Manual trading the EUR/JPY using the system taught by the www.fx500club.com

I’m not trading the euro jpy much at the moment so I thought I would post these two trades I took this morning. The trading strategy works the same for every currency pair and all the commodities and indices …enjoy. euro yen trading for profits

One thing I have learned about trading is that you NEVER STOP LEARNING. I hate sitting around wasting time looking at charts all day, it’s also not so good for your profitability because if you have to search for trades then mistakes get made, best to get in and out quick, have a plan and trade that plan. Dan Armitage teaches us this in the www.fx500club.com Online Trading School.

So what have I learned that’s new? Well for me it has become more obvious that the Frankfurt Financial Market boys get in a little earlier than the London Financial Markets open and it seems the Frankfurt boys move the markets one way only to be reversed by the London Traders. I am seeing this more and more often. So today I had a little go at trading purely technical setups using the bunched moving averages strategy ( the fx500club, 123 setup ) . Have a look at the GBP JPY trade I took this morning before the London markets opened.

gbp-jpy-030709

I am liking these setups alot because they are generally very quick, taken off the 5 minute charts, the stop losses generally very small and the profit targets good eneough to make the reward risk very acceptable, more often that not 2 or 3 to 1, risk 15 pips to make 30 or 40. These type of trades happen fast so if they go against you you are generally out within a few candles.

This is just a variation on many of the trading strategies taught to us in the www.fx500club.com and www.fxmonkeyschool.com.

So for todays trade the first thing I wait for is the  5 minute 20 ema to cross the 5 minute 50 sma (the pale blue arrow is an alert I have setup), then I wait for the moving averages to become bunched up / close together. I then wait for the price to break through all the moving averages and begin to use them as support. Then it is just a question of using the cci indicators to get the best entry.

I entered the trade long at 157.17, my stoploss at 157.00 the previous low and old resistance became new support, my target was an old high 157.61, gj always moves quite aggressively so I try to lock in half profit at 20 or so pips and let the rest run to target.

The chart below shows how the price reversed once the London markets opened. Notice the pink downwards arrow is alerting me to the 20 ema ( exponential moving average ) crossing the 50 sma ( simple moving average ) Normally a good sign to take a short trade once the mas all bunch up again but not today as we have the weekley pivot ( wp) , directly below us.

gbp-jpy-030709-2

 This is just another way of trading old resistance becomes new support or vice versa for short trades, but using the moving averages as added confirmation of the price action.

See also my chart below, see how similar the AUD/JPY trade setup was this morning, I took this from my alert as well. There were alot more setups like this this morning and they all would have made nice safe profits and all before 7.30 am, not a bad days work, in at 6am finished by 7.30.

 Please note I apply alot of other strategies before taking these trades, long term trend direction, fibonacci levels and market correllation, all trading techniques I am learning in the live online trading school with the www.fx500club.com

I have posted the websites frequently asked questions so that you can see exactly how it works. Or checkout the website here.

  • What is our website?

    our website bridged the gap between valuable information in money markets and trade execution, by converting the advice of professional and talented traders globally to an executed trade rapidly and automatically in your account (from supported brokers)

    There was a time when trading was a headache. Not anymore! You don’t have to study or monitor the market to make a good pick, because hundreds of industry well-known experts from all over the world are doing it for you. All you have to do is pick the experts you like, and our website will quickly convert their advice into live trades in your trading account directly with the broker. And the best of all, it’s completely FREE!*

    our website receives rebates from the brokers, for the trades generated and splits them with the experts that provide the advice. Check the performance results recommended by our experts here

  • Who is placing the trades on my account? Do the experts know about my account?

    None of the experts that recommend trades will ever know your account’s existence. our website receives their recommendations, and checks the experts you have subscribed with in your account profile, and decides whether or not to autotrade their advice in your live account using a secure direct connection with the broker’s backend. our website’s patented engine places trades automatically with no human intervention. our website service is server based, in other words you don’t even need to have your computer on.

  • How do I get started?

    All you have to do is provide our website with the name and account number of the brokerage firm you’re trading with. Sign and fax the LOD required by your broker, to authorize our website to bridge the experts advice with your broker account.

    If it is the first time that you will trade online or you never had an on-line trading account with one of the brokers we support, then the first step is to open a new account. Click here to open one now in just 5 minutes.

  • Are the results hypothetical? There are a lot of websites that claim all kinds of results…

    Every signal received by our website is executed on at least one live / demo broker account. The results contain final spread, swap rates, and profit or loss from current open positions, hence all possible costs by the broker. The spread is the standard spread advertised by the broker you’re trading with. Hence our performance always reflects real market conditions. Due to the volatility of the markets, sometimes results may vary between accounts.All signals and trades executed on a demo account are considered to be hypothetical.

  • I already have an account with one of the dealing brokers you support. What is the next step?

    Click here and follow the wizard. When your broker notifies you that the change has been made, you will receive an email from us that you are ready to start using our website. This process will take a maximum of 2 days.

  • I already have an account with one of the dealing brokers you support. Why is our website telling me that I cannot use this account? Signing the RB form doesn’t work. Do I need to open a new account? What’s wrong?

