and stats for range traders/faders like me are..

"when there is a false breakout (60% of the time) it will only go say 25 pips past the barrier and then be forced back.."

cont.. when the price reaches strong resistance or support, the question is: will the price bounce back or violate the barrier? Good channel traders (like Sir:-) and support and resistance traders (like daveo:-) will tell you that in general there is a 70% chance of a bounce and only a 30% chance of a breakout.

Hey gunjack.. here are some stats for you to digest.. just dont get ulcers doin it:-)

"How much do the odds have to be in the favour of the trader for them to make money? Often a trading success rate of 70% to 80% is assumed as the requirement to make money.."

well, that's the natural thought but I pair euor/usd and usd/chf w/o regard to euro/chf
becuz to me not pertinent to the inverse correlation for trading..

and it gives more agility to be adding and reducing when you can do either side and both..
more flexible and I have watched soo long that I know the trials and tribulations with each other..
risk very minimal and profit high prob..normally out of 8 setups 1 will implode but not be lost entirely necessarily just high maintenance, like gf
