{quote} Might not get time I'm afraid as got some family commitments plus I'm not sure where I am with my trading, just thinking this is getting a bit too complicated for me again looking at higher timeframes.. Might have to go back to my simpler trading style of , if its going up buy it, if its going down sell it...Only need 20 pips per session to make my fortune so just going over some previous ideas and combining it with the TMAs as targets etc... Will get my ideas together so If I don't post today will post durring the week ... Sorry guys to...
clive the beauty of the hurst channels is you can trade any tf you like.i dont think anyone will.disagree that m1 leads price action and should trade from there.as far as higher timeframe is concerned i think its good to just check the longer term picture of price and potential direction
i think im feeling the same as you clive....clarity in your mind of what your doing and how your trading.i do wander if looking at multiple pairs may confuse the mind...maybe take a leaf from harry book..trade just one or two pairs

Clive as I said to you this afternoon I think you are right to go for the most simple form of trading you can. Keep it simple know the signals you want to take and sit back and take them. For the rest of the people reading this we do NOT need 100's of pips a day we only need a few with a high lot size to walk away happy every day.

Each to there own style of trading and there own style of money management.

not always do we need big lot size.

sometimes that can be a bad thing

But jason this is clives thread and it seems to me that its diverging into those who want to trade simply and on a lower TF and those who want to trade with more complexity on higher TF. So maybe those people need to move to a new thread to discuss this?

seems to you but no one else!!!this group is not diverging !!There is no issue with the method unless you want to justify an issue.price starts on m1 and the method of clive is m15 and lower .clive has said many time his method etc and is going to update again.

Hi All,

Everything was working fine until I had to reload MT4 on my computer and now I am getting the current timeframe channel for only about 15 bars back and the higher TF channels for about 100 bars back. See the attached.

Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Devon but I had tried that and it didn't work. I just sorted the problem. Since the weekend my broker began throttling my demo account feed in some manner that affected the data made available to the FastLine indicator. So I have now set up an alternative demo account with another broker and it works fine again.

Clive,I dont know if you have experienced a situation where the alert gives sound that a pair has just changed slope.whilst you place trade accordingly after 3minutes another alert will then come up signalling the opposite direction?

go to 1 minute chart and hold the up arrow button to load history, If not drag this script onto a chart to force history updates on all symbols. That should do it/
