tonirai replied Dec 2, 2008Since the reversal bar is now closed, you place a sell stop order at the same price as the SL for the current long; And yes, both of them go to the lower of the closed reversal bar -5.

tonirai replied Dec 2, 2008That question doesn't even apply, because at the moment R breaks through the high of S, the buy stop is triggered and you're long; So it's indifferent that it touch both EMAs, because we aren't looking for a setup bar to go long no more (we already ...

tonirai replied Dec 2, 2008The SL for that short was at the high of B before C closed; But when C closed, since it's a setup bar to go long, we have moved that SL and placed the buy stop above C.

tonirai replied Dec 2, 2008We are now long, from 1.4911, with SL at 1.4779; The present bar did a lower low before triggering the long, so if nothing changes until it closes, when it will the SL will be moved to 1.4768, and we will place a sell stop at the same price.

tonirai replied Dec 1, 2008The red line isn't a sell stop - it's the SL for the pending sell stop. So if the reversal bar wouldn't have retraced, and price kept going up on the next bar, nothing would have happen

tonirai replied Dec 1, 2008Xpat, I see, your doubt now is why the SL on the sell stop is above the reversal bar? Like Kristo said: "this is a system built around Support and Resistance" It's the most important thing, and the reason this system is what it is - if you ...

tonirai replied Dec 1, 2008What didn't happen? The reversal bar making a lower low before triggering? No, that's why the orders are below the setup bar (at 1.4800). This is the normal situation.

tonirai replied Dec 1, 2008I think we're seing a regression in the rules' learning
Your entering level doesn't matter; What matters is the lower low since the setup bar. Imagine the reversal bar would have made a lower low, before going up and triggering the long - only in ...4H 5EMA System

tonirai replied Dec 1, 2008Yes: Before there was a setup bar, and then at 6pm you had a good reversal bar that made you go long; When it closed, you must enter the reverse order (in case you get stopped). The rule means "you never reverse a reversal bar", not "you never ...
