Thanks for sharing this. Very interesting. Looked at it on FTSE at first glance appears to work pretty well. It's all about not trading against the larger trend...Something I am still working on !

Thanks. Will check it out later.

Love the name. I want to invent a system just to make up the name. Well, I do have the ShadowNinja Suicide System*. First thing in the morning, when you get up, go long on FTSE. Set a stop at 500.

Earlier today prices for the Usd/Cad where below the 60 period sma on the 4hr & 1 hr time-frames (steps 1&2 of the Duck's system). So we where looking to short this pair at some point when prices crossed below the 60 period sma on the 5min chart (step 3). We got the green light when prices dropped down to 1.0105, all our ducks where lined up in the same direction. Our target was suggested at parity - 1.0000 from our resident Economist, Eric. Well done Eric, your job is safe for another week!

Here is how the trade looked:

Important:By the way, we are not saying that The 3 Duck's Trading System is the "Holy Grail" of trading, of course it has it's losing trades & losing runs. We like to use it with our own market knowledge and view it as a common sense approach to price observation.

Enjoy,

Captain Currency.
