Eur/Aud not taken because there was so little volume, Eur/Cad had somewhat more activity, don't like taking more than 1 trade on slow moving pairs.,
Gotcha, thanks

Rockypoint - quick question. What system is yours (doesn't look like MT4)? Just out of curiousity. I signed up with a new broker today to be able to use cTrader because I like it better - hoping they have range bars available for me to use.
............And do they ?

If you use the MT4 choice you can get them here ( you have to buy them but they are good) ( I am a customer but get no commission for mentioning them )

They do have custom built ones by members of the community however - example here;

Thanks anyway for looking.

Rockypoint. You wrote that your initial SL is 20 pips. But usually SL is around 8 pips. Can you explain how you manage your trades? How you understand that it is time to close losing trade?

Today I took a couple of trades;
First the GBPCAD short, later I trades the JPY against the GBP and against the EUR.
Both were a bit messy trades but they did the job and delivered 70 pips all together.
The EURJPY entry looks like a late entry but I did enter because of a confluence with an other system I use.

{quote} Hi it’s a range bar EA and you can find it in post #3101 if you need it. When installing it ,it has an option to choose gaps or not to choose gaps.if you choose gaps,lets say there is high impact news, the range bars will show a gap when price jumps. If you don’t choose gaps like me, the jump will be shown by abnormally huge range bars. I like this effect because I will easily remember what happened there just by the visuals unlike if the bars where all ‘normal’ so to speak. It’s just the way this EA was made. Note:I put the EA in the indicators...
Hi ichikuse i have download that EA and i use 5 digit price broker. when i set that EA its work not properly , when i go to offline on chart that shows live price but not create next candle or not go forward. can you please give your range bar EA setting with a nice picture which is you use your trading.

Thanks for the link.
I tested it but unfortunately it is not usable for this strategy because it is not possible to attach the Ichi indicator to the range bar cart.

I tested several platforms trying to reproduce the Rocky charts, due to the fact that I'm italian and Thinkorswim doesn't accept italian customers.

I have no connection with the following company/brokers:

- MotiveWave (with supported brokers) - https://www.motivewave.com/brokers/brokers.htm - this is the one that I use but now It is no more possible to trade from it due to European rules

Took these trades a while ago.
I opened two lots per trade, doubling the risk and the pip counter is times 2.I think i love to trade like this BUT it means i have to trade like a sniper and take the most promising trades if i can find them, an art i am still learning....
The criteria i used to buy EC i applied to GC too.

EDIT:Trading is a journey and i keep changing pairs i trade but i think i have made up my mind now.I will be trading the ten pairs in my charts.4 Euro and 4 pound crosses,gold and usdcad.They move well for me and have huge adr's.

Hi Ichikuse,

Nice examples. Thx.
I just don't get your reasoning in the EURCAD trade. Is it meant as a continuation trade?
There is no NZD in your chosen trading pairs. Don't you like trading it?

Today my trading day was not so good; made a couple of trades but got in the red somewhere.
Picked it up again during the NY session so I only have a small loss now. (I am sensing a pattern here; loosing during London, profitting during NY)

My losses were like;
