If you get really stuck email me direct. The professionals use Keltner. Amateurs don't they also use too many indicators. You will in time find that about three is enough.

As one of the thouss of "amateurs" who trade home I like most people have been through the wringer like you the advice given by phil is sound the more studying you do the better.

my experience I have generally found keeping things simple to work for me.

I have one system I use that has "steadied the ship" as far as profit loss is concerned it may help you at least it will give you something to play with while waiting for your books etc.

I use a 60 min chart GBPUSD

50 EMA to show general direction we are heading.

My one only signal generator is a CCI 14 going through zero between 5am - 12 midday GMT

When this happens I put a trade on if you are the wrong side of the 50 EMA obviously it needs watching more carefully.

I also look at the double CCI (i.e CCI 28) if this crosses zero on the same cle it tends to show the start of the bigger moves.

Anyway I have attached an example of the past week or so as you can see not all signals work the out side of my timeframe are fly consistent as well.

If you pull up some charts scroll through the past few months you can see that you get all the big moves not too many false .

Obviously you need to define your money trade management depending on if you are happy leaving trades on overnight or prefer to have everything settled the same day.

Try some charts see what you think even if you can pull 20 pips each signal its a start in the right direction.

Also forgot to mention if the same signals are being given on the EURUSD the USDCHF it adds weight.

Personally I only trade the GBPUSD but monitor the others try to trade dollar moves not individual currency moves.

I have KC on 15 which is the default setting also Bollinger on default. Kagi si a great help if used with Dema KC. It gives good safe entry points such as today which was worth 160 pips.

Hi TrendlineBreak I use XTick too found interesting on your snapshot. Is that a custom indicator above CCI(14) windows ? How do you make it ? Thank you in advance

Hi Phil thanks for the info. But I'm using XTick its default sometime quite different with other chart tools. Can you specify the parameter for KC ? For BB I think the default is 20 - 2. Thank you again in advance
