Attached chart showing the resulting PA. This was from Monday this week on EURAUD - 1 min chart. I watched the LO action unfold live and was weighing reasons to go short but for several reasons I decided to wait. Divergences in the 14 CCI CCI 210 ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

What was your trigger for OS? The CCI 210 hitting -200? It had been under -100 for most of the fall so I am curious at what point you looked at it as OS.

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Quiet here this week. I know I have been busy with work, trading my methods and also testing Clive's baby. I have noticed that on some pairs I trade like EURAUD and GBPAUD + some others some of the best moves and entries come during Asia and pre FO, ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

What Clive is using for his ABCD pattern with CCI confirmation of momentum/trend is very different from your ABCD's so his title perhaps was a bit misleading for others who trade ABCD's the way you do. It did not turn into a CCI thread (or price ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

See Clive I am not as slow as you thought Eh! Well I will watch with interest as I continue by backtesting and live (paper trading) testing with what I am playing around with. While you may have an idea what I am up to I am adding some of my own ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Why? Look at how many times the trend CCI moves above -100 or below +100 just to re-enter the trend. Look at your Daily chart and the trend CCI. Look at the dips below and then back above as we retace and continue upward. While I agree that the move ...

That second yellow line is great. CCI210 hit +100, retrace below +100, CCI 14 retrace to -100 and boom both hit +100 on the same bar (second yellow line). Daily trend CCI above +100. Nice stuff. I am actually playing with this very thing but also ...

Perhaps, if the trend CCI does not go back above or below +100/-100 until the break of C then there was no trade at B anyway is there? If there was real interest coming to the market at B then the CCI 210 should spike back into trend (or have stayed ...

We should write an indicator that puts a black rectangle over the +100 to -100 zone so we don't see what's happening in that ranging zone. Only when the trend CCI pokes it head above or below the black box do we take notice.

Quoting my own post here but using your GBPJPY chart (hope you don't mind Clive)... First white arrow, CCI 210 uptrend was over for now... We enter the dead zone until white arrow #2 which is when we first get excited that a downtrend may be ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Clive, As you noted each of those reactions to 173 the CCI 210 as you noted was falling and never came back above +100. Your 3rd yellow arrow, break and re-test... The CCI 210 was below 0 and only peaked above 0 on that spike returning right back ...

So this trade went as high as around 44634 which based on a 4414 entry with a 7 pip SL is just shy of 7:1. Not bad for a Friday. As price spiked and hit that high making a new HH for the day both of the CCI's were falling and making LH's as price ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Something I would have traded. First dip / spike happened on a down bar so no go for me... (orange lines). Second dip spike (second yellow) line. Perfect. 2:1 was hit quickly so 1:1 or more would have been banked quickly and now risk free to let it ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

I agree those are trades. The trend CCI rolled over under +100 and back above again with the CCI14 which hit -100. I did not say we couldn't and wouldn't go up again as the CCI will hit periods of lull overnight. During the London and NY sessions ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Some more food for thought based on my testing thus far. Trying to look for clues in how the CCI prints and what the patterns within the CCI's mean. Not showing trades, just some ideas I am playing with while trying to turn this into a solid ...

Nice trade.

I agree with you Vantage. I could never bring myself to risking 1% per pip. Still young enough and I am trading as much for my early retirement as anything. Compounding is my friend. Same % risk, increased returns as account grows and as such lot ...

Trading is as simple as ABCD

Wise words as always Vantage. Most of what I am doing in my testing is based around that general premise with some tweaks for safer entries and ways to stay in for more of the longer trend moves and better R:R. One thing that has become very ...
