Yes that is correct.............. A chart eh?

OK then here you are :....... A 5 minute chart. EUR/USD

A 5 minute chart will not bring you many pips but it is fast. You get the idea.
A trailing stop is needed when the price action hits the middle band.

Yep, thats correct.

However, a second ordinary MACD could also tell you if you are "over the hill", ie the upper band price that you have listed could go higher still. (it is a very long candle). So an ordinary MACD could be used just to make sure you have reached approximately the highest point.

You could enter then. It is not necessary to hit the top but, obviously, the higher outside the BB you get, the more profit to you.

The danger is jumping in too early, without the use of an ordinary MACD. The price may walk the upper band leaving your entry way behind and then hitting your stop loss. So when the ordinary MACD has peaked you know that the walking has finished and you can enter safely.

Now at the middle band you set a trailing order to get as far past the middle band as you can.

My own charting program does trailing stops only on stop orders ie it does not work. So when it hits the middle band, I have to play it by ear.

Depending on how popular this thread becomes, I will post some charts.

Your 1 hour period is very long. It is going to take a long time for your profit to eventually appear. I would have thought 1\2 hour to be a maximum.

Hi.
The file I sent is not a picture. It is an zip file that contains an ex4 file which is an indicator for Metatrader 4. If you have Metatrader 4 you should save this file in your /experts/indicators folder and then restart your platform. You will then be able to see the indicator in your metatrader 4 platform under custom indicators. Attach that indicator to a chart and some arrows will appear. I was just wondering if those arrows are correct.
Best regards,
Optimu

Sorry I do not use Metatrader 4. I am using the GFT charting platform.

I may be wrong, but it sounds as if you are using another indicator altogether.

If so you may have posted on the wrong thread. It may be better for you to post your question to someone who uses MT4.

I can only answer questions here which directly relate to the system I have posted.

Default Sorry.

Sorry.
I didn't know you are not using MT4. I have posted in the wright topic. The file I sent is an indicator made by me that draws arrows based on your method. I was just curious if it was drawing the arrows correctly, but since you don't use metatrader then you can not tell. Anyway, just forget I have posted here.
Best regards,
Optimu
