Hi,
It is very interesting. But it is a system different from Shelley?! Ea serves you only as indicator(informer) and you enter Buy or Sell without the EA on the other criteria based on H1 and H4. Did I understand well? Because my English is very bad :oops:

Hi Celte, I am sorry for saying - Your English is not as bad as mine. :)
Actually my decision was based on NB 10.2 Slope Display indi not Shelley. It appeared in the pic just because I have them both on my screen.
In the time of market correction Shelley, which is looking only on D1 slopes, can drain account.
Therefore, I shift to lower time frames to find current direction strength.
Now, I am trying to find a way (actually playing with STF, SCTF, SCB and SCS settings) to tell Shelley trade with PA. It's much like Zypip is doing in its tests (see on page 81).

Looks like USDCHF, USDCAD, EURJPY, CADJPY, CHFJPY are getting close to the H4 5.1, so time for me to start looking to enter with Shelley. Steve I'll be keeping an eye on ShelleyJem to see how it coincides with when I want to open the basket.

EDIT Alrighty! I'm in.

Steve just a note - I can see that some of the 5.1 MA's have been hit but the EA isn't saying trade-able.

This looks better but I have not checked against the chart. Do me a favour and do a quick comparison of a couple to check.

Watch your session timings - this version trades and did as soon as I did a re-compile..

I am doing your risk% thingy.

:D

Whoops! GBPJPY and GBPUSD have not touched 5.1 H4 MA yet have indicated that they have.

Is SCTF setting is always lower than STF?

Thanks,

Another thought, when opening the basket you could go with a larger lot size on the pairs that hit the MA because they are most likely to go your way? Or is that been too greedy?

It seems so. With this strategie I wanted to get back the losses of the asia session. The result: My live account don“t exists further. :oops:

Hi there,

Personally I am not touching the STF as, I believe, this would be diverging too much from the NB 10.2 system which is still (at least for me) the fondations on which S, SJ or even Baluda are based.

Having said that, you might find something worth reporting :D
