{quote} I have been meaning to ask, re The Frankenbreak, I assume that the covered range is adjusted for the clocks changing? It should be noted that, as a lazy sod, I never ever bothered to keep changing the indicator time slot when that happened, I just left it as it was!
Hi Lem. Have to admit I didn't even think about the clocks changing lol. So the 7am break now happens at 6am?

NFP day, usually a chop before the numbers ... so might have to pass. Especially after yesterday's loss (account is still well in profit, but preserving capital is vital for me), it might be a good idea. Yesterday I traded poorly in my opinion. I was not able to profit during a trend trend day. Once had wrong timing for the BO, then trying to fade the move which was absolute BS and remembered me of the piker trades I took during my first three years of trading. Talked with P about it, he gave good advice.

Not feeling at 100 % today ... I might regret it later, but right now can easily see myself getting chopped up in a market maker's range ... or missing a shot, getting nervous about it ... vola is too high and hard to predict for me with tight stops ... I pass on it. Plenty of easier trades after NFP and next week I think.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

Ignore the 2nd set of lines, the 1st set is the actual breakout box.

My break is from 21 gmt to 6 gmt.

Cable Billy Bar gave its' minimum five pips but I hung on and lost it . Could have traded Wick Zone back into body but didn't, ( wake up Turnip).
Looked at one minute chart of Billy bar Zone out of curiosity, and you can see potential of Wick Zone thingies?

Lem - here you are - Dax did okay with cloudy thing- still involves looking at levels under all the lines
( Our old cat is approaching the end we think -have made a bed area for her to make her more comfortable since we cannot allow her to wander around the house anymore)

I think it also means for us in the UK, the dead zone trades take place after 12pm now instead of 1pm. And the dead hour would be 11am to midday. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If in doubt, just repeat after me:

''It's Friday. It's Friday. It's Friday. Why am I still thinking about this?'' and go do something un-tradery

Trying to Wick Zone on every 1 min candle will fry your brain. Most won't clear the spread enough to make it worthwhile.
