Might be of interest. Cracks in the Great Wall?

Hi Bob,

While thinking about last week I got a brainfart.

What if we trade the currency indexes instead of the crosses?
This would limit the numbers of charts to 8, and be very much in line with the CSS on the info page.

I just don't know of a broker that offers them all.....

Please comment, Jim
Again on your secondary, you are buying GBP and then selling GBP.

All told, if you take all 7 positions, you are roughly:

flat EUR
1x short USD
1x short GBP
2x long CHF
3x short CAD
3x long JPY

Visit http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... m.php?f=51. Bunkers has the Big MAC Double Big Mac, which trades just the indexes.

Hi Bob,
two question/comment concerning the use of the CSS indicator.
in the template #10.4 info page 5.13.13 v8 I see that
ignoreFuture=true is set for the 10.5 CSS indicator.
Considering what you write in 10.4 CSS info page (don't want to repeat the "re...g" word) I would expect
ignoreFuture=false

Concerning the indicator 10.5 CurrencySlopeStrength1.0.7d:
If on a 4h chart you set auto Timeframe=true and Timeframe=D1 then the chart shows TF 4H.
I would expect D1.

I found one, Liteforex uses Sigtrader and offers the 8 indices.
Loaded the charts, see if it has legs...

Jim,

I'm not criticising you, only trying to help you, like we do in this forum.

I'm just trying to show you that you are buying a currency and then selling the same currency at the same time.