    This is because when you opened this account, there was a party that acted as a Referring Broker (RB). Your dealing broker cannot remove that Referring Broker from your account and replace it with our website as the new one (legal issues). You need to open a new account and set our website as your Referring Broker. Click here to open a new account already setup for our website.

  • I do not want to open a new account, and I don’t want to sign any forms, even though there is not any cost involved with it. I prefer to use my existing account with the broker I’m trading with, without any changes. Is this possible?

    No. By signing the RB form, you enable our website to receive rebates from the broker or dealer you have an account with, and most importantly for our website to pay the signal providers that are generating the trades being executed in your account. So if you do not wish to sign the RB form with the existing account, the alternative is to open a new account with your broker by signing the same RB form for that new account.

  • Why do I need to type my username for the broker platform I’m trading with? Is there any danger for anybody to steal it?

    No, there is no danger. We will never ask you for your password. But even If your password was stolen, it is not possible for anyone (including our website) to withdraw funds from your account. This is because your broker, who always wires funds to the beneficiary of the account ONLY, is the one who had opened the account

  • To link your existing broker account with our revolutionary trading platform

    Please click here to fill in the signup form. We will then automatically send you your login details to begin autotrading with our platform. Accounts are usually activated within 3-5 days.

  • What is a pip?

    A pip is the minimum movement of a currency upwards or downwards. To calculate each pip for every currency, divide 1/ (currency pair exchange rate) Ex: 1/224.92 (GBP/JPY) = 0.00444 GBP. If you’re trading a 100:1 leverage account, then multiply this with 100. Ex 0.00444 x 1000 = 4.44 GBP. To transform this to USD just convert it. Ex: GBP/USD = 1.9377 x 4.444 = 8.6 USD / pip.

    Another example is to calculate a pip for GBP/USD. 1/1.9377 = 0.516 GBP. For a 100:1 standard account, multiply that with 10. Ex: 0.516 x 10 = 5.16. To convert in USD multiply with 1.9377. Ex: 5.16 x 1.9377 = 9.98 USD / pip.

    Without proper risk management, this high degree of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.

  • How long does it take to open a new account with my existing broker?

    It only takes 1 day. Most brokers – if you already had an account with them, do not require duplicate proof of records, and will provide you with a new account number. Don’t forget to tell them that your Referring Broker is our website. Click here to open a broker account already setup with our website.

  • What is the minimum deposit to open a new account?

    It depends on the broker, but we recommend that the amount for a standard account is $20,000 USD and for a mini account is $1,000 USD.

  • I don’t have a trading account with the brokers you support. Is that a problem?

    No. You can open a new account already set up with our website now by clicking here.

  • I tried to open an account, but I’m confused. Should I open a standard account, or a mini one?

    If you are trading more than $10,000 USD we recommend to open a standard account, otherwise a mini account.

  • Can I open my account in different base currency than USD?

    Yes. You can choose between USD, JPY, EUR, GBP and AUD.

  • I logged into my account. How many providers should I trade with?

    On the account settings page in the member’s login area, there is a wizard that corresponds to the lots traded by every provider and your equity. This wizard will display how many providers you should choose without having the risk of a margin call. Simply follow the wizard. Of course you can choose the signal providers manually if you wish.

  • What is a lot?

    A standard lot is a buy or sell size. If you buy 1 lot of EUR/USD, trading at 100:1 leverage then you buy 100,000 EUR/USD. But since you’re trading with 100:1, the leveraged value is 1,000 EUR/USD or 1 standard lot. If you trade a mini lot, then you buy 10,000 EUR/USD and the leveraged value is 10,000 EUR/USD or 1 mini lot.

    Without proper risk management, this high degree of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.

  • Can you add more signal providers?

    Send an email to and we will add them as soon as possible.

  • Can I trade manually? Or will it conflict with the our websites?

    Yes. Manual trades will not affect automatic trades.

  • I have opened a new account with my broker. How do I know everything is ok?

    Your broker will send you an email confirming that we are the Referring Broker, and that your account is ready. Then, you log in to our website and configure your trades.

  • Who are these signal providers? How did you pick them?

    We do not pick them. Any individual can become a our website signal provider. It is not possible on our website to misrepresent the performance of the signals generated. If our website shows a profit or loss, it is accurate, because details are confirmed by the dealing broker’s statements. For each pip stated in the performance section, there is a trade registered in the broker’s backoffice. The results are a combination of hypothetical and actual results.

  • What is ‘spread’ and why do all my trades start off with negative pips?

    The spread in the FX currency trading market, refers to the difference between the ‘bid’ price for the currency and the ‘ask’ price.
    Each traded currency pair opens with the spread. So if the spread is 5, then your trade will open at –5pips.

  • How do I control the number of lots, and the number of trades a signal provider trades with on my account?

