    I need simple trend following system that will play for real automatically.

    Will trade AUDJPY. MA crossover, where I nominate parameters should do.

    To avoid these liquidity stealers - HFT - need FX broker that provides spread. Signals off 15 min bars or longer and maybe I will throw in randomiser so exact timing of action cant be predicted by computers.

    What is the simplest way to do that these days?

    Depends. Do you need to become consistently profitable?

    Simples, How about 150 of us give him systems that no way in hell did they ever work and he can toil to try to make them work? Then he will have 150 ways to be simplest of what doesn't work. I will start, take a coin and flip it, Today only, Heads ES will do down, Tails it will go down and on the side it will go up but can only flip the coin during a hurricane winds standing on one foot singing Tequila.

     
  5. It's clear you did not steal your name. :D

    Should be simple, toolazy is too lazy to think. But at least he is honest. :confused:

    I have a trade idea that could work.

    Requirements: 1 nagging wife

    On days you feel wife nags you, sell the next day.
    On days you feel wife supports you, buy the next day.
    On bland days, hold.

    This could work if you don't have too supportive wife!

    You would have been better off if you just asked everyone for their account numbers or even opened one of those Fund Me accounts. Honestly, did you really expect people to tell you in 2 min online what it took them years and thousands of hours, and losing hair, and tens of thousands of dollars in tuition to the market to figure out? Ridiculous.....

  8. Everyone is being very rude. As far as I can tell the OP is looking for advice on which platform to use, not which strategy.
