Hi Bk8, nice system you've got here. Simple and easy to trade.

I've got a question regarding the exit rules: "Exit - a. trigger stoploss high(+15 Pips)/low(-15 Pips) of previous candle b. cross BB top/bottom line 3. profit - min 3 new candles"

Point a. is pretty clear: move the stop loss to the high/low of the latest candle +/- 15 points
Point b. is also clear: exit if the price crosses the BB to the other side
Point c. however is not clear to me. Is it three consecutive candles in the direction of the trade? Or close if in profit after 3 candles? Could you please explain?

Thanks!

Thanks kef2138!
Point C - I prefer to take profit atleast 3 times of stoploss.. so regardless some bad days still we should be profitable at the end of month. Candles does not have to be consecutive.. e.g. day 1 - profit, day 2 - loss, day 3 - profit , day 4 - profit so if we do not want to wait further we can close the position and on average we should have profit 200-300 pips..

Nowadays I am trying to wait forever until my stop loss gets triggered itself. Let me try to explain you this part

1. Day 1 - setup formed, Open Positon, stoploss - high/low(+-15 pips) of previous candle
2. Day 2 - suppose we have profit, shift stop loss to breakeven
3. Day 3 - we may end up with breakeven or wipe off some profit pips or new profit candle..
a. if loss of some previous profit pips... no change and wait for next day
b. if we have new profit candle then shift the stop loss to previous days candle and so on..

here is the best example, I am waiting for last 5 days.. I could have made more profit on second day tself when candle crossed BB top line

Hi Bk8,

I have asked for desktop MT4 screenshots but never mind, I have scaled to your size and the chart looks good, ref. attached.

I trade CFDs for efficiency like JPN225, Ger30. I currently trade on H1 on reversals but your daily method looks promising too.

I interpreted "when a bar clearly crossed sma" as "closed past sma" and drew my entry line in sky blue horizontal line.
Your comments appreciated.

Thanks again for sharing this method.

Here is other example of exit, at first glance it looks like 3 candles profit but technically it is eqivalent to 2 candles so I will wait for few more days {image}
So you use a 3:1 risk reward, correct? And from your SL to your entry = 1 candle?

understood too, thanks for the clarification. These last months have been studying in depth and trading with Gann HiLo (5), is impressive behavior so similar to your strategy with sma (5.3) but if I'm honest I have noticed with sma method more stability since gann is quite sensitive for its configuration especially on relative and high volatility.
look forward to following your thread

was thinking about gann, so interesting to know of your comparison. most concern is thd DD of this method. it won't be always like Bk8's example. will be following with forward demoing and will upload results as they occur ...
