So where to actually enter your trades - I guess I can speak also on behalf of Gary, we are clear on the slope -0.8 <or > 0.8 but do you enter on break of any weekly / monthly pivot? What constitutes a break ? EG 10 pips above resistance / below support? Or you simply enter anywhere at a given time eg UK open?

I got away with 480 pips manual just entering when the mess on UK open started but that's luck and not skill.....

Stupid nubi question - the NB10.2 EA only on one chart like for Shelly EA or on every pair one trades?

Cheers

I even said "but from what I recall, NB only enters either on break of or bounce at daily / weekly pivot lines combined with MA cross confirmation (there are different MA 5 shifts associated with his currency groups 1 - 5). I will however re-read the manual for the fifth time and the last 100 or so posts of NB.....". I did that but am still unclear. I think that till now only a few aspects of the system are incorporated in the 2 EAs.... I did re-read the whole lot but still not clear...

So, I am with you, I can not even get the EA's to work and any attempt to manually trade this, caused losses for me - apparently fxozgirl has the manual part done pat - maybe she can enlighten you / us.....

I have also noticed that some people here have successfully proposed to incorporate certain aspects that look like to have been taken from Al's Extreme TMA thread over at FF - but I might be wrong on that....

Cheers & onward to a better understanding of NB 10.2

Mop

PS: I have pm'd fxozgirl and asked whether she would share her insights with us

Hi Mop, thanks for the vote of confidence, but I have only been trading off the D1 trending trades manually (and so far that's been great)...I still really haven't got a handle on the range trading myself yet.

My limited understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) is that SRF's/CT trades are taken when the slope is less than 0.4/-0.4 thereby indicating that price is ranging. Once the slope indicator shows ranging on the D1 & 4H charts you drop to the 1H to look for SRF's.

I would suggest you contact Jemook & Verb who both do have an excellent handle on all aspects of the manual trading of 10.2 and from what I have seen Kelisa is also very good as well.

Good luck guys, I also want to learn this manual aspect as well...although my NB 10.2 EA is trading very nicely whether it's trend trades or range trades, so take a look there as well.

Cheers

Shelley

Has anyone tested long enough to know if the expectancy of the Daily 10.2 system, just taking trend trades alone, is sufficient for a stand alone system. It would seem that enough uncorrelated pairs will trend enough to make it worthwhile.

Also, a dump question here. Would the EA continue to work if I put the machine on sleep or hibernate?

Thanks

So where are all the SRFs and CTs in that? How does that fit with Verb's rules? How do you combine the SRF/CT/etc ideas with the TMA/OWH/etc indicators? How do I put this all together??
