H1 4 candle BO trade short
Hi LG, I am a little by your breakout lines as they don't appear (to me) to be marking the HH and LL of the 1st 4 candles as stated in post 1.?
My chart looks like this:

Steve,
I do not remember where I found this indi, but it draws trendlines nicely (which I cannot do to save my life). See if you can use it in your EA. If you CAN use it the EA can be on fully auto mode.

p.s. My apologies. I found it on your FTLR thread.

One of the things that I've noticed while demoing the 3-Tap trades is that there are trades every day, and that it can be quite time consuming to watch for all of them.

I decided that I am going to try to do all of my 3-Tap trading 9 pm EST Wednesday night through 2 pm EST on Thursday. It's a much more manageable time for me. Besides, it seems like there are a lot of trades in that time frame.

I must admit that my trading style is not "pure", as I am working on creating a hybridized method between LG's style and David486's that is profitable and suits my personality.

This week I think that I over learned my lessons from last week when 7 of my 9 trades reached their profit target. Last week, my last trade was 50% of the way to its profit target before it reversed and hit my SL.

This week I was far too determined to not let a winner become a loser. So much so, that I did not allow my trades to have any breathing room. 6 of 10 trades were profitable this week. At least, 2 of my 4 losses would have been profitable had I not become too impatient.

Nonetheless, I still made 75 pips demoing 3 Tap trades. Next week, I am going to include the H1 4 Candle breakout trades.

I am going to keep working at it, until I finalizing my take on this system before going live.

LG, Steve, and others thanks for all the great analysis and feedback.

My chart looks like this:
Your support line (bottom line) is off, needs to be moved up to the body, not the tail of the LL of the first four candles. Your resistence line (top line) is a little off too. Move it down to the HH body, not tail of the same 4 candles.

Actually, there were three beautiful H4 3 tap trade set-ups on that pair this week. Don't worry about missing a trade, May, there will be many more that you will not miss. Just keep finding the trades, as that helps train the eye.

Yes, I noticed that this trade was only good for a short time. There will be many more good trades.

Hi LG, yeah I thought that might be the problem. Hope u don't mind me suggesting that u edit your post on page 1 to reflect that it is the body of the candle. It just says HH/LL of candles which I think most ppl would take to include wicks. Thanks for the clarification

It's not really an EA..it's just an indicator that shows us all TFs at a glance. Not sure why Steve calls it an EA. Still need to confirm direction visually for yourself before trading.
