Patguay,

Welcome to the thread. It comes down to the old saw...the more bad pips you filter out, the more good pips you fail to get. I really don't know the best way. It's something each trader will have to work out in keeping with their own trading style. Bobcat mentioned earlier not taking the first cross and waiting for an "addon" signal. That may help in many cases. However there are always those trades that make a cross and then head parabolically upward or downward. Your going to miss those kinds of moves.

So far I'm content...
So in reality, it is hard to screen out those currency pairs which is undergoing sideway trends. Anyway, I have entered 7 positions with different currency pairs, 5 are non JPY cross. It is remarkable to note that within 10 hrs, my position has appreciated 6% of my capital. I guess by increasing the sample size, it will help to offset the losses and reduce the significance contributed by individual "side way" currency pairs. I will add more to it when any currency pair fulfil your stated criteria.
Well the trades have pretty much all turned for the good again. With the weakening Yen and the strength of the Aud & Nzd there are a lot of strong trends going.

As positions get piled on it just makes things grown exponentially. Tough not to take profit, but then what.

I remember a quote earlier in the thread in response to taking profit and running:

I was thinking the same thing. Of course if that doubles again in a few days or week, we would both look the fool..

So I'll stick to the course. Time may tell that it would be wise to trail the stops on all trades, at least to a couple of hundred pips. But there have already been a couple times (like on UsdJpy) where we had a significant retrace (162 pips) and then the trend resume. I'll have to think about that one.

This looks like a great system Spyde, it seems like it's really difficult to figure out when a market is consolidated or ranging, but it sure pays off when it's trending. Even when it is consolidating, we have a set stop loss, while when it is trending profits can go through the roof like in the CADJPY pair. I will be following this system and also trying to demo trade as well on the Daily Charts. I really like the idea of adding trades on when the trend is continuing.

Are all those trades that are in the open trades section, not counted in your All time return of 10,678 pips? So technically you would have 17353+10678 pips = 28031 Pips? I was just curious. Good luck with everything Spidey. Your system looks phenomenal!

And also, I guess the EURCHF pair is an obvious no trade pair, because of the price floor by the ECB. So fundamentals do come into play!

I haven't added up all the lost pips, but currently I have 18,000 pips of floating profit.

As long as the Swiss Franc stays pegged to the Euro I won't trade the Chf pairs. Theirs no point, they mirror their Eur counterparts. The only exception is that I trade the NzdChf rather than the EurNzd because I get a better spread on my broker.

Not very well...

I'll be closing a -200 pip trade at the end of the day. The Euro news today killed those short positions.

Yeah according to the news they're projecting the Yen to go to 90 vs. the dollar. That would be another 1350 pips on that pair. I have 9 positions currently. If it goes to 90 against a weak dollar it should move very well vs. the Commodity countries

I just keep waiting for the bottom to fall out.

Yes it could have a lot of movements again so trade safe and take profit on several trades before seeing a reversal
Trade Safe !
