But I observed the performance page from forexsiganl.com which shows a profit of 44 pips for USDCHF currency pair. I don’t understand how this guy made a profit when it hit the stop loss. Looks like on the second day also this guy presented false results. Check the following performance picture from forexsignal.com

Forexsignal.com first day signals review

Here is the first review of the signals I got from forexsignal.com. I got two signals on 6/9/2010 one for USDCHF long entry at around 6 AM EST and another for GBPUSD short entry at around 8 AM EST.

The following table shows you the three text messages I got for the first signal for the currency pair USDCHF. First SMS is the entry signal and the next two SMSs are for moving the stop loss.

First Signal – USDCHF Currency Pair:

Entry Type : Long(Buy)
Enter At : 1.1455
Trade Type : Retracement Trade
First SMS Second SMS Third SMS
Time Received 6:22 AM 8:35 AM 8:40 AM
Stop Loss 1.1423 Move To 1.1440 Move To 1.1455 (Entry)
Profit Target 1 1.1490 Same Same
Profit Target 2 1.1500 Same Same
Profit Target 3 1.1515 Same Same

The following is the picture which shows you, when, I got the entry signal and when, I got the next two text messages to move the stop loss. If you check it, you can see that the price did not reach the target profit 1. But we have moved the stop loss already to the entry price and the price hit the stop loss. If only one trade is entered I would have lost around 2 pips which is the spread for this currency pair. If I have entered three trades according to the profit targets, I would have lost 6 pips.

The following table shows you the two text messages I got for the second signal for the currency pair GBP. First SMS is the entry signal and the next SMS is for moving the stop loss.

Second Signal – GBPUSD Currency Pair:

Entry Type : Short(Sell)
Enter At : 1.4546
Trade Type : Retracement Trade
First SMS Second SMS
Time Received 7:48 AM 8:31 AM
Stop Loss 1.4578 Move To 1.4561

Profit Target 2 1.4501 Same
Profit Target 3 1.4486 Same

The following is the picture which shows you when, I got the entry signal and when, I got the next text message to move the stop loss. If you check it, you can see that the price did not reach the target profit 1. In the mean time we moved the stop loss with the second text message. The price hit the moved stop loss which is 15 pips from the entry. If only one trade is entered I would have lost these 15 pips. If I have entered three trades according to the profit targets, I would have lost 45 pips.

But I checked the performance results page from forexsignal.com for 6/9/2010 but it is showing 22 pips profit for USDCHF currency pair and 18 pips profit for GBPUSD currency pair. Looks like these guys are giving wrong results but I will check these signals for the remaining days of my subscription and write reviews accordingly.

Forexsignal.com signal reviews for 10 days

I have been hearing or reading about many forex signal services for a long time, which provide entry and exit signals for trading currencies. I wanted to try one, so I registered for a trail version of forexsignal.com today which is 6/9/2010 around 3 AM EST.

Forexsignal.com is offering 3 different services, Mobile, Lite and Enhanced for providing entry and exit signls.

Mobile version provides signals services by sending text messages to your cell phone.

Using Lite version you can access a particular webpage or a software, which shows you entry and exit signals.

Using Enhanced version you can access their charts.

I paid $79 for 10 day trail and registered for Mobile version to get the text messages with entry and exit signals to my cell phone.
I already got two text messages of entry signls this morning, one around 6 AM EST for USDCHF currency pair and another one around 8 AM EST for GBPUSD. Later I got another four text messages for moving the stop losses.

I would like to share my experiances with these entry and exit signals provided by forexsignals.com everyday for these 10 days. I will write about the first signals I got, which I mentioned above, in my next article.  Any comments, you are welcome.

AUDUSD Trading opportunity

The following is the four hour chart of AUDUSD currency pair as of June 6th, around 8:30 PM EST time. There is a clear support at the bottom of the chart. The price may break the support line or reverse at this point. But if you observe the stochastic indicator and CCI they both are in the oversold region. Moreover in the hourly chart also the price reached the oversold region. So there are more chances for the price to reverse back. This might be a temporary reversal only. But at the support line if any good bullish reversal candlestick pattern is formed I will enter a long trade and after a short gain I will move the stop loss above my entry.

Check the following four hour and hourly charts.

CHFJPY Trading Opportunity

The following is the four hour chart of CHFJPY currency pair as of 8:30PM. EST time. I have drawn a support trend line at the bottom of the chart. If the trend line broken at this point I think it’s a good opportunity to enter a sell trade or if any strong reversal candlestick pattern is formed at this point it’s good to go for a long trade. What do you guys say?
