Pretty sweet eh? If you want to try the system out for yourself, just check out my previous post about it. The HLHB Trend-Catcher 3.0 is basically the Amazing Crossover System with tweaked risk management rules!
I must say, I am liking the system very much. EUR/USD basically ranged the entire week, yet it still came out with a respectable 30 pips. While that may not be as big as its gains in the previous weeks, it's nothing to scoff at, especially since the market was very fickle this week!
Let's see if it can extend its winning streak!
EUR/USD Short
Yesterday I presented two trade ideas and I decided to go with the range play on EUR/USD. I didn't wait for the pair to test the top of hte range at 1.3200 and just pulled the trigger as soon as a strong bearish candle materialized.
Having set my stop at 1.3320, I am now aiming for the bottom of the range at 1.3030. I might close my trade early though. With today being an NFP Friday, I'm not really confident that I'll be able to handle all the volatility.
Overall, I had a relatively good week. I hope things just get better from here. Have a great weekend guys!
XOXO,
Huck

Thanks. I am forward-testing this system, so its only on demo unlike my discretionary system which I trade live. I look back every week and record it on paper whether it is up, or down, and by how much.
For my discretionary system, I set orders. I don't trade using EAs.
