Re: Simple as 1-2-3

Captain's question was for me and about this specific method, not for you and your methods. Also you haven't looked at the statistical data for my strategy, I have. The data shows that for the NQ CCI/TLB method, moving the stop as outlined in the rules given in this thread creates the highest profit...

Re: Harmonics

Update: EUR/AUD - broke to a new structure high, but that push up didn't violate the fib extension limit for the harmonic pattern to remain valid. AUD/JPY - this pattern is on a Daily chart and is a long ways away, both in terms of price and time, from possibly triggering. NZD/JPY - is very close to...

Re: Harmonics

Well, NFP numbers that came out this morning got things moving for a lot of markets including NZD/JPY. The move up officially broke the harmonic pattern structure I've been watching for a few days, so no trade on this one at this time. I'm searching for possible setups on other pairs - will post whe...

Re: Simple as 1-2-3

Hey Captain, The green down arrow marked the candle at which I entered the trade. When I'm using the CCI method on forex, I place my initital stop above the last swing high for a short and swing low for a long. In this case, it was just above the black candle, two bars back from the entry candle. Th...

Re: Simple as 1-2-3

Obviously, they're not all winners. But at a 70%-80% win rate, and about a 3 to 1 reward to risk ratio - I'll happily take the small hit and move on to the next trade. This loss only about 12 pips:
