Put the mt4 and ex4 files in the experts folder. The set file you can put anywhere you like. Once you move the milanese expert to a chart, it will open a input tab. That tab has load button. Hit that and lead it to the set file.

This looks promising, a MTF MA Crossover alert, my preferred settings are H1, 2,3,6,3,5, the idea is complimentary, see the arrows and trade the pullbacks in the arrows direction. {image} {file}

I see now it's better with H4

I was back-testing the REN 14/7 when I decided that my favorite Double Tops and Bottoms were smoothed away, so I ditched it but before I could switch to 12/6 a 50 pips drop shook GU but thankfully I caught some of the "after-shake"

I saw the Double Top but was too spooked to loose so I reasoned I'd sell after crossing the Pivotal MA, not too stellar trading but will do for today.

the idea of trading is to find 2 to 3 trades a day that will work 90 percent of the time ...not to trade all day long

If you could pull that off, Wall Street firms would throw millions of dollars at you just to trade for them

when I was trading futures crude I blew my account 3 times ..yet I knew that market so well and I couldn't figure out why I am loosing the money ... until now I realize my mistake ....I over traded I wanted to trade all day long ... but I had 2 - 3 trades everyday that could make me 15 to 20 pips per trade ..90 percent of the time ...but guess what it was too boring to wait hrs for the trade to come along ......in fact im thinking of going back to futures ...this is game of patience ... wait for the trade all day if it doesn't come it is not there ....don't be trigger happy and try to trade every u turn ,,,....This is what I have learnt ,but to put it into practice is difficult .

I agree with your conclusion. Take those 2-3 trades but only from high probability setups...now indeed that takes a whole lot of patience and discipline. But, if you were to pull reliably, only 10 pips for example, you would be set...and you can do that in a single trade...assuming you have good money management. Somebody posted a excel sheet earlier in the thread...compounding does the work for you.

Best, Josh

I don't really believe in that. The winning and losing trades a randomly distributed, although one pattern, over a series of trades can produce consistent results. If you think that you can 'filter out' the losing trades, you are deluding yourself in my opinion. There is nothing wrong with trading all day long, matter of fact, you can gain experience a lot faster that way. Of course, as long as you maintain good MM.

Question is, how much are you willing to risk to get that 10 pips?
