Dear ALL

I am interested in this system but I want to use this system in Gold. However, I don't know the optimize setting for Gold trading.
If anyone has experience, please share the profitable setting.

Thx you so much
Funny question to ask a bunch of currency traders. But as it happens I trade gold futures and theres no reason this shouldn't work on spot.You just gotta spend the time and do your own research - system is free settings have to be of your finding.

Think, when you are dealing with currencies it's one dollar point x
When you are dealing with gold it's one thousand fourteen dollars point x.
You must get a handle on how the indicator works and the future EA.
Study the results you get when you plug in different numbers, and I am sure you will get what you want and need.
If you don't.....it will not serve you well.
Good luck in all your endeavors.

Yeah I know was just trying to point out to the guy he needs to do some work himself not expect a free ride.

I trade commodities and equities with a longer term view whilst currencies intra day. Been trading breakouts for years on cable and euro. Look forward to the ea and good luck to you too.

Sorry C345, my comment was not directed at you. Needless to say it was directed at Kong_28.
I am not very astute at using this type of communication, eventually I may get it.

I'm still working with an open trade set from yesterday so I'm not really watching it, but there's a really nice CZ on Cable right now for anyone that's looking for some pips tomorrow. Just 13.3p tall in fact. Good luck to anyone who gets there in time...

Hi bot4us,
I have built an EA incorporating the specs I have seen in the Indi and methods used here in this thread.
In the spirit of this thread I will send you (and anyone else who wants it) a free copy if you want it. It backtests well using certain parameters.
I have already built it and am using it successfully so if you want a copy (and some backtesting results for various parameters), then email me at ([email protected])

This thread has been very generous to my understanding so I am giving back...
Hi johnbridgesfx,

I sent you my email about 20 hrs ago, but i haven't received your reply with the EA, I hope everything is OK.

Regards
JTH

Hi johnbridgefx, not take my request as a reminder, I wanted to be sure that you had received my email on December 10

I have been using the Indicator and manually trading this system for two weeks now. I have settings for several pairs. I only trade a max of two BO per box, and the initial trade must hit the quick profit target at least 66% of the time to be considered for trading. I risk 1% per trade. I am trading at the beach on my VPS from my IPad so I can not post any pics at this time, but the results are very good.

Last nights trades: long eur/usd long eur/Jpy and long nzd/usd all hit profit targets and are now closed. Long GBP/AUD is still open. I am waiting a close of GBP/usd over 1.61 roundie to confirm the BO long of the recent congestion zone.

Anyway, Thanks for sharing your system FH. Another great tool for the toolbox.

FWIW, I have been a full time currency trader for 10 years now. This is the best box breakout system I have come across. My initial skepticism has been replaced by confidence due to the results. I had been trying to develop a solid BO system, and you have saved me reinventing the wheel. Thanks once again.

thanks forexhard,
I just finished reading over 4000 previous posts and I am not regretting the effort made, thank you for your willingness to publicly discuss a serious strategy, which I find relaxing, with a useful indicator extremely flexible.

Welcome to all you new guys that just posted!

I love waking up to charts that moved in my favor while I was sleeping! 13 hours ago I posted a very nice looking CZ on Cable. So far it's given up 35p. Did anyone here grab it?...
