imbiber replied Aug 30, 2006I generally trade the 1 hour chart but sometimes view the M30 charts. Never go below 30 though. This one chart from yesterday. The frist vertical line I went long. I got the signal the 5 had crossed the 12 and RSI showed above 50. I was then stopped ...

imbiber replied Aug 30, 2006Will be following this thread closely since I like both methods. Just using the 5/12 cross with RSI got me crushed yesterday but it's been three weeks without a complete blow up so the system works, I just need to better filter out the not so great ...

imbiber replied Aug 29, 2006Thanks Tick, I actually used to have the 18/28 on my charts but removed them when it seemed the majority went with just using the 5/12 cross. I have added them back to my charts. Are you using the 30 min or 1 hour charts?

imbiber replied Aug 29, 2006Seems I'm getting my butt kicked today using the 5/12 RSI 21 cross. What kind of win/loss ratio does everybody else have today? All of my profits from the eur/jpy short from last night have been erased by other losing pairs.

imbiber replied Aug 25, 2006Could we be seeing a run up on USD/CAD. Just got a bullish cross and RSI is right at 50 but can it hold, it's came up from the bottom of the 3rd fib line on the Vegas indicator.

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006Yeah I trade the 30 as I didn't want to miss the begining of a new trend but your right about getting whipped. It's happening to me right now in the USD/JPY. I should I switch over to the one hour.

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006The way I trade the sidus is when I first see the 5 cross the 12 I take note and then I enter if the 12 crosses through the 28 as in the second candle on my chart. That's the way I understood the method but maybe I'm wrong?

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006Hmm maybe I have been slow to enter on all of my trades. I thought the 12 had to pass the 28 for a valid entry. I have missed a lot of pips no doubt by entering later.

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006I enter short when the 12 EMA crosses down through the 28. Attached is a trade I just took. I entered on the second bar from the last.

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006I like the way that method seemed to avoid the whipsaws so I'm currently still using the original Sidus method. I have MT4 email me whenever the 12 ema crosses the 28 ema then I decided to take the trade or not. Edit - I use the 5/12 not the 5/8 so ...

Pips and Leverage....

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006So is this correct with a broker using 100 to 1? I'm going to open a micro account with $1,000. 1% of $10,000 = $10.00 For example I have a 25 pip stop 25 pips = $10.00 1 pip = .40 This next part confuses me. My trade would be adjusted so that I ...

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006Excellent reading in this thread. Margin and leverage is something I still struggle with for some reason. My brain for whatever reason just goes haywire .

imbiber replied Aug 22, 2006If you use MT4 just set up an email alert so that you don't have to babysit. My system emails me whenever the 12EMA has crossed the 28EMA. Once I get the email I then open up the charts and decide whether or not to trade.
