Nice trade, do you consider this fits in your MA crossover strategy? The uptrend has been going on for quite a while, I have also been watching this but I did not see the opportunity. What makes you decide to step in?

When you quote the amount a trade has moved, rather do it in pips as we all work with the same pips and so we know what distance of movement you are describing. If my lot size is 1.00, then EUR 4.75 is very little, but for a trade of 0.01 lot size, ...

Yes, this reminds me of an additional question I have: aiming at a profit of 100 pips per trade would often require 2 days or more to close the trade. I am often confronted witha swap commission by the broker for overnight trades. For Walddo: this ...

Criteria for this trade look good to me, but rather close to probably a heavy resistance, therefore limited downside potential before reversal??

And also, keep calm and do not let emotions take control. Just stick to your original thoughts and let the trade do its work. Nothing's lost untill it's lost!!

Indeed, the trend is older, but 'when' to decide that it might turn?? I had just adapted my trigger based upon the 1h chart just underneath the second green candle, so 10 pips higher, when I read your reply. Still not triggered, we'll see ...

I placed an order on this pair today that looks interesting to me, let's see if the it gets triggered. It's on USD/CHF, the 100 MA is down (both on the 4h and D1 chart), we had a MA crossover down, right now there is a rebound, so I put the SELL ...

Yes, really a ranging market this week ... I opened this trade on gold, it's not according to the MA crossover system, I thought it was an interesting pullback in a definite uptrend, otherwise no options for me to enter the market, I find the lower ...

Is this just my impression, I can't seem to any decent trades this week. What do you guys do in these circumstances? Just wait and perhaps no trading for a whole week or do you consider that you are not looking hard enough, there's money in the ...

Ok Tibor, I go for the challenge. I put my crossover sharper, indeed this would have me open the trade a lot sooner. I had already opened this one at 0,8977 aiming at the MA-100 level, so 15 pips. This is on my demo-account, I know the 1:1 risk is ...

AUD/CAD is on the verge of a MA crossover on the 1H chart, so according to your system a possible BUY. Would you go for it despite being underneath the 100 MA or would you say this chart does not offer a 'convincing' crossover? Can you elaborate on ...

Interesting! Personally, using MA crossover + confirmation, this week for example I see very few buying opportunities. So indeed, trading merely on the crossover might be worth trying. Which timeframes would you consider adequate? Anything less than ...

Thanks Alistair, can you confirm whether my description of the strategy when to open the trade is correct? I did not do the USD/CAD but it looks like it would have turned out profitable

As an example this graphic of USD / CAD today: 8, 21 and 100 MA are all going down, there is a bearish MA crossover on the 4H TF, there was a green candle pullback and then again red candles with the last one having a lower high again. We are ...

Hi Alistarir, just having started and finishing my 4 week practise on the demo account witha total return of 5,5%, I will be starting my live account in the coming days. Reading this thread I recognize the logic I have been using for my winning ...
