Thanks Cowaboi! Its nice to get positive feedback. I spend a lot of time writing posts for this thread and its nice to know that some people out there appreciate it (whether or not they like the method).

As a side note I just thought I would mention that I have switched MA values once again on all the charts. Not a big deal, and i'm sorry to keep doing this, but i'm now using a 61 EMA and a 78 EMA for trend bias. Keep in mind that the MA's are just a guideline and because of that, its really not that big of a change. The old MA's work just fine, I just wanted my charts to hold the trends a little bit longer so I wasn't getting flipped around as much. As with any setting, changing the MA's will cause you to miss some trades the other settings would catch, but catch an entirely different set of trades with the new settings. The point is, that over 100 trades, it will probably work out to be about the same.

Remember, respect the chart pattern FIRST AND FOREMOST and you will be just fine!

Cheers Folks!
