stersuhr replied Oct 24, 2008Ok I dont fully understand #1 but ill give it a shot. Ok a "normal" signal trumps everything else. If you get a buy setup and the reversal bar becomes a setup bar, when that closes you put a sell stop order in 5 pips below the new bar which is ...

stersuhr replied Oct 23, 2008I have "tried" to word the rules a little better. For the most part I found when I wrote them they were a little repetative so I took a few things out that were already said. They still remain the same, the system has not changed. If there are any ...

stersuhr replied Oct 23, 2008In the last year it averaged around +600 pips or more. This system works better with larger moves, in big ranges, and in trending markets. Very tight ranges is where this system will be break even at best. But the good thing is how often does the ...
