5 PIPS - Only Five

First page.
You market 4 entries (after the fact i guess).
Aren't there much more?
Candle crosses 5 EMA and closes beyond it convincingly, right?

No valid?
Simple strategy: M15 chart price crosses M15 consinvingly and closes beyond, buy/sell next open. Stop loss beyond logical spot like sr or ma where is more likely to have a reversal.

EU +5, +10 TS, +30. I am done for the day. When trading a Discretionary Entry Method, you HAVE TO UNDERSTAND AND RECOGNIZE Price Action, with out that understanding you are Doomed. Forex Factory is not the place to learn How To Trade, it is a great place to explore, find the method that works best for you and enhance the knowledge you have gained, after you have learned the basics.

Babypips.com is one of the most respected teaching sites on the web, it is free, it is extremely well thought out and literally thousands of newbies have learnt the basics of trading there.
Do yourselves an enormous favour and go there and complete the course, if you don't you will become just another statistic.

I wish you all luck, although, Trading is a Skill and luck plays only a very small part.

On my MT4 the previous bar to the one you opened on closed above the 5MA (close=1.13254, 5MA=1.13252) so that should have been your entry. Easy 5 pips right?

You're not following the rules so it's not worth checking your other examples.

Exactly.

And is what I'm trying to show using this misleading conception in live trading enviroment.

Even 5 pips ain't easy task. It may need YEARS of experience to be able to pull even 5 god damned pips out of the market.

Please show me on chart I don't understand what you are saying. I have a bear candle who closes below 5 MA and sell at the next.


An other fresh signal BULL candle crosse ma and closes above, buy on next candle open

I'm just trying to run the simple strategy that he presented in the first pages.

M15, 5 EMA 2 shift (2 shift is important remember!), candle crosses the 5 EMA convincingly and closes beyond, buy/sell next candle open. 5 pips and gtfo.

Only thing I add is some logical stop beyond sr or ma where is likely to have a reversal continuation. Let's say not losing more than 3 or 4 times what the target is (5 pips) otherwise not using stop is so silly that you can burn your entire account with 2 trades or even 1 if price dosen't come close to entry again.

Hi TradeForexFX,

I am interested in the Dashboard.

Can I install just the Dashboard on its own or do I have to install all other files as well? If it is possible to do which one do I need, is it Dashboard 5 Pips Only -r.mq4 or the other one?

Many thanks.
Target reach on eurusd. 5 pips. Bull candle crossed convincingly 5 EMA and closes above. Buy next candle open. Target 5 pips.

My friend I'm just trying to be as objective as I can. I don't need to be right. Just show the truth. We all know how much time and dollars we wasted on misleading stuff on forums, internet, guru trading courses, etc.
No fresh signals for this quarter M15 close. Need some BULL/BEAR candle cross 5 EMA convincingly and convincingly close beyond and then we can buy or sell on next candle open. We look for a change in sentiment, as the presenter told us.

And please let me know if I'm doing something wrong, maybe I didn't understand the simple strategy correctly.

No you defiantly don't understand this simple strategy
you do not have to take every single trade that crosses the 5ema
take your time and pick the right ones look at your charts look at the HA candles, look at the RSI
look at sentiment, look at the price action
If you saw this chart at the start of your trading day, what would it tell you, in advance. Would there be any Low Risk entries any where?

No, this is the original strategy he stated. He said that 5 pips is easy task. Just need M15 chart and a 5 EMA 2 shift. Le'ts do this then.

Heiken ashi, RSI, pivot points, support and resistance, trendline, sentimen, price action came later, but guess what it ain't easy stuff you need years to learn price action an this is not the purpose of the thread as he presented.
