looking at the 1 min.

It's also broken an upwards sloping trendline.

No, not much happening at the moment. If you are keen to trade and there is nothing setting up then you can use the original single timeframe method on lower timeframes. Try looking for what is trending well on hourly, 30 min or 15 min charts.

How about EURUSD?


On the daily we had a stoch cross just below the MA100. I dont think I have to wait here for the HA color change away from the MA to give valid direction that now we are only interested in shorts?

Daily:

So if we see a stoch cross down on the H1 and then with either the same or next candle a color change of HA, we can enter ?

Hourly:

Well spotted but a couple of points come to mind. The pullback on the daily has occurred in fits and starts rather than one smooth pullback. There is also a clear trendline that can be drawn on the daily pullback. I will wait for the hourly to break the 100 sma and then wait for a clear pullback to the 100 sma on the hourly and that will be my first entry.

Good thread. Well done for sharing. Have built my own edge, developed principally around HA, for approx 3 years now. I only trade off 12 hr chart and the dailys and use the dmi plus psar as 'filters'/increased confirmation..dmi adjusted to 21/25..

The benefits are massive, can't emphasise how trading less equals more, however, as an example on eur/usd I've only taken one short one long since 4th July 2012 and my typical stops are the high or low of where I believe is the trend turning point, can be as much as 200 pips and I don't use trailing (dynamic or fixed). My risk is 1% per trade.
