PistolDave replied Dec 17, 2008Thanks for reminding me about the EOD indicator. I'm going to start using that. It does make it a little easier to see the entries. It is hard to be exact when you compare results to others trading this system anyway, since your entry price can ...

PistolDave replied Dec 16, 2008Cha-ching! — Finally heard the cash register ring on the short GBPCHF I had placed on Dec. 10. Six days of waiting for this one, but worth it. 305 pips profit. Nice.

PistolDave replied Dec 15, 2008Thanks, Mister ED. I suppose it comes down to whether or not you would rather try for several small gains, or many small losses and a few large gains. That would possibly come down to a trader's psychology and how many losses they could withstand ...

PistolDave replied Dec 15, 2008very profitable system — So far the strategy has been very profitable for me. It's not a fast-action day trading system, but it looks like a good, safe way to build up your wealth over time if you are patient and diciplined. And so far the ...

PistolDave replied Dec 14, 2008Foreyes... Thanks for the comments on my question. I didn't understand much about the pinbar and how it is used in TA. I think I'll still wait for more confirmation that the EURJPY is continuing the downtrend, since it appears to be building a base. ...

PistolDave replied Dec 12, 2008Do you consider the candle? — Hi Paulus and everyone. I'm posting an interesting chart of EURJPY here, and I hope to get some opinions on what you think this chart pattern means to you. Some people regard the so-called "pinbar" as a reversal ...

PistolDave replied Dec 9, 2008Welcome, Chris. I agree, the 1-2-3 system is little tougher to trade than one like a MA cross system. It requires more judgement. It is very profitable, though. I was doing well with it when I could trade it, but due to my work schedule I can't ...
