Hi Carlos,

do you define the BZ as open +/- 10 pips then?

That's obviously different than TRO's "original" tried and tested method which calls for +/- 4 pips. How did you decide on 10 pips? Do you add the bid/offer spread on top of that? What about cable? What settings do you use for the pound? Thx in advance

I came out with 11 pips by testing it, but mostly is something I feel comfortable with.

For the Wire I used 20 pip for entry and a 20 pips Tp, but I try to set sl to breakeven ASAP. (anyway, i like eurusd much more for BZ)


Its worth saying, that, as mentioned by TRO, is better to look for an edge by only trading long when price is above both the daily open and the weekly open and only trade short when the price is below both the daily open and the weekly open.

Carlos

If you look at my DRAIN THE BANK LIKE A CASINO thread, you'll see it is the buy zone with a 9 pip trigger.
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU TRADE, IT'S HOW YOU TRADE IT!

Please do NOT PM me with trading or coding questions, post them in a thread.

Hi guys,
I would like to make an EA for the BZ, can you point me to a simple boolean strategy? I think it would be easy for me to code.

Carlos, well done! Those are very good results...what are your BZ settings for other currencies, other than Eur and Cable if I may ask?
