WTI finished the day at the same price of yesterday with a quite low ATR that produced 3 winning trades. Please note that the last arrow was a false signal.

What a rally since May 21st. It's tough to think OPEC+ won't increase production or at least provide guidance for increased production starting Aug. The OPEC+ meeting next week is going determine whether or not we're at a top in WTI. Lots of talk out there about $100 oil.

WTI went up 67¢ today with a lower than average ATR that produced 2 winning trades. I suspect that the last signal is false since the FxBay MACD is still positive.

Indeed, a strong rally so far this year, first 6 months almost over.., I must read back. "The Precious One", SPOT GLD, continues to languish. Crude now $100.00 being postulated. No doubt about it, Oil the winner for China virus recovery to date, never be rid of it, CV, but we do our best. : ) When on a good thing, re Crude, well, you know the story. Happy. : )

Oil the winner for China virus recovery to date
I had to check this because of how much copper has been on a tear. One of my favorite charts since the pandemic has been a Crude/Copper overlay, especially to determine demand in China. Sure enough, copper has retreated but crude has continued to rally.

Here's the CL/HG overlay (CME futures) since the start of 2020:

WTI went down $1.30 today with an average ATR that produced 1 break even and 4 winning trades with the last one probably continuing downward when the new session begins.

WTI went up 71¢ today with an average ATR that produced 6 winning trades. There was 1 false signal (4th arrow) that had no consequence since the trend continued upward.

That's a fantastic part.
Question: does the EA act automatically?

Hi Hutch, according to your strategy, is the correct buy signal entering the buy signal on ENTER 1 or on ENTER 2. I would like to ask if after the arrow and MACD crossing the zero line we immediately enter the position on ENTER 1, or wait until the two bricks are finished and they are of the same color and we only enter the position on ENTER 2 after two finished bricks of the same blue color. Please, please, could you explain how you do this and get into the position. Thank you in advance and best regards

It seems that it was not a good entry into the position, as the price after a slight correction continues the upward trend. Hutch, do you use Stop Los when you're cutting losses and are you going into the opposite position to compensate for your losses? Can you describe how you do it ??

Nolan for what it's worth my take on your entry is that technically it was correct ie you got a signal and the MACD had just crossed the line. What you could have done better was manage your exit and taken a small loss once the MACD went back up and the renko brick formed in the other direction. The next signal had a higher probability as it was coming off a recent high which was Tuesday's big candle push down

The entry that you show is correct because the second brick after the signal arrow is of the same color and, more importantly, the FxBay MACD zero line has been crossed on the up side and is positive. If the FxBay MACD is quite positive I enter into a trade at the beginning of the brick after the signal arrow but if the FxBay MACD is not positive enough for my liking I enter after the second brick has been completed or if is near completion. It's a matter of interpretation but never forget that the two best indicators that you have are your eyes no matter the strategy that you are using.

Because Renko has a tendency to produce very good trades because there are usually many consecutive bricks of the same color I don't worry much about losing trades and I never try to compensate for them. On the other hand we never know when we will suffer an electricity or an internet outage so I always use a 2 bricks stop loss just in case this happens. I like to use the reverse button on the EA to close a trade and start a new one. Although it looks excellent on the chart it's not perfect. When we trade there are instances of closing a trade too late in which case the entry into the new trade is also late so we forfeit a few pips. This strategy is good but not perfect.

WTI finished the day at the same price as yesterday with a below average ATR that produced 6 winning trades and 1 potential losing trade because of a false signal (4th arrow signal) although that signal later proved to be good. On a false signal I close the trade and wait for the next good signal.
