Looks like I have to lower my expectations for a while. Shoot for 30 max. Will mean a max 30 Stop though. Mr T has pointed us towards some helpful info recently so will continue to delve into that while I complete my forward testing on this ...

wrong thread mate. Go away please.

Hi Riese - Yes I recall where Claudia commented that Tue-Thurs seemed to be the best days. I have just done a very quick visual of Monday action since 2 Jan 2023. There were 13 trading days. Of these, there were 12 days where we could achieve 30. 8 ...

Not a great start to new week. Initial break long did not last and was a quick -50. Watched price charge through range bottom before turning back up and making a solid bid north. As price made a new bid through range high I played a 2nd Long. Has ...

Normal broadcast resumed I see Claudia's Footsie played nicely too. Have a great weekend everyone.

Thx Claudia - It has its own way of biting you in the bum. My system will be simple but never easy. Off to bed here - trade safe.

And this is the most frustrating part of trading - My buffer (offset) was not large enough. Spiked into this short and then .... My stop of 50 was found right to the dot. Lesson for Binnie : Increase buffer to 5 Be very wary where the range close is ...

My 15min view - breakout long got to +25 odd before heading back into range and all of a sudden you are seeing your hard earned get swallowed up and you are now down -20 odd before the run north resumes. Hard on the nerves if you are one who sits & ...

NZ I Hope

Hi T - I did not try that opposite breakout but I follow what you did. Also see you used the break off the open line too. at least it was not a total whitewash. Its good to follow what you are all doing. Cheers.

Cheers Claudia - there I did answer my own question. Been sitting here trying to work out why the opposite direction pendings were re-instated as soon as I opened my laptop this morning but there was no mention of the original pendings inside the ...

Awesome - bit like the get out stakes in the last race Pretty scary info coming out of Europe last night. Son living in Germany was a bit concerned about this banking fiasco. Things seem to have settled overnight - at ...

Busy day on Ger40. Huge 4-8 range and even larger 8-12 bar.

Good morning (NZ Time) - probably providing my own answer here but I noted overnight that my EA pending orders were not activated Is that because I closed the lid of my laptop I wonder?? I have read somewhere that the PC is put into sleep mode ...

Huge range 4-8am. Still had to treat today like any other trading session. Got put in Short and quickly raced to +40 but then turned around and found my Stop . Still trialling 100 target with a 50 Stop. It's a nasty day by the looks .. This is still ...

GER40 - Just been doing a bit of a visual on last month & a bit since 1st Feb. (33 trading days ) VERY basic & rough summary and does not take account of what price did within the breakout bar (whether it retraced to hit any possible stops ). It is ...

trying to upload a song I have gotten to enjoy lately. Just need to re-learn how to do it properly then I will post. Happy weekend all. Had never heard this " Indian Summer " before - easy listening. Bourbon & Coke or a cold beer ...

Hey Mr T - I haven't got the experience to offer any comment on your chart. I am just a simple breakout guy and my trading journey has never included topics such as ADR / Trapping etc. but I really enjoy following along and picking ...

Still sitting quietly in the background trying to get settings right - Claudia's idea of this breakout time looks really good. I'm testing different conditions until I can make this my daily strategy. Currently looking at 100 target with 50 Stop but ...

At what point would you consider the short Bird? Once the new bar color changes or at the break of the open? Interesting idea ( trick ) Thanks for your input .
