I am testing version 1f since last week. So far so good. It opens 10-12 pairs, usually. I set it to open 1hour after Asian open, 30mins before london and 30mins before newyork. As for today's NFP, I set it to open 30mins after npf, thus causing it to have 1 negative BUY trade of USDCAD. Besides that, all trades are positive. Today alone is about 500pips. ;)

So how much u gained in terms of pips since you started using Shelley?

What TP do you use to close all. Do you close basket at close of each session and with same TP?

Time setting is I guess based on my PC time. Right? Asian open means Sydney or Tokyo?

Thankx

I forgot to mention... I have added 3 additional charts to my new setup also... one for each session, obviously... but I call this my scalp setup, and it only traded two pairs this morning for the NY session... Basically, I changed slope TF to 240 with confirmation TF of 15M and shoot for minimal pips.... Well, it banked ~150 pips this morning on two trades...LMAO... Anyway... Fun Times!!!

This all seems too good to be true. Forex can't be this easy. Atleast I cannot believe it. I would love to see one fail day for this strategy to know how much max risk I need to be aware of using this one. If there is none for next 2-3 months then I m going live with NN method (manual or Shelly EA or NN 10.2 EA I will decide later)

Ok for record purposes since May 11th using NN10.2 both manually and auto EA for NN10.2 (just from this monday) I bagged over $2700. (I m yet to test Shelley-there r so many versions that I am confused now and we do not even have history of changes to all versions in one place)

I am the only one who had a all time NEGATIVE record today?

Here are the results of Shelley opening trades 30 minutes before NFP :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

-1.000 PIPS or more, I didn`t count...

Cheers OBO

So guys what does that tell us?

If there is a retracement or surge then Shelley fails. I think that since we are having nice trends and short and few retracements therefore Shelley is rockin but what when things get back to normal?

I am therefore for now reluctant to use it and am using 10.2 auto trading EA and NN 10.2 manually trading
