Highest Open / Lowest Open Trade

{quote} I know TS that you had commented on this same point previously, but I guess it is a personal preference to perhaps reduce the probability of a false breakout.
No such thing exists. A breakout out of 1 point is still a breakout.

In general, I think you're on the right track. comments though -

GBPUSD - I think you should not enter before 02:00 server time Additionally, both NY and London markets are closed, whilst it has drifted up 25 pips, there is little volume until the European sessions open.

USDJPY - I've been watching this all day and I don't like the entry levels - boxes are big and the movement so far has been in a tight band.

AUDUSD I like better but am staying focussed on UJ until I have completed my 10 Trade Challenge

Hope this helps.
And once again

Let me first state: I am no expert.

Looking at my chart, your first entry candle on AU made a new high by 1 pipette, maybe you entered prior to that. The second entry (AU) was during an hour that made a new Daily high as well (two candles back from entry). I don't believe these were by the rules.
Wow! I've got some experience to gain.

Read the rules on your chart. Did you follow the rules? A trader must rely on themselves.

Have you mastered this method? Have you mastered trading at all? Do you have data to back your comments or it is just your opinion? Mate, trading is serious business. Cheers!

UJ 10 Trade challenge - Trades 9 and 10. UJ fell early on during the Day and bounced off lower open and for the whole of the Asian session drifted higher by around 18 pips. New high for the day was created at around 09:40 server time and pulled back. M15 did not provide any entries and so dropped down to M5. First entry (Trade 8) was made when prices re-entered the Zone of Interest for the second time (Missed the first retest). Prices didn't hold and SL was taken with 1R loss.

Kept on the charts until new high was formed at around 11:50 server time and sold at 12:10 after the new hour created a higher open and a smaller box. Went to bed and let position on auto pilot. 1st 1/2 was closed with 5 pips profit as was 2nd part to give a 1.1R return.

Overall for the two trades 0.1R.

My thanks to Too Slow for sharing his methodology and guiding us newbies and to Lemercenaire for his encouragement. It has been a worthwhile journey with 8 winners (including BE+1pip) and 2 losses netting 7R over the 10 trades.

I will certainly continue using and expanding this methodology to other pairs and honing this newly acquired skill set.

Well done and hopefully you will indeed continue to test and expand your knowledge base in what is an admirably controlled manner.

If you do, I have no doubt you will be successful.

TooSlow, the only problem I see is that we don't know which H1 candle will be the high/low of the day even if the current candle is the highest/lowest of the day so far. H1 candles after the current candle might go even higher/lower???
I trade the op's strategy using the daily candle, in this way it would be easier to detect the highs and the lows

Who is taking the 10 trade challenge the week of DECEMBER 15, 2019?

During the challenge, you are only to trade the same pair.

Beginners do not get to trade multiple pairs until they have mastered trading one single pair.

GREEN PIPS TO ALL.
Cheers!
