{quote} I've been playing with SSBO on 5 minute with no buffer and second break. Also removed the candles and ended up with an interesting chart. {image}
If you put a 20 ema on the chart, you will see that the 20 ema seems to push the candles out of the box. One of Volman's confirmations.

{quote} Something I stumbled over a year ago was that I noticed the second break of prelondon was pretty interesting. Your chart kind of confirms my observations. Also interesting that once again Hanover got involved ... kind of missed all this when I started out, see where you go when you have to pick from a zillion of threads in the beginning ... Read a bit about Darvas box, as suggested by Lem ... but it is just trading the bo, which we have already been doing, so nothing really new. The trick is to filter and make the RR fitting for your individual...
Darvas was interesting for me as it led me to investigate flex-boxes, which led me to adapt the SSBO in the same kind of way Claudia is doing now.

Down on the scalp charts, as IKD mentions, you look for these flex-boxes to find entries.

Seems like FH had it all into an indicator in the end which draws the boxes automatically. Then it is within the discretionary evaluation of the trader how to use them. Originally it was for m15, but can probably work on any TF. These m15 boxes are quite common though, and price usually travels 40 pips or more from these. This might make a good s&f approach during the day with less screen time - waiting for the consolidation, then set orders both sides - similar to what Claudia does. Funny thing is, I read about "Box plays" in Carter's book before.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

Another possible I've been keeping an eye on opens up the week quite nicely.

I meant to say as well, I never ever bothered with a buffer.

Jumped in on an aggressive entry pre-KO and out just as quickly as pressure is building for a short flip.

DAX +2.5

Morning all.
i have spent a lot of last week in the New Forest.
Anyway trading.
Cable,,,, 00-00 4 hour break. High broke for + 10.
The 08-00 15 min bar break. This broke the 00-00 4 Low and its own Low broke, therefore I am short.
i haven't looked at Dax yet.
trade well all.

Dax, my 00-00 range trigger is 12280. High was broken several hours ago , so I am waiting for this area to be re visited to short. ( IF it happens).

Cable, 08-00 15 minute bar.
Low broke for +5 %. I still have a short on following the 00-00 4 hour bar Low being broken. Looking for daily range or part of it.
It it retraces I will close at + 1 or 2. Then decide what to do lol.

DAX +27.5 all-in on a drizzly Monday morning.

That'll do for now.

Breakfast.

Glad you had a nice week away, Billy. Never been to the New Forest. Add that one to the list, I think

Trade well all.

Slooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww...

@Claudia - Horses not much better. Had one system bet race and it now includes one of those sodding steamers from across the waaatur which has come in from 12/1 to 9/4 fav. Absolutely zero form but hey, it's Irish...Pain in the proverbial.

If you're interested, it's The Jam Man in the 2:45. I reckon there's three options to take it on with, maybe four, which is actually too many.

Other than that, I may take an interest in The Crafty Touch at 6.0 / 2.3 in the 4:45. It's a Conditional's race and normally wouldn't be touched with a barge pole but check out this particular conditional and the yard. Above that, the backstory on the horse's progress is good, so yeah. One to consider.

It is a slow day.

Haven't looked at horses for some reason - now is the time !

Edit: Good call on 2.45 Lem.

Pretty hot outside here ... market choppy as always when I arrive at the desk ... Maybe some Poker is a profitable choice ...

Slow day ,so something will happen lol.
I haven't traded since I last posted.

My first attempts did not go so well with it. Probably needs some extra rule for targets and BE. But then I do not know again. Was making 1:2 RR with about 50 % winrate on over 100 trades, then suddenly 32 losers, one BE and 1 win since april. THAT is kind of puzzling!
