Good one Marty, that's where I cleverly traded out .......S1....I believe some banking news hit the fan...or you will know who spoke....
I got back late from dropping the kids at school, so missed the early move

I'm just about done for the day, I might not even bother with NY session today as daily target is already reached. However, after reading back on our thread I came across the Currency Strength Meter. Henry Liu has a similar one on his website that runs for the desktop, but this one runs from MT4.

As you can see on the screenshot, it lists the strongest currency at the top and the weakest at the bottom. So, in the attached example, you would want to be trading JPY against GPB (which I did hee hee hee), but you would not want to be trading 2 strong currencies against each other like JPY and NZD, or 2 weak currencies against each other like EUR against GPB.

Ideally you would watch this indi at various session open times, or at any other time when you see an entry signal.

Set the 'inputs' to 35, 35, False

Have a play with it.

Yes it would. The mq4 might be available if you search for it, but it might not be too!! There was quite a discussion on the CSM (Currency Strength Meter) on the thread ages ago, and though I wouldn't treat it as the gospel, it should help in spotting strong vs weak, as in JPY/USD as we speak.....and keep us from entering silly trades like JPY/NZD.

There's some more info on Henry Liu's website, but his indi won't run for me, and I like the MT4 version anyway.

Yeah, I prefer the CPM posted here ages ago, still use it, as I have tailored it to the currencies I trade and altered TF to what suits me.

So will stick to the old one.

GU is attached......I also took GJ at the same time even though M15 stoch wasn't perfect. I took it because the trend has been down for some time, and because of the Yen strength across the board on all Yen crosses. The trade doesn't meet the criteria of a text-book Genesis trade so I won't post the chart, but you can see for yourself on your own chart.

I can't (and don't) promise that every trade I ever take will be perfect Genesis trades, there is some discretion involved and that comes from experience. However, the charts that I do post are always Genesis trades. Unfortunately it isn't possible to post 'experience' trades because, well, it comes from experience, and you can (and will) only gain that over time. The more you train yourself on Genesis, there more experience you will gain until you are able to take trades that are a little outside the criteria of the Genesis trades.

You're welcome. I try and post only the best charts that meet the Genesis criteria, but I do take other trades as well, but I don't and won't post them. I know others do the same.

The thing about system trading is that it is not an exact science.....if it was, I would create an EA and retire a rich man!! There was a muppet here a while back who spat the dummy because he couldn't see that this is not, and never will be an exact science. For instance, what is 'overbought?'......is it once the '80' line is crossed?.......what if it only gets to '79?'......does that mean that it isn't overbought?.....technically yes, that's what it means. However, the ebb and flow of the oscillator (and the pa for that matter) does not necessarily adhere to our human rules! That's why we have to use our discretion. If you're uncomfortable doing that, then sit the trade out until a perfect trade comes along, and it will. Eventually, if you keep at it, you will develop this discretion as well, just as we do when we learn to drive, or swim, or anything else.

Yeah, it's not hugely different so it will be the broker. Different offset will probably be the issue. It really irritates me that brokers just will not all set their server times the same. I mean, we have the universal constant of GMT, yet brokers just will not all agree on the same offset. The we have the stupid Sunday candles....grrr...don't get me started!!

Thanks for the reply, RJ. As you can see I am very new to this thread. I am in the process of going through the pages and seeing a few trades unfold in real time on a demo account. I have to say Genesis has made a real difference to my understading of trading (by no means I can say that I have understood it all). I like the educational approach here and the way this thread is co-ordinated. Thanks to you and to the team.
