Hi Rostaus,

Is the script [indicator?] working for you?

Hi Gertje,

the indicator works well, not pretty viewing though : ) Have you loaded it as an indicator?

Yes, I did.
Changed the date-stamps in the settings and only got the yellow headers.

I'm with Cowboy IBFX aus, thought it may be a history prob. Downloaded a new Empty4 version, installed it
and it works immediately, perhaps its broker related.

Are any of you 10.x experts seeing any setups today, looking through the 20 pairs I watch I can't see anything, after a disastrous 1st week of trading live and trying to cherry pick the good looking tades I ended up 200pips down to some CAD & GBP sells :arrrg: now with AUD & NZD in same the same posistion on the CSS I'm not sure I want to touch those.

Yesterday cherry picked EUR/USD for a sell, CSS + DL + Sto all good so put a pending 10pips under daily pivot just to be sure only to get home and see it 50pips down and lights changed to ranging, so take another hit or hold and hope?
No work today so plenty of screen time so if any of you kind experts could post up some trade ideas based just on CSS & Sto & DL's it'd be much appreciated, I took off the TMA's to keep it simple and I'm just trying to understand where I'm going wrong, money management is one area I'm going wrong but thats another story, so far 100% losers using what looked good signals, I guess I could just be unlucky but I'm leaning more to being thick & useless :(

Most pairs are in "retrace-mode" at the moment. I have trades open on 16 pairs, most of them leftovers from yesterday that didn't follow through [bold]yet[/bold].

JPY sells [long the xxxJPY pairs] are good at the moment, on the H4 CSS the JPY is lonely at the bottom.

Thank's so much for the reply Gerte, looking at the JPY sells the 4H & 1H sto's are pretty much all way high so this would be a sit on your hands time and wait for a retrace or go with the trend and get in now, this is where I went wrong last week I think, when Bob said to sell the euro I looked at the charts and the sto's and my 1st thought was well I've missed those moves. EURGBP has retraced and might be setting up for a sell or have I got it wrong again :oops: You know I think there might be such as thing as too much screen time.

It's a H4 system, threat it as such.... :smile:

Regarding the sticky Sto7; for example the attached GBPJPY chart.
The Sto7 is at the top for the last 4 days, meaning its a strong ride up. I entered and exited along the x.000 and x.500 lines.

I considered short EURGBP but H1 TMA and D1 STO7 edging up. I'm going for real trend trades. Range trades on demo for now.

i think i'm slowly but surely getting to grips; using bold traders strategy with the tma settings, looking at the daily css, then th 4 hour you can see the retracement, so waiting until the price enters the correct channel lower channel for buys, upper for sells, then looking at bobs groovy new stoch, with a humorous alert, and finally looking at the dummy, if all lines up in you go, i;m sitting on a few negative trades at the moment, but i'm sure after the retracement they should come right, hopefully, but at least i'm understanding the whole system a lot better,just seen yamez post i'm short eurgbp, from yesterday so i will hop in again once the stoch gives alert, mistakes i'm making is going in at the end of the move like the eurgbp trade
