stersuhr replied Oct 22, 2008Howard has it right as far as the system goes. The bar your chart is pointing to made a higher low that the bar howard was pointing to. Yes they both broke the 5EMA but so did all the other ones on the way down as well, and you kept using the lowest ...

stersuhr replied Oct 21, 2008Im not exactly sure what you mean by a template? All you need is a 5EMA applied to the high and a 5EMA applied to the low. Thats it. The rest is all price action. -Sterling

stersuhr replied Oct 21, 2008They are. But in order for the trade to get triggered the high of one of them would have to broken and it hasent happened yet. So you just keep using the bar that makes the lower low and if it keeps going lower you keep having a new setup bar until ...

stersuhr replied Oct 21, 2008From my experience the G/J is by far way to choppy. Volatility is good if its directional but the G/J is not. The E/J is definatly a lot better. As Ive always said you are welcome to backtest any pair you like and post results, it would be a great ...

stersuhr replied Oct 21, 2008I have to agree with you and that why if I come back to the computer and see this has happened I leave the trade on, I just move the stop 5 pips below the new low to protect me from an early stop out. Good point Volcano. -Sterling

stersuhr replied Oct 20, 2008I assume by "level" you mean the trade level? So I would set it to a negative number? I used to use "2" on trade level so I would use "-2" to have something comparable that will also have reversal signals? Thanks again! -Sterling
