Filters — I also agree. I have started watching the pivot areas with this system, and it works good as a filter. Perhaps it's not enough for filtering out bad trades, but it certainly helps. Archie

Thanks for your answer. I think that is a wise choice. Do you use any other filters than S/R? Archie

Pending orders? — Hi, I wonder if you (or anyone else here) have any statistics regarding closing pending orders the same or the following day? I wonder, since keeping them open for that long wouldn't actually be considered as a BO in terms of ...

Results — Hi again, I have re-checked my charts and according to them it is correct. I double up even on the following day. I don't know if this is following the original rules, but I have found it profitable. On the 7th Jan the first order ...

Results — Hi, I see that you have calculated your results almost as I have, but the total differ a lot, and I don't know why. This can be because of different brokers, quotes etc. I have been very cautious when prices only touched my TP/SL and ...

Results — Hi, Yes I agree that only the number of pips doesn't show if the system is profitable or not. But showing the gains in % doesn't necessarily show a good system either, because the percentage also reflect the amount/lots risked. A ...

Results — That is not correct according to my tests. I am forward testing this system, though only visually, and my results for the first 2 weeks of this year is approx. +250 pips. The first week was however much better than this one, but ...

Testing — Fxblinkers, I have only backtested the last months of the last year, but I will continue testing. As of now, I am forward testing differences between using TP/SL based on range+buffer or based on range only. I have seen that a TP ...

Tweaks and filters — Fxblinkers, I'm interested in your tweaks for this system. I also think that this system will see losing periods and that some sort of filters are needed. I currently watch the size of the box, trading only when it is not ...

Testing — So far so good today. I'm doing some testing of box times and SL/TP-levels. Either TP/SL = range+buffer or using buffer, but TP/SL = range only. For now the first option is gaining more, but lower breakout activity would possibly ...

Bars and times — Hey everyone! I agree with the last point mentioned about 2 or 3 bars. I use 3 bars, and I think that is correct according to the original system. Also, have you experimented with different closing times for pending orders? I ...

Closing pending orders — Hi, I'm thinking of the fact that in the original system, we don't close pending orders until the second day at 23. Why is this? And have anyone tried using another closing time, i.e. just before the end of the day? ...

Results? — Hi, What have you experienced during backtest? Nov and Dec were great months, and I'm sure this system will have its bad months as well. What results have you had concerning double up?

Great day — Yes, great day today. Positive pips for me too. Loss on the first, but the second one turned out a winner. Archie

Hi, I don't exactly understand your strategy with the sequences. So you use 30 pips increment and then when the market moves 120 pips one sequence closes, right? And then you do wait for the market to do that another 3 times? How big is your DD? ...

Hi — Great system you've got here. I trade breakouts since some time back, but have been struggling with false breakouts and determining the TP-levels. Your system looks promising, but I have a question. How do you determine the PP and mid-PP? ...

EA — What success have you had with the SR-version? I tried the original before, but as you point out, I quit because the DD was too big. What pairs are running best?

EA — I tried this EA in the past, but let it go since the big DD, but I will gladly test it again on demo and see what it can do. So your suggestion is E/J on 2 levels? Great work! Good that someone brought this thread to life again.
