the bhoy replied Dec 20, 2006Yep. I haven't traded short on the gpy/jpy for over 6 months. Went long on yesterday's signal. eur/jpy is closely correlated with geppy. Normally I would've taken it but don't want to be too exposed in the choppy pre-xmas sessions. aud/jpy is not a ...

the bhoy replied Dec 16, 2006I'll be taking this trade. As I'm in Japan, won't be getting in when the market opens (gotta sleep sometime) - will take whatever the price is when I wake up. Reasons for taking the trade: High RSI at cross, price moving off important Vegas level, ...

the bhoy replied Dec 16, 2006May I ask, which broker will you use live with the EA? I take it your institutional platform does not use MT4? Many thanks

the bhoy replied Dec 14, 2006Is this what you want? You can get the settings from the Vegas thread. Play around with it to see which model works best for the crosses. I put the solar winds indicator up there too.

the bhoy replied Dec 14, 2006Zzzzzzzzz — Only got the nzd/usd signal (finally!) this morning and, like I said, not taking that one. Bit of a boring start to the thread I know but no signals means good pips for the last fozzy signals. I'm still in the market with gbp/chf ...

the bhoy replied Dec 14, 2006Thanks for sharing BeachBum. As you say, simple and safe. I'm going to stick to 2 lots with 80% ATR(20) stops but, yep, most important to keep that stop away from recent highs/lows. I've noticed your approach evolving over the weeks - it shows even ...

the bhoy replied Dec 14, 2006strange....my alpari charts gave a positive candle yesterday, that's why no cross. Well done on the trade, I take it you're aiming for just above the tunnel for final tp. What was your stop if you don't mind me asking? I've been using 80% ATR unless ...

the bhoy replied Dec 14, 2006ok, well, like I said I'm using the Vegas fibs, solar wind at default settings and also ATR(20). Normally I'll be setting s/l at 80% ATR and limit at 100% ATR. Even though it's on my charts, I don't pay attention to the BB bands or the centre line. ...

the bhoy replied Dec 13, 2006Well, no signals for me today. Looked like there would be a cross on nzd/usd but it vanished on the new candle. I wasn't looking to take that one anyway - against a strong trend and too near the tunnel. Could see a cross on gbp/usd and aud/usd ...
