Colostarr replied Jun 14, 2011That is what I thought. I like to "Know" when price is approaching. Once I know I will have time to assess "how" it approaches. For example the EURCHF when I received the alert I was able to look at price. When I started to set my buy stop, I ...

Colostarr replied Jun 14, 20112nd glance — Live to trade another day. I dont like the EURCHF cross because price is approaching the physo number 1.21000 that is an awful flat number and may provide significant resistance. And it coincides almost directly to where your buy ...

Colostarr replied Jun 14, 2011Codemeister — Codemeister, Question for you concerning the alert. The "Alertpips value" is set to 1. Does this mean that when price comes to within 1 pip of the blue line the alert triggers. I've received 3 alerts now and it seems to be too ...

Colostarr replied Jun 13, 2011Codemeister — The alert seems to work. Had an alert pop up on EURCAD, although the pair is not trending right now, and I won't take the trade, but it did alert me when price got close to the blue line. Good stuff - Thank you!

Colostarr replied Jun 13, 2011Jon0 why didn't you re-enter the USDJPY?? The next candle was a close just below the blue line and it went south nicely.

Colostarr replied Jun 13, 2011GBPJPY — Took the bounce trade off the blue line for the GBPJPY last night. I guess it was a good thing I was asleep or I would have closed the trade too early and left some pippages on the table. As it were, I locked in the stop at +51 pips ...

Colostarr replied Jun 13, 2011That is an interesting concept Paul. I have not tried it that way. Actually if nothing else I use the 4H to help confirm the 1H trigger. If you try it, please post your charts and your methodology.

Colostarr replied Jun 13, 2011Well said Titch. Jon0 hasn't been back since he posted those charts. I think he may have been entering true market orders and not buy/sell stops
