it is not importent to know why ...
it is not importent what you trade, better is to know how you trade.

few month ago i traded only on time frames like 30 sec, 3 min, 5 min

i searched a correlation and found this between the averages ...

now i trade only range sometimes i look at pointo/renko (i like the noise filters) ... the frames i trade are differently like fibonacci 5 range 8 range 13 range 21 range 34 range and 55 range. you must look for the best price action settings for your style ... at the time i look in 3 frames 8 21 55 ...

i look on all chancels, but i know higher is better ...

you will pick 10 points/ticks you can earn on each channel with different signals.
i wait for nt 7 multi time frame ...

look at the mirror and you will find the solution. never copy a system. it will run for a week, month ... build your own system ...

no hope no fear ... this what i learned ...

i will say price action is the holy bullshit grail ...

it gives a effect ... the domino or butterfly effect. a small trend runs into a bigger trend.

look for this ... and you know

From what I see the majority of times the stoch crosses 50 in the opposite direction of the step ma. The step ma then turns down 1 or 2 bars later.

My concern with taking these trades is that if the step ma doesn't turn down then it's a failed trade. It seems like it'd be better to wait for the step ma to turn down. But by then you might have missed 3-5 ticks.

Any ideas?

EDIT: After studying the charts posted here and my own, I think I misunderstood the approach. In Tzachi's examples the trades are only taken if the step is already the right color for the stoch crossover. This eliminates a lot of bad trades and leaves a lot of good ones. Am I on the right track?

sorry to be so slow but I'd like to figure out how this works. Thanks for your patience.


Cunparis, yes

I like to trade Euro cause it starts earlier than the energy & indexes (I'm in France). Could you share what you changed for the euro?

PS: I trade the EC futures, would that be the same settings?

here my settings

The double ma on my 11 range looks different. Can you verify the settings? What is HATEMA?

Thanks for posting some trades. I'm studying them now.

Thanks for this thread Tzachi...I'm really learning a lot from it. I know I could have just pushed the "Thanks" button, but that just didn't seem adequate for what you've contributed. You da man!
