{quote} stair steps was one of the best threads on FF...shame it ended like that. i'll leave on my laptop and set it on both ej and gu this night.
It was.

But like many threads on FF the originator throws a simple idea in and everyone wants to change it. Same with Davit.

FXH wasn't very tolerant and it could get funny.

What happened on GU?
Forexlive says: "EU is said to be willing to offer a UK-wide customs union agreement proposal to Theresa May, helping to meet the demands she wanted when talks broke down ahead of the EU Summit earlier this month"

Well, it might just be all blabla ...
Fix up, trade sharp ...

With this Brexit talk, nothing is really on the calender. Also, it could just be a move for whatever reason and they just write a story.

It wasn't a planned event it's just a news release - brexit silliness.

What was your trigger? Pivot cluster rejection at 1.3040?

Edit: At least, that is what I saw ... sold break of 1.3020 with follow through for + 15, so kind of breakevenish day so far with a little bit of soup on the side and a baguette.

Nothing that clever. Just watch these big fake moves and there's always a reversal and back to pivot/00 seemed obvious. Got out too early by the looks. It will bounce around here for a bit then ??

It is not really clever, just a ton of levels on the chart that got rejected. With screen time I suddenly started to not kill myself any more after 5 years within the last 2 ... now just make money consistently and I can get there. Nobody can tell one however how long you have to do the right thing every day to succeed, I know.

My plan now is to sit until Carney's carnage hour and just wait for a reaction, if none then just think about setting up the night shift.

No what I meant was just selling the high (or looking too) nothing more.

Agree wait and see what rubbish Carney comes out with.

Ea's all set for tonight by itself. Lem can do the late shift if he chooses I've had enough.

Edit: Just on e/j

Not totally sure what you mean, because you never know for sure it is the high. As far as I understand you see it as the move reversing on that m5 candle and then chopping around in this weak manner for a while, indicating this toppish structure?

Yes, I will just need to check the times in the broker and put them in the EA, also set the breakout to "true". Not totally sure though if EJ or GU, spreads and liquidity might be better on EJ as I said before, but that is just a general assumption without the needed stats.

You got the idea.

On the ea I'm going to stick with e/j on live. Stats we can gather between us all over time. Maybe the AUD pairs worth a look ?

I got pivot at 3004 if the hour closes below then wine bar ea should take off.

Yeah, I think me too. Have reviewed some asia ranges/historical spread. Makes more sense to toss out a pair that is mostly traded in London and NY and put one that is heavily traded during Asia.

Regarding AUDUSD, I find it more and more of a waste of time to trade these pairs. Spread is not really super cool, movement rather choppy generally. All my backtests and own results are break even at best with this one. Maybe AUDJPY ...

Mine is 1.3002. Generally I think a few pips difference do not really matter, I have lost interest in finding the holy grail entry to the exact pipette.

A/J is a good idea like that.
