<![CDATA[Forex Software — Picking Currency Pairs to trade]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/5863/picking-currency-pairs-to-trade/ Sat, 12 Mar 2016 01:42:06 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Picking Currency Pairs to trade]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/post/34639/#p34639 It´s better to sort by % instead of pips, since pips for example for EURNOK are huge, but % is not, simply for the reason of the price EURNOK has in general. XAGUSD for example has a tiny pips range, yet one of the largest % change. So you really want to look for % instead of pips when determining the most volatile pairs.

So what's the criteria for picking which pair? Do you look at the Pips, $ or % for your selection?

It would be good to incorporate volatility into our EA, so that we don't have to keep referring to this website, checking when is the right time to enter.  You may want to consider using Price Volume Indicator for such function.  Some of my EA utilize this Price Volume Indicator.  It gives rather good results too.  And also help to eliminate side way trending or prevent entries during lull periods.

Other indicators to consider, with similar concept is the CCI Buy/Sell Zones Indicator (also gives good results) and the Sonic Indicators (e.g. enters when there is a Bullish Bar with rising Volume).  All these above indicators are in FSB's Online Repository, under "Indicator".  Users can either download directly using FSB, click "Repository" tab and under the "Indicator" tab, choose which indicators to down load. Or download using FSB website.  I prefer using FSB software directly.

I use that page and a couple others all the time to pick pairs.

I trade the longer time frames and sometimes some humungous profits

easy work. lol
