ICC Forex System testing

overnights then.........:sleep:......

markets take a little sleigh ride down.....and tag goes north......gold rises eventually....look at the EURO on the right side 1h corrie hybid.....jees bye bye and dont shut the door.....

c'mon Gold , work with the equity markets for gods sake :rolleyes:......my gold/$ trades have dried up (although yesterdays buy from $1207 is still looking relatively ok)

ok lets see what the european openings do and as always trade what you see, i'm not going to comment on the Cameron situation - markets will do what they want regardless of what we think they want !

If anyone is trading using my 20ma scalper I would love to see you post here as i will happily help you all to make it work for you

otherwise I cover it in great depth in my forthcoming 225,000 page (it feels like it to me :p) Corrie package (s/be availalble before end of may subject to some legal stuff i need to do now)

later :smart:

wrong thread I think, Neil!
 
more ridiculous moves this morning - amazing what the announcement of a coalition government can do; could've hit a century off cable if I'd managed to haul my **** out of bed earlier, which is something I can't remember doing since 2008 (hitting 100 on cable, not getting up early...)

Dunno who you are mate but no-one invited you onto my personal trading journal, so if you're bored, don't visit.
I post the link on NVP's thread at his invitation because this system is based partly on a correlator evolved from the FXCorrelator.
 
measley £1 a pip, 2 hours focus, £200 profit - the type of markets you dream about... and the type that never lasts long...
 
jesus, Mervyn King undoes in 5 minutes what Sterling took all morning to build!
 
Here's that €£ pattern again - rarely see it in any of the other major crosses; huge boost up then a steady re-assertion of reality that doesn't reverse

very tempting to sell £¥ here, but already selling £ vs. € & $ and ¥ is still below -100 on the 350

Right, Personal Moratorium on trading between 12.00 & 15.00 - lose too many pips right after lunch. Lunchtime notoriously unreliable, but 13.30 onwards seems increasingly like pure noise.
 
Terrible afternoon using standard system on $ pairs, but interesting that it doesn't trigger as many false calls on the Yen pairs, which have been similarly sideways. It also looks like variation B wouldn't have given half as many pips back, so it may be worth adopting that one.

Good system-testing conditions today - nice run-up this morning, followed by some horrible sideways markets. Made 260 pips on the first 3 trades, then proceeded to give most of it back under the standard system. The B variation held up much better, so I'm going with that from now on.

Two targets, one stoploss, one system exit, over 300 pips in the bag.
Made 260 on the first 3 trades yesterday only to give a big chunk of it back, so I'm going to give it a rest today rather than make the same mistake again.

More of an end-of-morning report really. Best result yet, in half the time.
Would have got some more off sterling this afternoon (thumbs with likely grey exits), but not off the Euro yen/$ crosses. Unusual late move in €£ too.

closed cable early as I'm not comfortable leaving it for my teabreak after its behaviour this morning
