{quote} Targeting a fix number of pips from my point of view is a mistake. If you target 15 pips why not at 15 pips start a trail from 2 pips behind (at 13pips) and keep that 2 pip's difference always when the market move in your favor or just close by SL if the market drop 2 pips for highest reach. One of my yesterday trade posted in MT4 Trading the GAP With Excel end in profit 30 pips by using a 7 pip target with 2 pips trail. So basic what happen there? The market went in my favor 32 pips then drop to 30 pips and I close the trade. Until I reach...
Hi project, can you please post the EA you use to do such a TS ?

Thank you,

After a totally crap Tokyo session with no setups at all, finally some movement after London Open...

Trade #1: CADJPY to TP
Trade #2: GBPCHF to TP
Trade #3: NZDJPY with a 8.1 pip TP right below the DR1, just the way I like it
Trade #4: NZDCHF to TP
Trade #5: CADCHF to TP
Trade #6: another NZDJPY with (again 8 pips) to TP
Trade #7: another NZDCHF hit SL, still wondering what went wrong here
Trade #8: GBPCAD to TP

{quote} Already doing that, and all data go direct to excel, based on my MTF intervals checking the potential pips that I can reach in that intervals. It will be hard to argue with veterans of this threat, but for me TS is just more profitable then TP . Also I didn't manage to find any profitable settings for EA's WUKAR , APTM, MTPM or anything similar in the market. This EA's are not build for a FIFO system. So need's to be something custom.

Trailing at 0.1 pip should not be a problem at all for any broker, just use Wukar 1.3.2e and hide your trailstop !

If you are so concerned with latency (trust me, you shouldnt be unless your ping is in excess of 150ms), I can recommend running a VPS on i.e. forexvps.net.
You did not hear this from me, but they happen to have a server rack in the very same room on Wall Street as i.e. the IC Markets trade server (and some other brokers)
You will get a round trip delay - the time clocked between sending a data packet from your MT4 platform to the brokers trade server and back - of 0.1ms on average. Having said all that, I does not mean your broker will respect your (hidden) stoploss, trailstop, etc. but at least you are minimising adverse latency effects.

If you refer to your own EURJPY trade yes, RmUp was in red and that trade was not taken on a 00 or 50 level (unless you had really bad slippage on live).

My trades no, ADR had not been reached at the time of taking the trade.
At the time of taking the screenshots maybe on some, but thatīs a different story.

Again if anyone thing that calculating a SL based on Win/Lose % desire , or probability or just a average bar measure is totally wrong and I can't agree not even to this thing SL has to be even smarter and better calculate then TP.

You don't need to agree with me, I just said for me TS is better then TP, and just explain few of scenarios that could happen to rest of peoples and why TS can very easy be unprofitable, if one of that scenario happen.

And in the END , I will not going to put any of my trading system on a VPS that I don't personal own the hardware.

Oh yea just paranoia none of this company's use backdoors, and they are too big to care about our trading systems

Green pips to everyone

No, I would not put my trading system on a VPS. I was suggesting running only a Metatrader platform on a VPS in parallel.

It depends, in this CADJPY trade right at the open of the M30 candle. Triggered 10 seconds later, TP on the turn of the hour.

No more trading today, wishing everybody a good weekend.

1. No trading on mobile phone. If you cannot sit in front of a PC itīs better not to trade at all.
2. Whatīs the use of all those overlaid indicators in the bottom row if you donīt act on them ? 2 candles prior to your entry (on close of the "big" red candle) all signalled red for a short, but you did not enter....
3. GBPJPY M15 candles have a range of approx. 20-25 pips. You are entering a trade when the M15 candle has already moved 25 pips !!! Thatīs not exactly a high probability setup.
4. Your coral indicator is blue. I donīt use it, but is it not signalling you to stay out of that trade ?

the indicators i use then for understand the apx directions of the market I see that indicators usful for me, maybe I am wrong becouse I must use Udine template...that's it!
I tell you before my entry level understanding is very poor becouse all yours trading it is on pending and I find it useful but I try every day to find the easy way...I will take off all the indicators and I use Udine clean template!

I want to thank you every day because have that patience with people like me and I apreciate very much your contribute(free) for our learning...and maybe someday I can offer you a Sangria

1. No trading if spread >=2.5 to 3 pips max. 3 pips if daily range > 350 pips. Calculate (spread/daily range)*100%. If > 2% think again.
2. No trading last hour before Sydney Open, nor first hour from Sydney Open. Many brokers adjust spreads, market needs to determine and find direction.
3. Find your "favourite" Timeframe and stick with it. Nothing wrong at all with dialling up and down to see what gives on other TFs, but I hope you understand what I am saying.
4. Open your eyes !!! What happened when GBPJPY approached the 950-900 area during the last hours ???? Many traders have stops around the BRN area and if there is one thing the big players love, itīs flushing stops. Stay clear of the Big Round Numbers unless you are totally sure and trade them during Tokyo +2-3 hrs or London Open - Close
