To Bill Clinton :
Thank you so much for your very kind compliments.
It is refreshing to see a face on the avatar as both you and Dale Paterson have done. I will be doing the same when I reach Honorary FX member status, but I have some distance to go yet!
Welcome to this candlesticks thread. I believe candlesticks are the best way to trade. They are the simplest method and do not suffer the lag that is involved in indicator trading - indeed their immediacy of presence is awesome.
Your settings are all correct but I would recommend a few modifications :
The GFT program has the Di Napoli MACD in its indicator selection. Use that one in place of the standard MACD. It operates a little faster.
Then set your Keltner channel to period 4 rather than 5. This brings it closer to the settings of the Starc bands, which you may also like to include in the 5minute charts.
Colour your Bollinger bands Blue or dark grey and set them as very thick lines.
Colour your Keltner bands (all three) in orange. (moderate thick lines)
Colour your Starc bands (all three) in dark green. (moderate thick lines)
This will help you distinguish between these lines more clearly.
I hope the material here is of benefit to you.
All the best of trading to you.
