Disliked{quote} That's good! Not many who come there already. Keep going. Perhaps only a small step towards profitability is necessary. You maybe should review all your trades and see if there is something to improve. A little less loss on your losers or a little more profit on your winners and you cross the break-even line. Yes, as I said, I don't find any improvements through the trade filters that I have already tried. With the ORB / London Breakout approach I basically already have filters like "time of day". I think since this approach focuses on volatility...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Let me know if it suits your trading style. BTW i mean it when i say this trade is like having your very own private ATM. I explained it in @waveskierrobs thread --- the hedging thread... Should suit you to a t as it dont need much thought if any and at most you might be in it for 2days but most fill same day unless the dividend is more than 20points. If the dividend is only 1 or 2points i dont trade it You will probably have to go back about 3wks to find all the posted examples and how to trade the dividend Hedging/averaging (https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/1184731-hedgingaveraging-trades-without-prediction?)...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Thank you. Maybe a stupid question but isn’t it possible to short sell prior to the ex-dividend gap if it’s certain that the market will be adjusted by x points and capitalize on that? So instead of risking the gap won’t be filled after the decline and just keeps dropping. I signed up for a new account with IIIIG because all of the brokers i still hold active accounts with doesn’t seem to be possible doing this with. Hopefully getting it approved until Wednesday.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Thanks Terry. I looked at it a bit last night. Seems like a no-brainer and just right for my 2 brain cells that are left. One question is how do you limit your risk on the trade if the gap is not closed? Edit: And what about last Wednesday. Must have been very small?Ignored

Disliked{quote} so if dividend is 20points are your size is 10£ you will lose £200. but your trade is plus 200Ignored
Disliked{quote} So as far as I understand it makes no sense to have a short position in advance if it is only balanced out after the dividend adjustment took place. So the trade is to BUY either before the gap or after it at the latest with the intention of selling higher again. Don't you have a high spread if your orders are executed out of market hours and where do you limit your risk. With a spread of e.g 3 Points at 100£/Point, you will be down -300£ right away. Assume price moves another 20 Points against you before anywhere near to a gap fill and...Ignored
