EUR/USD
Another good week for EUR/USD! Aside from the RSI filtering a couple of fakeouts, the system printed a sell signal right before the pair dropped below its consolidation on the 1-hour chart. The 149-pip trade from signal #7 was more than enough to offset the 13-pip loss from the 3rd signal.

GBP/USD
Like in EUR/USD, the HLHB System was able to dodge some fakeouts with the RSI filter. Unfortunately, it also posted a BUY signal just before Cable dropped, a similar move that we saw in EUR/USD. It resulted to a 67-pip loss that pulled the net results to -56 pips. Drat!
