Forex Signals 2nd Feb
I hope everyone is now getting familiar with the signals. Let me quickly recap anyways.
Signals are send every 4 hours starting from 5PM EST. If the Order says “Order Cancel Order” or “Pending”, it means that it is a new order ready to be placed. On the other hand if it says “Update” then it means that it is an old order which is either already triggered or waiting to be filled. OCO orders are created for both sides “Buy and Sell” and which ever triggers first cancels the other.
All trades are open with 3 lots with same Stop Loss but different Profit Targets. When we reach first Profit Target we move Stop Loss to half the original size. Then when it reaches second Profit Target, we move Stop Loss to Break Even. At times due to change in price action we may move Stop Loss to either lock in profits or minimize loss. In such cases I’ll tell you where to move your Stop Loss. In earlier scenario when Stop Loss is moved due to Profit Target being met is done in real time as it happens. In case of later scenario when we move Stop Loss due to change in Price Action, it is done at the end of 4 hour candle.
When I create new orders I consider 1-2 pips spread on GBPUSD & EURUSD and 3-4 pips on the rest. These are based on my ECN broker. If you happen to use a Market Maker broker the you may need to add extra pips due to larger spread on their platform.

Question: Is each signal 3 orders or 1 lot with same S/L but each has a different T/P. Or do you have 1 order and a broker that allows you to set different T/P targets for different parts of your order size? Make sense? I use IkonRoyal and don’t have OCO or lots of options around S/L and T/P. All or nothing if that makes sense. Thanks for your time.
Hi Slotorque,
It depends on your broker. Some brokers would let you open one large position and set different profit taking point. With other brokers you may have to open 3 different trades for each Profit Target.
Same for OCO. It again depends on your broker.
You are hedging or stradeling 4hr Bars?
@Rick, Yeah Straddle in a way…not hedging.
im still not recieving any emails about your signals!!!!
hi
am having difficulties.
for example your trade 7..i see that your trade is still moving.
whereas mine was alredi SL few hours back..
im using ikofx.
any idea how to tweak or adjust to be similar to yours?
read ur article on adding a few pips due to differences.
my question is the few pips u asked us to add.. where to add onto?? onto my own current quote(from iko) or just add on top of your tips quote?
reason because.. i had 2 tips from you id 2 and id 7 started and ended prematurely..
@richard, Not sure what is the real issue here. Can I ask you open up a Gmail account and then forward emails to your Hotmail account.
@Nikita, Not sure why you got closed out early. Though end result was same for everyone.
Regarding adding extra pips, can I ask you to use an example to explain how you are adding pips?
Hi Firepips,
I did a small analysis on the pairs.
Here is the summary:
CAD/JPY -499 +860 Total= +361 (14 trades)
EUR/JPY -360 +970 Total= +610 (16 trades)
EUR/USD -36 +1090 Total= +730 (12 trades)
GBP/JPY -1680 +1022 Total= -658 (22 trades)
GBP/USD -1230 +1100 Total= -130 (16 trades)
May be after a few months we can drop one or two pairs which are not performing well with this system (Just a suggestion).

Very useful service. But to follow the signals is not practical: Please try to record each trade at the separate page with exact entry/exit time as GMT with charts.
Hi Shahid,
Thanks for the analysis. I save it for future reference.
Hi Hasan,
I do realize the current limitation and happy to consider better ways to providing signals.
hi,the order:
Order ID: 3 | Update | $EURJPY Buy 125.50 | Currently at +70 Pips
is at 5pm est / 0000 GMT hr right? on that basis the EUR/JPY is trading at around 126.31 at this time
Where did u get 125.50??
Hi Shabba,
125.50 is the entry price for that order, and not the current price.
When I get the email update, I see lots of “|”.
Would it be possible to change one thing to make in easier to read. Like maybe perhaps.
Order ID: 3 > Update : $EURJPY Buy 125.50 | Currently at +70 Pips
Even if you don’t change it, it’s ok, I can always check this site.
Please ignore my previous post. It’s seem that the mail forwarding case the messup.
I started to watch closely your signals since last Tuesday. I think you provide awesome ”free” service, at least for the last week. Your signals tuned up my trading big time. I made +600 pips since I started following you on twitter. My concern is what I’m going to do if you r not around
..Keep it up Chief 
I use your service along with some others (which I pay for) as I am just starting out in forex, keep it the great service, I echo what amir said “what we going to do if you decide to call it a day?” thanks again
@Amir @David, Haha…I am not going anywhere, I live and breathe Forex. Just pray for my long life though
Ok this is bad, all my trade is losing… all negative le… haiz… bad luck, ever since i started placing 400 in my account, i never see it exceed that amount… haiz…
Hi Eric, You gotta have patience my friend. We trade on 4hr charts…it takes some time before we can reap profits.
Yeah thanks Firepips, if dun have you, i guess i’ve already lost the money… haha! Thanks! really appreciate you for posting all the info for us… Thanks!
