I am breaking my head on why the set of Claudia did better than me. For the last hours I can not figure it out. I guess you just got lucky? Box broke lower part of the box for 1.5 pips and then reversed https://www.tradingview.com/x/LqsCGvT1/
I change settings every day.

Different broker spreads? Different time zones?

Simple plan for the day. If it breaks that line sell to yesterday's low. If it bounces off the line buy to yesterday's high. Need to put some orders in but too early yet see what close of the hour brings. Daily range at 32.9% of 20 day gives plenty scope for a move. {image}
A good simple plan.
SEE LINE,TRADE LINE..PRICE HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE,,, PRICE WILL GO SOMEWHERE.

hi Mr H, my stats for Cable 08-00 15 minute break.
as I no longer use my Trade Pc I cannot display. I do have the stats all hand written and they are good.
Regarding adr? I am typing on my tablet and cannot post examples.
I am currently using my laptop to Trade .
But as an example, look at Cable, adr is normally over 100. Monday was 41 which is an exception, where as 70 is usually the norm for a bad range, and this is rare..
IF we have partial range and a good trigger we can look to making the adr ( partial range + ? to make adr)

Time zone should not be it.
If I look at my bottom of the box and execution price spread is the option that explains it best.
I did not even consider that.
I lowered the spread settings and will test again, thanks for thinking with me.

Could be spread, could be slippage, could be any game the market maker wants to play with the MT4 plug in.

Let's go back to basics. The whole point of this advisor is flexibility. It's not a 'set and forget'. Just a simple break out tool with a few clever bits thrown in (more to come).

Use it to trade the way you want, not the way I do. Make the system/strategy yours.

All I've done is give ideas and the ea of course (thanks to silent Retina).

Read post 40,401 - I told you that.

Ok no more posts from me on ea the I go my own way.

Just back. Missed the Dead Zone but picked up a 1-2-3 short on USDZAR of all things. About as outside of the box as thinking can get.

While I mention The Dead Zone, these are the only set-ups I'd have been interested in today. Again, not your average candidates, lol.

Dead Zone (Not traded, just fyi).

There were DZ options if you were simply trading them straight - inc Old Faithful, UC. The ones above are the only ones that had S+D weight behind them, however, so for me, that gives them the leg up.

Thanks for the ideas. The most compelling is "a good trigger". What other examples of "a good trigger" beside the extremes of 00-00 H4, 04-00 H4, and 08-00 M15?
Buy low, sell high.

Apply the same to NY. The 15 minutes or so before/after open are quite simply when orders are being placed/filled hence volatility.

Lem - one more for the day. 19.00 Newcastle I'm looking at the favourite but covering with an outsider at 8/1 (like the name you'll get it).
And it won - omen for a good night maybe !

NY is much more volatile, especially on NFP days. With stoplosses, it is not as profitable.

NFP only once a month. NY open is no big thing - usually get US and/or CAD news 30 minutes in to it which livens it up. NY close is fun watch the spreads fly high.
