eurusd-thijs, I see that this EA uses both MACD and RSI. This thread does not support the use of such indicators. Could you stick to just MAs? The purpose of the thread, made clear in several posts, is to use only MAs and for us to become better at ...

The above GBPUSD trade moving now, but slowly, unlike GBPCAD, that has burst up and is now at B/E. TP at 150 pips. image

I bought GBPUSD after the 8/21 EMA crossover. D1 is very up. image

I decided to go back to the original method I started this thread with. In fact post #1 summarises it nicely. I have borrowed text from that post to explain what I am doing now. =========== Borrowed from post #1: This chart summarises my strategy. I ...

Thank you for this question. Firstly, this is not based on the 3x3 strategy - today I have been posting about entering earlier using the 8/21 EMA crossover as the signal, not the 3 EMA crossover as the signal. Your question made me go back and look ...

The trades I posted earlier are are still keeping me in the "hope" stage. EURUSD pulled right back, but beginning to go my way. CADJPY still hovering in local consolidation but on the loss side of the entry. This EURCAD trade has done much better, ...

I use an App to place trades because it calculates the correct lot size for me automatically. It's better that you download it yourself so that you get the correct files. Place all of those files directly into the MQL4 folder url This is what it ...

I missed the earlier small consolidation area soon after the 8/21 EMA crossover (where the SL now sits). This level would have made a good entry, but instead I had to enter after the second consolidation area which is also after the yellow arrow ...

This comment from last week still applies - I am using the EA to move to B/E and aiming for a target further away than I usually set, hoping that I will lock in some decent profit if the trade doesn't reach the target. But to reach a more distant ...

It would have been better if I had entered this trade near the dotted line, but I missed it. Given that all three TFs are showing down on the 3x3 method, I decided to go for it anyway - when the force is with you ... The target is far down. I ...

The recent GBP economic news items, all but one in the red, pushed this GBPCHF trade to its target very quickly. So that's a very nice 150 pips banked. But another trade (long GBPAUD placed this morning) went equally quickly to its doom. That's 85 ...

Shortcuts aren't helpful in the long run. But you could try reading the thread backwards, as most of our recent thinking is in the last 5 pages. My strategy now revolves around the 3x3 method (mostly, kind of, with the Yellow Arrow Signal as a ...

It could be that the dashboard needs to be refreshed. It seems to need that. Click on a different time frame and back to where you want to be and you might see a different display.

Here's another "All three EMAs aligned" trade. The break below the signal was too strong to catch so I waited for the usual pullback and entered on the breakout candle. There is local support to get through still, but beyond that is a decent amount ...

I do too, I'm sure most of us do, but it's an interesting idea to go pure naked and see if we can overcome our dependence on those props. I do sometimes wonder, once we have got our minds around it, whether it might not be a better way of trading! I ...

OK, take a deep breath everyone. Here's something to liven up your Monday! We use EMAs to help us define trend. Another standard method is to use higher highs and higher lows to define an uptrend, and vice versa. But we also like keeping things ...
