Alpari-US = NT today.

Thanks to reaction to the jobs report, SL -40. Interesting the lower job number has a much bigger impact than the improved unemployment rate.

For me, -40 GU, BE for +5 on EU.

That seems fair.

Sure.

It's not just the mechanics of the system, but the trader personality as well. I'm not good with short time frame, it makes me anxious, but the system I use will function the same on 5m or 4hr, so I stick with longer times because I handle them better. Another thing to consider is if you're...

I took a look at audusd and there isn't much movement overall. Are you using 35 or 40 for TP? I took a look at Dec and it looks like 25 or 30 might be more successful consistently. Maybe a SL40, TP30, BE 15?

If anyone is interested, eurusd was successful with the setting of sl 40, tp 35, be 20. 175 pips or so using the same start time on the FMT ea 4.2. I set the BE to be 0+5, this pair seems to either get there or not without a bunch of swings. That would have been a nice temper to gbpusd...

Sorry all. I misread my cheat sheet. No trade today.

No trade on Alpari US.

TMT = Turbo Morning Trade. A new EA.

Alpari US at 6:30 was no trade. The indicators suggested a long which would have won, but I'm going with the system. No trade is better than a loser.

Short on Alpari US for +35. Nice. I've found the EA to be stable enough to not trade manually, but I left all the settings the same as manual, no BE, no trailing. It would be interesting to figure a way to do 2-contract trades without having be awake for it. I'll mull it over.

I've been testing them together, same rules, for just a short time, so my eurusd may not meet performance standards. From early Nov they seem to run almost hand in hand. That's a very short time frame to base any real money on. My eurusd is on a demo account. I messed with gbp/jpy for a bit...

12/7 Both gbpusd and eurusd go long. Both tp at 40. Nice recover from yesterday. Alpari US.
