    Excellent. Thanks for all the responses. I haven't been reading much news over the past 2 months or so and have noticed an improvement in my trading decisions. Less voices in my head has given me clarity in making these decisions.

    Tips on how to refine my system

    that is correct, i am a longer term trader. my time frame is between 1 - 12 weeks. i just think my entry rule is abit slow when it comes to identifying a trend based on the results so far. I'm not looking for a crystal ball. I'm just a new trader wanting some advice. That's all.
