Bk8,

I like the strategy so far. Traders have to realize that chop will happen at times, not much you can do about it. How many or which currency crosses do you focus on? Do you have a certain money management strategy? I am trying to use a ratio approach where I trade 1% of my account equal to the number of pips to the entry and stoploss level.

One more question, for entries, do you enter a trade when the candle opens after the previous candle that has crossed the SMA or do you place an order over or below the previous candle depending on the direction of the close? From what I can tell, you open a trade after the previous candle has crossed the SMA. I just need a little clarification.

Thanks

We have 2 choices now, either we take quick profit or wait forever until stoploss get triggered to immidiate resistance level Since my setup is towards long term trend, I will go for option 2 {image}
Hi Bk8. Which line is SMA? The blue line or the middle yellow line? So the signal is bar closed crossing blue line or crossing middle yellow line?
Sorry for my dumb question.
Thanx

Thanks boseman, I am still experimenting so I have small accounts only, $50- $300. I take risk upto 10% but 3-5% is more disciplined.
You are right, I enter when new candle opens in direction of previous candles it has crossed SMA line.

Which pairs do you find work for this? I guessing most of the major crosses. I like the ideal of trading with small accounts. If you can make a profit on them, then a larger account should not be any different. I really do not like to trade demo accounts much because you emotions and decisions are different when you go live.

I plan to backtest this strategy on ForexTester and play around with ADX or some other indicators I have used to help detect choppy periods.

Great but I would not consider it 100% clean setup since candle is touching top BB

I have closed one position but another one is open... EUR is weak so you may like to move your stoploss to previous candle., so that if it reverses .. you will still have profit
