Every values are calculating automatically. You don't need to do anything - ony put NewsTrader on the chart! Trailing stop will protect the profit, and stop will protect from big losing.

I think the system must have som problems:

1. Just before big news we almost always see some stop hunting.

2. We also often see whip-saws.

3. You can enter orders by hand before the news - and you can trail the move with a mental stop: So why do you need to buy a system and change broker?

4. You can use options (spread) instead. (Read the postings from jasperforex about this method).

I'd rather trade it myself, like today. Months work in two trading days for me isn't bad at all. What's a couple of hours.

Thank you for this thread. Can you PM with your broker's name. Since I am trading similar strategy on the news, and Money Tec policy will not allow you to put your broker's name on the general forum.

One suggestion for the S/L guarantees. If you have 2 different account for trading the news. You can put their S/L to their margin call.

An Example clarifying this

1- 2 A/C's each for 500.
2- GBPUSD is 1.8800 before the news by 15 minutes.
3- Buy 4 lots on the 1st account on market price (1.8800) with S/L 20 pips (1.8780), T/P @ open. Before the news release by 30 seconds.
4- Sell 4 lots on the 2nd account on market price (1.8800) with S/L 20 pips (1.8820), T/P @ open. Before the news release by 30 seconds.
5- Let the S/L trilling protect you profits. And do not be greedy in closing the +ve position.
6- When the release came out one account will be closed on margin call .
7- The other account will be in a very good profit area .
8- I Think this is will be the end for the S/L guarantees problem with the brokerage houses.

Cheers

It seems to be a little bit complicated?
