Daily charts — An interesting point to test is the weekly momentum & grad changes shown on these charts on other pairs. How valid is it? image image image image

2003 daily — With the -ve gradient turns brought in from the weekly. You can see how just soon after all lines the price takes a dive. More so after the 2 & 3rd lines. Targets set by my line drawing rather than fib lines or ma turns. This I ...

momentum zoom — price hidden at the top...just to focus on indicators notice just before the last red line when macd is red and the grad just turns briefly blue and then sinks back into the red. this would normally signal a weekly trend change ...

well heres the answer to the teaser i set yesterday: (the 2 years should read 3 on the chart) image

Missed again on the euro, oh well nevermind! I think Merlin might be right about this pair bottoming out at this level. Be interesting to buy on support levels next week if its still ranging methinks...

nfp & greenie — today should be interesting. will the markets focus on greenie instead of nfp? the nfp forecast is roughly four times last months figure and if it comes near target then you will probably see a retest of recent lows. ...

Are you after a written article or data feed of some sort? I tend to look at the charts from here. They go back to 1997 although you might have to read up on how they work from the cbot site (head for the tutorials).

Are we allowed to vote for ourselves, or do we have to abstain? : Actually I will vote for somebody else - although the rest of the choices are all good. I'm curious to find out why this poll came about since (until Merlin just said so) we ...

2003 to present — I've marked points where the momentum turns drops off using red vertical lines and there have been 8 decent turns on the chart. image You should be able to see them on the MACD Gradient indicator as the point where it drops ...

Momentum Study — Now I've coloured in the indicators I can do a nice little study and try to figure some stuff out with a time series example. I've picked the loony and will highlight one year (2003) which marked the slide in this pair and see ...

I've had a quick look at the link and I think it refers to v2 and not 3 (quite what the differences are I'm not sure). Anway from the text file given below I've checked against the code and it looks like the optional stuff is junk, The weekly ...

Bob Does your chart mean your neutral on the ECB but more hawkish on the Fed right now (since its above the centre line)? Also do you follow GBP, CHF or JPY fundies? I'm also based in the UK and would love to get your opinion on stuff like ...

I also played with the spiggy stuff and some of seemed to be redundant. Like plotting the MA's on the weekly - why not use MT indicators instead? Also the backtesting although useful for future reference showed a loss when I ran it on a number of ...

OK here goes: 5.1) The 1st indicator "tun_lines" puts a red line on my chart. What is it? These serve to highlight the "exclusion zones" for price if the 50 pip rule is invoked. When the rules is not valid the lines should disappear. You should get ...

I don't think Merlin minds at all - I've been posting on his journal for ages! Yes most forums are populated with more technicans than fundies (I'm much more of a techie than a fundie as well I'm afraid) but you can't complete ly ignore them. Hey ...

Hey bob welcome to the fundies club! Nice to see another heavyweight here - I was beginning to think Merlin & Nader had the place all to themselves! I don't spend as much time as you guys chewing the fundies but I do like to follow what ...

Man if only I had your monthly pip scores then I would be really happy! I quite agree that breaking your system in the middle of a trade, although tempting at the time and sometimes successful, is sheer madness in the long run. If things don't ...

I hafta agree with Dial you sound like a smart guy and a fast learner. Your posts and humour are some of the best on the forum. I dunno why you do yourself down with the "bonehead" comments though? Still maybe we all need to take a leaf out of your ...
