If you mean the AUD CHF ? ... it has been a BUY ( marginal ) since 6 Jan on my charts AUD USD yes definately a sell, though price never actually reached the TMA upper band ( 14 pips away on my charts, so again not the ideal set up ) EDIT ... and I ...

I may be wrong but it was my understanding Bobs strategy is to close the trade when price reached the opposite TMA line ( unless closed before by other trade management rules, BE , jumping stop etc )? .... or his Close ea of course If that is ...
