GBPAUD H1. Missed the signal on this one, could enter but don't fancy chasing trades. Steves stoch EA will wait for a fresh signal, if any. Patience.

Can't wait to see Bob's take on TMA and CSS. I'm not using CSS due to my brains stubbornness to understand, which may well be my undoing. The understanding will come with that :idea: moment..

Agree it can be confusing - maybe a simple crib sheet would help for the clear CSS crosses/separations -
ie - USD strengthening, CAD weakening therefore USDCAD Long
USD strengthening, GBP weakening therefore GBPUSD Short
Of course this would be simplified, but it may help with that "ah-ha" moment.
Cheers

CSS is only a reference to go look. If you study the charts only you should come to a similar conclusion. The one thing it helps though is you can see two currencies trading places strength/weakness wise. Hopefully at some time I can put a book together on its concepts. It will be easier to comprehend once that is done. Problem is work wise I am swamped.

The TMA you are using which version and the double lines, What are your settings? I want a TMA version that sends a warning. At some point we will get someone that can put a simple signal system together. Please post what version you use and if it is one that sends a signal. I am getting a version with everything one it but for now here is a test version. This will give you the CSS with the double set of numbers on 4H and below TF. This will not be a final version since I have made some changes from this one today but now need to see it work live.

Thank you for your thoughts on CSS and your template.

Place the TMA+CG indicator on twice. One set to bands deviation 1.6185, the other 1.272, BoldTraders settings. The Indicator does have alerts but I have never tested them. I'll test the alerts.

My broker is still on build 509, so I do not know if TMA+CG will work with later builds.

OK got it thanks. This is what my new screen is shaping into. I still have to get the different warning signals together. I like it when price is below the DP and the DP is near the bottom of the TMA. CSS shows one currency is stronger than the other and you pull the trigger on a trade in the direction of the stronger currency. The crossing the DP or xxx.050 or xxx.100 are solid entrances. I have done very well with that kind of trade.

GBPAUD H1 update. Ended up entering on a round number like Bob does. So much for patience.

Hi Bob,

Looks really good!
How does the CPU manage this chart times 24?

@ Yamez; I normally enter and exit manually, tried the flexi-stoch-EA and got this trade;
Short@1.83399 -> TP@1.83089 for 31 pips.
Entered manually short @ 1.8300 with pending short @ DP.

The only delay I have had is only with the info page. If you click to quickly between TF it will falter for a bit but I have had not problems with the charts.
