Smoothest currency?

Post by painless »

I am looking for a new market to test and I would appreciate any advice. A currency or perhaps something else? I am trading one index now and will add another soon so I would like to diversify. I am a fairly long term trend trader so months between trades is fine by me.
Thanks
Blair

try Japanese Yen and Euro Currency, from my experience these 2 are the best trending markets among currencies

british pound WAS very smooth. Dangerous philosophy thats sent thousands of "great systems" to the trash can. Given the choice of creating a portfolio to trade with a good robust trend following system, i d choose the WORST performing commodities over the x amount of years as opposed to the best.....imo.
