I can adapt Bob's Brainless Thingy so we do not even have to set our own pendings etc. Watch our for Bob and Bill's Brainless Thingy coming soon to a forum near here.

Bob,

THIS IS IT :) Hats off to you mate. Awesome system. All along I wanted to teach my wife a very simple system

so that she can learn & earn spending minimal time on screen. This system has nailed it. I am extremely happy with

it.Thank you very much for coming up with this one.

Went over a month of M15-charts on German Bund futures. One setup at 08:00 local time, another at the opening of NY. Adapted TP/SL to Bund ATR's . Netted +150 pips (at 10€/contract...)

Hey Bob,

Visually backtesting and it's freaky how well this has worked on EURUSD recently.

I was thinking to increase R:R per trade you could:


Short Setup

1. Wait for retrace to +10 and enter SHORT via sell limit with a SL at +20 (10 pips risk)
2. Set the TP to -10 or -20 (20-30 pips reward)

Long Setup

1. Wait for retrace to -10 and enter LONG via buy limit with a SL at -20 (10 pips risk)
2. Set the TP to +10 or +20 (20-30 pips reward)

...

This effectively gives you 1:2 or 1:3 R:R. You'll probably miss a few more setups but you're getting in at a better price. Love your work mate.

Cheers,
Jem

Also - if you turn off the Fixed minimum and Fixed maximum the bars on the Accelerator Oscillator are easier to see:

Not sure if you had this on for a reason though.

Sorry for the triple post - One other thing we should keep in mind is that pairs like GBPAUD,EURAUD etc have much higher pip movements so may want to adjust the distance between each line on those.

I've set GBPAUD and GBPNZD to +/- 30 pips and +/-60 pips

Cheers,
Jem

Yes I did that on purpose there were pairs that you could hardly see the bars and you wouldnt know the color. So I put the fixed minimum to see the bar colors on all pair clearly. How the bars move and the indi are irrelavant, it is just picking the color and then placing the trade. It was the best indi I tested to give opening direction. Now if someone comes up with a better one that is ok but being able to see the bar and what color it was is the most important thing. If you look over 24 pairs with the indi at normal some pairs simply wont show the bars very well.
