in my own trading I do take the simple concepts of USD/Yen/ Dow alignment a lot further to give me my signals
Multiple TF's
Multiple Ma combinations
advanced Pattern recognition for all G8 (not just Yen & Usd)
and it can be literally a lot of hours between each signal on the 15m TF's ....to either be stopped out at b/e hopefully ...or to bag a move ....possibly up to 15-20 pips max if I am lucky
thats getting real with trading ......
