Quoting 1pipperhour
Was waiting this test on 5 min at dpp and .4192 trigger line. But still totally missed it (do not leave your computer ever when trading intraday). It was so fcuking easy set up and trade. Damn you EU. Second day it is pissing into my face and laughing.
Heheee, weakness all over the place on 5 min. It's coming back to give me a second chance

EU hit and bounced down from yesterday's VPOC at 4212... Poor EU data and US member Fisher speaking now...

Agreed, seems to have just died. Narrow spread, hardly any volume. On to EU

I missed this while driving to work... We got a nice ND with it's high right at the trigger level... Could've grabbed a few safe pips.

One step ahead again, I was going to ask later on whether that ND could have been taken or not!

It was a nice low risk set-up... could've gotten in with a nice tight SL and gotten an easy 1:1 and actually better... could've grabbed 25 or so pips with less than that risked. I would have probably used the trigger level plus 5 pips for SL since the ND was so nicely placed.

Edit... now let's see if the come up a little to test yeterday's low for further downside or if they take it up from here. No safe longs for me until we get back above that 3608 trigger.

Good to know, thanks for confirming. As you're aware, i'm still getting used to these triggers. As the trigger was from a down bar with high volume i'm programmed to look for longs. I saw the ND at 10:10 and 10:35 GMT and wondered. Something to blog about!

Triggers are just about the only thing I trade (other than low volume retraces in a confirmed trend)... always looking for tests, ND's etc... off the high volume triggers or swing highs, lows etc (per my trigger and tests posts)...

You need to be open minded with triggers... if price moves up away and then comes back down the yes we start looking for a test / NS at the trigger... as soon as we get below the trigger then we need to put on our bear caps and see if it gets tested from below...

Once again, valid insight, thanks!

So EU at the moment is printing some pretty high volume down bars on the 5min, my current trigger is at 1.4154. If it breaks below this area and comes back up on ND we potentially have a good set up for short. Break above and back to test is a long. Looks as though we've had a failed test already though.

Hey guys,

One of my good friends Chief1Oar made the tweeks to Hidden gap for me!!!! If you started to program it thanks for your time, but I have it already!!!!

Sorry to ask again.:-( But I do not program and I am in need of a volume indicator that alarms at the close of a climax bar. I would love to have Hidden Gaps Volume bar but am willing to take Better volume if someone has it..

Thanks for your help...

Hey guys,

Was woundering if one of you guys could program Hidden gap volume to alarm when the climax bars close on the charts. I would do it but I have no programing skills!!! Thanks for your help!!!!

EU trigger for me is at 4170... we may be seeing stoping volume / 2 bar reversal forming... downbar , followed by upbar on increased vol... Would have liked the upbar to have closed higher in the downbars range. Still just watching.
