Cycle Trading

Long on a division of time and 1x1 hit. I've also got orders to the upside waiting to trigger. Fishing with a net.

I have 3-4 cycle hits on the daily charts that point to this week as a cycle turn. So far so good as price has hasn't broken 1.4230 in 3 attempts. I"ve made good pips going long on each bottom, but still waiting for the trend to show itself before hanging on for a multi-day swing and cycle to cycle trading campaign.

That's what I get for not waiting for the bar to close. Added another long on same division of time, lower division of price.

This One Clicker app is pretty awesome. I love being able to rapidly fire off entries. So now I've made my trade size smaller and I'll do multiple entries. I'll manually stagger the s/l, but having an automatic s/l on the entry is nice and being able to switch to a view that shows the actual currency amount of the s/l is cool.

I wish it handled entry stop and limit and limit orders. But it does have the ability to delete those in bulk at least.

It sounds good - but so far I cant get it to work on either of 2 platforms I've tried it on so far....a grey EA icon may be the problem.....I'm awaiting a reply from their email.....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon11.gif

Added a lot to the table. I highlighted with yellow squares the time cycles. One the grid is working, it's just a matter of waiting for a cycle line. The grid can be adjusted to be in concert with the larger cycle. In this I wanted to look for dips since I believe G/U is at the beginning of a large buy cycle on the daily charts. So all I'm looking for are long opportunites. Buying dips and having order triggering on higher high follow through moves.

In case you were wondering when/where the entries occured. the last 2 were buy stops getting triggered.

edit: screenie didn't show my best entry! updated.

Still holding my core position long. It's been up as much as 200 and as low as 89 in the last 24 hrs. I had some triggers trigger and added a few other runs based on time-price. Looking to hold the core for a few more days. I'll be pulling off the add-ons when it seems fit to do so.

A 4h perspective. This chart shows my core position entry and today's entry right on a division of time. I closed out all of today's add-ons except one and it's now part of the core position.

I highlighted with yellow boxes where the 2 divisions of the square have come up and price reacted.

The oscillator is also slowly trending up and I'm guessing won't turn until it hits 90* or so.

Heya,i have been following your work for a few weeks now,you have some really interesting charts there mate

I was wondering ,if you by any chance also trade GJ or EJ (or any yen cross for that matter) i would love to hear your opinion on it.

Oh and i learned my turning point timing from the same guy as you and it has been wonderful,Stoxx did say you do it differently but still holds you in high regards.

I rarely touch guppy or euppy anymore. There hasn't been anything too definitive and it's too volatile for me to just stick my toes in the water with those crosses. But I do have charts and analysis on them for when they do show me something. I'll see what I can do as far so showing some of those.

Stoxx and I definitely do things different in terms of techniques now days. He showed me quite a bit when I first got on the path. There are 3 main things he showed me.

1) Work hard.
2) Try anything and everything. When it comes to "time" the only limitation is between the ears.
3) When the card count is in yer favor, pile it on.

In terms of astro he's probably one of the most knowledgeable there is. Every wonky technique or idea I've come with astro wise he's usually already done.

Ok, after having a look you talked me into looking deeper. I'll post charts tomorrow. I'm liking what I'm seeing.

hehe,yes Pill on those P's an b's when you know a turn is in,is critical for me ,otherwise its quite hard for me to earn good pips

Indeed,he is very knowledgeable and never stops learning new tricks,i haven't even seen anyone do vedic astro as a trading method,which he was trying out months ago and so much more that i don't even know whats about.

Happy to hear you fell for the temptations of the insane geppy euppy pip ranges am really excited to see your geometry charts and other methods you use.

Geppy is a different animal,i guess to each their own,as i find it very hard to trade GU for some reason
