I don't really understand your trades. If you have a different application of the original idea provided by Lebanese please elaborate on it here. Otherwise please don't share link about what lebanese said here and what Smooth said here ... whatever.

I am not trading but lurking this thread since like it was 2 pages old. And I have seen people post irrelevant charts because they didn't knew about the system and they asked and people helped them and they went on to earn and learn. But I don't get it why you are selling on green dots(keep that supply demand/ support/resistance aside please... there are threads for that and you haven't explain your application). Explain or create your own thread. Whatever.

I think some people are just trouble makers. I had issue with someone on my first post. But easy fix, just click the ignore button! I came here to chat and learn, not for rubbish comments.

Comments such as "Trade how you wish" or Smooth Traders "Using the tool in different way" Have been taken out of context buy someone i believe. The person who was talking about supply demand trades is talking about something completely different to the nonlagdot system. And if its not then why not explain why? Just drawing some lines on a chart doesn't explain anything.

And if this person doesnt like undereducated traders then they should probably stay off this web site because its why most people use it for.

This thread is most interesting and informative, so lets just leave the unnecessary comments out perhaps?

And green pips to all!

{quote} L.m I understand your filter ... my question was about your entry 3 . Sorry for not being clear . Your document is very useful Landsat

About entry #3 I was just referring to what Lebaneese wrote in post 2181. In this case in fact the retracement candle doesn't close below the open of the previous up candle, so the filter that I use would not be applied.

{quote} Lebaneese, you might have missed my last post. If so, please see here. You'll notice the charts, entries, exits and the logic behind my approach clearly illustrated there. I appreciate that many traders in this thread are new to trading, but it doesn't mean that they should be spoonfed with signals. In order to succeed, every trader must learn to think for themselves. Green pips to you too.
​you are right and I always say that to the traders, "find your own way" . It is only way to success.

Hello all, here some personal considerations. Though I agree with the principle of "trade your own way", I think it would be better not to post trades that are not relevant with the thread. If I want to learn a different system, well there's a lot of material, so in order not to make confusion I'd stick to the NLD entries. I took the Oil chart, that I don't trade, to show how I filter the trades, hoping someone might find it helpful. Entry 1: as others pointed out, once the price bounces off the round number, moving SL to BE is just the minimum....
​Nice comment LM , now as I see the continuation charts let me finish this trade.
Like I said before , Signal 1 is valid and the best set up, 2,4,6, trades are same direction wouldn't take them because I am already holding one sell position.
Trade 3 isn't trade for me because the price was still high ( high mean the price still at the top , didn't move enough to consider it a wave down .
Trade 5 technically it was a signal , if taken I set BE early and would end as BE trade .
After trade 5 I see the market made a small push down which went lower then my entry point at trade 1 , at that moment BE should be set and also the trade end with BE result .
So as result of all trades on Oil the result was 0 for me. So even in ranging market we can be safe.
Just as Smooth said also trading 1 pair alone has different style than trading a basket .

​Chodu I am not defending Kosmo , our lady can defend her self, she is a good trader.
What kosmo was pointing that you don't have to trade Nolagdot 100% like I am trading , u can use your touch, your knowledge , your information to make it suit better for you or any other trader.
And since the thread start all comments , negative or positive are welcome .

First of all , thank you Mr Lebaneese for your idea of trading and for letting me be here.

Second i believe that every trader can evolve any tactics so he/she can understand better the chart .This is what Kosmos did and so did i .
For Mr Vlad and Mr Chris as we talked yesterday this are my charts and the way i see higher propabilities on a comming trade.

Dear kosmo, I am a new member in FF and I want to tell you that we need in this thread several different "voices". We are all different but we are, in a way, the same. Eg we are all try to catch the trend.
Your method to follow the trend is slightly different than Mr. Lebanese's method.
You use filters to choose your trades. One filter is the daily trend and another one is the relative currency strength.
I think these are great ideas.
All the traders who are following this thread could benefit from your experience.
I have a question for you. Do you use any indicator to find the daily trend? (eg MA or Heiken Ashi candles)

I am planning to use the trend of H4 as a filter to choose trades in M30. The idea is to use the nonlag MA to show me the H4 trend. As you can see in the attached chart when the H4 trend is "blue", we take only long trades and when the filter is 'red' we take only short trades.

Please, can somebody correct the errors?

@Elios: would the trend of 1 Hour not be enough to confirm a trade in 30min TF? (Maybe you have already tried and you got better results in 4h TF).

No H1 trend is not enough. Our lady Kosmo follows the Daily trend.

I think that....
-When you trade in M30 the higher Time Frame must be no less than H4
-When you trade in H1 the higher Time Frame must be no less than D1
-When you trade in H4 the higher Time Frame must be no less than W1
-When you trade in D1 the higher Time Frame must be no less than MN

Replace this :

string stringUpperCase(string str)
{
string s = str;
for (int length=StringLen(str)-1; length>=0; length--)
{
int char = StringGetChar(s, length);
if((char > 96 && char < 123) || (char > 223 && char < 256))
s = StringSetChar(s, length, char - 32);
else if(char > -33 && char < 0)
s = StringSetChar(s, length, char + 224);
}
return(s);

By this :


string stringUpperCase(string str)
{
string s = str;
for (int length=StringLen(str)-1; length>=0; length--)
{
int vchar = StringGetChar(s, length);
if((vchar > 96 && vchar < 123) || (vchar > 223 && vchar < 256))
s = StringSetChar(s, length, vchar - 32);
else if(vchar > -33 && vchar < 0)
s = StringSetChar(s, length, vchar + 224);
}
return(s);
}

For those of you looking into trading NonLagDot on the oil futures (i.e., CL contract), the problem with the 30 min is that the Crude contract doesn't get as many minor pullbacks as the currencies do when it starts taking off. Also, the SL's can become very large. The 10 min chart seems to offer a much better balance. Try it and see.

Here's what you get when you combine simple market logic (which this system is based on, i.e.: impulse => pullback => continuation), with good timing, price action, daily trend, favourable market sentiment (strong vs. weak currencies) and momentum. {image} {image} 110 pips in less than 1 hour, with combined max DD of less than 10 pips. All three trades still going strong, but I've already got what I came for. Another green week in the pocket. The charts below illustrate the logic behind my entries and the actual trades taken. Nothing new - just...
