SO TRUE!! I go through the exact same thoughts. I would guess most traders do. Two things have helped me recently: 1. I think about how I will feel after the trade closes if A) I am wrong and I get out at BE, B) if I am right and I get out at BE, or ...

Bin, at least you are not providing liquidity to the market!

Guys, I've been following all the posts in the thread even though not posting myself lately. I'm really glad you found my testing useful and that you guys are successfully testing in real time. I just want to remind you that those tests were very ...

BigT, just wanted to thank you for posting Clay's videos. I can't get to the chat room every day and I don't want to miss any. Do you plan to always post them here, or will Clay post them somewhere else?

I woke up this morning and saw all this. KK I did not mean to start an argument! I'm really sorry if this happened. Everything I write in these threads is for two reasons: 1) to help me figure out trading for myself, and 2) to try to help others ...

Thanks, rtrs. Sounds like approx. 2 + spread. That's a good entry plan. When I get to my backtesting I'll use 2 + spread and see how that looks.

The 35/50 was NOT flat, they had been turning down for the last 3 bars. Even though they were not steep, those 3 bars made a definite downtrend, clearly reversing the previous uptrend. The 35 and 50 MAs were also close together - only 4.5 pips ...

Hey guys are you using a 2 pip SL, or a 2 pip + spread SL? I can't imagine it does not include the spread, but it's often very small at that time of day I have to ask to be sure. Thanks!

Wow did you see the beautiful EU setups that I just missed! GRR! A PERFECT H1 bounce, confluent with H4 10 and DP. At the moment of entry it would have looked like big momentum south, so you would have had to just close your eyes and jump in, and ...

You need to make some posts here or in the system thread. The room admins made this decision when they changed to a new room.

It looks like you are talking about the Serpent's Tongue! Your pic is a perfect setup - a few minutes later, if price goes down, the MA will then move down to touch the wick of that candle. But it does not touch when price is at that level, so by ...

KK you are right about that. However they are beginning to turn down and they are together. I remember reading in the Choros thread that this is a good setup if the other factors are in place. There is probably a link in the TOC doc. Keep at it ...

Arokh, BTW, that was a nice trade! Beautiful Dance trade! Beginning of trend established, first retrace and touch of 35/50, and you got 30 pips! Wash, rinse, repeat.

Please realize that I posted these results 1) to show that I got the EA to run, and 2) to ask questions about it, like why the lot size changes. This is NOT a good backtest. There is a lot of work to do before that will be possible. Yes, this was ...

EA settings — These are the settings in the EA. I use Oanda. Am I missing anything? What is the sleepsig file? extern bool brokerIsECN = true; extern int gmtOffset = 0; extern double risk = 2.0; extern double maxSpread = 2.0; extern double ...

Um... yes. set to +140. So... I changed it to +20 and ran it again - much different results! Screenshot below. I need to go through it in detail now to make sure it's using correct data, calculating correctly, etc. The trade size keeps ...

Nice job, SmartGXL! I've been thinking about exit strategies and how to make consistent pips on smaller wins, which happen more often, without sacrificing the big wins that happen less frequently. Since we were only 6 pips short of the +140 EPIC win ...

It worked!!!! It actually ran!!! I am dancing circles around my desk! I still have some things to work out that will take time though. I got Journal results for trades over a 1 year run. That appears to be working great. I don't know how ...
