How to use the FX Rundown The FX Rundown is a technical system that uses end-of-the-day settlement prices to identify "bullish," "bearish," or neutral positions by analyzing hundreds of data points. The system removes the human element by giving the reader actionable trading ideas that attempt to position for new trends in the market. The system will keep track of the hypothetical open trade equity as reflected in the day's settlement. How the system works To establish a "long" position, the settlement must close above the "bull trade trigger." At that point, the "bear trade trigger" will act as a protective stop level. Conversely, to establish a "short" position, the settlement must close below the "bear trade trigger." The "bull trade trigger" will be a protective stop level at that point. Remember, the system will not flip directly from long to short but shift to the sidelines, reflecting a "neutral" position for at least one day before establishing a new signal. Risk Management Although protective buy and sell triggers are listed, we suggest using stop losses that you are comfortable with financially and technically for risk management. Please consult your broker or the trading desk if you have any questions. |
