Please see attached xls file for details.

That's not too much trades, makes sence when one is behind the computer and is able to follow signals.
Unfortunately, my trading is a bit haphazard and its not as systematic as I would like it to be. That is the reason I am trading 40 cents per pip and not higher. Simply put I am not in the same league as BOB, AL, Boldtrader, etc.

To be honest when trading many pairs we have to observe the correlations. Obviously you have to be selective in the trades and not trade every single signal. Some traders specialize in certain pairs which in a way makes sense because they tend to learn all its nuances and peculiarities. However, Bob has always tended to trade all the pairs which the broker offers when the signals are in place.

I strongly urge traders who have just come across BOB`s thread to visit forexfactory and read his posts of few years ago (in particular system 4 and 5) when he was publishing his trades in advance and kept running totals. Sometimes there were open trades of 15 pairs or more. Not all of them were profitable. Some of them were deep in negative territory and were closed with losses of 100s of pips.
In a way this is how hedge funds trade! Not all of the trades make a profit, but by spreading the risk and NOT keeping all your eggs in one Basket You cover the losses. In other words Diversification.

Kind regards

Nice day so going to shower and read. Astral is a great host and enjoyed his company. Went out for Fish and Chips, the Sky Eye and Westminster Abbey. Plan to see Steve tomorrow. Those who live in London we are free and open to meet somewhere for lunch or dinner on Wed. In fact would love to meet at Astral's Persian Restaurant. Thurs we go on to see Al in Madrid.
Hi Bob.
Just saw this massage, I cannot believe that not only you are in London but you and Stevie and others are meeting at Aloonak Res in Kensington area.
As I'm only 20 mins cycling away, I would love to meet you guys on Wed.
I'll check the Board for the time.
Thanks.

I had a wonderful afternoon this afternoon - I got to meet the Bobster.

I tell you guys, he is even more charming, entertaining and inspirational in the flesh than he is online. We are talking about a serious Prince Among Men here. The hours just flew by.

We took lunch in an English pub and spent most of the afternoon there. I reckon that he had made friends with just about everyone in the building by the time we left.

His wife Patti is lovely. I adore her. Those two are made for each other. I have never met a better matched couple.

Any of you within hailing distance of that lunch in London tomorrow, make sure you make it. Cancel your plans for the day if need be to make sure you can meet him. Pull a sickie at work. Anything. Just be there.

Meeting Bob today was one of the highlights of my life.

Thanks Bob. You are a total star.

My sentiments exactly I AGREE completely could not put it better myself. BOB and Patti are charming, delightful, genuine couple who are kindred spirits. Full of inspiration and positive energy.

The MA 60 is Below the MA 240 but the Alert Says Range Buy, I had a Range Sell Earlier ON with the wavy thingy right Underneath the Candles and PA but the Move Kind of Stalled in it's Tracks....



Any Ideas and Comments are Welcome to Explain this Scenario which I am Sure Most Traders will Obviously come Across whist using this Indicator.


Happy Trading Y'all,

xrismak ;)
I am not sure what you are thinking with this pic. All 5 large red arrows are winners. Why would you not trade them?? Then the wavy lines popped upped telling you the run is done. How much clearer can it get?? The range buy is telling you to close your sell trade and also telling you a buy here is really not going very far. So why chance it when everything else is telling you strong downtrend until the wavy lines show up.

darshanag » Wed Dec 03, 2014 3:11 am wrote:first let me thank bob and the 'team' for developing and selflessly sharing this indicator ! You guys are truly awesome !!! I'm forward testing the same (since back testing is not possible due to 'repainting' business !) and very much looking forward to the results.

Couple of quick questions -

1. I've noticed that in most instances the charts I'm testing (including EURUSD H4) arrows that should signal entry (big red / green arrows) does not appear until I re-initialize the indicator by switching timeframes. Eg. In the attached pic 1, the big red arrow did not appear at the time it should have and came only when I accidentally switched time frames and went back to H4 after several candles had passed. Why could this be happening ? (DLL imports and external import boxes are ticked in the HGI indicator)

2. Pls refer pic 2 - H1 EURUSD. Shouldn't there be a sell signal - big red arrow -(as per the rules) in the area indicated by the black ellipse ? It did not appear even when I changed timeframes.

Appreciate any assistance on the above..

Cheers !

Your pictures are from 2 different TF. They are running totaly different formulas. I have explained this difference twice now. Once in the booklet and in another post. The 60 MA on the 4H is the 2MA on the weekly. The 60 MA on the 1H is the 15MA on the 4H or a 2MA+ on the daily. Of course you will get different signals.
All times are UTC Page 13 of 295
