Oh yeah...deep retracement going on. As usual, must be careful with mondays.

More bad news on Spain, so expect eur to further drop during NY. Also watch out for some open gaps!

Nice to see those green pips

Nice to see you guys are waiting for retraces before jumping in. Just wanted to post a quick update on my baskets – I'm currently up around 3400 pips on open trades. Was up 4300 pips at the open this morning... Not bad for 2 trades

Some pairs look like done retracing, but I am taking no chance. Expecting further retrace over next day too..imo

Re those CHF basket pairs, almost all of CCS crossed on the H1 and are now converging on the 4H and D1. I am reading this as a warning to get out (if you got in). Anyone agree?

Depends how much you've risked. Right now I don't see anything that tells us that this trend is over. If you haven't bet the bank then wait it out, she should go right soon. If you see the pairs start dropping off into rangebound territory then it's time to cut it.

If you did get in wait for a retracement next time.. Like today's What a beautiful Monday setup we have on our hands.

Last night I took my first demo trade with this stuff, dipping my toe in with AUDCHF and EURAUD (which is basically a double-size position but it's an experiment). They retraced slightly and I set some "waiting to buy/sell" EAs on them. Did it too soon, when the market was still too close to the pivot, and it wiggled enough to hit my entry before pulling back now. Right now I'm getting close to my SL.

In retrospect the D1-to-H1 gap was contracting when I set the EAs. Should have waited for H1 to pull away and possibly bottom out. But no worries. I'm learning, which is why I'm doing it.

GBPCHF, NZDCHF, EURGBP, EURNZD are getting close to the point where I'd put the "waiting" EAs on them, or possibly enter at market when the H1 slope turns.

I did not enter on those CHF pairs today, but I could see where I would have days earlier (trying to figure out exits). My current thought is that I would have likely closed those positions when the H1 CCS all crossed, but who knows. Its tough to hold winners until the D1 slope starts to range.

As for the current retraces, I am watching the H1 CCS and price action around the weekly pivot for confirmation of a resumption of the trend. All demo.

ShelleyNow only trades once, when your trades close (if your using SN trade management) you need to remove the EA and re-attach it for the new basket
