jiva34 replied Nov 19, 2016This is scaring me. This is just so perfect. It's like taking candy from a baby. I'm sure there is smack down somewhere. But I'm not seeing it. I've added the 400sma as a further indicator of take profit. Not needed. out goes the 400 sma. 600 is ...

jiva34 replied Nov 19, 2016Just have to be careful 2 things.. Getting too early. Wait for the big moves. They are there. At least once per day.. usually Just be patient and wait. You can trust the 600 bb on the 1min And don't use position sizes that will eat up the margin. If ...

jiva34 replied Nov 19, 2016Wait for it... NY open... the first cross below the upper bb600 is not a good entry. Usually if there is going to be a decent move... there will be a small pullback first.. Probably picking up stops that are too close... If I had taken all those ...

jiva34 replied Nov 19, 2016Tried three times to revert after London open... Better to wait. It can sky rocket at London open. But it failed three times for significant move higher. The short was good for 10 pips. If it had jumped higher I would wait and use the Martingale. ...

jiva34 replied Nov 19, 2016A worst case scenario.. Got in too early before the big move. 1% 2nd entrance 2% 3rd entrance 4% If it had continued higher next entrance would have to be 8% that's getting into too much risk. first entrance may have to .5% 2nd 1% 3rd 2% if there ...

jiva34 replied Nov 18, 2016Went in and out a few times on GBPUSD. The target is a moving target as the median and the channels move lower. So I will keep adjusting the take profit to coincide. If it drops back and goes outside the lower band I will wait until it comes back ...

jiva34 replied Nov 18, 2016Forget MACD. Much simplified using 400 BB Works best on lower time frames. 5 mins is great. After a run when the prices comes inside the outer band on the 400 bb enter short if on the upper band and long if inside the lower band. That's it. If it ...

jiva34 replied Nov 14, 2016Didn't really want to take a trade this morning. No data. No news. But USDCHF had a set up I recognized... Everything else... nothing. So I shorted. It was slow to come around and got out as soon as it showed a respectable gain... although I'm ...

jiva34 replied Oct 31, 2016Out of the 9 pairs I am monitoring I found 4 that I felt I understood the probabilities well enough to open positions. No news. Nothing to real move the markets. Initially I set net gain at 5., 50 pips. But no significant activity in the markets so ...

jiva34 replied Oct 28, 2016I'll keep refining identifying entries for individual pairs using bb400, bb20 and macd base 1 on the one minute. Right now stops are very wide but what I experienced this morning was that most of pairs were doing very nicely but one was a stinker. I ...

jiva34 replied Oct 28, 2016Three successful baskets this morning. not sure how many pips... but profit after fees and commissions = $9.10 So somewhere upwards of 180 pips on three baskets opened and closed on the 1 min during London. If that is indication of things to come, ...
