LadyForex - good to feel nervous in this game. Plenty of traders pull out with a profit, rather than hold for a full loss, hence I'm happy with 50% @ 10pips and 50% @ 28pips.
Ezmai - keep up the good work!!!

"Hmmm! I was wondering about 'tkbieber'. Shame."
And so was I- so much so I have gone over all the posts by tkbieber and reported them- asking for removal including any reference to the said, 'trading system'
Trade2Win has always been in the spirit of fellow traders helping each other to achieve. When somebody uses a bought trading system it's great they may want to 'enhance it' for the good of us all-but to try and 'sell it on' is beyond belief!!
So shame on you and I hope Trade2Win take the appropriate action against you!

Hi,
Well done to all who got out with 35/40pips.
I changed my setting to tp43 (as per deserteagles settings), so I'm still in, but sl=be, so not too worried. Would be interesting if the trade closes out at be, as it would be the first time in 10 weeks that a trade went to 35pips, but not 43pips.
Fingers crossed
M

WiseAmbitions - and others who backtest long term (??? !!!!!!)
If you've got data going back a bit ( 2007 or before) - and you're concerned about poor performance in previous years (the dreaded when will it happen again) - put 'Volumes' on your daily chart and keep clicking '-' to zoom out view - you should see that the increased 'volume' has enhanced the performance of FMT (ie since 2008 -2009). IMHO the increased 'volume', 'volatility' , has made FMT what it is. I'm working on the idea that low volume, volatility in the Asian session reduces the reliability of FMT. If you look at the last few hours of Asia during Christmas , you'll see the reduced activity.
Wise, I perceive a filter based on this low activity in the Asian session. It's kind of credible, low activity pre the signal time, will reduce the effectiveness of any signal.
