Saki's Forex Reversal Journal

Thanks.

I want to start applying my system to the futures markets but I have to first get setup properly. I don't really have time this month, but maybe in the future. The data I have now for the futures markets is through a russian CFD dealer and their data is pretty rough.

perhaps someone could feed me 30 minute data for a few futures marktes? QM, ES YM ER? I could post a few trades in the future if it backtests well.

I actually posted the wrong limit for AUD/USD. I entered .7570 into my trade station but on my journal I was more ambitious.

Alot of whipsaws the last few days. I suspect we will clear out of this congestion real soon. Will be fun, and profitable, if it goes higher first. Have to remember that I trade a system, not the market. When prices dipped below my entry today I was second guessing why I didn't take profits yesterday, but it was obviously too soon as price came back and hit my limit orders.

Must remain committed to the probabilities of my system and accept the losses as they come.

My system is an attempt to catch substantial moves, not to have a steady stream of profits. Markets aren't steady and fluid, they are spasmodic and amorphous. I have to train my expectations to adhere to the market not the other way around.

Let's see...

Will add to positions on Sunday if adverse prices are seen. I'm gaming the market a bit here. In other words, I'm hesitating and being greedy at the same time.
 
switched up to metatrader 4 and was playing around with the tunnel and thought, why not use the bollinger fibo for targets? so now my tunnel is a channel and not a tunnel anymore.

this is the 4 hour euro with a 55 lwma
and a 55 and 89 factor wrapped around it. works like a support and resistance bands now. very nice...

see for yourself.

Are you enjoying MetaTrader 4? I have FXCM, but am not happy with the platform at all.

I was considering to switch to a broker that offers Metatrader 4 as their platform.
