It's weird, but beside 5 JPY crosses signalling shorts, I can't see any decent trade.
The JPY scares me at the moment, so I'm doing nothing.

Managed to clear all except the JPY-trades from last week, making some pips.
Had to wait 6 days for the price to return where I could TP or BE. Mostly AUD and NZD pairs.

Wonder when things get back to ''normal'', whatever that is.

Well today is my 1st official day trading the 10.5! :D congratulations to myself and welcome I guess :)
Anyway yesterday I started, but didn't trade anything since it was such a slow day.

had a +100 pip on the gbpchf earlier today, closed it abt 1 hour ago.
I have a
AUDNZD Sell +43.80 pips profit right now
AUDUSD Sell +12.90 pips with an extra order if audusd breaks below DS2. I'm wondering if i'll close the USD trade though, because news is coming in less than an hour
I also have a GBPJPY short right now, which is +- 0 pips. You are right, JPY is scaring me..

USDCAD, Jem style. Please ignore the harmonic pattern, that is for another system.

It's not Jem style until you remove all those other indicators feeding you doubts ;) Kidding, I'm in that trade too, looks good.

My NZDJPY chart does not look like that, very different. Is it the correct pair?
Anyway, yesterday there was a big news (FOMC announcement) which triumphs any indicators

When the CSS lines cross and the colour is green, it means "go long" ... not short.

One other thing to watch, is the time frame you are trading.

Are you setting up the trades on the 1H TF?

Are you setting up the trades when the RSI2 is pinned high/low, and is price also at the Weekly Pivot Point (WP)? These things are crucial to success with this strategy.

What other information can you give us.

EDIT: The two charts you are showing us are the GBPJPY ... is this what you intended to show?
