given that the euribor is hovering around 2.5 then they're saying trichet is going for at least 25bp on thursday. i hope my reading is correct though...:

Always good to review all trades, good, bad and plain ugly! Why not keep this thread going as a general discussion and carry on using yours for trading? If you want ask me or Dial to change the name (if you can't do it). Keep the faith ...

Same story here too. However I did book 10 pips but I came in too late to move the other half to BE so I took the slide along with the rest. The big move came ater housing report at 1500 gmt which normally isnt big news. But sometimes even a ...

swissy follow up — from heavy's earlier position...this time i'm just gonna stick to the charts without any specific trades. i will try and follow this throughout the day at the 4h intervals: 0800, 1200 and 1600 whenever i can. i think i can ...

If you pick up the indicators from post #113 the sma line & exclusion lines should flip between timeframes. That was one of my changes for later on - hard code for 4h! Nice attempt at daily but then why not rework the fast & slow ma's for this ...

If you google for +woodies +cci +mq4 you can see a number of links. There is a cci indicator in mq4, however you might want to follow this link for a further discussion. The link is to a forum which you may have to join. Alternatively I've picked up ...

Your welcome HJ! Yes the red lines are the 50 exclusion bands. The MACD shows the current week on the right so you get an up-to-date bar as the last bar. I was thinking of adding an option so that you could toggle between current bar and last weeks ...

Some trade ideas for today — Many of the dollar charts show the fast ma recrossing or touching the slow one in the weekly direction, although many are also within the exclusion zone. Bringing other TA to the fore, I thought I'd have a stab ...

Quicker screening — Haven't fully tested it yet but if you just plonk on the template on any chart, tweak parameters as appropriate then most of the legwork should be taken out for you. One more question on all these parameters - has ...

Another way perhaps of doing this is to use a 4h macd, set the fast one to 8sma on close as usual and just set the other to all 0 so you in effect get a plot of just the 8sma zoomed in. No need to draw anything...might be easier to see as well. See ...

New toys in action — Cable shows the zones as well as the close line, euro doesn't show zones. The zones for both are 50 - check the MAs on the right and check the close on the gray line is from 8 bars back (counting from 0 for the current ...

New toys — Right chaps, time to get serious! : I've added a few more toys to play with: a template for all the indicators so you can quickly zap a 4h chart into a tunnel (tunnel.tpl). Put the template in the main templates folder (strange ...

I think with our circular arguments we'll meet up somewhere eventually. I've looked at your first post on this (#102) and it seems to me that you're talking about relative momentum, whereas I'm taking about absolute momentum. So your example ...

I think you could reword the question from one of principle to one of reality. In other words ask instead: Can i get some feedback, is there anyone really make a living off FX???? This poll was done on MoneyTec and given by the responses you think ...

I think we're both confusing each other in a negative loop somehow! : My third point means that for instance on the USDCAD the long term weekly (and hence monthly) trend is down. That means -ve momentum rules the roost and +ve momentum is ...

Thanks for the update! I thought that Rob might steal the show! Kathy & Boris I thought might be good too. I was gonna give Robs piptopia blog a quick plug as well - looks like you beat me to it. I hafta admit I'm a big RB fan! His ...
