Also, this version makes use of an adjusted stop loss size on both USD/JPY and GBP/JPY.

The size of the stop loss was adjusted from the original 20% of the first candlestick to 40% of its length.

USD/JPY had two valid inside bar signals for the week. The first one took a while to have its entry triggered, but it managed to catch a nice 19-pip gain.
