Fexitrade, to do a better job of taking profits, look at the average breakout pips and find a way to incorporate them into your thinking process. I am not sure how to talk about this process, but this piece of the indicator seems to get lost in the ...

fxology, why backtest? what are you expecting to learn that forward testing won't teach you? I can tell you right now that a backtesting report is meaningless and a true waste of this threads time. I would not be surprised if you offered the report ...
