Parish Announcement: I am taking a couple of weeks off from trading over Easter. Recording of trades will resume on Monday 16th April.
Week 5
EUR/USD 15 minute (flat £10 per pip)
Note I work with additional filters:
Both MAs below trendline for a sell, or above for a buy
Some degree of separation between the MAs
Don’t trade off a large bar (think this is in the manual anyway) of around 20+ pips long
Don’t trade off a large move in either direction as you should never trade the end of move (new)
This seems to result in 1 trade per day. At the end of the trial I will summarise my entry times.

Usual caveats apply:
Trading ForEx is discretionary; I’ll see trades other people won’t and miss trades that they take. We all read the market differently; therefore your results will be different from mine. Further, I am experienced trader with over 4 years’ experience. Although I try my best not to colour my trials with this experience it is impossible to remove it completely.
