Pipsters,
I'm back from a small visit to Rome and the Vatican. A nice long weekend. Shame about the value of Sterling versus Euro, but hope you happy campers have been making pips. Beer in Rome costs about as much as having my car serviced in the UK. So I took to stealing from the local wino's and making off with the goods. If you can buy it or blag it, do a runner with it.
Back to it this morning for the first time since last Thursday. If only I'd let my Swissire trade run...I had been able to buy vino for my friends in Rome! Only took two trades today. Something gentle to ease me back in Dax short twice for +20 and +17 pips - Total +37. Was dashing back and forth to play pool with my lads home from school and just teaching them a thing or two about 'Le Hussle'. Called Gold and Cable moves for some friends. But alas they were not able to snaffle any pips. Always tomorrow in this game. You just have to be patient and wait for the set-ups.
To any residents of Rome - thank you for lending me your city for the weekend. Sorry to have brought so much rain with me. But for next time please ask the beer taverns if they can reduce the prices........I am so dehydrated I look like a dried apricot.
I don’t want to stray too much here from the strategy. But, to answer the question, here is what I did:
Note: It seems long winded, but you only need to do this once. It’s a simple chart too, so not much CPU usage.
1. Copied my C:\Program Files\MT4_ODL folder
2. Pasted and renamed it as C:\Program Files\MT4_FIBO
3. Unzipped and dropped this file Attachment 74808 into C:\Program Files\MT4_FIBO\config
4. Dropped this file Attachment 74807 into C:\Program Files\MT4_FIBO\templates
5. Dropped these 2 files Attachment 74806Attachment 74805 into C:\Program Files\MT4_FIBO\experts\indicators
6. Opened C:\Program Files\MT4_FIBO\terminal.exe
7. Closed all charts.
8. Opened a new chart (any pair)
9. Loaded template currency_strength_endy
10. Right click on chart, indicator list.
11. Double click !cci_dif, then inputs tab.
12. Change to whatever pair you want. Et Voilá!!!
THANKS BILL
thanks for doing that bill, all set up this side and its always there when we really need it
Well just after re-writing my Entry and Exit rules in my new journal, I saw the EURUSD M15 bouncing up off the 200ema so I thought a good time to go long again so I bought at 1.4310. The candle went to a doji - first red flag observed but didn't re-act on it. Next time I looked there is this huge red thing hanging down so got out at 1.4231, -79 pips later!
When I did my post mortem, I just couldn't believe it! Not one of my entry conditions were met and this just after re-writing the damn things! Not only that but the 20ema is holding the prices down to the 200ema!
So over to the mirror (again) and asked the idiot looking at me why I took the trade. All he could tell me was that he thought the 200ema was more powerful than anything else. I told him that from now on, no matter what he thinks, we are following our entry and exit rules as written - no exceptions. Reluctantly, he agreed.
I'll be glad when I can tame that guy in the mirror!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Strato,
Thanks for the post - Its a genuine reminder to us all, it does not matter how clever we think we are, there is a persona within us all that wants to do things differently and knows better. Constant vigilance; and perhaps a comedy beard so when you next time undertake Farmer Bobs famous KHT, you can at least look like an idiot when you look in the mirror. I have requested said item on my Christmas list.
Sorry, annoying myself now. Got them working. Last question. They have W and M pivots on there. I'd assume Weekly and Montly pivots. Do you guys not use Dailies at all?
I'm so used to working with IG these charts are really blowing my mind at the mo!!
I wish you all a very Happy Christmas and continued success with your trading next year.
Thank you Pimp for everything you have taught me over the last 8 months and the laughs and partying in the Boiler Room over the summer (the singing was definitely a bit dodgy though).
Thanks again and have a great Christmas.

I can no longer sleep. I feel like I'm having an affair with cable. Waking up and thinking about her at 4am each morning. Lovely curvy MAs and double bottoms. Looking forward to switching off over Christmas. Had a tremendous week last week, back on form. Must have been about 400 pips. Thanks again to la Pimp and all. Also Honest, TonyH and Rock for helping me over the last few weeks.
Keep an eye on cable. Every morning she offers up her goodness.
