{quote} Good trading Clive We can do it and just need to keep @ it and follow our rules. Rule based trading is still the best to keep you disciplined and your emotions under check. I have not changed my philosophy of taking whatever the market gives me as it adds up. Remember our conversation - 20 pips per day is all we need {image} Going for a snooze Shalom friends

Had a nice snooze for about 3 hours and came back to add few more pips before leaving for work to bring total pip haul to 57.

I strongly recommend trading this system just after market opens but when I opened my charts tonight this is what I saw....

The three top trenders really going for it simple system take the CCI signals around the 35LWMA break and retest are the best entries as you can see..

Number one EURNZD..

Number two EURAUD...

Number three GBPJPY...

I think the secret is to only take the first couple of entries per run and bank half, hold half until the run finishes when the slope changes back again..

Staggeringly simple....Too simple some say....

I take even the smallest moves so I am not trading with the TTindy but do catch big trenders as well. The question for me is, how much is the indicator lagging behind. When I check those big trenders, most often the 1st, sometimes even the 2nd and 3rd CCI signals have already appeared and an entry would be late.

You'll see ABCD moves all over the charts just like this GBPJPY move from a few minutes ago soon as the pullback finishes, green line and the new down trend begins, red line then take the first signal you can...

I' not hand picking these charts they are happening right now as I type ,its the TTindy opening them up for me to trade, but I'm not going to because its not "the right time of day" but it makes me wander??? What is the right time of day????

This is definitely my final system there is nothing to improve on I can't imagine how to improve it, it works so well on any timeframe its bloody awesome!!!!

Good piont and an area of concern however I consider it like this, although I call it the 5 min trend eg 35 LWMA from 5 min chart it actually just shows me the days general direction so its just saying which pair is generally moving well today. Therefore I feel comfortable that its showing me the meat of the move the very middle bit that we're all after where the trend is frimly set.

After the reversal when the fighting is going on and before the fading at the end...

Its a period in the trend on which we can depend on good moves, right in the middle, just my opinion of course...

You also have to be selective as to what you trade its not enough that its in the top 8 it also has to give us our pullback and return back with the trend as per the charts above...so wait for the CD leg to start after a good AB leg you can expect a similar run from the next turn, AB=CD...

Its early days but all I can say is I've never felt so confident trading in all my life, it just feels so right. Not only that but I have taken £25 to £210 in about a week so if that continues I'll rest my case. Early days but things are looking very positive right now....

Just remember the TTindy is just an indicator and like all indicators you have to seek confirmation from the price action, but what we have here is a system that gives you very small losses and yet nice fat juicy winners if you get it right...and whats more plenty of them.

But don't take my word for it give it a go tomorrow and see how it flys.....

Subscribed... This thread ruffled my feathers!
What a great job has been done here... I do follow FF since 2008 and perhaps never post, i do read it a lot and coincidently
this system is similar to what i was tryng in the past using bollinger bands coupled with CCi.
But yours is much richer in details like the ABC and Top_Trenders stuff that makes a lot of difference to the approach.
All this info and better quality of your indys gave me new wills to try my odds with it again...

There's a lot to read and learn yet but one thing i noticed from your templates is how close your 35lwma matches the 20SMA from the bollinger bands...
Well, that's all for now, thanks again for all the people that contribuited in someway to this great post.

Hi I think you're using the old HMAs sorry but I've gone back to using 35LWMAs but the ones I use are colour coded and have an alert so that I can set it to alert me whenever I get a colour change as thats the ideal time to look for your break and retest entry on the 35 LWMA if you like the look of the chart when alerted.... Here is my latest two templates one to actually trade with which you will need to rename as "Default" if you want the TTindy to open the top trending 5 minute pairs for you... Use the No Fear Trading System 5 min master on one...
works fine. thank you very much !!

You're welcome its probably the better one to use anyway as the other ones only benefit is it has alerts on it but I think its a bit processor heavy as my charts appear slow again with it on. Maybe you could add a slope alert to the MA in Colour one??
