Pedross,

It is nice when you watch it picking up slowly in to positive territory. Takes it's time though I have to say but guess for today all is slow as Miss Pretty Sandy is out about in Town!! Hurricaine I mean.

Just a quick question any one, so the chart candles is actually a collections of the movement of the 14 Pairs right? ie one single candle = 14 pairs movement rolled in to one?? Can some one clarify this.

Thanks and more pips to us all.

Good morning

Due to the MTF nature of VQ, Kos, are you only taking trades each hour, in order to be sure that VQ will not change?

Thank you
once the vqzz2 4th bar closed, it will not change again, and HAS follows thats all

the D1 price still above HAS and VQ is blue + MACD Blue, the main direction is still upsideand now it is undergoing correction. I will wait 15 min break upward to long rather to short now.
more indicators more confusion

For exit's at BE, after +150pips is reached, do you use the bar's close above/below the entry point to close your trade or do you use inter-bar high/low price levels? I ask cause I am doing some analysis to see if adding a different exit makes sense and/or adding my trendlines makes sense and what happens when you for example ditch eurchf (witch is on hold by the SNB). I will post my findings as soon as I have the time to finish it (probably tomorrow).
pbb,

After BE, I don't really care where it goes and how long it goes there. I just leave it to play out. That is why I don't even worry my head about trailing profit. Once its time to close HAS will show up.

But please I am interested in the result of your analysis, so that we would improve and maximize profit. Please post your findings.

you are so correct, its calculates the 14 pairs and uses the calculation to build the offline one candle.

The truth is I never had success with single pair trading, its either I choose to enter GBPJPY and feeling good as it is going and GBAAMM!! a news hit USD and because USD is connected to JPY my GBPJPY trade would be messed up bigtime.

But in the 14 pairs offline chart they are woven as one pairs and we can then capture them together and as they are carefully selected if USD is hit GBAAMM!! and it begins to pull others, do the crossing out of the pairs you will see the connections.

not really, arrange the 7 sell pairs and 7 buys pairs, then be cancelling them out, you will see the one EURCHF is suppose to be hedging out. though it hardly brings profit this days.

You can remove it and its partner and trade 12 or even 8 pairs but you have to balance the selection or else there would be some leakage in the bonding of the basket, which can in turn affect your profit.

Sorry Kos, me again.

So if you always wait for the VQ 4th bar to close, you are trading H1, not M15 right?

P.D. I hope you donīt mind. I have asked Steve Hopwood for coding an EA for this. If he does it, I can post here the link to his thread in order to have yours clean from EAīs questions.

Hi kos. I decided to exit on Friday and found a re-entry on Sunday evening. Do you find it better to hold through the weekend so to avoid paying twice the spread?

hi txfxtrader!

I like holding through the weekend most of the time, and on few occasions I close especially when the profit is not very deep.

the spread can be truly anyway, but its better to close and re-enter than let the weekend gap crush the profit.

At market open, watch with the spread indicator to ensure the spread is back to normal before entry cos the spreads use to be atrocious around open/close of the market.

that's the proper re-entry method, it just gets you in the flow.
that's what I have not been able to code into my EA, i.e. for the EA to be watching HAS on 5min TF, I will soon add that to the EA too
