Tro, what does the myStopLoss value do in the TRO_BZ_Skyline? Also, is this the one you have in the top chart?
Also, with the EURUSD (havn't checked with other charts) I've found every hour the trigger gets hit then the profit target either up OR down, without a doubt. The histogram shows this, but the BZ gives a better visual. It's just a matter of trading the right way (long or short) then take your profit.
Although one can only assume it hits the entry line first then keeps going to the profit target line, then, later in the hour you could see a reverse. Which if this is the case, MOST of the time you could trade in the correct direction in the first place.

one small point
while i do love the pivot point, I do think the concept of looking for 3 to 4 same color candles in a row before going in for a reversal may be a bit of a red herring?
Would i not be more accurate to say look at the relative lows and highs than candle color itself. While a red candle is typically associated with a lower low and lower high than the previous candle, it is not always the case. The same goes for green candles. Just because there is a correlation between the price action and candle color, it doesn't mean there is any sort of causation relationship - highs and lows are what count (i think )
While the whole color thing may be a good rule of thumb, it may keep you out of a few too many good trades if you are just playing one currency
Just a thought. I'm sure it has been mentioned by others

Folks:
+120 pips today.
Since over at babypips there is a fuzz over "long term" stuff I took a trade on the 4h chart and waited till the next day to see results. Of course I widened my mental pip loss (No stoploss was ever used). I woke up to find that once again PRICE crossed the horizontal lines and it even went so low as to have the pip count at +200 pips, but I was asleep at that time. I was tempted to place a trailing stoploss but decided to just take the 120 instead. Like TRO says price is price.. it moves the same in any of the timeframes.
I'll post the chart with the trade once my machine is up (I am remotely connecting to my machine, it must of disconnected).
OH!, that brings another item to light. This was my first trade from a remote location, that is, I was not physically in front of the machine when I made the entry. Kewl, I can now trade from anywhere.

Hi,
I finally finished reading the whole thread, beginning all the way in Babypips. I've been an admirer of TRO's work a long time ago, but I haven't been able to trade a lot because of my work. However, I think its time to begin being more consistent in trading, because I see a great opportunity with what TRO is trying to make us SEE.
I'll try to do the homework and post some trades now and then.
Thanks TRO for sharing.
