Alrighty, I'm getting over the hot heads at Forex Factory and I like the little community of people we have on this forum.

Wise choice, much more civilised here ... welcome.

Yes. We have a team of mods who will not allow bullying, negativity, trolling etc. Dimwits get ejected without warning.

Thanks for starting this thread Jemook. I am looking forward to learning from everyone else here.

Verb,

I've a question about your verb's codex document. If the conditions of D1 Trend trade, H4 trend trade and H1 trend range trade are fulfilled, in which timeframe do you will send your order?

Thanks.

What is the indi on upper left corner of your screen. Where can I get it?

Armen, follow link http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=37&t=546 and get NB 10.2 TMA Slope Display v0.3.mq4 and put 10.2 TMA slope v.1.4B 4.30 for EA.mq4 in your Empty4 indicator folder for it to work

Cheers

Maudur I can try answer this for you. I haven't focused on range trading 10.2 yet as we've been trending pretty nicely the last 2 weeks. When it comes to range trading you'll want to drill down to a lower TF (15min,30min,1hr) and look for entries using the TMA or bollinger bands or perhaps you already have a ranging strategy that works well you can use that.

The trick is to range trade with direction of the higher TF.. So if the Daily is at .03 and the H4 is at .02 we know to only look for buys on the 15min,30min,1hr. So what we do is wait for price to go outside the BOTTOM TMA or Bollinger Band and then when price comes back inside you can put a buy in and aim to close it at the TOP TMA or Bollinger Band.

If you see that the TMA slope on the 4H then jumps to .05 while you are in the trade then you can hold it for longer, perhaps a trend is building.

Jemook,

Thank you very much for your answer. But if the pair is in dayly trend, ie. For example D1 slope = 0.5, and in H4 slope is also for example in 0.6 and another condition for UT are ok in D1 and H4, Do you trade in D1 or in H4 or in H1?

Thanks and congratulations for your results and this thread.

I just set some trades to trigger on a 4H 5.1 MA touch in direction of Daily trend. They all straight away went negative but all good, am holding on to them all for now.

SHORT
AUDJPY
AUDUSD
NZDUSD
AUDCAD

LONG
GBPAUD

I've noticed that the blue MA touch seems to work best if:

For a SHORT the blue MA is above the green and maroon MA's.
For a LONG the blue MA is below the green and maroon MA's.

I'll keep checking this out but those seem to be very good setups because the price has retraced significantly. Please comment if you have any thoughts on this.

I take my trades based on the 5.1 MA touch on the H1 or the H4. On the daily I'll trade a break of the pivot/support/resistance in direction of UT/DT

Thanks for answering this. I haven't the energy to answer questions. To everyone, read, re-read, read again the booklets. Use my codex as a checklist not a guide.
