The concern:
I was just thinking ... I have read claims ( forexpeacearmy) of broker initiated spikes to prematurely stop-out specific clients who tend to do well. We are not in a position to validate this claims in isolation but as traders we can use our own ingenious to make sure that we get standard data feed on a day to day basis. If we are in the same co.then we should all get identical price feeds.
So my suggestion was that first we choose time frames of which we will post Excel sheets of the previous days data on a day-to-day basis. Also to prevent any possible data manipulation by individual traders, each post should be accompanied by a screen shot of the time frame's chart.
Choosing a standard:
1). I choose the 15 min time frame since it can adequately capture an entire days trading chart as a screen shot.
2). Secondly I will attach a template plus an indicator -
fibonacci pivots indicator which has day separations (labels) and various S&R zones with prices indicated on the key levels. With this we should get uniformity to substantiate the excel sheet data posted by a trader.
How to capture data:
Go to Tools > History Center > Forex > EUR/USD > m15 > Export. Then copy the day of interest data onto a new spread sheet and attach to your new post here as well as a screen shot capturing the entire day.
For Starters sake:
So to kick as off .. here is my m15 EUR/USD chart for 28th May, 2010
