Very good Jude, although I am using pivots with another indicator that only places them automatically (I used to place them manually but now it saves me some work).

I follow the trend in daily and weekly charts, then I go to 1h chart, look at rsi (20, 50 and 80 levels) and sometimes these 3 emas (5, 13 and 62) and when I see some confirmation (if there are not important news) I place buy/sell stops (+/- 5 pips up or down the pivots) in 5 pairs: eur/usd, usd/chf, gbp/usd, usd/jpy and gbp/jpy

I use 30 as stops loss of these pairs, except gbp/usd and gbp/jpy: 40

And of course the power of trailing stop (not in marketiva, they haven't trailing stops and I must do it manually)

It's a great trick when you are gaining to change the stop loss to save your pips

It's a simple method and it works for me.

My girlfriend is only testing the strategy that I found in that Blog (20pipsdaily) with good results these days.

Simple pivots indicator:
