That's better. Thanks.

Can't see the image, apfx. Just a load of html or something.

To exclude Sundays in FX or other markets click 'Options' then select 'Set time zone and trading hours' from the drop down menu. Attached is an image of the window that opens. Select the market in the window on the left and untick the boxes I have highlighted. As for the indicators, have you...

The Dow and S&P Indeces and 47 major FX currency pairs - real time. Everything else as end of day.

Do you know, I saw that it was non farm payroll day this morning in my Outlook calendar but completely forgot about it by the afternoon. You were very wise not to. I've been caught like that myself and it hurt! That non farm payroll report is today. So no trading for me then. A day off.

May I suggest you also use a 1 minute chart, also with a 60 ma, and use that to time your entries when the 3 ducks are lined up. Use the ma cross as the signal. An rsi(14) can also help. When it is overbought and all the ducks are lined up, look for a short entry. Pity you didn't try this a few...

I just heard about this system a few days ago. It seems to be doing really well these last couple of days.

Thanks jon. I'm trawling away. Lotsa stuff though. DonR

Hi, I'm new to this board and to stock trading. I would like to know how you select stocks to swing trade. Do you select from the ftse100 or do have favourite stocks you trade continuously? Thanks DonR
