How I wish I could just close the AUDNZD. It's sucking me. It's not giving opportunity to leave at break even Am waiting for my SL to trigger so that I get out.

Very interesting system - maybe I will have a crack at this in the New Year when volatility returns.

A stoch setting of 8/3/3 more or less mirrors a 10 SMA. You are measuring the 8 SMA, but have a slowing factor added to it. It is not exact, but close enough. So, when the line of your stoch crosses 50, then price should be crossing the 10 SMA. The stoch is not built to show the full range of motion of how far price moves from the 8/10 SMA, so that is why it gets stuck above 80 and below 20. 80 and 20 mean nothing really. Using a 3 for your crossover line isn't much help either. All in all I would not use this tool and those settings. But, of course,...
Thanks

As long as is bollinger band trading system, it will work on Crude, gold etc. I think I have shared Gold/USD chart here; and I said the SL would have been triggered when it was daily-based candle SL because of the US election. I said that no setup is safe with such volatility. I have Gold here again- weekly and the daily. I will find chance to check the Crude.

Am currently following only Gold and not Crude because of my EURUSD short position. Crude could be used to trade USDCAD. Am not in USDCAD right now. About the EURUSD short, the weekly is making Stochastic-based setup. We can only judge that at the end of the trading week. I don't want to get into that now, until Friday when market has closed.

Hi Moonman, am sorry I did not see your post early. You got in too early if you used the strategy and was trading the daily and longer timeframes. There was no signal at all to go bearish yet. I have been bearish AUDCAD, they're correlated. It would be bearish but not now. When the 4th December candle closed below middle band there was no daily closed below lower band.

For bearish trading, when candle closes/has closed below Middle band on the weekly and first candle that closes below Lower Band on the daily shows that bearish movement has started. If the weekly strongly closed above Middle Band and the daily has not been able to close above Upper Band,there is no need to get in yet. You have to be patient.

Please switch to candlestick. You would observe that when 13th November was closing/closed no daily candle succeeded to close below lower band. You just need to stay away.

You would see how the bulls attacked right around the middle band the next weekly candle. It was not surprised to me because the daily was not ready yet. Some of my friends also went short, but only informed them that if I were the one I would not go short, base on my entry point.

I have shared my current setup on EURAUD long. It's a great example. I will say more about the setup latter because I shared it the same day I got in.

Let me make it clearer again. When the weekly is closing/closed strongly below middle band and the daily closed below lower band, then opportunity to short. It must be the same week, otherwise it would be late. If the daily fails to close below lower band, just stay away
