I see that you don't get any feed back and that is because there is not a .mq4 file available.

Please type your message in small caps (letters) because you are shouting in message terms, that is not what we need.

Be calm and enjoy what you get for free or you can google what you need and pay for it

Many pips to you

Hey spyderman, would it be possible to add your trading account to myfxbook.com? The trade explorer seems harder to read and/or inaccurate.

Spydie great thread great method plus your one of the few who has the courage to run a linked explorer for your system.

Hats off to you.

only thing is the gyrations in your equity are humongous, have you given any thought to running tight trailing stops or some sort of profit lock in method to maintain a smoother equity curve?

Absolutely, I've given a lot of thought to it. And it's one of the things I want to discuss on this thread.

There's definitely a need to adjust that aspect and others.

I've been looking into maybe trailing the stop on a 14 MA rather than the 22. The problem is, obviously, that's going to take you out of a lot of trends that were just retracing. Take a look at the AudJpy below. The 14 MA (gold) would have closed this trade out, and it appears now that it might be turning back up. Whereas the CadJpy would not have closed. My "market sentiment" mentality tells me that if I'm in the CadJpy, I should be in the AudJpy.

The other problem causing the wide swing in equity is the position size. I'm basing this on % of account equity. So at the beginning of a long trend like the Yen crosses, the lot size may be at 1 for example. By the time the trend gets to the top/bottom the lot size might be up to 5. So when things turn, the negative effect is magnified before the stop or trend change is triggered.

I could establish a lot size for a given string at the beginning (in above example 1 lot) and keep it set throughout. The problem with that is that the string might last several months and the account size (hopefully) will have increased to the point where 1 lot no longer makes much sense.

These are definite adjustments that need to be made going forward and welcome anyone's ideas.

Well, I don't know if they're experts or not...I'm sure I'm no expert.

In my mind here is what the 'experts' are saying, at least for today. I call them experts, because they are actually the ones determining Japanese currency policy. And notice, they don't say anything about charts or waves.
