The Automatic Order Stacker

Hi Tom,Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you like the backtesting course. Unfortunately, what I trade is constantly changing and and until I get a strategy that works REALLY well for me, I'm going to hold off on publishing any precise setups because I want what I publish to be proven with real money trading. I have published some guidelines on Zen Trading, The Monday Trade and others, so if you do a search on my site, you will be able to find them.The thing to remember is to think in terms of general concepts rather than exact setups. I was the same way...in the beginning I wanted to know the exact setup that someone was trading. After awhile however, I discovered that the concept of what they were trading was more important and I could find ways to make the strategy more suited to my personality.A good example is some of Rob's stuff. It does work and I was doing really well with it, but I couldn't handle the stress that was associated with some of the strategies. It did not fit my personality. But the only way to truly find that out is to backtest it, then demo trade it. If it is profitable in testing, then open a small live account and start trading real money.With regard to paying for setups, the truth is that you are going to have to spend a little money to get educated. It is just like any other kind of training, if you want to get good, you will have to learn from the best.However, I realize that Rob's course is a lot of Forints. Here are a couple of more affordable courses that you may like. I have them both and they have helped me a lot:http://www.tradingheroes.com/hector-trader-course-review http://www.tradingheroes.com/currency-trading-training-chris-lori-course-reviewHope your trading is going well!Hugh

Hi Tom,I forgot one more suggestion on a system to trade. This one is mostly free. Just sign up for his email list and check out his free videos. His course is really expensive, but luckily his free videos give out a ton of information on how he trades, you just have to read between the lines a little.

As of earlier this year, Josh is still doing Zen.

Hey Justin,I'm primarily using the pivot points right now, I don't trade Zen anymore. It was to much like work, I would rather set my entries and exits and let the market to it's thing.Funny you should mention the losing trades, I'm going through one of those periods right now. I have gone back to backtesting and am trying to work out the kinks.For me, I don't do so well when the risk isn't quantified at the beginning. I had a couple of similar issues with the pivots, it was working well for awhile, but I let a couple get away and it was bad.I think that is going to be the solution for me, put in a hard stop at the beginning, so I stick to it. I have also been playing with the stacking and in my opinion, it is much lower risk to spread the pyramids over a larger area then to have them concentrated in one area.So enter one lot, let it become profitable or take small loss. If it becomes profitable, enter another and lock in a small profit on the first. Repeat 3-5 times until the target is hit. It seems like that would be better than stacking all 5 lots next to the target.Still in testing, but we'll see. Thanks for the kind words. I'll shoot you an email and chat offline.Thanks, Hugh
