{quote} Sir, what are you still doing with IA. do this assignment: look at the 14 pairs, fish the core-5 pairs out, check which side of the 14 pairs IA they belong to, and answer your own question. You have not yet come to the realisation of the importance of the offline chart over the IA kos
Sir Kos, thanks for the tip. Actually I am not thinking of constructing an IA per se, just trying to work out some ideas in head, that's all. Many thanks and good karma to you sir.

Strange, all 5 pairs (AJ, NU, EJ, GJ, GU) fall into the buy side, no sells!

Mine closed out at BE + 100. Second floating in red, hasn't hit SL yet.

Were you long or short on the 800 pip basket?

i want to "donate" some reflections

im still at bed with my discal problem and i have a lot of time to think.

i think with Kafka books, Murakamis main characters and in trading xD

ok,

i think that we are losing the principles of trading,

all the "good" traders follow some patterns to enter in a possible trend.

one of this is the 1,2,3 pattern, nop?

i combined this simple and paleolitic idea with with simple HAS (2,25,2,25) in 1h chart.

this method is to follow the trends with 14 pairs, then we need a lot of time.

in this simple image we can see how we saved two loss trades:

http://i40.tinypic.com/347cqol.jpg

this two trades are some thoussand of points more in our pockets.

and here another image with the actual situation.

http://i41.tinypic.com/hv0w0z.jpg

now i see that the HAS has changed to green, but i want to wait toprice corsses the piramid.

the complicated in this method is know how to draw the 1,2 steps.

First to all, we nee to wait to HAS changed the color and then that the price done the retracement,

sometimes is of 100 points and another times of 300 points.

patience!

and...another pretty question...when exit?

hahahah

this is the QUESTION.

how said a friend: the difficult not is enter...the difficult if know when close the trade.

i think that a good way to manage the entries is with a simple 1,2 steps (again)

in a perfect trend we have a pretty road

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

i start drawing the steps when the market moves more thatn 400-500 points.

i dont know...

i only want to colaborate and help the basketting comrades.

regards!

been short since 188 , moved Sl to 184 , will move it to 181 once price goes to 178 . My target is 172.
This is the reason No EA can be perfect, i would wait for price to retrace to resistance to take a short trade and Support to take a long trade.

My entry was also around 184 (184.6), it's now SL. 3280 just turned red so I added a second basket.

I'm used to trading PA using pin bar reversals from SR levels on daily chart.

I agree with the EA statement.

That's nice KOS. Are you using XO 800 or tweaked further? My entry is couple of candles later with HAS29212. Wish me this down trend moves further down to take in entries if H4 and Daily using HAS only. Some how the XO is giving me too many color changes. May be due to data feed. I want to correct it to match your XO shown above.

stopped at 184, for a gain of 400 pips, longer term trend still shows short, leaving a sell limit at 189.
