Entered 2 trades on the 4H shortly after 08:00 (gmt -6) -

A/$ - B @ 1.0690; SL 1.0637; TP 1.0745, looking to take 1/2 @1.0715

$/C - S @ 1.0017; SL 1.0052; TP .9965 & will look for 1/2 @ .9992

I hope this is another good morning and I see more opportunities on the 1H which I have yet to trade but definitely interested. p.

Good day today everyone, nice to see some cooperation going on too. Not everyone can be in the right place at the right time so if you see a trade, let everyone else know!

Hi Hugh, I thought that perhaps some members might like to see this spread sheet that I use to keep track of my HA daily candle patterns on an Excel spreadsheet. What I am trying to do is use this as an aid to identify swing/pivot points for multi-day trades. I screen some 12 currency pairs and 8 CFDs at a time. I have found that I look at so many charts every day that it is hard to keep them straight. But, I try to identify a few pairs with stronger trending characteristics to drill down on. This very simple approach keeps track of Daily HA candle colors and assigns a qualitative guesstimate as to strength of trend by using either Cap or lower case letters. The daily colors agree with the closed bar color for that day Similarly the weekly colored cells correspond to the closed weekly colored candle. The notes explain more detail, but others might like many other combos. Using this format I can quickly refresh my diminishing memory rather than reloading so many charts. At most it takes me 5 minutes to update every day, which I like a lot.

I know you've said that any time frame works with this strategy, I was just wondering what you've been using to be most profitable. From what it looks like it's the 4 hour? ANd I was also curious if you've using 2:1 risk reward using the previous low/high for hte stop?

So lets say your on the 5 minute chart and the previous low is 10 pips away, so you could put your tp at 20 pips and break even at 10? Just curious if you've ever used that money management for it.

Thanks for your time and keep up the great work!!
