As long as your back and forward tests are positive you should be fine then

It's really quite easy for me, considering most of them are in-between setups, I only have to pay attention to the pairs that are at/near area's of interest, or manage existing trades.

Remember, I like to be in my trades for days/weeks/months. These opportunities don't come up every day.

when drawing trendlines on mt4 on a higher time frame do you adjust it on a lower time frame?

We are an hour and 20 minutes till open and there are some nice BIG gaps atm. Free Money!
Marc,
Gaps are interesting, but I haven't a clue how to safely trade them. Any tips or can you direct me where to look?

Gaps almost always close. In my experience they close within 4 hours for the most part. The bigger they are the better they are!

A/U Gap Trade closed @ +26. The current H4 candle pretty much closed the gap...although there still seems to be room on the M15 and M30 TF's.

Hi Marc..

Trust you had a good weekend. I have the same theory although my chart still seems to have some way to go to close the gap... ???

Everyones different but 25 pairs would be a bit of an information overload for me. I was trading 12 + pairs and found that my ability to make timely trade decisions was impaired, now I focus soley on 6. Something to ponder...

Erik,

What pairs do you focus on?

Hey Oz. My weekend wasn't long enough!

You're probably right that it will continue higher as my M30 and your H1 chart suggests but I am tending to follow the H4 and be conservative. Keep in mind that we also almost hit the D PP as well.

I'm going to let this gap run its course and get my MA's in order before looking for another setup.

Thanks, DPP noted. Nightmare of an election here.. could be no result for a couple of weeks apparently. Not much in the way of news this week could also see the AUD lower..

Yep, it's been now 5 from 5 there in 5 weeks - been a good bounce to grab some coin..strong zone. Also now ties in with the 100 SMA on the Daily.
