Still 10 minutes left, but possible IB's on G/U and U/J.
I only saw an IB on USD/JPY but not on GBP/USD. The IB indicator confirmed this.

Oanda showed an IB, but not on Spot Trader (MT4). Few pips off, but seem to have taken off.

I followed the DIBS rules, hence buy stop loss is at 92.71, the low of the previous candle.

That's correct Fumiryu. You want to put your stop loss a few pips below the Low of the IB.

If your confused with my30mar's way of trading the DIBS method I'm with you. lol I believe he uses the DIBS Opening time and the IB as turning point with this other methods. I think.

whaterever works to consistently make PIPS for my30 go for it.. Beyond the entry he has developed his own trade management strategy with multiple indies which allow guidance and assist his decision making process. Keep with whatever works for you my30... best to you. Jaroo are you still using 1 hour entrys on this method haven't seen you post much around here lately. Do you spend alot of time on your computer watching price action around the Dibs triggers or do you set your orders and go on to other stuff. The biggest problem i have is having to be at the tube for hours because it will cross up and down before it decides it will finally break out which takes alot of patience and waiting. Thoughts...comments..thanks

I've been using the DIBS method put not posting the trades here. I'm looking at different approaches to add to the set-up that should weed out some bad DIBS trades. The usual cast of confluences are in play: Higher Time Frame S/R levels, Price Action, overall trend on the 4 hour and daily, etc.

The key I believe is the Open of the Day time and getting to the "freetrade" as soon as possible and letting the trade play out. I'll start posting more of these trades on the thread.

Dear Thread,

In this month's and last month's Currency Trader Magazine, there are two articles that have statistically tested IB trades.

The December 2008 issue of Currency Trader magazine is ready to download

Risk is on everybody's mind these days, and the January issue of Active Trader (now on newsstands) features an interview with risk expert Ken Grant -- founder of Risk Resources and the former risk manager for SAC Capital and Tudor Investments. Grant, whose firm handles risk management for hedge funds and also numbers the Chicago Mercantile Exchange among its clients, had begun advising clients to reduce risk more than a year before the September-October massacre. As the crisis deepened this year he also sounded early warnings that the hedge-fund redemption process was still far from over -- a story that has come to the forefront of financial reporting in recent weeks. In the January issue, Grant offers his perspective on the nature of this historic financial panic and the challenges the markets face in the months to come.

Active Trader first interviewed Ken Grant in 2004. Through Dec. 31, 2008, you can download that interview as a PDF file for more than half off, or download "The Active Trader Interviews: Vol. 3" article collection, which includes this interview and 10 others, for more than 60% off.

As for my30, perhaps it's best he starts his own thread as his posts are confusing for anyone who is after "plain" DIBS.

Not all IBs are equal, as PC said, and I guess many people are looking for ways to filter the bad ones out. Each has his/her own approach.
