titi_123, See the quote above from Spieler. I don't know how to explain it any differently. This was back when EUR/USD was trading around 1.59-1.60. Now the ratio would be 1.4 because thats where the EUR/USD is trading now.

Closed the position at EUR/CHF 1.5923 for a quick profit. Probably should've only closed half but live and learn.

I'm not an expert like Spieler but I'm wondering of you are not eliminating the USD risk by taking 1.4 or 1.5 lots of USD/CHF for every 1 lot of EUR/USD? I think that this would've helped your profit position on all three trades closed. For ...

I've been unsuccessfully trying to find the rules that Spieler posted 2-3 weeks ago. I don't remember having both long and short open at the same time as being part of the system.

Closed my short position for a profit earlier today. Could have closed earlier and then entered short again to pick up another profitable trade in the same day but I can't watch the charts all the time.

Open short at EUR/CHF 1.5955. One thing that I will have to get passed with this system is to ignore what I percieve to be the trend in the EUR/USD to take trades in the opposite direction if thats what the price action is saying to do. Right now ...

Fannie/Freddie — I think that this move is long term bullish for the dollar. However, over the short term it just looks like the U.S. economy is worse than people would like to think and could stay that way or get worse over the next 12 ...
