DislikedEUR-USD.
Notice that the market broke the box 3 times. The first time was a straight breakout, then the market went back to mama's belly. There's two subsequent breakouts with their pullbacks, I decided to show you guys the second one for illustration purposes. You could take the first one and will work out nicely as well.Ignored
DislikedNomo - do you ever look at the 1min chart for a pullback/confirmation or too noisy? The "straight breakout" on 5m is not so straight on 1m?Ignored

I could have gotten more PIPs on each trade using my normal approach vs a straight 20 PIP target point.
Good night for the Asian Session. Too bad the spreads are higher nowadays.Ignored
DislikedHey Nomo,
Just wanted to know the reasoning behind the box being between 7.00-9.05 and not 7.00-9.00.
Is it because of the results of the forward testing which you have done?Ignored
DislikedNo reason, I think is a glitch on the program or something. Five minutes won't make a difference.Ignored
