Congrats on another week of nice pips! It was beyond fun following the system this week, made some good profit myself.

I have a follow-up on the previously posted question about letting the trades run for only a couple of hours. Why not let the trades run until the HGI says it's time to close, especially if you're using the H4 chart for the signals? Have you previously tried that and found that closing out before the session ends seems to capture the majority of the movement?

The second question is about the daily CSS. When do you think it will be usable again? And have you moved on to the D1 charts with the HGI when the D1 CSS is fully functional?

EDIT: One last question. Are the (daily/weekly/monthly) pivot points included in the HGI or could they also be useful determining potential exits?

All the best,
Robert

1) over the past few days, AUD appears to be climbing on the CSS while CAD has come out of the 'range' region and also looks like its on its way up. If you look at the chart for AUDCAD, there was a HGI signal given some days back, at around 0.9920ish and again at 0.9850ish. Based on CSS alone, i wouldn't have looked here and therefore taken this trade, but then I would have missed out on some pips. Can you confirm if you would have taken this?

2) do you refrain from touching any currencies or pairs that are in the 'range' region, even if they are crossing? What if one is outside and another is in a range.

3) on your charts, do you use any other indies such as semafor or sixths etc, to show when a previous significant S/R line has been hit?

Thanks in advance.

As some of you know I like to trade session opens. JPY session for 3-4 hours, EURO session 2-3 hours, and USA session for 3 hours and quit. I also did some AUD session for 2 hours this week a couple of times. I learned something real fast and boy was it nice. When those big arrows come up and there are 3-5 to one currency pair like GBP. Load up the bank because its going to move. Early in the week I was in the JPY session and all of a sudden GBP/NZD, GBP/JPY, GBP/AUD went bing bing bing within 5 minutes of each other. Well dang I watched to see what would happen and sure enough they moved strong up. Didnt trade them but just watched to see what was happening. Well I said OK see what happens.

Next day at the AUD open sure enough 4 AUD pairs gave me arrows so I played all four and bingo within minutes they were all in profit and hour or so later were all up 30+ pips. Later in the day in the EURO session all six GBP pairs fired off and I took 3 of them and they shot up over hundred pips in the next two hours. I began to watch this phenomenon and came up to some theories which I will try out this week.

When a currency moves at the beginning or just before a session and HGI sends 3 or more as a buy or a sell. Its moving baby so jump on board. I watched the GBP move early in the week. Caught a AUD move and finished later in the week a strong JPY move. Bombed out on a NZD one that did that but it was out of session and I shouldnt have taken it. So this week when I get chance I will try this:

AUD-NZD session---look to see if any aud or nzd pairs set off the arrows or blue wavy lines and enter if 3 or more pairs send arrows or wavy lines. Close 1-2 hours into the session
JPY session--Play JPY, AUD, NZD pairs to move during the first hour before/after the open close out 2-3 hours later.
EURO session--play GBP, CHF, and EURO pairs. Best moves came 2 hours after EURO open and close hour before USA session.
USA session--Play any pairs and take trades on currencies that gave at least 2-4 signals. Close out at EURO close and done. Winners or losers close out unless playing long term trades.

I did this using only the 4H signals so some sessions I had not trades. This week going to try 1H charts and see if at the beginning of a session I get multiple signals to trade a currency that is on the move. They come in bunches and quite quickly and seemed to work. We will see.
