How do i explain Cable trade lol. Lem gave a good answer with scalping etc just before..... Anyway... Cable low broke then retraced up to break High,,,,THEN DOWN uuuuuuuuuuuuugh I have a Long counter running so running at -14. BUT i nailed the short especially working off the inside bars and 08-00 Low. I fix bad trades and make more that way.. I can quite easily close my -15 and still be up, but i give nothing to the broker lol. time right now is 09-55... If we have movemnet up i (might) wait for a drop and short again. My bias is short. Lets see,...
Hi Billy, been reading the thread for hours today, Have i got this post right ?
1/ ive got my pending orders open for 8.15am it brakes low then it retraces up and triggers my long trigger, i am now in a equal hedged trade with say -14pips locked in, it starts to drop again so i short where the original first trade was made, so i now have 2 shorts and one long and hope it continues down enough to make a 5 pip profit?
2/ 8.15am it brakes low then retraces up and triggers long, and keeps going so i am in a hedged position (neutral) what happens then ?
do i un hedge while its going up if its going well or wait for a retrace at support and resistance and supply and demand, and un hedge there.
or leave it until tomorrow and un hedge which ever way the trigger brakes so i have double lot size and if that trade wins i gain 10 pips ?
Sorry for all the questions just trying to get my head around it, cheers Billy.
EDIT : Billy dont expect you to tell me your exact method but am i on the right wave length ? just after a few tips ( dont eat yellow snow ) lol

{quote} That E/J trade - Midnight to 1 am UK time ( The Billy original thread starting subject) - is still worth keeping in your armoury I reckon Lem? Especially if you add an Alien dimension or zone to it, in addition to a straight break
Absolutely, Mr-T. There's also my variant on The Dead Zone, the Witching Hour, which runs in this close-out / lead-in period. I'm looking at how you could run micro-moves inside the larger EJ Daily Break, including additional Daily WZ info (as last night) and S+D.

Cable 8 am bar delivers again Billy. {image}
Re your earlier comment on WZ tech, the 08:00 bar was perfect WZ move (short into the body). Not traded by me, just sayin'.

Hi Lem, did you have a good day ? i didnt trade today ...
Hi montego. I played late into the night / early hours on that major EJ move. Then winged it on a scalp play for The Monster in the morning after being left in the dust by the initial move.

Had to venture out into the great outside world after that - it does exist folks and it was sunny today! - and so that was all I got in on today.

Hi, it can happen (whip).

ideally, we have trigger, win ...

Or trigger Fail, so we counter and add one extra entry for the 5%.

Should that Fail just do another counter......

This is very rare. that is why i only trade certain time frames at certain times.

As a last resort close the trades... we have the stats to win over time, i can explain more,

edit ..i often make more than 5% and this extra is used to offset a loss should it happen, and i normally get it back.

In a perfect week i have +25% even though i could have a lot more %, i will close a bad trade call it a casualty/loss leader etc but i normally get it back

After the initial madness, The Monster would have been a nice playground with rich pickings through the day.

i do tell most of how i trade but not all the triggers...Sometimes i have 2 entries on a trade , the first entry and also a retrace entry.

I use small lots relative to my 1st bank roll and bigger bank roll forhelp

actually, when i have my bot running, it either gets it right (win) or starts entering and countering repeatedly, it is really freaky.
