Could not trade Thursday, had a housefull of visitors (may have to become a recluse)
Found no setups on friday, see what today brings.

Like the new version 5 no alerts towards the purple line, great.

John,
Need a few tips, how do you get the arrows on your charts and how do you change the colour of the text box - I'm new to MT4, many thanks.

HI John,

when you have your account history displayed in your terminal window click and drag a trade and the arrows should appear on your chart...

As for the text box i'm not sure waht you mean... lol

cheers

Hi John,

took that trade myself with the exact same entry by the looks of it.

Unfortunately the loss of momentum on AO got me out for a few pips, Well done for holding on and taking a decent profit.

keep it up

Hi, took this short today, was close to the 5 minute Aims Box low so I placed my PO 1 pip below it. It nearly reached my 10 pip target and then retraced. My stop loss by then was 1 pip below BE. (Don't want to give it all back).

Last 6 trades only 2 loosers
