Spidey,

Unbelievable! Your account is up 60% in just the past two weeks...you are currently running +23,000 pips in profit...and there are only 3 people viewing this thread? My gosh! What does it take to get traders involved?

Keep up the good work!

Yeah, things are moving along well for now. Not much for people to look at I guess. Being a long term trend strategy, there's not a lot of bells and whistles to keep peoples attention.

That's okay though. Less typing for me.
I know you've used to play around with the TDI.
How come you dont use it anymore?
Thoughts are things
Well we had some contrary news coming out of Japan last night.

I'd love to bail on the Yen pairs, but I want to see how the system exit signal comes through. We'll see if it stabilizes today.

Looks like about 330% since 11/19/12 if you factor in all the losses to date.

The particular strategies I used the TDI on just didn't seem to perform for me. Looking back at the PI pairs, I don't think it would have performed as well as the MACD I'm using.
i am here at forex factory for years, and i think you are one of the best manual trader i ever seeing so far.
your trading way on the daily chart,by far more reasoneble than trading the 5 m or 1 m charts.

Well thank-you for the nice words. Time will tell yet whether this strategy plays well in the long term.
As some have already noted, I've benefited from quite a run on the JPY pairs. And yet, that's the point
of a trend following system. There are going to be trends, you just have to be patient enough to be there
when they happen.
Spidey, I have been following the thread for a few weeks and have been testing out with very small lots. Looks great! But I just wanted to point out an observation. It looks like the JPY crosses seem to work out the best if I look back in time. They seem to trend very well. I haven't crunched any numbers, but obviously you have seen what they have done in the last month or two! Keep up the good work. I will post more as I start to trade more. Thanks!
Hi Spyderman
I have been following this thread and it looks really good so far. Maybe I am mistaken but it seems recently you have closed some trades but the MACD hasn't crossed over yet. e.g. you closed a EURJPY trade but the MACD is still very much above 0. Can you explain why please?

Ed,

Thanks for following. I'm not sure what you're referring to, but no, I haven't closed any of the JPY trades yet. I checked my platform this morning and none have hit, or are close to hitting, s/l's either. I can't tell from my vantage point exactly what you guys see on the trade explorer, so not sure what may have made you see that.

Yeah, as he mentions the zero line is just another ema. In this case it's the 22 ema. When the MACD line (7 ema) crosses the zero line its the same as the 7 ema crossing the 22 ema in the chart above. It's just a more graphically easy way of seeing it and the histogram adds to that.

In your opinion, how different 7/22 against the standard setting 8/26?
