I use the strategy as defined using MA's and cci's and looking for crosses on the CCi's. As I use gft platform for charts, I have had to adapt stuff. I has been a real hassle. So my recommendation would be get the template in to MT4 and do as is. It helps Le Pimp with questions etc.

Good luck with the trading and do stick around. Its been such fun and you will learn heaps, and make pips.

Enjoy

For some stuff I trade only 5m chart e.g. crude. But it provides me with entry signal. You gotta have an appreciation of the longer term for the trend. Remember the trend is your friend - so unless you can see an hourly and 4 hourly set-up, it can be a challenge just to trade 5m chart. Don't get me wrong you can do it, but the real pips come from understanding the longer term trends versus the 5 minute moment.

Stick with the strategy and make sure you have all the charts set-up.

Good hunting

Wow, Rockdrive, what a tribute to the guys!
History is pretty much repeating itself here. I started out trading only this year. I was losing real money before coming across El Pimpo and Mr. Dan the very same way just last June. Over the last few months I've gone from losing lots and lots of pips a week to about break even. My target is now a nice little +25 per day then onwards and upwards.

I have to say, Mr. Pimp was sooooooo helpful with information. (the words "bled him dry" of info come to mind). Despite all my questions, requests and so on, he has always been courteous and polite always willing to help. Over the last few weeks he has been very caught up and I think stressed with the move and the new chat. So, I have backed off (well, just a little...lol)

But, then into my life appears the one and only Mr. Rockie the Rock Rockdrive who has taken me under his wing. You already are contributing, Rockdrive.


So, now I have 3 mentors. These are exciting times ahead.
Very soon it shall me my turn to help spread the wealth.

Hey, Robert,

I'm in Ireland, so, I'm on London time. We haven't seen Vampire in a while but he's a regular and lives in San Diego (thus the name). Believe me, do this for 6-12 months and you'll only need to do it once a week after that. In fact not need, but choose.

This morning - with headache after too much Pimp Sangria and beer! Not much going on.....Directionless and no price action. All the traders staying in bed until the NFP comes out.....or they have just gone home for an early weekend.

Bored Rockie

p.s. thanks Bill - humbling words. with thanks

Here's a nice little one. Waited 4 hours for some direction, then I couldn't get into gft to take crude up to 1hr20ma. It appears gft were fixing a quote board problem I had been having today. An easy +60 missed.
I'd have been above my target for the day.

Now it was against the trend, but a pullback up was due.

Good trade this morning I took +85 pips out of that move.

how do you get the different CCI indicators to overlay on top of each other. Is it a special CCi indicator or not? If it is could you post it for us?

Thanks alot

Dave

Dave,

Just drag the CCI from the navigator window into the window you require it in.

How do you define a break?

Do you define it by a certain amount of pips beyond the 60 min 20 or something else?

When does support/resistance become a break?

Cheers