    When logged into your account at our website, go to your account settings page. From there select the ‘max open lots’ drop down menu’, this allows you the set the number of total lots you wish a provider to have open at any one time, before he can open any more lots. Also, next to each provider’s name you have selected, there is a drop down selection called ‘lots’. This pertains to the number of lots to be traded on each individual trade. For example: if you wish each provider to trade with 2 lots per trade, but wish there to be no more than 2 trades open at a time. Then you would set max open lots to 4, and number of lots next to your providers name to 2.

  • How do you sign up to be a signal provider and/or an affiliate?

    To sign up to become a signal provider, on our homepage at our website, under our current list of top providers there is a selection that says ‘join our website as a signal provider’, please click on this and fill in the requested information.
    To become an a affiliate go to our homepage at our website, and the top of the page select ‘affiliates’ and fill in the requested information.

  • What do signal providers and affiliates do? And how do they receive commission?

    A signal provider places trades on his or her account, and all clients that have selected this provider in their account settings page receive these trades on their accounts, unless they do not have enough usable margin, or have their max open lots set to low. Signal providers provide signals for all clients who select them in their accounts settings page.
    Affiliates choose a designated URL (web page) to advertise our website and draw clients to use our revolutionary service.
    Signal providers get 0.5 pips for each traded lot of his or her own signals ONLY. So provider signs up, sends signals, and passively waits for clients to use their signals, trying to have good performance to attract them.
    An affiliate gets 0.4 pips for each traded lot of the clients that signed up through his website, for ANY signal. So affiliate signs up, and starts advertising their website to attract clients to our website.

  • Do you offer institutional accounts?

    Yes, we also offer various intitutional account types based on trading volume. Please contact us for more details.

I am trading the triangle formation drawn on my daily and 4 hour charts, this is a very relaxed way to trade, just waiting for the price to test support and resistance with small stop losses below support and above resistance. See the 4 hour chart below , I drew my descending trendline connecting the highs on may 11th and the ascending trendline on April 28th. See how the ascending trendline has been acting as resistance all the way back to January and February. Amazing.

ej-250509

It was just a case of waiting for a tight entry using the hourly and 15 minute charts. I went short at 133.29 and put my stoploss at 134.22. I have taken 50% profit at 131.70 and may re enter short if it retraces back up to 132.00.

I’m too busy trading and making profitable pips in the www.fx500club.com to update this forex trading blog as often as I would like but I will try harder.

Andersbaard Larsen  called this trade again this morning, he has helped me make more pips in the last two weeks than I can ever imagine, he is an amazing forex trader and also a very nice guy. He told us to enter if the price retraced to 131.38 I got in at 131.30 he said take some profit at 131.65 it hit that and bounced right off it, incredible. I took partial profits and added shorts on every pullback all the way down to 130.20. All good fun in the www.fx500club.com live forex trading school.

Euro Jpy Long trade, a slightly risky but calculated risk as a retracement away from support off the weekly s2 and daily s1, a small stop loss below 124.28 and the red moving average as target.

eur-jpy-280409-601

The guys in the www.fx500club.com are doing an amazing job of improving my trading and as a consequence my account is growing in leaps and bounds. The key for me being never risk more than 1% on any one trade. Here’s how I do it now.

Say my account is £1000, before I enter every trade I work out the stop loss, say for example it is 100 pips, 1% of £1000 is £10, that means I can afford to lose £10 on this 100 pip sl trade, £10 divided by 100 pips equals 10 pence a pip. Just 10 pence a pip I bet alot of you are trading well above that risk level, well don’t!! If my stoploss is just 50 pips then I can double my lot size and trade at 20 pence a pip. A £10,000 account balance means I can trade £1 on a 100 pip stop loss trade. I hope you are getting the picture now. Live and trade by those rules and you should never be stressed in a trade. Love your losses, with tiny risks you can take far more trades provided they have a good risk reward and are high probability trades.

Dan Armitage and the team at www.fx500club.com and the www.fxmonkeyschool.com have been concentrating on teaching us how to trade the hourly charts using the daily and 4 hourly to determin the direction of the trend. This is great for me because it really helps me understand how to trade the shorter pullbacks and retracements on the 5 and 15 minute charts.  Shorted this euro yen pair because it needed a retracement on the 60 and 4 hour chart, as you can see the stocastics were above 80 and had been for a while, well worth a punt a 60 pip stoploss but a healthy 600 pip target based on a 50 percent fibonacci retracement. It eventually retraced back to 130.90 from an entry at 136.79, very nice.

euro japanese yen Long trade off the daily pivot and the hourly 20 red moving average, we were waiting for a break of the descending trendline. The safest trade would have been the bounce off the trendline at about 9am. It topped out at 130.50 130 pips away from entry. Nice.

We had an ascending trendline, once the cci’s and triggers were all setup correctly we were looking for a long trade, the first yellow vertical line was the initial entry, once we broke through the descending trendline acting as resistance we had 1 red candle and traded the bounce long off the trend line and the pink 15 minute 20 moving average.

This long trade was a bounce off the Daily 20 day moving average, the thick red line. You can also see an ascending trendline, that the cci 21 had moved above zero and the cci 84 was rising, the stocastics had crossed. Yen sentiment was weakening across all the currencies. The long looked good to go.
