{quote} Hi Gator. What platform is this?
Something I built to gather live data. The trade qualified. But I'm gathering statistics to see if it has an edge to wait for other things. It was a valid short. The ea only takes statistically the better trades. Do to past performance. I'm trying to see if too many trades are left on the table. For compounding sake taking a bunch of lower 75% trades, may be better than taking a few 95% trades.

the entry was 202.46, In this case s/l 15 pips. Tp open to exhaustion signs. .
tp can be negative, 8 pips or 200 pips.. its whenever pa starts to show signs of exhaustion.
I have been sleeping. This was the only trade I noticed developing today. I'm monitoring 28.
whatever is in blue is better, but it may not develop, orange is close.. green is look to pull the trigger. The ea decides what to do there. .

PA should be wakening.. Its not looking like its doing much.. Last night was a snoozer. Summer ranging looks to be the future.
This checks 28 pulses.. the majors are doing little.

All live.
The cj dropped 26 from entry. I only got 13. The ea decided to close.
A similar trade could occur today, but the ea sundown's before LC. Between 28 pairs there in over 100 decent trades per day. I try to limit them to the best ones.

I got a 2h cooldown period. so the 2 traded wont be available to me until the period ends. The entry trigger is dynamic. So it may not be the same entry as earlier. Any future entry may be well beyond the original. But likely less than 50 pips more. Because this works on a day trade too to a high win rate. I'm just running the scalper atm.

I turned this off, I forgot.. Live scalping is different from the back test to learn from.. cooldown is lesser in what I'm running.

Those ghost are negative now. 3 lost. It brought the day to -18.
The day ended for the ea, Those ghost are for simulation. They keep records like a live trade performs. Things you don't get in a back test.

The ghost are slightly negative now. Not a good day. But I have had worse.
No runners today.. 1 trade + 25.. thats the money when they have a few over 25+ . Thursday is the better day in history.
I don't trade the ea 2 hours before LC. This keeps counting as though its trading live.

not sure if itll break this neckline in h1, and the opening gaps maybe will close, its about 50pips from where it is to neckline, but current data on some crosses suggest its 50pips already against USD, if the straight opens and its a 100-200pip gap or continuous run then USD should drop more because under that breaks the mother support, and to the very low if it holds is between a 5-10% drop in USD, it has 5 days before mn close to support previous bearish engulf - u know silly news from either side will flip this easy

USD CAD and JPY opening slightly lower - USD at neckline support, CHF EUR GBP AUD NZD opened all up - some clues where the haven risks are going on peace news - CHF looks more the solid bullish open - AUD looks weighed down with its prev data numbers

I haven't checked oil. Just glancing at the kiwi strong, cad weak, and yen strong. oil may be falling some.

my kiwi formed the double bottom, suspected a while ago the turn but it needed 2 ingredients hawkish words from the bank and added risk on fuel, i dont think the TLs will do much but wouldnt be surprised, my index levels are quite extraordinary - EUR has been on the decline for some time now looks like around 2-3% to a strong zone below - intraday NZDCAD looks to be the most NZD bearish or corrective pair, but that combination is dangerous, NZD fueled with policy optimism, risk on and with CAD tied to oil risk on id favor CAD more - CAD seems to be taking a bid but why is it taking a bid? all i know is when risk is on AUD CAD and NZD should go higher, in certain situations CAD will not join a AUD and NZD rally or decline - maybe with CAD its more optimistic oil has now opened its possibility of stabilizing, could be a factor im not sure - another observation was that EUR and GBP both dropped on the "peace news so confirms a stronger true conviction risk on was or still involved here - gone quiet now waiting for next news comedy
