Well, to tell you the truth, you didn't miss anything - it's just that no one ever asked before so I never posted them. Also, have not shown my primary trading screen. The main difference in my primary trading screen and the one I post is that my primary has 5 different time frames with volume, all on one screen. Download Metatrader4 and use it - that's all I did.
First and foremost, I use price action and how it reacts when it approaches MAs and / or levels that I deem as being important. So far, the levels I deem as being important levels have proven to be accurate about 95% of the time for me.
Next, MAs are pretty much useless unless they trend. A flat moving average not only equates to a flat market (not trending) it also means I expect them to fail as regards to them being a reliable support or resistance.
I just want to be sure to clarify that before going further.......a flat MA = a useless MA.
In the charts I've posted, you are seeing MACD set to the std 12,26,9 and RSI set to 21......I am thinking about removing them completely since I rarely even use them except for monitoring them for possible divergences.
You will also see daily pivots that are automatically supplied by FXCM - they work well most of the time as well.
My MAs are standard MAs as well, 20EMA and 18EMA are more often than not, "the bible" for me. I also have the 80EMA, 200SMA and 50 SMA. I always have these MAs on all time frames and all charts and time frames - stocks, futures, FX - whatever.
I also use volume on my other screen, something that many traders disregard. I find it useful, but only mainly at extremes.
Hope this helps!
