100PipsADay replied May 13, 2013Let me give you a recent example with EUR/AUD. April 2, 2013 the MACD moving average crossed over the slower MACD moving average on the D1 chart giving us a good buy signal. A day before, April 1, the first "Blue Bar" appeared on the D1 MACD giving ...

100PipsADay replied May 13, 2013MACD Signal Line OR Bars, doesn't really matter as we are trading off of the Daily charts. One way might be earlier by the other by a day or so at the most, but that doesn't really make any difference in the long run. We can be more flexible with ...

100PipsADay replied May 13, 2013Charvo, 1) You're right, this is technically a "bi-screen" method which is why I say "I use a part of the Third Screen Strategy..." however, I do manually try to take the weekly trend into consideration. 2) I don't consider any other criteria in ...

100PipsADay replied May 13, 2013This is a good idea, is this something you want to run numbers for? To be completely honest, I wouldn't know how to go about calculating the correct numbers for all pairs. How far back do you calculate ATR for a particular pair in order to come up ...

100PipsADay replied May 13, 2013After doing some back testing and running some numbers I have decided to change up my SL & TP parameters depending on which pair is traded. This is due to some pairs being more volatile than others. *Folks, remember that nothing is "black and white" ...

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013I closed the first few trades in order to link the account to forex factory trade explorer as I needed closed trades in order to aggregate the data. As for EUR/NZD trades I am thinking that this could be the spread which is HUGE! Gold, Silver, and ...

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013Pull up a chart with only a 20 EMA and a 50 EMA, nothing else and watch how price reacts and respects these two EMA's for the past 10 years for as many pairs as possible. This thread is strictly for the D1 20 EMA & 50 EMA Trend Strategy so anything ...

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013Alright folks, I mentioned earlier that I was not too familiar with back testing EAs and I just learned that I can download more chart history data in order to back test each pair for a longer period of time. I was only able to back test each pair ...

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013Thanks Claudia. I've been trading a six figure account since August 2012 so I am basing this system off of a realistic scenario for me at this point in time. One could pick and choose a few pairs to trade, they could reduce max positions to 4 from ...

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013Looking at the weekly and monthly charts GBP/USD is in a down trend. I still think GBP/USD is in a "corrective" move towards the upside and has more than likely topped out. *I would be looking to sell any rallies.

100PipsADay replied May 12, 2013Not too sure about the leverage aspect as I use a reputable broker outside the US for most of my live trading and have 100:1 leverage on my account. However, I rarely EVER use any more than 20:1 and that is pushing it. Would my trade explorer helps ...
