I like to label pairs in regard to what market structure they are presently sit in. So they are currently a pair that’s in a long period of a trend or a pair that is in a long period of consolidation. Now I have my market type, I can now trade with either a trending designed EA or trade a pair with a reversal designed model. Therefore I am demo testing EA’s that are suited to a particular group of pairs but I want it to be robust and be able to be profitable in almost the whole group. If it was only good for one pair, i wouldn’t trade it. The interesting thing is two pairs seldom work for my EA’s. USDJPY is untradeable in my eyes and GBPCAD produces draw downs over the top. It’s probably just my shitty EA’s.
