Not as good as the previous week, but not so bad either! Here’s what happened to the system’s forex trades on EUR/USD and GBP/USD.

EUR/USD
Fakeout galore! Thanks to EUR/USD’s tight ranging conditions, only 1 out of 11 signals got validated last week.
Luckily for the system, it also turned out to be a winner. Signal #10 would’ve yielded more pips than signal #8, but it got invalidated by the RSI filter. At least the filter did its job this time!
| # | Signal | Open | Close | Pips | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sell | 1.0791 | 1.0791 | 0 | There was no crossover |
| 2 | Buy | 1.0864 | 1.0864 | 0 | RSI was already above 50 |
| 3 | Sell | 1.0906 | 1.0906 | 0 | There was no crossover |

| 10 | Sell | 1.0960 | 1.0960 | 0 | RSI was already below 50 |
| 11 | Buy | 1.0877 | 1.0877 | 0 | There was no crossover |
| TOTAL | 21 |
GBP/USD
Unlike in EUR/USD, there were more valid signals on GBP/USD’s chart last week. Too bad that most of them turned out to be fakeouts though! Only signal #5 yielded solid results, enough to at least offset losses from signals #1, #3, and #7. By the end of the week, the system is down 13 pips on the pair. Not too bad, I think.

Hoping for trendy, end-of-month volatility this week! 🙂
