			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Guys thank you so much for your replies! To answer:</p><p> - The time frame is 15M I forgot to add it;</p><p> - Yes there are also some other extra filters, however since it&#039;s designed for manual trading I&#039;m assuming some of them are virtually impossible to replicate, for example the shape of the &quot;trigger bar&quot; (&quot;pin&quot; or &quot;ice cream&quot; bar, that&#039;s his own terminology). I&#039;ll attach the detailed manual rules in the picture from my notes.</p><p> - Another condition is that the MAs sequence also needs to match the 1H time frame, also not possible to replicate I think..</p><p> - Anyway the strategy should grow the equity by 10-15% a month according to the statistics, so for sure it does not have an exceptional winning rate of 80-90%, however I would still like to test it, what do you guys think?</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum I’m writing from Italy! As kindly suggested by Petko I would like to see if anyone would be interested in automating a strategy that I’ve learned from a famous successful trader (don’t wanna exploit his name) who mostly trades manually. Anyway I’ve been wanting to automate it for some time; I tried with a program but was not a good one, and since I’m new to FSB and trading in general I would ideally like to see what you guys think from your experience and share the results in the community. I’m gonna drop it down here so you guys can tell me your opinion, it’s a nice and simple one. Thank you in advance! <img src="https://forexsb.com/forum/img/smilies/wink.png" width="15" height="15" alt="wink" /> Cheers, Marco</p><p>Up trend (long):<br /> - 6 EMA crossing 18 EMA upward<br /> - 6 EMA and 18 EMA are above 50 EMA<br /> - 50 EMA is above 200 SMA</p><p>Downtrend trend (short):<br /> - 6 EMA crossing 18 EMA downward<br /> - 6 EMA and 18 EMA are below 50 EMA<br /> - 50 EMA is below 200 SMA</p><p> - TP 10 pips (max 11-12 pips recommended)<br /> - SL 8 pips (max 10 pips recommended)<br /> - 1% risk recommended or less</p>]]></content>
