Ok fiddling about, i seem to have sorted it,by changing my default chart profile the problem seems to have corrected itself.One to keep an eye on though.

Here's an example from this morning,if I'm misreading or doing something wrong here please tell me.

The times seem to have no bearing on it as I've checked at various times of the day,in fact I've just pulled up the Aussie 4Hr last 4 bars 3 Green and current one Red, click to 1 Hr then back to 4 and I have Red red Green current bar Red. It's like a completely different chart. It's bizarre and...

Don't know if anyone else uses this company,but there is something seriously screwy going on with their charts atm. I have them on default for the 4Hr and then go down to 1 Hr for entry.The other day I opened a chart up the 4 Hr showed two down bars I went down to hourly and it didn't look quite...

Yeah you're not wrong,strange thing the trade may have tipped it's hand on friday as it dipped down by a decent amount (40-50 pips) and I was so close to closing it out then. Hopefully a lesson learned

Think it might be best to wait until a bit after London open and see where the dust settles today. On a personal note I was sitting on nearly 400 pips profit over 2 trades which got absolutely tanked on the open,fortunate to come out with + 45 in the end.maybe a lesson on holding over the weekend?

Thats a shame,I like warts and all journals Good luck with everything

Yep,was 100 pips up,it's dropped to about 60 now but if it can take off again the big resistance isnt until 384 so could be a good ride from here.

Yeah I would personally if the trade looks good why not.I think NigelP uses very small initial stops so probably has a few attempts getting back in. On the trailing loss I can understand your reasoning and I'm sure they work for many but 10 pips seems almost guarenteed to be hit when you get to...

Moved my stop on GB/US to 055 now which is a few points better than break even for me so free trade,lets see if it can go a bit

I'm in the GB/Us so good luck. I'm not keen on a trailing stop myself and 10 is quite low if you're looking for a longer running trade. If you are looking for a shorter bag the points trade then maybe something like a set 20/40 approach is better?

Selling the JPY seems to be the best place to look for me,I wont be taking any trades as I am already in GB/JPY from yesterday and will be hoping it runs on.

Yes it works but you have to give a trade time to work out,it's not a scalping system. It isn't magical you have to apply discretion but it is a solid method for joining a trens with the odds in your favour. If you are interested in 3 ducks you should read through the thread especially Nigel P's...

I've gone into the weekend 40 pips up on both EUR/GBP and US/JPY I'm reluctant to leave trades on over the weekend but I'm really trying to school myself to let profits run more,stops are both at better than BE though.

Not keen on the new look at all,and daily charts dont seem to work properly for me anymore,lower time frames fine though
