hi geoff

i tend not to use smartlive for currency pivots as they are off more than most service providers if you use the autopivot indicators that i use on the site (its been posted many times) and download UWC DEMO account i find the autopivot indicator works very well with there time periods and is rarely off livecharts levels (except for r3 which we do not use from livcharts as they calculate this differently to us)

Thanks again, I was already using that version, so put on the pivot tool & as you say the levels are practically spot on.
BTW, are you trading everything s normal it being NFP day? Cheers, Geoff

yes Geoff that UWC demo account seems to be the best i have seen for the pivots and i have used alot of accounts (but you can get complacent so just double check before taking a trade)

i am trading as normal but extra careful, to be honest its best not even to trade today alot people dont trade it just because its to much like a casino, but we will see how it goes, i certainly wont be trading anywhere near the figures times
 
morning, lines are drawn watching the market nothing going on at the moment again gold pivots a little out so will pass on it again today

Top of the morn Patrick, I'm going over to livecharts and look around. I'll just set up a PIN BAR profile in the mt4 today. Thanks Jeff

ah morning Jeff, your a mad man getting up a this hour to trade this system, i really hope you make some money from it, if not get back into bed and trade the system in US market times might be better for your health :cheesy:

but good to see you here mate(y)
 
Hi pocrel thanks for the response. I was thinking of demo trading this system but using support and resistance levels mostly. This will be my first ever attempt at trading and I was concerned there would not be enough trades to make it worthwhile. Have you found there are enough signals to make a living from this system and are you trading from a live account? Please forgive me if I am being too intrusive![/QUOT


Its a good idea to demo first but the sooner you get onto real money the better i think as you will not have the same emotions when real money is on the line (even if it s 50p per point)

on 30min time frame there is plenty of trades, perhaps you need to start at a slower time frame perhaps 4hr so you can digest the market and whats happening and then if you think you need something quicker move down but only when you know what your doing

i trade a real money account and i make decent enough money from it but i also work so not as much pressure on me

good luck with your first trade whatever it is(y)

Hi Pocrel, I nearly took a Brent trade on 8.30 bar earlier but it looked a bit more like a doji. Wouldn't have then done WTI too, but wondered what you thought of the bar. (Crossed DP at 115.08).

to me thats a doji also so i would not have taken that bar

Thanks pocrel. I know what you mean about emotions. I know you are uk based... Do you spread bet this system? I was considering spread betting with smart live markets as they have mt4 platform and allow 10p per point.

EDIT just noticed your charts are smart live spread bet! Good broker in your experience?
