Trading Plan: Where to expect a reversal
Saturday, October 24, 2009
Trading Plan: Which data feed provider to choose
When comparing the different data feed provider I have to say GAIN CAPITAL (forex.com) provides the best forex data, all others (PFG Futures and Forex feeds as well as the popular ZENFIRE feed for Ninjatrader) simply dont generate charts that provide so clear signals with the MTPredictor Indicator.
4 Signals on the first screenshot (GAIN) and only 2 valid signals with even higher risk on the other screenshots that are from the other providers.

Trading Plan: Which setups can be skipped
Its important to not trade every setup, as long trades work most likely in oversold conditions (price near low of yesterday) or on trends (higher highs and lows). This ways going long euro and gold in the above charts is considered a risky trade. The only way to take these is waiting for a trend line to break.
In general there should be a clear base before entering a long trade, very seldom (mostly on news) it happens that there are spikes visible on those its valid to enter even if no base has been formed yet. However you have to rely on the concept that an uptrend requires a double bottom so the all market participants know price does not go lower.
Short setups in a trading range especially when the entry is at Point A of an upmove (see NZDUSD chart)
Trading Plan Which Instrument to short
When the US dollar gained strength overnight, its clear to short one of the currencies in the morning. But which one? Looking at the different instruments the YEN already traded near the low of yesterday, the Aussie Dollar almost, Canadian Dollar and Euro. So only the pound which was the strongest currency for the last few days has the best risk reward ratio.
Looking at the Dollar Index (DX) makes it also very clear when to enter, as only on certain times the pullback on an uptrend allows shorting other currencies.
