Didn't have a good evening last night, so I've decided now I'll start posting my trades for feedback. Took 6 pips, when it faltered at the 75 level; too much resistance in that area; thought it was worthwhile taking a short since it's run up of 260 pips today. {image}

That chart looks about as good as it gets to me....

Both MAs red price under them both , break and retest of the 2.0000 level nice place for your stop, and a perfect first CCI signal after the turn down..

Also a solid exit as it came back at you so at least you got something from it... Bit unlucky it didn't do more for you but thats just the way it goes but if you keep taking these types of entries you will have a edge that will work for you in the long run, I'm sure...

Both your charts have the right look about them with MAs agreeing and price the right side too..
Feel the Fear and do it anyway!!!

Hi Clive,

What are the 2 moving averages you have on your charts?

Also, could you advise what the rules are for trading this strategy? I have looked through a few pages and cant seem to find them.

Thanks.

Hi Jason.
No I have had only losses and I must be honest, I feel like just closing the live account, draw the money and go and get p*ssed. At least I can show something for it.
Any special time of the day you trading or is it just the 30 min window after LO?

sent you a pm. i've been spending more time on 5min tf, this has kept me from jumping into too many trades. best time is after LO and US open.

Hi Pipglutton
Clive's Method is very much like Bill Williams Method which is a standard package on MT4 and most platforms,
Clive's avgs = Bill Williams Alligator
Clive's ABC = Bill Williams Fractal
Clives CCI = Bill Williams AC & AO indicators
Take a few steps back and read all about it, you will find his setting have been well researched and set in stone, plenty of stuff to look at, just google then try picking and getting a understanding of 1 pair then move on to more and more pairs as your understanding grows, if you wish to add a few more indicators into the mix, try Pivots and ATR, even Murrey Maths lines, all helpful.
Do not get hooked up on just 1 min timeframes you must look at others as well to get the big picture.
I am not knocking Clive's Method its just that if you read about Bill Williams Method you will get a better understanding were Clive comes from even if he does keep changing things from time to time

without concrete rules to any trading plan then you have no plan. I think clive has a trading plan the key is to stick to it and not change the plan

EUR strength across the board so thought I'd have another go but got spiked in a touch early but as I've Banked just over 20 pips from first move I'll give it some room to manoeuvre...
