Yorik, What helped me is to not look at the MACD first but to look at the rythm of the market and to go for the rules of the system. If the price goes through the 89 it goes back to the 21 before continuing on. Print out a years worth of charts and ...

pinbar — That is a good trade y'all made on the Euro. I need to do some backtesting on the pinbars. I noticed it this morning but not confident in them yet but it obviously works a high percentage of the time.

It looks like the Euro is bouncing off the 21 I will wait and see for a little more confirmation.

That was a good trade on GBDUSD this morning. Too bad I missed it during my sleeping time.

I am also long on the GBPUSD now. Price came back to the 89/21 level and when I switched to the 1hr there was a nice green bar telling me to buy at 1.9664. I have reached TP1 for +20 already and moved my SL up my 2nd stop will be the 200.

Yea, I have my corvette sitting in my garage unfortunately it just sits there and I work on my boat a lot. I entered at 1.5675 so I had room for more of a stop I just didn't utilize it. I felt like my entry was right I just need to quit being so ...

I had my SL too close on the Euro trade this morning I got stopped out by 6 pips, I need to keep my gaps a little bigger and give it some room. I knew what direction it was going. As Phillip would say it wasn't a doubt in my mind.

Back testing — I conducted some backtesting of the GBPUSD in May and June of 07'. The backtest was interesting and I may need to conduct more testing to make a conclusion but to me there is a clear pattern. If you take all the TC's except if ...

I was lucky my alarm on my computer didn't go off because I would have been nailed by the GBPUSD trade. The morning star and the nice long candle on the way down would have got me. Hopefully Phillip will chime in.
