Not having much luck with breakouts lately. Not following through in many cases.

Everytime I enter, they just turn the other way!

Any advise?
I agree, this has been a more difficult week for BOs as the market seems to be ranging. Also few 3 Taps. Most of my good trades have been
ZC and channel trading because of the up and down PA this week.

Try moving to a larger TF for BOS...like H4 or daily. Trade the same way you would a H1 BO. They require more patience, but are more conservative.

This hasn't been a good week for me either on BO and 3Tap trades.

Thanks Lawgirl, looks like I'll just write this week off.

I'll try out the higher time frame as suggested.

Always next week.

I'm not understanding, I guess...but can't you just click on the TF you want at the top of your platform?

Notice that the there is little confirmation of direction on the indicator at this point. It is rare that by the end of the trading week at least 3 TFs are not in agreement, but they are not. It's just the nature of the market. Ranging across the board.

I have 4 x pairs on one screen, all set to the daily timeframe. I use profiles feature of MT4 to have 4 x pairs per profile and use crtl + f5 to move to each new lot of 4 pairs on one screen.

It would be nice to change all pair windows on the one screen to a different timeframe, all at once. Like a keycommand...

Saw this under the Calendar - UK banks will be closed in observance of the Royal Wedding. That's probably why.

If you have a large number of charts that you want to review at different time frames have you considered creating seperate "Profiles" for the time frames that you want? For Example, I have a profile for 'Hour' charts and a profile for "4Hour" Charts and a profile for "Daily". I find that this gives me a quicker way to switch between these timeframes for all the charts I have set up.

Hey Zaq, Just load "Lawgirls trend display v1.02" and under the inputs tab double click the value of the show current pair only variable and change it to false, then click ok.
