usdchf did not close below the EMA

it did on my chart. just below the ema. in fact it is a perfect sell setup. i dont have the chart in front of me, but if i remember correctly yesterdays daily close was a spinning top / pinbar. so a high probabilty trade. have taken sell.

May be not on your platform mate. I did not enter the trade due to the long'ish tail though.

It did on my platform (Alpari UK, working from CET zone GMT +2)

Wasn't the most emphatic entry, but as it formed a pin as a second rejection of 9400 which is also where the 200EMA sits, I decided to take it. Currently +15

@shaikjun



in the place of the Daily chart,
24hr = 1440 minutes

i find it to be sharper more reliable info then the Daily, also 1440min chart compiles the information exactly to the specs of your time zone.
meaning the next day starts at the beginning of the new trading session!

144min chart is just the downsize scale of the 1440min, 10 bars per day!
On intraday it is quite solid momentum reader.


If you are unable to be specific then i'd suggest
the Daily -120min


hope this will help clarify ? :-)

P.S.
..........
i use mt4

CAN you post indicatif to modify Time frame & candelas

I'm not too concerned about it, the market will ebb and flow the same for everyone, sometimes I'll get entries you don't and sometimes the other way round.

In the long run, this strategy will get us into enough positions to not worry about the odd one missed due to candle formations in different time zones.

I don't think it will matter too much over time so let's not get into a 3 page discussion about gmt+1 etc as happens on most threads. I think my broker daily candle closes about 04:00 gmt but I just put my trades on at approx 23:00 before I go to bed as that's what suits me. Sometimes I get a better price, sometimes worse but I can always adjust the trades in the morning.

I have to say that so far this strategy is working out well for me, currently got 11 positions open. Hope to post some charts later.

My trades so far this week:

Closed
NZ/US - 75
GB/JP +110
US/CH + 51

Open
EU/US +85
EU/JP +94
GB/CH -40
US/CH +15
EU/CA -26
CH/JP + 2

If I were to close every trade now, I'd be up +216 in less than a week. If this were to prove consistent, then there really is something in this strategy. Time will tell, but it's certainly got my attention.

Cheers

Between June1st, 2010 and Jan 2011 the Aud/Usd produced 1583 pips. The chart below is from Ibfx. It is not fair, to show a time period with failed trades and saying this system is a bad idea. You have to look at the whole picture. I didnt even check what this system did during this time with other pairs...
I never said that the system was a bad idea.

I said:

"While the method CAN catch a trend in the early stages, it's weakness is that it can also get into many consecutive losing trades by going against a strong trend, and in very choppy conditions."

That's not criticism, it's just a fact.

Most daily trading systems are looking for a trend that they can get in and ride. They will be wrong more often than not because long trends are usually few and far between. But, a good long trend is what makes up for all the small losers, and then some, hopefully.

This system does it a bit differently. It tries to enter most often by going against the trend, and then hoping that a new trend develops almost immediately in the opposite direction.

Both ways can work, but both ways have weaknesses, and that's OK. It's just good to know what they are.

Some posters appear to be getting good results with it so far, which is encouraging, and I hope that continues.

Robin,
I too noticed this right off the bat. You get a valid sell signal for example in a strong uptrend. There is no corresponding buy signals where the candle enters from below the low EMA because the uptrend is very strong. And this can continue for quite some time.

The solution to this that I am using is fairly simple but it is NOT part of the7's system. What I do is put my stop as per the system, and if, after the sell signal I am stopped out, I go long ONLY if the next candle is a strong bull candle that opens and closes above the high EMA. In other words, if the trend is extremely bearish, then I will trade in that direction.

I still take any new signals to sell - in which case my current buy would be closed out or stopped out. Again - this is in addition to the rules of the system, but I've noticed it lets us stay in very strong trends when they occur.

I'll attach a screenshot of this as an example.

To add even furthermore to this wonderful explanation to which i myself fully concur with.
Observe the level of the closing/opening price of the candle.

As my trading mentor has told me a multiple of times, ...to imagine the bars as the elevator shafts and the levels where the candle is closing / opening as the elevator floor. Some people will be getting out, others will be getting in and the traveling of the new bar continues therefore if the new bar is breaking the floor level of the previous candle, would be something to observe as a natural bias, provided naturally that one has time to observe the market on a more frequent basis!!

On the chart i have marked the closing level of the yesterday's bar as the BIAS level naturally we had a wonderful BULLISH signal on the pound, looking for the continuation and targeting the other side of the "Blue River"

....have fun everyone!!

T h à n k s
I'm afraid the MT4 is not as flexible with the time frames.
I run on the Ninja 7 Platform

Basically, calculate the duration of the market in minutes and apply to your minute chart
So as with any instrument, if want to trade the E-Mini i'd take in consideration the 405 minutes that the cash market is open under.
NY opens at 9:30am-4:15pm that is exactly 405 minutes
Claro ?
