todd,
Yes wma5 is Linear Weighted moving average commonly called wma.
CCI is Commodity Channel Index which tell us over bought and over sold conditions.

Hi All,
I placed trades in euroyen, euro, yen, aussie and a few in able.Most of the week was focussed on euroyen.Here is one chart showing my trades.
This shows only long trades taken in euroyen.The blue triangles show entry and other triangles show exit.The green lines show TP.

Hi, been following this thread but am still not sure about the signal strategy. I understand we place an entry on change of slope of 5wma but why then do we wait for a pullback to 21ema? Why not just exit on next change of slope? Also, as I understand it, if it repulses it then begins to continue in the original direction of the trade entry, so why exit then?

As one trader mentioned earlier it would be very helpful if we could see a chart with text pointing out the mechanics of the strategy. A detailed picture would be very helpful.

Appollogies if the above questions have already been addressed.
