yes yes yes. I tossed it all out and SIMPLIFIED my approach to trading. That's the point of this journal now. Make more money with less effort. Let's see if I can be successful. Perhaps I should start a new journal to avoid confusion? My "edge," which i am not disclosing here, only adds to the profitability of the wind tunnel crossing. I can suggest something almost as good as my edge though... If you add a T3(triple exponential) crossing of the tunnel and only enter in the direction of the cross, you will be pleased with your results. Currently holding my EUR,AUD,CHF shorts. Hope the rest of you are too=)
