this ... the time thing...has been asked time and again.Not just on this thread...its always a huge problem!
I spreadbet so dont use the normal platforms...so all I did is backtest what i understood on my platform and found what worked.- yep takes effort...sorry for the sarcs
frankly not sure time is that critical anyway.
all you are doing with the 4hr box is making sure that when a move is made it is significant and not just noise/stop hunting.thats why you have the buffer. Test and alter the buffer and you have a system that works .
so you miss 10 or 20 pips...gbp/yen is so volitile I dont care that i miss a few pips so long as my win/loss ratio is good
my point
never mind copying exactly someone else...take the idea ...find what works ...adaptfor you and start making money.
