{quote} EA is an old favourite of mine on M15 which im relooking at. Used to be great for trends within a big range and few surprises. I had a m15 renko strategy that worked so well it was boring, about 10 years ago. markets change.
I used to trade EA and GA not really sure why I stopped but they look good at the moment.

an EY long trade. My futures account got busted as I lost 2k just now. Any way I have cancelled the subscription which is due on Monday. Last evening I had some problems with my laptop as I could not get it charged. Im using a different laptop now but the hassle I went through to get the platforms sorted out long and tiresome. I now am unable to install the pips counter and a couple or more indicators,so be it. All my information is on my other laptop and I reckon the charging port needs changing, it's only 2 years old. I am using an older laptop atm
EDit: forgot to say the chart shown is on MT4. I was talking about MT5 above

Oh no what a rotten day you had! Sorry to hear that Eric, both about the account and the laptop. Hope you can get it fixed ok. Such a pain when technology goes wrong.

This is exactly the kind of space I was hoping to find on here. Respect for starting something that cuts through the ego stuff.
I’ve been experimenting with scalping + some NY session reversals recently, and one thing that helped me a lot wasn’t even a strategy it was realizing that where I trade (broker or prop firm) plays a big role in my results.
I’m all for different setups and indicators, but sometimes just getting the right conditions (like spreads on my pair or not getting restricted during news) made more difference than tweaking entries.
Looking forward to learning from everyone here I’ll drop some charts soon.
