3/. Exit on 123 reversal or 2b break

Sat in front of the charts for 2 hours from the start of the UK session. No trades. Put it down to perfecting my patience. Always tomorrow in this game.

Hi ichikuse,

Do you still use currency strength meter for choosing the pairs to trade?

{quote} Hi ichikuse, Do you still use currency strength meter for choosing the pairs to trade?
Hi Civil,

No I don’t use it.I watch the volatile pairs where it seems something will always happen almost everyday.I focus on USDCAD,EURAUD,EURJPY,EURNZD,EURCAD
GBPAUD,GBPCAD,GBPJPY,GBPCHF,GBPNZD
GBPUSD,XAUUSD.It is extremely hard to find a day where a GBP pair or EURO pair did not move so Id rather watch them always.

Today the Euro was like a lion waiting to pounce,barely moving until it came out guns blazing.In situations like that,where instruments are getting ready to detonate the strength meter will not warn you unless you are watching the chart and analyzing it for a possible move. So watching suits me best since I start trading around Frankfurt time.

When RP starts trading, he will check and see what the euro did and target such charts for possibly continuation or reversal.

Many trends start during London and often it’s difficult to gauge these with the meter.Much easier during the US session.

The meter is awesome.Rp uses it well.If it suits one’s style they’d better use it.

Sorry for for a long answer.

Interesting point about watching the UK session then trading the US session after noting the movers of the UK session - have you been doing that long enough to form a tentative opinion ?

Hi Turnip,

No I don’t trade the US session based on the UK moves.I was just explaining that that is exactly what RP does when he uses the meter since it shows him the previous 4 hours action.

RP says he uses the meter whether he trades the London session or not.However he also says although the meter aids him but if it doesn’t give him anything on that day he looks for trades visually not strength-wise.

When instruments are not moving which some call accumulation of orders , I believe that’s when the meter is not helpful.

Funnily enough, having been in a conversation with a mutual friend about oil yesterday, I had a look at it with RP-Ichi also. Solid as a rock.

EDIT: Having said that, I use WTI, not Brent.

Rhetorical question?

Nasdaq e-mini and the HSI on the Hong Kong Futures Exchange are the two most wonderful, volatile trading instruments on the planet.

[Note: If the HSI scares you too much then you can trade the HHI in place of the HSI as the correlation is ridiculously high and the moves are 1/3rd to 1/2 the distance of the HSI at $6.37 USD per point. You can also trade their mini contracts which only move at $1.27 USD per point...1/5 the amount of the big contracts]
