The more I've been trading this system, the more I'm refining it. As with anything mechanical, pure mechanics don't work all the time or at least consistently enough to produce a stable income. So, that leaves you with having to use your gut feeling many times along with the system guiding you in the right direction.

That said, this is basically how I've refined it - and it works nearly 100% -- when you see that ema trend north of the sma, just go short. It's that simple. The opposite is true also. But for emini trading, just shoot for 1 point or so on each reversal. That's where you'll get into trouble. Getting greedy. Just go for one point. You'll zap 1 point here and there all day long. Like I said, it's like an ATM machine. And you'll never ever be on the wrong side of the trend or get in late.


The best setup is when you have a consistent down or uptrend, and then the ema trades north of the sma BEFORE the trend changes. That's when you enter with 3x+ your normal contract count. For example, go long 5 or 10 contracts on that trade rather than one or two.
