Lawgirl,

Do you look for H1 4C BO setups later in the day or after the NY close for an Asian move? Like this example below. This is at 1:40PM CST so I'm not looking for any kind of move out of this range until near the Asian session.


Look for a H1 4C BO any time after the close of the 4th H1 candle into the start of your broker's new trading day. That means from 6:00 p.m. PST to 6:00 p.m. PST the next day for me....because my broker's new day starts at 2:00 p.m. PST....but each trader has to determine their own broker's start time.

I don't think I can explain this any more......

TIME is such fun to explain

Speaking of which, following on from the comment about 4 H breakouts in London time, and trying to do some basic back testing, the idea came to me - it would be great if the Indicator posted before "Daily Line Boxes OC" could display extra lines above and below the extended hours.

I was thinking of showing an ENTRY 10 pips from the High or Low, and then a Take Profit of 10 pips (or your choice setting)

Hope the chart shows what I mean; any coders on this thread?

NZDUSD touched .7526. I hope you didn't go short according to your chart setup.
Out with +46 pips. Cheers

I understand that part, but I mean after you've made a successful trade, do you look for a range or consolidation "again" later in the day in an attempt to place another trade on the same pair.

LG will trade any CBO's (consolidation) as evidenced by her posts ie she has posted about currently watching USDJPY a couple of times in the last week. Doesn't matter if the CBO pair has already had a H1 4CBO. Hope that helps.

Good trading.. no, didn't go short, as there was never a good entry on the M15 chart. Entry rules keep us out of many losing trades.
