{quote} 20 pips is 20 pips......even if you are supposed to working...lol...tsk tsk!!
Entry wise is quite easy, Thanks to Genesis indi that gives alert,
But it is hard to monitor the chart for exit and doing my job at the same time
Anyway I am getting more and more steady with Genesis
Thanks to Genesis team for developing and sharing the system
I also find it helpful when people posted charts so i can learn from there
So thanks also to those who has posted their charts
Happy pippin to all

May I ask a question? Hope you don't shoot me, I confess I have not read all the thread. I am using a 5min chart... I decided to add a second genesis 2.21, for 1 hr... so i set input to 60 for it. But I notice that that does not give the same picture as if i simply load that indi onto a 1hr chart. So do I have to run 2 charts per pair (or keep flicking back and fore)? Also, it appears to repaint. I saw it repaint 4 bars yesterday morning, ie 4 hours. Please comment.
Unless you want a telling off from RJ you should not mention repainting
The indies DO NOT REPAINT you are looking at an H1 matrix on an M5 chart, it will change colour until that bar has closed on H1.

My first post on FF to join the huge amount of congratulations and thanks from appreciative traders for this thread and the people who made it so useful. Thank you RJ and “friends” and posters for this excellent thread and remarkable system. The (not so short) story is: I have been trading for about 10 years. I trade futures (yes I am one of those…and I even traded options for a while!!!)). Started looking more seriously into Forex more recently (diversification, more TA-bound..etc.) I still have some annoying issues on Forex, like MT4 (don’t like...
I am not a fan of MT4 either.....for trading....which is why I don't use it for trading. But I do love the charts and all the cool things we can do with them. As Marty was saying the other day, he uses some non-Genesis system which is why he doesn't post charts, and that's fine.....you are in the same boat I see. I think many people to that, and it's all good, just as long as we keep the thread clean for newcomers to learn from, and not let it turn into a monster with everyone adding their favourite ini until the whole thing looks like a dogs dinner!! There's good money to be made with the system as is.....but as people gain experience, both in the system and in the markets, they may customise it to suit themselves and leave the nest and fly away, so to speak.......that's the whole point of the thread. IMO, it's probably the best launching pad available!!!
We have some great traders here and some talented people helping out so if we all work together, we can all take the banks money!!

I also do not post trades here although I am following this thread every day from day one.
I do not post charts since although my entries are 100% Genesis, I use something extra for my exits which is not part of the system
Moreover I trade indices only (FTSE, DAX and DOW) which do not seem to be of special interest here.
Just those three. Nothing more.
They offer smoother moves with clear trends and less tricks by the big players. Also low spread. Super correlated as well
One can "attack" stop levels in currencies. You will not see such moves in the above indices.
As I said I do not like posting (bragging) charts. I will just post one (without my exit indices) so that to see my template in case someone finds it usefull.
My gratitude to RJ and team who really took my trading to another level.

A question......how have you found the stoch tapes?.......you like them?

{quote} A question......how have you found the stoch tapes?.......you like them?
The advantage is maybe the same! You can not see how are they positioned!!!
You just see if they are rising or falling.
If I was to use just one stoch (that is the M15 since for me M5 is not of any particulary use), I would like to see the graph of the stochastic in order to better understand the pair's or indices behaviour.
Here though if you use M15 plus H1 stoch, the tape is just fine.
I also use three arrows (M5,M15,M30).
I want my trades to be fast and (relatively) safe. Which means I do not wait for M15 or M30 arrow to close.
The moment the market finds the strength to push the three arrows and two stochs to the same direction, as soon as I have the M5 matrix closed I consider the move to be strong enough and safe enough to enter.
Exit is another story
