Warning: if you are new to forex, I strongly recommend that you don't trade your live account during NFP Week.

Guys ... said this last month as well. If I remember to, I will say this every month.

Disregard the times (they are New Zealand) ... look at the forex factory calendar in your own timezone.

NFP ... Non Farm Payroll (Non Farm Employment) is one of the biggest news events every month. It is very common to have 'choppy' unpredictable price action during the first week of each month until this news event is over.

I lost a few % of my account yesterday (before gaining an extra 3%) due to this choppy price action ... in other words ... this is very very difficult price action to trade

Five years ago, I blew my first 10K account during a news week just like this one. Don't let yourself become the next victim

Best to look at the video on the fractal breakout strategy
Hi Stratman I have watched the video and from my understanding of it the dotted SR lines are on the current timeframe say the 15m as this the chart Im using and the whole SR lines are for the other time frames. Please confirm if that is correct??

How do I chnage the color of the complet SR line to blue as you have in your video as its much easier to see than the gray- are you able to post your templet please

thanks

Totaly agree with your views. Some currency pairs are range bound with very little movement.
Yesterday I took me practically the full day to increase my demo acount by 3% and one wrong move and I lost 2.5% in 15mins. Informatively my demo account is small and inline with my live account, therefore, I trade the demo account as if it is real money.
Now waiting for London Open to see some more movement.
Cheers.

The entry for me was based on the 1&5 min DB red indicators along with the
stochastic indicator that started to turn down, finding the stochastic indi a great indi however feel following the DB indicators is uppermost

The solid lines are the levels of the most recent swing high and swing low (fractals) of all timeframes that you wish to monitor.

If you turn the dotted lines on, dots are drawn from ALL swing highs and swing lows on that individual timeframe. The lines end when that swing high or swing low is broken by another.

The color of the solid lines can be changed via the setting 'pw.system.SRLineColor' ... near the top of the settings list

I have opened a skype group to chat in real time. If you own the dashboard, contact me on skype 'stratman_fx' to be added. You can chat to each other and share dashboard trading insights.

Please only instant message as this creates a history for those that are asleep ie everyone can keep up with current conversation.

I would like to have some of you contactable in realtime for beta testing bug fixes of the dash.

cheers

Nice one Ive also been getting good success with using the DB when all lights agree on M1 an M5, and also looking at getting some trades on when M1, M5 & M15 all light up in the same direction as per THV, hope stratman can make an alert for this type of trades as soon as he has the opportunity

stratman, is "stratman " and stratman_fx the same name to use to go on Skype with members owning the DB??
I ask this because when doing a search for your name with the underscore Skype tells me that I have already added you..

Hello, Stratman.

One question about using your dashboard with THV entries: do you wait until all M1, M5 and M5 lamps are in agreement? Or is M1 and M5 enough to open a position on M1 timeframe? Thx!
