Ah, sorry, misunderstood your question.

I dont think you will find a consistent approach.

Most I have seen use NY 5pm. There is more volume in the london session, so not sure why. Some seem to use midnight to midnight in either NY (gmt-5) or London time (gmt+0). I dont speak Japanese so this is just a guess, but I imagine that Tokyo is also used by Japanese traders.

I've also seen people with rolling pivots (ie, calculated for each session). That seems a bit like just painting as many bars onto a chart that you can, then claiming to be a...
Thanks for the input Joel,

The NY close seems ok from what I've seen.

And as far as Kangeroo's go I used to hop up the hills with them as a kid on holidays in the Grampians!!!

Now I haven't eaten one, but I haven't been attacked by one either!

Dave.

Is a roo good eatin?
A bit game-y, but not too strong. Super low fat (~2%) and high protein though. Also more expensive than steak.

Better than crocodile, which tastes like weird chicken.
Emu, despite being more like a chicken, tastes like ham.

Someone offered me snake (cobra?) and spider meat on holiday, but I declined.

Just that you can view all four 4hr tf all in accucharts... you can offset any tf by any amount...
but it's not quite as user friendly as mt4 and it doesn't offer anything but currencies (to my knowledge).

similar to MT4 server files?

Thanks Joel,
I don't have a problem with my charts, in fact I think that they are great.
I get 5 bars making a week with no half days anywhere.

The only query I have is the time to calculate the daily pivots, as these will change depending on the time calculated.
And if the 'Big Boys' at the banks use them I would think I was wasting my time with them if they weren't at the same levels.

Again please tell if I am wrong about this
Thanks again,
Dave.
I made this a few weeks ago for all the pairs I trade to get a feel when the biggest moves happen and try and trade around that time. I don't know if it will help but here it is...

It's the average range of hourly bars from the past year. The sessions are in line with my MT4 demo which is GMT(+2).

So I've been a proponet of DIY (do it yourself) - dig, study, practice, read, etc . . not asking a whole lot o questions. I am currently trying to accept a couple of challenges
1) 3 months consecutive profitables
2) 4 bullets (trades)

Gee whataya know postponed success at both. (rather than saying failed at both) sort of an inside joke - but I like it.

Is there analysis paralysis in this biz? I'll give you my for example - hope I get some feedback.

New York is GMT-5....
*edit* it is ridiculous that metatrader cant handle custom time offsets. It isnt 1836 anymore.
i think it's more like 'doesnt want'.

Hey there Ryan,
Thanks for the tip. Although I kind of know what you mean.
ie. going short on what was a long trade.
I am not sure what it means to "fade your long"
I have my own thoughts from reading this, but they are probably not quite right!
If it's not too much trouble could you please give a brief explanation?
Thanks,
Dave.

If I fade your trade I take the other side, if you go long I go short...



What Does Fade Mean?
1. A contrarian investment strategy used to trade against the prevailing trend. "Fading the market" is typically very high risk, requiring the trader to have a high risk tolerance. A fade trader would sell when a price is rising and buy when it's falling. Also known as "fading".

I bet some ppl have more shit on a chart then that LOL. I know I used to have some charts that made everyone think I was the best trader ever. Problem is I was still broke. If it does not follow trend and does not help me make money it's gone.

Now when I said I had an idea of what you meant..........let me correct myself and say I had NO IDEA !!!!!!!![edited for public viewing]
Thanks for clearing that up for me.
You could probably make a lot of money by doing just the opposite to me!
Sometimes it's like I can place a pivot line on the chart and just make the market turn!!!!!!
Like magic, I know.
Only trouble is, those pivot lines are my orders!!!
