Update for 20100602

Had kind of a strange day today. Ran into a repaint issue with a metatrader indicator that I use, but I knew it could happen and is not a game changer at all. The indicator is the overlay indicator I use for inversing the franc onto my euro chart. Anyway, before going live with this method, I did all of my backtesting with the charts fullscreen, and I'm doing all of my trading with the charts much smaller, so that I can fit 6 on a 1920x1080 display. The overlay was flat (not a peak) when fullscreen, yet 1 pip off (forming a definite peak) when smaller, so I didn't take the trade. It was a large pattern, which is why I had to make the window full screen to see the whole thing anyway.

The trade would have been a quick win, but that's ok. I had two trades that I DID take, one loser and one winner for a small bump in equity, and yet another new equity high :)
