Morning Paul,

The details havent exactly changed much, more adding of pairs and time frames to be honest. Now i watch/trade :

M1

EU : NO change
GU : Only trade arrows if all other flow chart rules are met. At the moment i am using the same criteria as for EU


M5

AJ AU EJ EU GU Kiwi UCad Swissy UJ

Only trade arrows (dots switched off). Flow chart rules again changing time frame questions to m15



H1

same as m5 with EG, GBCHF added and flow chart questions changed to h4


Below is the trade management doc with the way i move the SL for the 3 time frames. This is still a work in progress especially on m5 and h1.

hope this helps

Hey Grant

Do you filter by the purple line on M5?
Do you have a max AIMS box size?

Hi Paul,

trading arrows means purple is already filtered and at the moment 15-20 pips for Aims box size depending on how the set up looks and where i think we are in a wave sequence... Obviously the smaller the better...

hope this helps

Evening Folks,

apologies for the lateness but heres my last 2 days of trading

M1 :

1. EU -8
2. EU -3
3. GU +9
4. EU -2
5. EU +8
6. GU +15

Total +19 (1.46%)

M5 :

1. EJ +15
2. GU +5
3. Swissy -6

Total +14 (0.7%)

pdfs attached below.

With the arrows telling me the higher TF is in agreement for the potential set up i'm finding that i am bending the rule regarding the closeness of the aims level form the higher TF. I am keeping an eye on it and will make any tweak to that rule if needed..

cheers
