Simplest GBP/JPY System Ever

 

Pair: GBP/JPY (because of large daily range)

Start: 00 GMT

1. Place Buy Stop order 50 pips above market open with a 50 pip stop loss, and no take profit.

2. Place Sell Stop order 50 pips below market open with a 50 pip stop loss, and no take profit.

Close all orders at 2359 and repeat.

This is a profitable set-and-forget system. I have no figures and have only backtested for a few weeks.

Please backtest, or use EA for backtesting, and post results here.

GMT just as in the entry. thank you.

 

Why not a trailing stop, something like 50 or 75 pips? You would be able to cut your losses (with sometimes small gains) on rangning situations like in the pic (3 days in a row) and yet catch big moves like the one at the right?

What is the money managment that you use for this TS ?

I haven't tried this system yet. But I would follow Dreamliner's rules with the addition of a trailing stop (50-75 pips) to minimize losses during choppy markets.
