Definately is a great way to get in to a trade, and maybe I was being over-zealous with attempting alternative exit strategies with the use of SAR's and other indicators. I think these are fine if you are in a multi-lot trade where you can close ...

Directional Movement

Out of trade at -5.6pips. Maybe I should have listened to you. I'll watch this trade and see where it goes. ((kicking myself in the shins))

Directional Movement

Still in the trade!!! at +40 pips The Parabolic SAR is there only to keep you in the trade for as long as possible and is there just to protect you from any sudden movements in the markets or sudden sentiment change, it's like an insurance blanket. ...

Hey Al I've set the Stop Loss to the Parabolic SAR at the 30min set at 0.005, 0.008, 0.2 (on the quick chart IGIndex) and I am moving the stop loss up every 30 mins. I have set a few parameters that will get me out of the trade 1. I have set a trend ...

Yes you were correct but this pair did not develop. I have now entered another one that met the rules of the strategy at EUR/AUD, I hope this is successful.

Directional Movement

Hi Al This meets the strategy's valid signals but the candle is way too big, is it best to keep out of this one? Or wait for a pull back to about 50% of the candle then re-enter?

Directional Movement

Well done on both of those trades, congratulations In regards to me LONG on chf/jpy, I had read this article url I normally don't trust trade signals or reviews like these, but I believed that one, and did my own analysis and the review made sense ...

It looks like it broke through the 8570 .. its south from here.. Nice one AL your on a winner here. I (got stopped out at -78pips)

Hi Plasma can you post the link to the thread where you got this indicator from, I'd be interested in looking into it. Thanks

Directional Movement

Hi Al The reasoning behind the entrance of AUD/USD outside of London times, is that during that time, that was the active time for Australia hence I suspected that there is enough trade to maintain a trend. I'm also in the [live] CHF/JPY but in the ...

Directional Movement

Good Morning Al. Any good trades you are in or developing on this strategy? I entered AUD/USD live trade at 2am UK 7309.4 and closed at 7263.4 at the Parabolic SAR with a -46pip loss. I've been looking to see why the sudden change in trend and it ...

Directional Movement

Eureka!!! Parabolic SAR — Parabolic SAR Stop Loss Strategy I have been doing a lot of backtesting on previous trades that I have entered live or demo traded that I have either exited the trade at Break Even or I have exited the trade at a loss ...

Directional Movement

3 pairs to keep your eyes peeled over the next 1hr-2hrs, that could develop into qualifying trades. The First pair is the good old dragon,GBP/JPY The +DI is over 20 and ADX is 17.14 at the moment.. its lowest was 14.99.. so as long as this candle or ...

Hi Scott I hope AC doesn't mind me responding to this post as I think AC might have missed it as I have missed it. And AC, If I am wrong about what I recommend or say please correct me. In accordance to the strategy rules and the signals that you ...

I entered USD/CAD late as I was in the Cable. I entered USD/CAD 2 candles late at close of Green Vertical Bar. Should have entered at close of Purple Vertical Bar (ADX has risen by 3 from low) In regards to entering a trade 1 or 2 candles late from ...

Directional Movement

I have set my cable now to B/E and entered USD/CAD and exited USD/CAD.. with a -27.6 pip loss my cable hit B/E even too.. it's just not my day. lol

Directional Movement

Hi ACartwright Yes you are right. I just was not able to enter the trade due to being in a trade already.. I like to money manage my live account to have only 1 trade running at a time. (unless I am BE or in +sl) with other trade. But is it right ...

Directional Movement

I believe this pair is not a valid setup but it would be best to check with the ACartwright. The reasoning for this setup not being valid is the ADX has decreased since the last candle and looks like it will carry on decreasing. Which means that the ...

Directional Movement

I've entered that now at 1.49804 with tight stop loss at 1.49528 I have set my target to 1.503 Also the fundamental's agree with it as the dollar is weak now after the production values and normally this carries on till day end or sometimes the ...
