I see you've now edited to August lol. August was a pig of a month resulting in a loss of just over 11% - still not sure where you get the 2300 from. However, overall since trading live from mid November 2009 the results have been.... Nov 09 +3.23% ...

No, I made a profit in September as explained in my post at the end of that month - you will have to explain how you get these figures because it's not by trading my methods lol.

OK, method 1 doesn't employ stop losses - the MA's are effectively the mental stop losses. Yes, Oct 1st I entered at 1.36317 twice so there is still a possibility the MA's will be crossed before they reach that price. However, remember I've already ...

Yes I have backtested this manually with add-ons back to 1999. However, what I would say is that even backtesting on the daily is not 100% accurate.... As you will know the ma's do move a few pips each day depending on price movement so you can ...

Hi there
Steviet's Live Trades!OK, hopefully this will clarify things... Kind Regards Steve
I'd have kept the first add-on and opened a new short limit order as well. Yes, primary trade would've been closed and a short opened immediately. Remember I also use ...

What I do is close the previous months positions (they were long from 1.28776) at month end which I did at 1.36292 and 1.36285. As price was still above daily 50sma & ema, 2 new positions were immediately opened at 1.36317. The 'add-on' position was ...

LOL Jay, We'll see - it's just now that I only trade daily exclusively, things can get a bit boring around here, not that boring is bad, it's very profitable in fact

Hi P, I'm not sure if I was clear on position size when we chatted on here earlier in the year but essentially not a lot has changed. From November until April I was only using 50sma but from May have also used 50ema too and opened 2 new positions ...
