would someone tell me what is wrong with my settings?

Perry I have a question. Hopefully I can be clear.

Ive been getting killed on stops and noticed that my entries are usually a little late. The 4 range moves very fast so by the time I get a signal and I get in, its late to the game.

Do you anticipate and put orders in ahead of time and if so what do you use to anticipate?

This question has been asked and unanswered many times. I reluctantly put myself up as a straw man to draw out some direct commentary on trader's experience, and offer mine. But first kudo's to Perry, his system, and his unwavering patience in sharing, supporting, and following up each and every question and request for support.

Pro's
-Some folks have reported the ability to hit 80 to 90% entry efficiency. But don't confuse that with 80 to 90% profitability.
-Perry's system has enabled me and many others to 'see' price action better using his combination of moving averages.
-The basis paradigm is solid, the visuals great, and Perry's trading advice invaluable.

Con's
-There is more discretion involved that meets the eye. Several people have attempted automating the very straightforward mechanized ruleset, but have not been able to return a profitable strategy. More of the discretionary features are being identified daily. Maybe the BOT contest will draw out a few strategies.
-Without good money management 90% entry efficiency does not equate to 90% profitability, even when going for small targets as advised.
-Alot of the tweaking of indicators has detracted from the basic paradigm and ability to see the price action on the chart.

I am not profitable overall with the system, but much of that are my own personal foibles regarding following rules and taking losses. But I remain encouraged and continue to work with one of the most promising discretionary systems I have seen.

Can fellow traders please chime in too, with whether they are profitable or not, using this system?

PS @ MrBean Go thru the webinar and thread. It will affect your trading positively overall.
