Just wondered if you had considered using the Traders Trick Entry?

http://www.earnforex.com/forex-e-books/ ... _Entry.pdf

Also, just curious as to the MA setting you decided on...are there different considerations when using Renko Bars?

Cheers


Brookmyre,
Thanks a $million$ for giving reference to this information.

The 1-2-3 pattern can be found in trending or range-bound conditions ..

Due to limited hours I am taking small bites out of the market ...

10 pip stop loss and 10 pip targets , 2-3 trades and quit for the day ...

Hi dchappy,

Ive been reading your other thread also and im kinda hesitating when taking some of the set-ups.....perhaps you can help :D

The hesitation being DIVERGENCE :lol:

I find myself reluctant to pull the trigger because i see divergence and hence miss out on perfectly good trades which are good for maybe 10-15 pips...
please advise and also you are still on 5 renko with this....

I think its a case of dis-regard all else and trade what i see for 10 pips a pop :D

Hi dchappy,

This is what i meant but i guess its pointless taking notice of this on such a small TF as you alluded to :D

I will just have 3 renko and 50 sma as filter and take everything else off my chart i think :P and just trade what i see :shock:

I can only trade from 15:00 gmt through to approx midnight/01:00 gmt
looking to make approx 30/40 pips,is this feasable with this method in those hours you think??

TIA

Yes , I would leave the macd off for now ..

How about this .. set your chart to 3 renko with the 50 ma..

Remove macd and the Semafor indy ..

Then mark the 1-2-3's that you see and re-post the chart here ..see what we discover......also if you would ..draw on your chart the hrs you are able to trade ....Thx
