      It will be interesting to see the Asian filter results and provides a better win % by truly filtering some false breakouts. Sounds good on paper. We will see. The other criteria I use is waiting for the close of the candle. How many times do we see ...

      Krumpy, thanks for your post. Do you have any details? Which instruments were profitable? Screen shot of the back test results, etc? At some point down the road, we might have to look at other rules or filters to improve the system, but I believe at ...

      The last week or so, I have been working on moving from manually trading to an EA. Made a few mistake trades from the EA testing, but I have it working well now. Last week also was a tough one for GBP entries, so gave back some PIP's. Moving forward ...

      Looking back at last month, I only had 1 trade (GBP/CHF) which had any movement prior to the rate announcements for GBP and EUR. Almost all the instruments ranged prior to the events. I am going to be very cautious about taking any trades before 7AM ...

      Conclusions from January (Con't) Entries - Using the input from Jason W about inside bars / Asian H/L, I believe has some real potential to improve these results. See post #35 for this example and thanks Jason. January had about 62% win rate, so ...

      Conclusions from January Instruments to Trade - Here is the chart of the performance by pair. Before we make judgement on removing any, I believe we need another month or two of data. Those of you who remember statistics, we need a decent sample ...

      Bull.bear, % of ATR is if the 30 Day ATR is 100 pips, then 50% would be a TP of 50 pips or in your 70% example it would be 70 pips. Couple questions. Why do you believe it is better to use the MA cross vs. a % of ATR? Can you provide some more ...

      Sesamstrasse, Thanks. Agree it is early in the game, but a nice start. If we can have a few months of profit, we might have something. Some good suggestions helping to refine it too. Hope all is well in Frankfurt... GW

      Major turn for the EA and took out my position at breakeven. However, it is back up and tested the trendline for a 4th time and stalled. Will trade the Frankfurt break tomorrow and looking for a move down to the lower part of the channel. A break of ...

      Jason, thanks for your comment and observation. I like the idea and starting thinking about it with the charts. This Asian high or low could be one of the areas which creates the choppy trading and we could filter out. Today I looked at the EJ and ...

      I have been out a few days, but managed to keep up the trading. As I mentioned earlier we had a real smooth Monday and Tuesday, but last part of the week the GBP was choppy. However, with some ranging and choppy trading, still managed to keep even ...
