I want to say, " Thank you" to all of my loyal followers.

Since I am a Trader then I know exactly what is important. Low Latency, High Security and only hosting the MT4.

My goal is to produce the best signals and provide a situation for people who need a helping hand.

Currently, if you check the slippage tab, you will see that IC Markets has the low slippage.


It seems that at different times that the slippage is different

FINALLY ! ! ! This week has given me fits. I had Trade Triggers engage but they were not clear so I did not make the trades. I rather be safe.

But I just now got off a trade with a 200.00 profit.

The testing on the live account with AUDUSD using my modified Trade Triggers went great during London trading.

Just wanted to keep my subscribers in the loop.

Now relax and have an enjoyable weekend.

Best Regards

Hello ALL,

I would like to let everyone know my next action step that I am now taking concerning the Candle Light Signal.

Over the past several months I have been testing my Trade Triggers Modified against the AUDUSD pair. I have had outstanding results.

I am going to pull off 3000.00 USD from the Candle Light Signal and trade the AUDUSD live to test on a live account.

If all is good with the AUDUSD and I make sure there's no bugs, then I will add the AUDUSD Trade Triggers to the Candle Light Signal.

I wanted to keep everyone updated as to my actions and directions.

Best Regards

Once again I decided to sit out because my Trade Triggers were borderline and not as clear as I wanted. I would have had several profitable trades but there were three that missed. That means huge lost. I check a few other popular signals today just to see how they were doing and they had huge loses on their accounts. If my Trade Triggers are not clear then I will not enter the market. I much rather not make any money than to lose money.

FYI, I have been considering AUDUSD for some time now. This pair is a little removed from the Eur and Chf but nonetheless all currencies affect each other at least indirectly. However, I am getting extremely clear Trade Triggers with this pair and the results and Trade Triggers are performing quite well.

As I say often, " a good trader knows when to trade and when NOT to trade".

Best Regards

After all of the excitement last week with the EURUSD, I firmly decided NOT to be in the mix. Situations such as this seems to carry unpredictable volatility for a few days. First the shock for the News Release, then the reactive trading then a recovery period with the price slowly returning to an equilibrium. I believe this beginning session (1/25) has shown that the EURUSD is on its way to recovery price equilibrium.

As I have said in the past, " A good trader know when to trade and when NOT to trade". This was one of those times that it was safest to sit out. I am glad that I did.

I am anticipating trading in the next day or two. Then business will be back to usual.

I wanted to give everyone an update and an idea what was going on.

Best Regards

Added topic Who is sitting out ECB ? ? ?
In just a few short hours, ECB Interest Rate Decision will be released.  I am wondering who is going to be sitting on the side lines and who is going to be trading.  I had already decided to just wait it out but when I got a message from my

Just to keep everyone in the loop. Tomorrow ECB Interest Rate Decision will be released. The times to watch is ( 1:30 PM GMT) and ( 12:45 PM GMT)

I will not be trading on Thursday because of the huge swings that could happen. I rather be safe than to be blown out of the market. I normally love the swings which gives be great Trade Triggers but in this case its too frightening.

Normally it would be a great day to be in a beautiful sale boat with high winds and sunshine, but tomorrow maybe be like a hurricane.

Be Safe

I am at 190 successful trades (except for 35.00 loses on Thursday cause of slippage. ) I brought in 1100.00 USD just now on 9 trades. So Candle Light is still going strong. That puts me at 607%

Hey guys, My triggers only found two trades during trading. London is about to close now so I really dont expect anything exciting to happen with New York during. BTW..... the two trades that I lost on last Thursday for about 35.00 each was due to slippage. As everyone knows, it was a pretty bad day that day. In any case I still count that I have 180 straight winning trades. My signal is still fully intact.

I wanted to wait out the first day of trading after the weekend. You just never know what will happen on an open after a week like we had last week with CHF. So far I am encouraged and expect some trading later tonight (my time)

I would think by now everyone has seen what is going on with the Franc. Several large brokerages closed due to insolvency. Part of trading is knowing when to enter and exit a trade. Just as important is knowing when NOT to trade.

I wanted my subscribers to know, that I suspended my trading Friday and I also will not resume until Monday. What took place with the Franc has not ever happened to this degree. Therefore, I will proceed with caution. I much rather be cautious than to take a hit.

