How many times do you have to ask the same question??? And how many times do we have to keep answering it for you??? - I replied to this as did many other back in post 813 on page 55 just 2 posts after you asked it for the second time. Try reading following posts after asking a question.

Hi.. if i may give my humble input with all due respect to the OP and others.. i would recommend to extend the bias time. go quart or half an hour post London open... post london open is where the show starts for eu, during franky move are not as reliable.. post london open is where pa direction gets set if it intends to move that day.. so your either stay safe with no trade or get in on the real direction.
..or on second recommendation, to use some sort of a STRENGTH measurement (other than what your currently using) for the original bias period to only take the clearly visible strong swings signals.
for eg., todays downward move in bias period from top to bottom is only 15 pips, that's just not enough of a momentum move to account for a possible direction or follow up.. if for example it was a 25 pips or so then with good look at the londi open, would probably give a better insight.. (this was just a quick observation from a live situation)

anyways, with this two or one or other your odds of success in my humble opinion will increase.

trade well everyone.

Trade ran smack into the daily pivot and reversed...SL hit. I don't like these 1 minute trades that are this close to the daily PP.

On to the next...
I had the same problem using a different strat. but it begs the question can any strategy be totally non discretional. Is that not why EA's rarely work (without unacceptable drawdowns/stop loss).

Like many systems if the trend or bias is strongly in the direction of your trade and you have a good r/r then this will be more reliable. Even the we might expect a bounce off PP.

Just my ramblings.

OK, so here is a little indicator I wrote this morning which takes care of drawing the lines every morning.

Please set the PreSessionOpenTime and PreSessionCloseTime to the Frankfurt/EURO and London session times of your time zones. This can also be used for other sessions.

It should reset 1 second after PreSessionCloseTime, if it doesn't just switch timeframes or reload the indicator.

Obviously I didn't do a lot of testing yet, but this looks pretty good. I am going to extend this indicator, currently I am including the Daily Range indicator so you can see targets for your orders.

Ideas/inspirations are welcome!

Does the indicator from post #835 not work for you?

OK, I didn't see that one, thanks for pointing me to it.

But, I'm trying to go somewhere else with my indi, I find it easier to weave my own code instead of working myself through somebody else's code.

Did you take the trade at 14.00? I know your indi did not show it as a signal but from my limited experience an early signal (once the market opens) is very strong even if Stochastic was over 80 before the Session opened (can we adjust the indi?) so I went for it (on Demo). I am at 5% profit at the moment.

Quoting iwjw
yep
but green changed to maroon and that's why my indi didn't show it
maybe one could widen the rules a little bit, because maroon is in the right direction (so skipping darkgreen)
but just saw that stoch was way below 50 on that maroon bar

i really think no indicator can make this a success except PA.

PA today: after finding clear double tops and a clear rejection of 1.2500, entered and exited accordingly. today = +15%.

forward testing: 4 losses and 7 wins

according to my chart both conditions didn't fit the rules
close of 14:00 candle had stoch below 50 and darkgreen macd followed be 2 more darkgreen bars (previous green bar was before 14:00)
I think that adjustable indi would lead to a different trading method. Once you allow to diverge from the rules it's getting something completly different

I say thanks to the Creator of this topic. I thought a lot and finish the work that will help me. Now I continue to test some time with the risk of 2%. Thank you all. I think that the last few days have given all the answers. Now the questions should not be! Time to work. Good luck!

Some contributors to this thread continue to baffle me.

Paulus has posted incredible live forward testing results.

And people are still saying it needs to be changed or tweaked or it's not working. What?

In honesty I hope that the system goes through another run of 4-5 straight losses. Why? Because then all the people looking for the holy grail can jump to another thread.

This thread is awesome in teaching two fundamental lessons: The need for good R:R, and the need to not over-trade.

Thank you Paulus for all your input and your incredible patience.

Look at Peter Es posts as well. Live with SL and TP.

So if SOMEONE ELSE posts live results FOR YOU then all doubt will be removed FOR YOU??

The only way you will remove all doubt is if you TEST IT YOURSELF.
