Hi there! Thanks for yet another gift Bob, you are amazing. I want to try this, but I need to have the alerts sent by e-mail so I can receive a notification while on the day job. I tried to go inside the alerts indi, but it doesn't have any email alert options... Maybe any kind soul with programming skills that could fix this? Thanks in advance, cheers! :hi:

Trading is more than just an alert system. Obviously GBP and EUR sell arrows and some CT arrows with the trend is what I followed. But why? I know the euro and gbp are going down right now from a fundamental point of view. GBP downtrend was interrupted by the Scottish thing but the gbp is affected by what is happening with the EUR. So once I see the indies showing me it is happening I can also ride the fundamental with it.

The 2nd thing you can see is the S/R areas as the arrows line up horizontally across the screen. As long as you use the arrows for your SL it is feasting time in these ranges with this system because it gives you near perfect entrances on the range both up and down. If price breaks out then you are out and out of trouble.

Euro fundamentals are not very good right now and China's fundamentals are not very good. So the eur/aud is bouncing up and down in a very nice range. I can see that so I can trade the arrows both directions but in reality I am trading the euro weakness. It is almost like following the JPY last year but not quite as dramatic.

As I understand the system more I then can add my CSS reads and go with the flow of the currency.

Here is the eur/aud on the daily chart. It is at a decision point again of going up or down. It is going to depend on whether the aud or the euro is going to be the weaker of the weak. I am going to stay with euro sells until this R area, which was also S earlier is broken.

There is an email function in the Empty4. Just go to tools, options, email, and it has a set up there. I dont know if that will work but I believe that is what it is for. If someone wants to try to add an email function I can send the program to someone and they can add it.

Bob, I can't wait to start using this on a 4 hour chart, but here in the Northeastern U.S., I couldn't resist putting it on a 5 minute chart for 9 pairs during the past hour of the Asia session.

Lots and lots of signals on the 5 minute timeframe, but I handpicked a few while watching cooking shows with my wife, netting just over 2 pips on two GBPUSD trades, and a nifty 32+ pips on GBPNZD, AUDUSD, and EURAUD trades (all sell trades). That's it. I'm done until the morning. Not bad for quick scalping! :smile:

Thanks again for all you do!

CSS has been the most important influence in my trading for the past few months. I made the mistake of ignoring it in some trades two weeks ago and I am being punished very badly as a result. I get your point regarding CT trading in lower TFs whilst trend trading in higher time frames. What used to make a big dent in our profits with 4H VER5 CT trades was the big trends resulting in death trades. CSS will be the salvation of these trades.
Kind regards

Intresting - the sell arrow shows on the 240 MA signals template, but not on the 240.V.7_Both MA signals template...In fact you have a sell signal on the first template & a buy signal on the combined template :youknow: :smile:
