Something you may want to consider, if you get that close to your TP and decide not to take it then reset your SL to BE, nothing worse than seeing a good profit turn into a loss.

My 8am bias trade today hit TP plus an extra 5.5 pips = 28.8%, Price was running so let it go until first sign of weakness.

Hey Strada..

Could you or someone answer these couple of questions please..
I got to the screen a bit late when I seen this trade so I thought it all looks good so I took it with profit but not sure of a few things..

1. Is there a time limit for hanging onto a trade as I entered this a bit late in the London opening session before it finally reached the target?

2. The distance between the Stochs being below the 20 before entry was a little way away, is that ok as a trade signal for entry or a no, no?

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Ramjet, I haven't noticed much of a deterioration in the results of the later trades.
If I'm looking at a trade entry sometime after the signal, I make sure I can get in at the original signal close price +/- half a pip.
just my 2cents, strada.

Hi Ramjest, as far as I remember oryginal rules, Stoch have to be beelow 20 just before go up to produce valid signal, at your entry stoch wasn't beelow 20 and I am afraid it wasn,t valid buy signal

Hey Jackub,

Thanks ..
I was thinking that but I wasn't sure if there were some sort of allowances of some sort like so many bars after it was last below the 20 and it is still valid due to the Stochs being below the 50 at entry..

Ramjet, nothing wrong with your interpretation of Paulus's original entry rules, he only specified that stox had to be below 20 whilst MACD was in the dark red zone, no mention of limits on the nimber of bars after that for a signal still to be valid.
Good to see you using some discretion like this. The original concept is very good but the original trading rules were not profitable enough, they had to be adapted for decent profitability.
regards, strada.

good point, Alex, we'll have to give Ramjet the benefit of the doubt and consider his trade as a "No Bias" trade. He made a profit, that's the main thing.

Hi Umpats, yes and no.
If we're talking about the 8.27am signal, the TP was 6, it reached +5.2 (on the SNB news) then reversed so exit at BE.
I didn't do this one today as I'd already done my two trades for the day earlier, 1 @ +15%, 1 @ BE (similar situation to above)
