kenmania replied Mar 31, 2008If you want the signal a bar earlier, change the setting for the 34 from simple to Linear Weighted Moving Average. Also, no matter what settings you have the indicator at, you won't get an alert until the close of the bar where the cross occurs. ...

kenmania replied Mar 30, 2008If you throw the template on a USDJPY 1 Hour chart you should see the fib right there. Otherwise, open it on any chart, right-click the chart and select "Objects List". When the objects menu pops up, scroll down to where it says "Fibo", select it by ...

kenmania replied Mar 30, 2008Also on this GBPJPY long trade on the hourly. This one should yield some nice pips if it works.
EDIT: I'm abandoning the targets on this trade. It doesn't meet the criteria for a 1-2-3 swing, not to mention the fact that the Elite signal ...Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication ( Elite )

kenmania replied Mar 30, 2008Oh yeah...and the targets will be basically meaningless unless applied to TEB63's method. Well...they can still work, but they're designed to be effective with the 1-2-3 swing trading method and having the 200 SMA in the right place. At this point ...

kenmania replied Mar 30, 2008I'm combining Elite with TEB63's system. It's really an experiment. Elite seems to give the earlier entry signals (especially on longer time frames), TEB shows me where to get out and set my SL.

kenmania replied Mar 29, 2008Thanks for being open to it, Flame. It's pretty apparent that your system is a major pip-producer just on its own. I just know a lot of traders like to know where the out-door is before they walk through the in-door.

kenmania replied Mar 29, 2008For people looking for a "hard exit" rule, you might check out TEB's simple system thread. I've used a combination of other methods with TEB's method and it works very well. I'm amazed at how often both of the targets are hit, especially on the ...

kenmania replied Mar 29, 2008Hello Waterflame. I realized what you meant about not waiting for the signal from the crossover alert indicator. I got a short signal later in the day on the USDJPY one hour chart but it was after the candle had formed (well after) and I'd missed ...

kenmania replied Mar 28, 2008Nice system, WaterFlame. I added an alert to your template to make life a little easier. The email function is set to "off", alert function "on" in the template. If you want it to email when there's a cross of the 3 and the 34 just set it the way ...
