I too live in the EST. I used to get up at 2AM as well, which is when the euro market opens. I found that setting alarms (above/below) the market is the way to go. But it you must get up, 3AM is better, giving the market another hour to show it's hand. Also working best for me is finding a data feed where the bars end at 3am, 7am, 11am, 3pm, etc...
DislikedHello Dear Ryanmcd, well I do understand your frustration. I have miss all trades also. I live in Est time and wake up last night at 01:55am to see setup on Euro for the 02:00 am candle (mig chart) and didn't saw any clear signal to go short or long.
Well! I am still not strong as Phillip and did not have recognized the round top on price on the 4H chart of the Euro and eventhough MACD gaves a signal, I have not taken it.
Good point, contrary to the past, I have not jump on a trade later just because I have miss a previous one. So, improvment on this side
Great for all who great pips today.
Will continue practice patience to get the next high porbability setup
Sincerely
ShreemIgnored
