Check out this thread — "The System 2 (with Irony)" Started by a greAT fella named Feb. Is not a 5 point target (it's higher) so maybe not right for you but if you drop down a timeframe and use the same principles+use a 1 minute chart you ...

Sniper-take a look at SRDC thread — I think it's on this site, or it's on Babypips. Uses trendlines, zigzag, channels, fibs etc, it might help clarify your thinking. Unless of course you're doing just fine and you don't need it clarified- if ...

Just bagged another 30 points but trading on MT4 is a nightmare with this system-got into the trade at least 10-12 pips too late. MT4 is great for opening and closing ...The System II (Yes with irony)

It's options expiration day so be extra careful! — Combined with the lack of liquidity it is going to shoot around I would guess. Take a look at the options calendar here, and if you have the time go back and look at the charts on option ...

How much will I charge? — It'll be a LOT! There is no more accurate system out there. Lets see, it's 1pm GMT am going to have lunch. Aaaah no that's dumb, USA open. But then if I timed it with market opening hours it would be an even stronger ...

Moneda if I've learned one thing.... — and it's probably the only thing I've learned from trading, and that is that I have never seen more proof of Murphy's law than in trading forex. Go to the loo/make cup of tea for 5 mins/have one late ...

You're weren't joking about strange market moves.... — at this time of year Feb and Ace! I made a grand total of 11 points on a long yesterday on the Eur/USD proving my ineptitude as a trader-I exited approx 15 seconds before it exploded ...

Sorry Ace I didn't see your previous post... — which advised me to focus on just one pair. You've picked up on a problem that I have, which is I tend to flit between the two. While they are correlated, they're really not the same and I founds ...

Seasonality — I see, I'm guessing people are scooting away on holiday or just getting drunk at Xmas lunch (I'm in the UK, we do that sort of thing) so trading is leas, and there's the big blank period between Xmas and NY that might deter some ...

Wash and rinse — Hi again Ace, Ok I'll look carefully at what's happening around the 50/00 levels and will draw lines on my chart just to give me some sort of visual representation as I would most likely fail to spot something in the heat of ...

Hi En0X — Yes I can see what you mean about the retracement being high and therefore grounds for a warning. Combined with the 00 level it was not a good trade. But then the GBP/USD break down at 9.45am GMT would also not have been a good trade ...

Hi Ace thanks for the help — I know that the 50 and 00 levels are ones to watch, but it seems that these levels occur so regularly that there would always be a reason not to take a trade-does that make sense? The 9.45am (GMT) Eur/USD move ...

reply to canadian dude — I enter when the price moves 1 point above/below the high of the 7-9ET box. Exit at 12 points profit, reason being is that if you wait for a full 5 point move, then add in the spread, you're looking at a move of approx ...
