Hi there,

I know I am still having issues setting up the Indicators on my platform, but the general rule is this: set up your indicators to fall in 1 hour before the break out or opening time and one hour after the break out or opening time of the market you want to trade, making it a total of two hours.

This will fall in different time zones for people in other parts of the world. So the clue is not the specific time zone but what ever it is in your local time is irrelevant. Just follow 1 hr before and 1 hour after. So it could be CET, GMT,...
Thanks for the reply sharemaster, but i'm familiar with the timezones.. i am still confused as to trade off the NY open(which is 13:00-15:00 for me) or our brokers time 14:00-16:00.
First post on first page states draw lines at 14/16:00 just wanted to clarify.
as for the indicator, i downloaded it from the first post first page also, but here it is.

Eric.

Im in Central Europe(CE) - so
New York 7-9h
= CE 13-15h
= London 12-14h
= Kansas 6-8h

Your MT should show really 6-8h,
except if you have a CE broker (13-15h)...

Thank you!

Thank you everyone for helping out.. as I am really swamped with questions and pms. I'm only one person and doing the best I can.. I don't want anyone to think I'm ignoring them so please forgive me.. I never thought that this many people would be so interested. I only figured on 5-10 people but It's 10x that so please be patient we will get all this figured out before the start of next trading week... Thank you so much

Thank you for you contribution to the thread boophaty,
trying to demo and read the thread is challenging.
I am also interested in watching your live trades whenever you get that up and running.

The Chart is sort of okay but not best quality though. If the volume can be sorted then it will be great indeed.

Just watching and not understanding what you are doing on the chart with the Fibs is not encouraging. Hope the volume is sorted soon.

thanks Eric you are really doing alot for the trading community.

I really appreciate your efforts. It is almost midnight here in London and I am keen on watching you. I suppose a normal webinar platform will cost a lot to set up as that would have been another option.

Just my opinion. Thanks once more.

Hi boophaty,

Not sure if there is any other person watching that can also confirm that they too are having issues with the Volume. This will help to make sure that it not a local problem from my end as opposed to your end.

You never know, it may all be working okay but a second confirmation from another viewer would give you good confirmation.

So if any here is watching, can you please confirm what issues you are having if any.

Just my 2 cents as they say.

thanks

Hi boophaty, I'm new to this thread, but I'm unsure of what chart you're using for your trading room. Is it just the one that you've shared images of? Also, just to confirm, the time is 7am EST?

Hello

This is everything that I will be using on my charts for the EUR/USD 15m chart.. I also use fibs just to see points that price will bounce off of or break.. You don't have to use them, but I do..

Thanks for the indicators. Not sure fully how to use them though.
Plus the red rectangular box is probably not set to the correct time period on my charts as my charts reflect GMT. Do you chart reflect EST (New York time)? If so, then I think that may be the problem for me.

Thanks Boophaty. I love the idea of this strategy, especially as big money trades are trying to push prices in a direction at the open of the US session. Look forward to the live trading.
