Apart from my "Roadmap" trades ( Laura's thread)..................Is this the sort of trade trigger one looks for with Blues Fibo one hour box idea?

My forex box starts at 8am UK time - should it be 7am UK time for Forex?

I guess the answer to " Long here?" was a YES ?
( Look at those tails bouncing off 50% Fibo which was just above BRN ( Dotted line on the right)

I wish I hadn't started looking at Blues Fibo and Hour box posts

Anyway, after trading my usual way - channel and horizontals and Zeppelins

I thought I would stick on Blues Fibo - after finishing my session just now. Well, look at the 50 Fibo ( Dotted line) and price bounce off the bottom of the hourly box !
I had been long earlier but if one had only relied on the box and fibo you can see the 50 and pre open 15 minute levels above and below the 50 Fibo and what I call a TT Zeppelin
Price broke them moving from below ( from the bottom of the hourly box) and passed through the open ( Dashed line) to 4086 ( first resistance -15 minute line drawn pre open)
That's a few pips to keep the less greedy soul very happy today.
Back tomorrow.
This is only my opinion on Fibo and the hourly box so I welcome any correction or comment ?

{quote} Hi Blue, Details, and a post of my v2_00 of P4L BoxFibo.mq4 is posted here. Functionally, apart from the On/Off button I added, it will mostly appear the same as what you already have, but as I described, there were a number of other bugs that I identified; plus the performance of my version is much improved. For typical market conditions, you won't usually notice when an indicator takes 1000 microseconds ( = 1ms) for its calculations, but in your old version, this...
In my source, I accidentally left the internal var 'debugmicro' as 'TRUE' which causes excessive Prints to the Experts->Log output.

In the same location as before, see my updated v2_01 of P4L BoxFibo.mq4 posted here.

Thanks so much Kent !!!! I've been running this for the last 6 hours or so....and has worked beautifully... Much less intrusive on the CPU... Great work.

Will update you if I notice any glitches but so far so good..and I will update to the new version..

Great opportunities again today with the 50% level.

I know some others here are already using this and so may I say a collective thank you for your contributions to the FF community ! This is such a great tool...

Sincerely
Kevin

A quick follow-up to the fib discussion, here is my work last night and this morning on the EA (the majors were rebounding during this timeframe but I focused on the EA breakout). The EA offered a good entry with small risk, that retraced two more times for additional fib entries (there were additional entries a few candles after each fib strike, too). The fib strikes/retracements are programmed into bank traders and their systems, so once you see them presenting on the charts, they are really good places to start your day (or your evening, depending on where you live).

Good trading!

{quote} Has happened before when FF changed the source of the news file. I have messaged Mladen, so waiting for a response. The FXSSI News Indicator is still working ; {file} Found a better one than the above one : {file} {image} Sorry, just noticed pdf is in Russian, but the indicator is in english, so should be able to navigate the settings. {image}
I am not having any trouble with the 30-Nov-2021 'News reader.ex4' downloaded from mladen's thread.

It downloads news file(s) into the Open_Data_Folder -> MQL4/Files/ folder.
If you add it to a chart, change TF's, click on a button (such as the"||" icon that displays the vertical news lines), then it also creates additional file(s) starting with "nr-" You could quit MT4, delete these files, and restart MT4. If not already added to a chart, do so. See if that works.

Deleting all these files did the trick, I must have found over 30 of these files in that folder !!!

Daily process perhaps, here's the bigger picture 50% on an hourly over a few days.

I love all the charts posted folks, keep 'em coming.
This gives new traders & viewers a fuller perspective of how lots of people will look at their own charts. Which can only be very helpful imo.



Tomorrow the new BoJ Governor will printout a Monetary Policy Statement & Outlook.
The timing at this point is tentative (of course). Luckily no one close to the source will be getting their own trades on in advance (just joking BoJ )

Hopefully we will get some clue as to the release time event by early tomorrow


Business in the meantime was as usual with the GJ yesterday imo.

Exactly Lou.

And here's a chart from three years back.
These are continual Market Mechanics which are replayed over & over imo.
The trap for traders is when the Larger Market moves itself on (fundamentally?) from one "playground" to another (ie a 300+ pips move) and we get left behind.
We musn't get stuck trading in the OLD playgound imho (ie caught in a grinder), move on to where the market has re-established itself, and starts Vs again.
All the best
Pete

Weekly high/low/50%

To whom it may concern
About indicator
But don't give special meaning to this
Just fancy line that will react anywhere if you draw line sooner or later
I just use it as weekly separator

Blue zone is only sell zone to the target. What do you think? Can you profit from it? Grid trading? Waiting patiently till the target?
This is the fact same as gravitation. Rule of thumb, rule of FX
