10.4 A Complete System

[cjthomson]

Haha you greedy fella, if you TP at WMS1 you would have been sitting pretty. anyway seriously doubt it will revisit the low point again...

I guess I'll revise my TP then !!

I don't want anyone to think I'm being greedy.

Its EURNZD I'm concerned with. All the effort to make something of all these trades and one pair runs things back to zero. Have to learn how to limit this damage.

this is why I usually add only one line at a time. I know guys have had some tremendous results with the 20 reentry thing but it also can backfire on you. When you saw those bars go from green to yellow you should know those trades are in trouble. I closed my eur/nzd buy for a loss but it was only a 1 level trade.

If you are going to do that kind of trading you have to close out your profits and make sure you only have one or two losers at any time.

So, I took some money off the table, and put in some new pending orders at half time.

Thanks Bob, trading hasn't been this exciting until I found your system.

Looking at EURNZD, I've marked up three possible reversal back into the trend areas, shown in blue on the chart. The zones are a confluence of fibs 61.8, 100, 161.8, trendlines, 240MA, and pivots

First reversal zone is a bounce off trendline, between the 50-61.8 Fib (last week low to high), also between WP and WMS1. If price breaks lower then next support is

Second reversal zone is a bounce off 240MA, 100 fib level, WMS2, if price breaks lower, only one more support found at

Third reversal zone is the outer trendline, 161.8 fib, WMS3, after that we're in a downtrend.

Easy. Drop down to H1 and close when the H1 CSS closed red. You would of taken a loss at 1.598 but wouldn't be in DD and who knows how far this will drop.

Some of you Aussies can comment on this article. I dont think it is that bad. China's economy is slowing down in growth but it is still growing so I dont see this worst case scenario playing out. AM I right on this one?

Hi Bob,

No, it's not quite that bad. The economy on this side of the world has been strong for various reasons. China's slowdown has had an affect on resources stocks and overall strength but China is not the only economy on this side and a few others are showing good growth. With the ordinary budget, interest rate drop and the anticipation of the election, which might see a change of government, it has knocked the Aussie dollar off its perch - the nice run we had recently. There are challenges but by far not as great as what the US and Euro zone had and still having to get back on track.

B.t.w I like your system very much and have recently got back into trading and picked up from the 10.4 update. Hopefully I can make some contributions over the coming weeks.

Does anyone have any thoughts on a short for AUDCHF if it breaks south of the Weekly Piv?

Definitely take the WP.

I trade 10.4/V5 agressively, and already put pendings from WP on all the daily lines to DS1 where I plan to TP.

hi All,

Regarding stop loss:
1. If css colour has turned the other way around (I have "buy trade" and css turns from green to red) , do you close the trade or leave it till it hits the stop loss (in hope price goes back up) ? I think the booklet says to close it straight away. How about overnight trade, should I close it straight away as well? If both are true, then DD% should be kept very minimal but I look at some of past trades here, some losses could be more than 100 pips which the css colour should change before this happens ?
2. Do you wait for the candle to close before close the trade (maybe it changes again) or as soon as the colour changes ?

I am sorry if this has been covered before.

Thanks

My aud/chf (however css is turned to green now but it is not css trade but WP line cross so I believe it is still valid).
