if you are a green rat, you wait for the second green candle to make a new high,

NO!!!



GREEN RAT REVERSAL - LONG ENTRY CRITERIA: 1) RED CANDLE CLOSES 2) GREEN CANDLE CLOSES 3) PRICE TOUCHES HIGH OF PREVIOUS GREEN CANDLE - ENTER LONG. STOP LOSS IS ALWAYS 10 PIPS.

1) price within 20 pips of the daily low - that is OPPORTUNITY

2) red candle closes

3) green candle closes - note the high price of the green candle.

4) enter long at the green candle's high price

5) STOP LOSS IS 10 PIPS

6) Take whatever profit you can.

today i even caught one of the bigger runs on the eu thanks to my new "exit play book". thanks, tro. ;-)
but i also had two losers. one was strange, i was forced to use a market order, the order filled totally off quote, but in my favor and since the stoploss was correct, i only lost 6.3 pips.
to avoid all the losers i should have traded with w1 color, i guess... but that would have meant no trading at all this week!

i'll post the screenshots later.

flex,
Trading with W1 color is no guarantee of eliminating all your losers. It might make the odds play more in your favor, but no method is 100% perfect.

Once you place your order...[highlight=yellow]NO ONE KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT[/highlight]

Remember the rat in the T-shaped maze...and you don't need 100% accuracy to be profitable in forex.

i know that. i am currently afraid of one thing: with the entry rules so clearly defined and my exit play book which now defines also rules for exiting, i have created a "system" which is totally mechanical now... and i know that no mechanical system is profitable in the long run...

flex... what is your daily goal in pips?


Looks like you gave back 10 pips on that +6.6 pip trade.

yes, i gave back some pips. but look at the 30 pips trade from yesterday. the second bar in the trade made a new high, then came back and reduced the profit by 50%. that was still ok for me and it proved right. i did the same today, but price came back even further and hit my sl.

i don't have a goal besides "6) Take whatever profit you can." ;)
