Note: I will use this synthetic loss to simulate recovery for today and for yesterday. I can do that because I was flat the market coming into this V-Trigger, so it is the same thing as using today's V-Trigger to recovery from yesterday's loss.
In other words, if there is a profit today, simply subtract the gross profit from today's synthetic loss - AND - add today's profit to yesterday's synthetic loss. That will kill two birds with the same stress test stone.
Y = MX + B. The most important price level of all.
I missed the platform pic - but the synthetic loss was about -98 pips. So, I'm looking to recovery that today. Also, the trade previous to that last would have been a failed trade in the absolute - because there was not enough pips in the move that came after to recover.
Currently, the first V-Trigger for today has triggered at 12:45 GMT-1 on the M15 chart. From now on, I'll only be posting pics of the platform here (AFTER the TRADE has COMPLETED) and pics of the CHARTS, over in the discussion thread.

My apologies - forgot to post the platform pic. However, if you've been following the trade cycle in the other thread like you should have been, then you realize that +41 pips were closed out and +156 (roughly) were available on the trade cycle.
I'll try to keep up on both threads in future posts.
Current condition: Entry at 0000 (GMT-1) T-Trigger Line (a Time based entry Line) at 3858. Looking for 50 to 75 pips.
The details of why I am shifting to the Australia/Asia/European market times are in the other thread.

I basically had to cut this down to the focus of this morning. The two trades seen are from 0000 GMT. Firs trade closed was -26 pips in swap loss. Second trade closed for roughly +80 pips net gain. Total net pips on the cycle was approximately +28 pips for the abbreviated test.
Total absolute (gross) pips available on the cycle = +210.
Total real-time (net) pips available on the cycle (to the current close) = +209 (and improving)
Total actual (traded) pips = +28.
Test was successful as trade cycle saw between 50-75 pips.
Will close position for about a +36 pip net gain, and a +92 pip total within the 24 hr period. The trade at 0000 GMT and the trade at 1345 GMT. (see other thread for trade details)
