As an aside, take a 4 hour chart and attach only one moving average, a 7 sma displaced by adjusting the shift to 5 on setup. Just that ma and the candlesticks and consider uptrend when candlesticks close above the 7sma and downtrend when they close below. You will find this uncannily accurate in locating the longer term trend and using the 15 minute crossover per your system for the trades. Check it out.

Thanks for posting your system. It is similar to what I have been doing for the last 3 years in the commodities market with success. I noticed on your videos and trading plan the location of your stop and target. How do you account for the spread? Do you add the spread to the stop so that price has to reach the same level or just above? Same with the target? Thanks and happy surfing.

Flmarc- Thanks for the input. Thats what this blog is all about. Tweaking and making it your own. I believe you've done just that!

benl- My chart shows bid prices so whatever the price is on the chart, I add the spread onto it. So if my chart says I need a stop at 9500 and I'm going short, I'll actually put my stop at 9505. I hope that makes sense. Happy trading!
