A pretty good week for the HLHB Trend-Catcher System, as it gained pips from both EUR/USD and GBP/USD. Here’s my forex update!

EUR/USD

EUR/USD popped up its most profitable signal near the start of the week before it dropped (and ranged) around the 1.1800 area. Luckily for the HLHB System, the 96-pip gain on signal #2 was enough to offset losses from fakeouts from the latter part of the week. Phew!
# | Signal | Open | Close | Pips | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Sell | 1.1907 | 1.1907 | 0 | There was no crossover |
2 | Sell | 1.1913 | 1.1817 | 96 | New crossover |
3 | Buy | 1.1817 | 1.1817 | 0 | RSI was already above 50 |
4 | Sell | 1.1784 | 1.1784 | 0 | RSI was already below 50 |
5 | Buy | 1.1801 | 1.1793 | -8 | New crossover |
6 | Sell | 1.1793 | 1.1793 | 0 | RSI was already below 50 |
7 | Buy | 1.1805 | 1.1788 | -17 | New crossover |
8 | Sell | 1.1788 | 1.1832 | -44 | New crossover |
9 | Sell | 1.1832 | 1.1843 | 11 | End-of-week trade |
TOTAL | 38 |
GBP/USD

Like in EUR/USD, GBP/USD also dropped significantly before ranging. Unlike in EUR/USD though, the HLHB System invalidated a potentially profitable signal. Instead, the system got its profits from signal #5. Not as good as signal #1’s potential profits, but a gain’s a gain, right?
# | Signal | Open | Close | Pips | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Sell | 1.5232 | 1.5232 | 0 | RSI as already below 50 |
2 | Sell | 1.5105 | 1.5105 | 0 | RSI was already below 50 |
3 | Buy | 1.5090 | 1.5081 | -9 | New crossover |
4 | Sell | 1.5081 | 1.5081 | 0 | There was no crossover |
5 | Buy | 1.5095 | 1.5165 | 70 | End-of-week trade |
TOTAL | 61 |
A pretty good start for the year, I think. Hopefully we see more trends this year. Who knows? Maybe the system’s performance could surpass its 2014 results!
