    It's me again. Who had been posting what's real holy grail in Currency Market but eventually wind up getting quit searching for Holy Grail since it doesn't exist then moved bank into basic. I am now able to grab the tendency with moving averages. Personally, I use 100 sma 200 sma 50 EMA 200 EMA 800 EMA on H1 time and trade only GBPUSD which I feel comfortable with it. And how about you men trading with Moving Average?

    In my view, moving averages would be the best indi's to utilize in Foreign Exchange trading. There are lots of indi's that include all the MT4 platform and there are others that a few clever guys have realised actually function to some traders benefit - that one can download free. Why some traders want to trade without anything, completely blind, is a mystery to me!

    I utilize certain essential EMA's to confirm trend direction and are vital to bounce effective off trades. The proper EMA's and also the appropriate combinations would be the key. What so many small traders simply don't know is how they really clearly represent dynamic (diagonal) falling/rising resistance/support levels.

    Look at the two AUDUSD 1 hour charts below. The very first one is empty of indi's and goodness knows how anybody believes they can trade it!! The second one comprises the MA's, (along with a few other horizontal levels) that I utilize that clearly shows where price action bounced off the falling dynamic resistance places. These confluence areas represent an ideal point to start a trade (white arrows)

    Another very interesting thing that I'd love to share is the fact that it is really vital to trade during the week to the best trading times. What I have discovered is that one may spend Monday on Wednesday simply watching the trend/s develop. If one only trades just on Thursdays and Fridays one can not just avoid losing on a lot of impossible trades but acquire enough pips on those 2 times for the whole week. Sounds incredible - but just try it - you'll see.

    Everyone to their own!

    Personally I can not rely on MA's anymore. But that is me and my kind of trading and I exchange successfully out of my system.

    Others like yourself rely upon the MA's to enter and exit trades.

    It all comes down to what you feels more comfy with.

    Below is a typical chart of mine and the way it looks.

    Clean and simple.

    I enter and exit trades off SR with PA..

    I discover the 21 EMA frequently works accurately as floating support/resistance.
    I would never just rely on the EMA, however I still find it incredibly helpful for making conclusions.
    Look at latest PA with EURUSD H1

    The EMA 20 works for me as a stand alone indior. Marks dynamic support and resistance levels quite clearly and so is popular with institutional traders hence quite dependable IMO

    Agree with Danny. I utilize both 20 200 EMA

    For me personally I use the multi-time-frame approach.
    It is 24LWMA ON H8 to demone trend direction, for MT4 there is no H8 so to curve-fit which you multiply H4 by 2 which provides 24*2=48 at H4
    So having a mtf MA indior I visit my H8 trend on all time frames (from H4 to M1).
    Subsequently on D1 to MN1 it's still 24LWMA.
    After this 14LWMA on H1 into M1

    The real used Parameters are not what it's about - it's about establishing and testing a methodology how you can get these values.

    For instance, in the event that you always get good trading results should you take the parameters which worked best for the last 12 weeks - great!
    Should you get much better live-trading-results if you take the parameters which worked best for the last 6 weeks - take this approach.

    Optimise this optimization window and find the very best trade window (before you re-optimise your parameters) which ought to be nice

    Tough, there might be manual traders who would prefer learning by doing. Therefore, in case you would like to follow this road, my egy might not be what you are seeking.

    I am afraid that the truth is guys that you have to have the right indi's on your chart. Why? Well because you can then ascertain trend strength, management and most importantly a point where to input a winning transaction. It's just guesswork.

    I've attached GBPAUD chart from today. Very simple to see that it is buy trades only by distance involving our vegas tunnel and the 28/12 ema's. A commerce placed at rising dynamic support (arrowed) took 2 hours to scale 40 pips whereas a market commerce took 6 hours (6 candles) to fall the identical distance - sweaty occasions!
