I believe that the next huge currency moves will be up versus the US dollar and I believe further that my JBCC system can get you in the right position for these moves. While I can’t guarantee profitability into the future I can tell you that I have taken the utmost of care and caution in constructing a system that is not only valid, that is based on a three-day price pattern and also incorporates careful risk management and trailing stop methodology.
