Bull101 replied Jun 15, 2008Yes you would go long in this situation. No, if they are not both the same color at the opening of the candle, I do not take the trade. I analyze the charts for maybe 10 minutes after the opening of the candle. If there is no entry signal at that ...

Bull101 replied Jun 13, 2008Hello, To your first question, the Daily Strategy has produced more money. The main reason is because the 4hr strategy will produce more losses and smaller gains than the daily system. Although you will have more trades, there will be more losses ...

Bull101 replied Jun 13, 2008The black line just goes over the top of the indicator. I do not find it useful. You can remove it by going into options, and selecting its color to "None"

Bull101 replied Jun 12, 2008Hello, When the indicators both change to green, that is a buy entry. They will usually not change at the exact same time. It does not matter which one goes first. You exit the second trade when AO shows a reverse signal. However, it is true, that ...

Bull101 replied Jun 12, 2008Hello, I have been finding these signals using ODL. Their daily candle opens at 0:00GMT, so any broker that opens at that time, you should be fine with. My live broker is FXCM, however, I haven't switched to their MT4 account yet. So I find entries ...
