Best Thread Correlation Trading - Basic Ideas and Strategies

Neil

Do you think that correlation can be used in short terms, because to me seems that correlation in the short term cannot be taken as an edge.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Nice.

How does it work?

Let me guess. You use the strength indicator on the right for divergence and on the chart on the right you enter when prices cross the 50 sma and exit when prices cross back the 7 sma ?

Just guessing. LOL

sounds like Mr Yeomans Offerings to me Mike ....I walk different paths ;)
 
hey Mike / all .....

Tom Yeomans was a pioneer in the early 2000's of strengthmeter based trading and I respect his work a lot .........

looks like he has taken more of a back seat now in his companies as he is semi-retired.... and they are adopting much more aggressive marketing and actually have also reduced their prices dramatically to get more business

I have no affiliations with them but they seem pretty solid to me and better than most out there in the Trading/ Training cosmos :eek:

anyway as regards what I do ...I gave an example recently that is now shown below in my signature area ...........

If anyone is interested have a look .......its free

heres that set-up / Indicator in todays 15m TF .......signalling a nice sell on USD from about 03.30 GMT this morning (the chart is -1 GMT)

you were'nt awake ?..shame on you all ...hahahaha :LOL:

hey all

big hit on the GBP this week ......and the Euro continues to slowly fall...

Dow has fallen with usual USD and Yen rises

people ask me :-

do Equities drive the YEN & USD moves....or do Currency moves drive the Equities ?

Easy - the Answer is Yes !! :p


NFP's today so be careful

hey all

I get a lot of questions from Newbies .....fine with me ;)

there are hundreds of Newbie guides out there to forex ....just dial in forex , training , beginners etc etc into google and put a year or so aside to read them !

personally I think babypips.com is pretty good to start with

heres something that hit me this week ....all broker sponsored.....its as good as anything else for reading and starting out

i'm not affiliated or supporting the company involved ...just showing its all out there if you ask

dont pay to much attention to the systems ....they are just showing a nice starter to get you into things ....(a bit like my 20ma system in the signature area below)

actually the ole 8/21 EMA is not a bad system and ive seen a lot worse ! .....
