Is it possible trade stocks the same way?
If not, do you have at least a good trailing stop method for stocks like your MA100 one?
I should think it would be possible but it's not something I have tried. I like a 10% trailing stop for stocks.

Have you read "How I made 2 million in the stock market" by Nick Darvas? Worth a look.

Thank you for the book recommendation. I`ll take a look...
So... it is very quiet here. As a matter of fact, I can`t seem to find any pair to take with your system for now. Anyone see anything? I though the EURUSD gave a sign 10 hours ago, but the daily SMA100 was opposite to the hourly one.

Yes, the daily should give you the direction and then watch for the hourly going in the same direction. If it doesn't then no trade.
BDY, is so, what did you meant here by: "You wait for a stoch cross and ha change in any direction on the daily chart. You do not take the trend into consideration"?

While reading the whole post, I feel the system you`re describing there is a bit different from the one you described on your latest PDF from june. Am I wrong? I though the daily and hourly trends must fit, and that we buy after a smooth pull back to the SMA100 line, and not "every stoch cross no matter where on the scale it occurs". Could you clarify that? Am I missing an update after that post?

Maybe you could put your latest update on the system in the first post?

Also, I`m trying to figure the enclosed indicator out. It looks great but plays an annoying alarm every TF shift. Could it be disabled and only send an email/alarm when a new arrow is drawn? I find this indi very useful and with email alarm it could be great!

Do you know any email alarm for HA changing color?

Take a look at usdjpy, it's not my favourite pair to trade but can sometimes produce a good trend.

I believe the latest version that is linked to from the first post says to wait for a signal in the direction of the trend, or at least away from the 100 sma before you move to the hourly.

I don't know who coded the indicator you have but it's not one I have used. There is a very good heiken ashi alert indicator available but I don't have it on this computer, just do a search for it here and you will find it.

There are some traders discussing this system on my site but there aren't many trades setting up at the moment I think. When a good trend appears I will post it here.

I work with this long enough now, from my experience its not enough to fully trade it like it is..but stacking into trend from 1h works very well as long as exit strategy is right.

Xena,

Grabbed 70 pips from the EurAud before it reversed overnight; I am loving this strategy - I actually sorta combine it with Hugh's Quick & Dirty EOD strategy (at least the pending entries on the swing high's/lows). Some other trade setups will be along soon, then I'm sure you will see other postings in this thread also...

Just started using this system. I`ll appreciate some charts...

Could you explain a bit more about the combination of the two systems?

EurCad short or long? Daily is small long and weekly - long long.
AudNZD Long? Can`t see anything special there. Could you explain?

There is nothing special to see just yet I just said they are worth watching. Eurcad is above the 100 sma and the stochs are turning up, which direction would you want to trade that? Audnzd stochs are high and have moved up quite smoothly. there has been a run of green candles towards the 100 sma, what might happen next?

Thanks, Hugh! It is always good when you give a hint. From what I see, when EURCAD D1 HA closes green, I would look for opportunities to enter EURCAD H1 Long on a smooth pullback. And if AUDNZD D1 HA closes red, I would look for oppurtunities to short AUDNZD H1 on a smooth pullback. :-)

I've decided to share one of my trades. I am long on AUDUSD. At the time of entry AU D1 HA closed green (white) and D1 SMA 100 was going up. I understand that it would be better if the price was above SMA 100, but I still decided to take this trade.

AU H1 at the time of entry had a pullback (not very smooth) and bounced from SMA 100. I am taking two legs, with #1 I am targeting the 1:1 target, with #2 I try to follow the trend.

It is probably the entry that Hugh may not take as a valid 100% Swing HA entry, but it would be still interesting to get some feedback. I am attaching the AU H1 and D1.

You got it. Nothing set in stone but we know what we are looking for.

Hi HB or Traders

Anyone can share his/her tpl.
I am not able to set up the HA properly.
Once set in 1 tf, it disappeared in another
Wonder why?

I think HB trading with HA method is very good.

Cheers
