Hucklekiwi Pip

After riding the strong wave up on EURUSD, my trailing stop has finally been hit. Awesome, awesome trade, as I was able to bank more than 600 pips!

And my trade is over! After hitting my first profit target, the bulls didn’t have enough mojo to push Cable higher. No matter! A win is a win and Huck is happy!

An upward EMA crossover, my 30-pip filter hit… Why that looks like a valid long signal to me!

Not again! While both Cyclopip and Happy Pip were able to catch some awesome moves last week, poor Huck here ends up with a loss. I seriously want to cry… I don’t want to lose anymore.

Oh my. Looks like my HLHB mechanical system caught a major whipsaw! Remember that signal last week? After EURUSD went my way for a couple of pips, the pair suddenly fell from the sky and stopped me out! Awww, shucks…

While I did get the direction right, my entry order was a bit too conservative. EUR/USD only made it down to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level before popping higher on account of better-than-expected non-farm payrolls.

An upward crossover, stochastics moving up, and the 30-pip filter hit… Why, that’s a valid HLHB signal there! Gimme those pips, come on now…

Frustration, frustration, frustration! After a decent USDCHF win, I follow it up with a mismanaged USDJPY trade. Although price did go my way initially, I did not adjust nor take profits…

Ohhhhhhh, is that a crossover I spot on the HLHB system? Oh, why yes it is!

Aww, geez! No signal from my HLHB mechanical system again this week. I guess that’s mostly because EURUSD has been ranging lately and there hasn’t been any one-directional move to trigger an EMA crossover.
