Building up nicely for a break. Looks a bit messy but only a 16/17 pip range. See what tomorrow does to it.

Hey soccer fan Celtic postponed again !

@ Lem - busy day on horses. Looking at Newbury. Adam has 7 rides which is a lot ! Riding for the stable but also got one for John Gosden which is always going to have a chance. So lots of multiple bets to figure out.

Cable 08-00 15 minute bar break, Low broke for +5%.
it was a bit cheeky because the 08-00 broke through 00-00 high and then dropped.

i am currently short trading off the 2 hour bar .
Trade well all.

Morning. I have just gone long on Cable, targeting R1 initially and then Friday's high. Like you say, it is messing around.

I know we always blame you lol, but in this instance it isn't your fault . We've had a low break, high break, low break, and then high break again. Looking back, EU seems to be a bit more predictable when trading range breaks. On EU, we've had a low break, and now it looks like price is getting ready to break the high. If it does, I'll be going long, targeting DR2 (1.1892).

4 hour range was quite small today Billy. Do you ever adjust this, the way you adjust the 8am range?

What a snooze-fest. As soon as Cable and EU get anywhere near 70 ADR today, I'll be shutting everything down. On Cable, the 12-4am range has been broken more times than I care to count lol. I want it to move and hit either Friday's high, or low. Stuck in the middle just now.

EU has been a bit better. 12-4am range broke low, and then high. And we are still above the high. Aiming for DR2. Technically the ADR can take us to 1.1925 ish but I don't see it moving that far today.

What Cable has done today has not happened for a very very long time.
BUT, to break each high /low break down, it isn't that bad.

You know when i say i enter a trade and if it reverses i will close trade for what ever i can get/keep.
these breaks could of gotten you a few points.
Like i posted , i stopped trading ages ago and am happy with what i have got.
e/u was ok like you posted.

If you enter a trade for example long, it moves up x amount and then retraces back,
we close the trade with 1 or 2 points.
1 or 2 points is better than none, but what happens if you close at 1 or 2,and the price goes back up?

this in effect will increase your original trade range.
something to think about.

Yeah when you look at each break, I could have got some points like you say. What I was doing today was smaller lot size and trying to aim for ADR or around 70 points. Because of the small lot size, it was not really worth closing for a small number of points. Would still have been better than a loss I suppose.

85% probability it will break this week the high/low of last weeks IB. i guess cable might do it in the second half of the week...
