Hi Clive,

I have a couple questions about the Indis on your charts if you have a couple of minutes.

Firstly, Can you elaborate on what the tick value indi is actually telling you? Is it calculating your lot sizes on each pair for a £1 per pip?

Secondly, your charts show the names of pairs in different colours at the top right. What are those pairs? The trending pairs?

Thanks

Hi

The tick value indy just tells you what lot size to use on your trade depending on the stop size and the percentage of your account you want to risk across each trades stop...

That indy top right is my currency strength indicator and tells you the strongest and weakest currencies on whatever timeframe chart it is sitting on so on a 1 minute chart it tells you strongest weakest from top to bottom on the 1 minute charts. Open up a 5 min chart and it will tell you the same but on the 5 min chart..

The idea is that it shows you top 2 currencies and bottom two currencies so trade the strongest against the weakest, but of course its not that simple as it is constantly changing but its a good indication of whats going on with currency strengths and weaknesses..

Cheers Clive..

Took this long just before having to go to work. I closed out because I had to leave....look how it took off. The ribbon is just the 100LWMA and the 175 LWMA. This is my first trade in a very long time. It felt good.

Thanks again Clive. Much obliged. If you live anywhere near LDN and I make any money I'll buy you a beer or three.

Hi Clive,
It's a shame that you will be less active...;-) Watching the thread was very helpful to me..
You mind even a hint of what values of TTI you consider to be strong tender? 5 min - 200 or more?...
Thanks;-)

Clive, do you use any form of time exit?

Entry a couple of minutes ago, close due to slight market reversal.

Hi,

Can anyone advise on how to download ex4 files to mt4. I'm struggling to find the true trend cci to upload, also every attachment from the beginning of this forum won't upload, from what i've read they need to be mq4 files?

Thanks.

i think you under estimate how very well harry is doing..trading live with the hurst band method i recommended and that you gave up on.Ive got 7 guys who have read this thread and have adopted hurst method and doing well and are on my skype.I personally am doing very well with 3 of my systems....hurst harmonics and 1 given to.me by a pro trader which i am not allowed to disclose......i also think harry comments were aim at silly questions being asked and that no one is willing to do homework.For exampleLoading indicators into mt4 or downloading a indicator from the thread....answers simply found by google.As for.me.....im all self.taught by reading posts and trying things out.Happy trading
