Thanks Mr V. Really appreciate your comments. Banked 80 pips in the end so very pleased with that obviously. Practically doubled account in one trade. But more pleasing than that is that I am starting to regularly bank much bigger winners than my ...

Well this GBPJPY trade is looking good at the moment so trading with the 5 min trend is helping it would appear. I'm also going to try and hold this on the 5 min NLMA colour change too. mainly because if the scots vote to stay British then hopefully ...

Just need to catch the first couple of entries rather than the riskier later ones, the sooner after the slope change the better as this chart shows could have entries between 20 to 40 pips up by now and no sign of the NLMA changing back to red yet ...

BE trade, failed drive didn't take out B point so should of closed there and then. Not really surprising as missed the first 3 entries as I was busy working on my strategy and feel I'm getting really close now to something workable on the 1 minute ...

Took another 20 odd pips here but wandering whether I should be holding on the MA slope changes?? Only trouble is did that earlier on GBPJPY and ended up at BE after being 18 pips up. Its a tricky one to know whats for the best. Most traders would ...

Have you tried an LWMA I think they are a little more reactive to the reversals than a simple so identify them better a 100lwma is very similar shape to the 200 nlma. But at the end of the day whatever your preference as long as when the price ...

Yes its very easy to overstay your welcome on these 1 min trends I guess we have to decide which timeframe we are exiting on. The entry for me should always be the 1 min trend change when price turns your way but the exit can be any timeframe after ...
