Re Sunday evening gaps and broker feeds. My ProRealTime feed showed a gap on EURUSD of around 30 pips opening at 1.3193 at the UK 10:00pm open. My OANDA feed showed no gap, but at least an hours trading down leading up to 10:00pm. Does that mean the ProRealTime feed gap is crap?

Oanda doesnt close so it often doesnt gap like the other brokers. the gaps are still valid

Thank you! I had a limit trade set up on Friday long at 1.3190 anyway which triggered as I also trade pullbacks to closes on D1 swing highs/lows, so am now in long. Hope the gap closes :0)

Had to post this USDJPY trade I have been watching since posted last week - to the pip winner! Limit entry short 81.19, SL just above prev H1 low: 81.30, Exit @ 81 for a 2:1 RR trade - wish they were all as nice!

Well done on that one jobber - had it marked up but the retest was not rounded enough for my liking. However I got a winner on AU retest overnight - it came within 4 pips of my stop but turned out a winner - probably because I was sleeping and did not intervene!! Maybe a policy of no intervention is best for me.

Hello everyone,

I've been reading this thread from the beginning and have not got all the way through yet, however, I just want to check I'm getting along the right lines. Is the following chart something you would consider valid?

Many thanks.
