One (probably dumbass) question: can I use the original MTF template for this, or do I need to use the attached indis to create a proper template for this spinoff? Everything seems to be showing alright but I want to make sure. All I did was shift the TF to the D1 and W1 on my charts (I use 2 charts per pair always opened).

Thanks in advance and wish you all a great day! Cheers!
Hi,

No problem using the original template, I just like my screen as clear as possible...whatever your personal preference is.

Cheers

After re-reading post 1, I realised I missed out 1 more important entry rule.

In addition to the other rules already posted, for a Buy trade
(iv) Trigger candle must have closed ABOVE 3SMA

and for a sell trade
(iv) Trigger candle must have closed BELOW 3SMA

apologies for the oversight, I have now updated post 1 to include this criteria

what is the exit if a trade never makes it to the plus 100 pip level? Based on what I can tell it is just the color change on the weekly arrow? Is that correct.

At this stage, that is correct!

Do any of you use this with exotics? I'm going to demo this using all the 40+ pairs of GP, just to see what happens. Let's see what happens with all the mad correlation that must be about to happen in my future trades... :lol:

Wish you all a awesome day and/or night. Cheers! :hi:

Hi, I don't trade the exotics mainly because the spread is generally very high, but possibly given this is a longer term strategy it may be suitable.

Let us know how you go :smile:

After some requests, I have added my template to post 1. I have stripped back John's MTF template to only the bare indicators I am using. For me personally, I prefer as clear a screen as possible.

Cheers

For closing purposes, do you check for changes on the weekly trend arrow on the weekly chart every day, or once a week? Thanks in advance, cheers!

I like to wait until the weekly candle has closed as depending on what happens during the week, arrows may change before the end of the week.
Already this week, we have had pairs that have dropped dramatically & then risen again just as dramatically...I don't like to second guess the market and will wait until the end of the week.
All times are UTC Page 3 of 39
