Bo, These retrace trades are done primarily off the 04-00 4 hour bar and the 08-00 15 min bar. We are using the UK open volatility to make %% edit, what i am saying is, you cannot do this on any bar as you can be hit with whip
Thanks Billy, it makes total sense. What would be the MAX retrace you would wait for and still trade the original break? -5,-6,-7,......50% of the bar? I'm trying to figure out when is it still good to enter in the original directin and when is it good to just wait for the 2nd trigger? Thanks as always for the explanation. I know that you've always said your favorite range for the 04-00 was 35. So If I wait for it to retrace -10 pips after first trigger........that still leaves me with 25 range which for my bankroll and expect risk%....is too big. I might have to use a max of 20 or 25 pip range and still wait for a -10 pip retrace...........or like you said......just wait for the 2nd trigger since that one has better stats.

Honestly, the best way to trade a retrace is to just bring a chart up (any good mover) and see if it has broken a high/low and retraced, the more the better and then enter the direction of the actual trigger.
you will then make XXX AND the +5 as well.
obviously i only do it with Cable but back in the old days with A/U and E/J

once a retrace is on, we do not know how far it will go, we may have clues but quite often it is as simple as a stop then reverse back

'Morning Billy and all the happy crew.

DAX was looking like a move South was the call for the off trigger and to cut a long story short, that's what we got. +5%

At the point I printed this, I was long gone out of the trade and price had actually returned up and then dropped for a second time shown here.

DAX 06:00 - 08:00 (Done WZ Short) +5%

I had inked that up before I remembered to add the 2-Hr block overlay and I went back to do so. In the seconds it took to realise this, well, things had changed somewhat, lol.

Cable t 08-55
I got 5% off the High break. and i took 8 off the -18.
so now -10 , all in hand.

The break of the 08-00 15 bar almost immediately broke the High of the 04-00 4 hour bar.
i have done for the day unless i see a drop down to break 08-00 15 bar again and 04-00 & 00-00 4 hour bars.

i am working in my GFs garden as she needs a composter building and i shall be earning points lol
