Don't you know that to be successful in FX trading, you need to have a chart full of exciting, shiny, objects - a day full of drama and tension, fingernails bitten to the quick as you wait on your drawdown of 70% to pull itself back? That's definitely not the 1-2-3 way, lol.

No trading on anything for me today. However here's The Weird Bunch across the day. Some very early action for the US-Twins, a bit of a lurch for the 100 and as for The Dax and F40, wow...just wow...

I haven't marked any entries on these, as it's getting late and to be honest, I can't be arsed. I'm sure you can figure them out.

Only 70% Drawdown ! Crikey -I regularly get 74% drawdown on forex and index trades using the 123 springboard approach !
Kudos to you for keeping your drawdowns so small Lem

No problem Lem... I will probably be out of here pretty quick today also. Doesn't take much time when you are profitable with this method leading the way.

Will not something like xmeter work?

Hi flourishing.
This method uses the H1 time frame MOSTLY. (TooSlow has mentioned you could also trade it on the H4 or D1)

As for which pairs work better, you can trade it on any pairs, but if you have a look through the thread, then you would see the pairs that TooSlow and Lemercenaire and Hal7 trade mostly.

That might help you to decide which pairs to trade.

I hope that helps.

Will only be able to dip in-and-out for today (and the rest of the week) due to other commitments but here's one that may bear fruit.
