EUR/CHF — IB formed. Below both the 89ma and the DPP however right on top of S1. The play would be to the short side and in this case the normal entry would take it past the S1 anyway. Anyone else looking at this? image

Range for Entries/Stops — I see that many times the range of the trigger bar is a limiting factor to entering trades. Is there a good rule of thumb to use as far as a percentage moved/number of pips moved/or size versus ATR to know when to ...

On my chart the bar started at 5:30EST was an IB. Its a 30 minute chart. Right after I posted it the price moved down to my lower trend line and would've been good for a quick 30 pips. I don't see what isn't within the guidelines of this system.

IB's on the EUR/CHF and EUR/JPY — IBs on both of these pairs but I don't think either are a good trade. Don't know which way the EUR/JPY is trending and the EUR/CHF trade would have to large of stop losses and to big of an initial move for ...

Swissy — My chart doesn't show an IB on the USD/CHF like yours does. It shows the bar at 10:30pm EST went down to 1.1950, lower than the 1.1952 low of the 10:00pm EST bar.

GBP/USD — IB after strong rally sitting just over R1. Could be a good short with a break below R1 which would be required for our entry anyway at 1.4857. Anyone else looking at this potential trade?

EUR/USD IB — Looks like an IB just closed out. Next bar hit +3 but didn't take the trade yet. Above the 89Smooth, above the DPP, looks like daily trend is up. Anyone have an opinion on this? Would post a chart but not smart enough, or know the ...

Ods — The way I understand the system you exit an individual position after a .25% move in the profitable direction from the entry of that position. The exceptions to this would be if you've held a short position for 10 days and are losing ...

Lost 45 pips on the 1st trade, USD/CAD that H1H1 pointed out I shouldn't have taken anyway because of the imminent news. Closed the 1st lot of the USD/JPY trade for +19 pips and let the 2nd lot ride. It ended up hitting the BE stop. Net Result: -45 ...
