Great trading , how much do you trail by?? Have you an EA to manage your trade after you get in??

I've one but its broke since I've updated MT4 it just doesn't work any sense. Its a clever little thing sets initial stop, trails in placing pending orders to enter , goes to BE and trails by a number of candles rather than pips so trails behind say 2 candles or whatever you set it at. When it was working it was awesome little thing just dropped it on a pair you fancied when CCI signaling and it did the rest for you. Also has commission offset for BE's with commision.

If you fancy having a look at it here it is, would be great to get it working again...saves a lot of faffing about..dragging orders about..

Actually theres two one for sell entries and one for buy entries...

I trail buy 8 EMA on Heiken Ashi high and low, but there are many other possibillities an case of all 24 MAs. Just search the threat for ManualTrader.

Here, not testet but try.

Nice trading.... 10% in one session and only risking our 1 to 2% I guess???

I was pretty pleased with my 50pips for a 5% gain but 10%?? nice....

I messed up a bit today trading with the 200HMA just seems to lag a touch too much so back to the 120HMA which basically says we're going up or we're going down...Nice and simple..

Thanks for doing the Experts , did you find much amiss? Will give em a quick run and see how I get on,

cheers

Hi Clive....
Right now for the NYOpen (1m chart), there's a lot CHF pairs that I don't like it .... So, I'll pass to 5 min charts .... Question : In 5 min charts is valid the "<20 pips rule from the 100lwma" ??

I'm afraid thats probably one of the rules I sort of disregarded over time but I am still convinced the better moves come from closer to the MA so not a bad rule to stick to, bit different on 5 min charts probably a bit more like 50 pips... but not sure, pull a couple of 5 min charts up and you're soon see how too far away from the MA and signals get a bit iffy..

Hope that helps..

My first day results with your system Clive , only 2 major loss from 29 trades +75 pips should have been more except for a bad exiton the two losses. Ill carry on see how I go but this is very promising. Also have a couple ideas if you are interested .
Best regards Peter

Trinquete : I can see that your yellow vertical line represents the NYopen, but , what about the green vertical line ??
2nd question : Is it your lwsma at 100 ?? I mean, in my chart, the price is a little far from the lwsma ...., can you answer me, please ??

These where the first two trades I entered on another demo acc. + 24 with some different rules , but was only up +4 at the end of 6 more trades,so i changed the entries a little.
BTW I checked back those two losses on post5469 , i should never have entered ,, I entered into a lot of resistances across all TF up to 4 hr , my bad
