So, coming back to this image. The arrow circled appeared at the close of the white candle and didn't move for the duration of the candle it sits above? What would've happened to that arrow if the candle below it hadn't gone down? Would it have disappeared?

{quote} Correct and all this time I was not looking at the daily. I just looked at the daily and shared it with gator for his opinion just now, thats how we ended up discussing this. This is why I ask to be fact checked as we go along, because I am learning and making notes from everyone and my own experience and the chart itself. Again I am just experimenting and thats why I reached out to the thread for fact checking, which you are masterfully doing. You, i'll be back, swd etc so far. Im just trying to test this thing out and you are all helping....

I am flat too. I prefer to be flat if possible daily. We never know what tomorrow will throw at us. I am waiting for the press conference before I decide to go long or short. Tomorrow we have the ECB press conference so be careful as it could go either way again tomorrow. Today has been a bit slow for me as I decided to slow it down going into today's news. By the way I only trade the Euro USD pair.


Cheers

Jeff

You might have something there. All you need now is back testning it from 2010 and forward. Its impossible to draw conclusions from 40-ish candles.
Just write down all the trades, profitable as well as losses and see if it gives you an edge. Then its all psychology from there.

Con? I am not selling anything. I am asking to be fact checked.
I have no ulterior motive.
I am not selling anything.

I am asking for help with testing a tool and learning from everyone's feed back.

Thanks for your previous help.

I dont know how the ignore list works, but if that is your desire, thank you again for your help.

{quote} Now you see why I took this to the thread, because when I back test it, there were no losing trades. And I find that hard to believe. So I said to myself, i must be going crazy. This can't be real. So that's why I brought it to the thred asking for help to fact check this thing. SO now Im trading it in real time, with real money just to see. So if I have witnesses and from their input as I go along we all see this together then I know I am not crazy. I don't believe this thing, so I need corroboration before I am convinced. Now I hear I...

Why don't you just trade it with real money for 1 year and come back and tell everyone how you did, if you must. That way you will know how it does for real.

{quote} Correct! But first, I am soliciting feedback by asking others to fact check this and this helps with opening my eyes to something new that I may never have seen before. Look how much i have learnt since week. I am making notes. If this thing really works, then I shut my mouth and disappear. You'll never hear from me again. Friday is the start of a new month. So Im testing the waters this week to take a leap of faith, starting Friday, to seriously see this thing through. I'm not selling anything or conning anyone, I'm just asking for help...

ok. But I have not said or implied you are a conman. It's not my thread so it's not for me to really say anything like that. Anway, must be getting on, I have a few things to do.

FOMC done? Woke up to see how it looks, seems not much volatility this time around.

Manage to get 1 short at 0880+, doubt it will go to 0887 for another (unless a news breaks). Not opening much trades unless it’s a tested wicks and tails area - EU news later as well. Well, back to sleep.

{quote} Based on your avatar, close your mouth and smell again. lol lol I'm sorry, I couldn't resist that one. I didn't mean it. Sorry Marco-Kanto - Please forgive me. I was only trying to be funny. Please you are welcome to retaliate in kind or take the high road as mature as we all are in here. My sincerest apology again. I was rude. On a serious note though, im just experimenting and you have been quite productive in helping me and I thank you.

I get something similar to you at least on the daily BUT at the close of the candle, not the open, I don't understand how you can get those arrows at the open.
For me it's not possible...
