And, against all of this, the price shoots up, and I'm stopped out. Geez, I just can't catch a break...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

AUDJPY short...? — As others have said, I think this pair is about to take a quick dip. Data to support my beliefs: 1) 4-hr RT almost formed 2) 4-hr Top of trendline hit 3) 4-hr Stochastic crossover in the works 4) 1-hr MACD and stochastic ...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

Again, looking at your chart doesn't really show me anything--yes, it's a line, but where are your s/r levels you've identified? It's in the region of support around may/june of 2006, but 1.0970 was the level there, and I don't see any significant R ...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

weghio, You might get some pips here, but look at the previous RBs in the last month for USDCAD and how well they did... not much promise in such a strong downtrend... might be better to wait for a short up correction and then hit the next down ...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

My thought would be--forget about that... my guess is the market will be quiet as a mouse between now (2AM ET) and then (8-ishAM ET). Right now my 4-hr candle is a doji for the last 2 hrs... lots of indecision and waiting. But it's just a guess. ...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

Yes, but they could be hurt by negative durable goods orders news for usd at 8:30am, and new home sales at 10am, so I'm waiting until after 8:30am (ET). Notice the beautiful RB on GBPCHF...

Yeah, -50 for me too. :-\

Great GBP/USD Strategy for Swing Trades

aktaurus, if you look right after I said "between Monday and Tuesday", you'll see that I said this: "(in this case a day late because of Easter). " :-) The time range is from 8:30AM to 0:00AM on Monday. It's pretty clear, right? 0:00 on Monday is ...

Okay--I'm doing some testing on my indicator right now and have already made a couple of changes. I'm dealing with repaint issues and the like right now so bear with me while I try to get it as accurate as possible. And yes, backtesting will be ...

Great GBP/USD Strategy for Swing Trades

There seems to be some lag at some points, as there are gray areas where an EMA dips to touch another, and when they all get intertwined it's not best used, just like the method itself. However, in most cases the indicator follows the rules pretty ...

Great GBP/USD Strategy for Swing Trades

New Indicator v2.0 — As Rob (blueruby) did such a fantastic job on his indicator v1.2, I decided to add to it (actually, I rewrote about 95% of it, but he laid the foundation) and create an arrow indicator system based on the rules that VyNNer ...

Great GBP/USD Strategy for Swing Trades

If you enter a position, and have to close because the position goes bad or violates a rule, then to reenter, the price must meet all the previous requirements, and in addition, it must be above the previous week's high price for a long position, or ...

Quick question. In the txt file, it says: Shouldn't this instead read: ? For example, in your 11/14/06 trade, you go short when the index is below the 7 day SMA.

aktaurus, in your chart it looks like you have not set your high and low correctly for your "box". Looks like your box only includes 24-hr of data maybe? For April 07, it should go from NFP minute 0 on Friday all the way to Midnight (between Monday ...

Hi Kevin, enjoyed reading the thread so far. I just looked at the backtested data, and see that this is for the GBPUSD pair. Sorry if this has already been answered (stayed up all night reading the thread and looking at data so I'm a bit tired , ...

This is an excellent point Ricky... In fact, if I can look at 1-hr charts and pick up 5 pips at a time, I'd be a happy camper :-)

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

Seinfeld fan--yes, for sure!!!! best show ever. period. :-) As for your chart, take a look at my USDJPY... I get no such pretty round bottom... I get two V bottoms. I guess it's the time difference in which our respective servers roll to 4-hr ...
