Clansman replied Mar 16, 2008Should work on any pair. — This system is based on price action. Gambler180 uses an engulfing pattern (either Bear or Bull) to make the entrance decisions. Like M.A.C. Doug, I use pivots for S/R and determining exits. On the attached EUR/JPY ...

Clansman replied Mar 1, 2008I wait until the candle closes after crossing the 72 ema. I prefer to see it close with at least 25% of the body of the candle on the closure side of the ema. The direction and separation of the ema's are as important as the retracement. If the ...

Clansman replied Feb 28, 20084H TF. — I use the 4H TF (with bullrock's calculations of 10, 15, 30, and 90 for the ema's.) If the 4H reveals an opportunity, I use the 1H and 15M TF's to make my entrance decisions.

Clansman replied Jan 29, 2008Lots vs Trades. — If I may clarify the terms. The term lots is used to describe the size of a trade, not the number of positions open. A trade can consist of anywhere from one lot to as may as your broker will allow. So when Flamenco143 states ...