Good day David, I read that SCB (Swiss Central Bank) has spent 2-300 billion on buying EUR to lock EUR/CHF at 1.2 in last 3 years. MAYBE next Thursday ECB (Europe Central Bank) may start QE, which aims to further sacrifice EUR to save Europe economics. Some say SCB let it go might mean QE is likely to launch. Is the Greece election in next week too? I wonder how EUR/USD will react to these two major events. BTW, congratulations to your success last week.

I had just under a 3000.00 night in trading or day depending where in the world you might be. YEP its alive!

Looks like a few others had a good trading too. Hang in there guys.

Guess what? My first two losing trades, both for about 36.00 each. But I am protesting with the liquidity providers since my TP was set and they were filled at a lost. After this.... I might be at 100 percent again. So far I am about 800.00 USD on Candle Light

It was a quite day today as too trading. I am sorry to say that I just did not get any Trade Triggers. EURUSD slowly fell off. Let me say that my Trade Triggers are 100 % so far. I wait for the right one. If I want to make more money I add to my lot size not to more triggers that might not work as well. Patience is key.

Candle Light ( https://www.mql5.com/en/signals/69013 ) has NO losing trades. I believe that my success is partly due in fact that I trade at zero spreads. My broker is http://icmarkets.com/?camp=3035

Good Trading everyone!!

David - what is the "trick" for getting an account with your recommended broker, "IC Markets", since we cannot get past Step 1 of completing their registration - they are quick to point out: "Residents of USA not allowed"??
David Stanton
David Stanton 2015.01.15
Sadly there is no trick. The US government is the cause of that. I had my account two years ago so I got in under the wire. If you will hold on I will provide another ECN broker that is US friendly. Sorry for the hassle.

My Trade Triggers activated two trades just now on the EURUSD for a total profit on Candle Light ( https://www.mql5.com/en/signals/69013 ) $ 144.00 USD after commissions. Let me encourage all of you once again to use a STP ECN Broker with zero spreads. IT WILL PUT THE ODDS IN YOUR FAVOR. Check out my broker. http://icmarkets.com/?camp=3035

Hoping everyone has a great day of trading.

I hope all is good with the trading. Friday I got caught in a situation. THE most reliable BASE Trade Trigger activated and then the price went in the wrong direction. Following, 4 recovery trades activated too. I really do not like to hold over the weekend but this was my best Trade Trigger. When the market opened on Sunday evening my time, I hit an instant trade for about 85.00 Later another one for about 102.00 By 4 AM this morning all positions are closed out at a profit and NO loses.
Just an update on https://www.mql5.com/en/signals/69013

Hi David,

Your signal is definitely one of the most impressive. It is appreciated if you could tell me a few things.

1. Do you use an EA (robot) to do trading automatically? If yes, how often do we need to check the trading and making adjustments if required?

2. All your trades have T/P but not S/L. How does your EA decide to stop loss, or will do manually by yourself?

3. I saw you have opened 13 trades in one day--09/01/2015. So far there are 5 trades opened at the same time. This provides safety of 133 pips to a $10k account. Is it part of strategy or you may consider to increase the safety in the future?

Many thanks for your answers. All the best for trading. Aaron.

Well I am back trading finally. I am happy to report that my first three trades made 78.00, 132.00 and 132.00 net after commissions. That's a total so far today of 342.00

There might be another one or two trades sometime today but I really expect to see the trades pick up when Tokyo and London open.

If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a private message.

Best Regards

IT'S FINALLY TIME ! ! ! ! ! I am now back in the game. I have my computers running and waiting but in any case I am now ready to trade. Just to keep everyone in the loop, I have a new test account that is live using my adjusted formula so as to discover if I can use a broker with a greater spread such as 1.5 pips. If so, then I feel much better about this signal so that pretty much anyone could use it.

So watch the EurUsd and lets see where this takes us.

Best Regards

As I watch the opening of trading today and I see the gapping in the EurUsd I am glad that I decided to wait until tomorrow to re enter. The holidays really put an damper on things but by now we have all learned that you can not "make a trade", you have to wait for the trade. I am anticipating some good movements this coming week.

Best Regards

David
