I'll let you think about that for awhile longer

Think trailing stop, for long trade, will it always be below the entry?

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

I am not searching for anything. trying to make a point that if you want EA's then look on another thread or google whatever and leave this thread to Roadmap trades.

Laura rules OK
15 min level acts as some support - Longs above 200 ema

Hope this is as per Laura trade.

EDIT: 2400 shows up on hourly as possible resistance ?

{image} This trade eventually reached my target (ADR Low) but I almost closed it when it started moving sideways. Lesson being, let the market action take you out, not your emotional reaction.
Interesting early bird trade...
Entry between Frankfurt and London Open, the EMA8 channel was about 8 pips wide, the distance to the EMA200 about 40 pips (give and take).
Any reason for taking a trade on this particular pair ?
I'd have to set the "proximity threshold" value to 5 or higher to have gotten a signal from Hanover's scanner (although it did signal on M1).

Two main reasons.

It had already broken yesterday's low decisively and I could see from currency strength rankings that EUR was weak and CAD was strong. It seemed a decent probability that the trend would continue.

I had a request from degolep to change the values in the RSI Trendstrength indicator when it turns red and green.
I made the RSI value for Red and Green configurable in settings then each can have his/her own preference.

You are golden, thank you.
Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.

So if a user has all time frames set to true, what happens when one or more time frames don't match? It would be considered a mixed signal, right? Or is the user expected to only choose one time frame?

For use with this strategy, you set Monthly to False and all other timeframes to True.

Thanks! But what if one or more of the time frames don't match? That would be a mixed signal. I'm thinking it would be good if the indicator had a specific color to show mixed signals.
Learn from your mistakes and march on.
