Entered GU at 7:37 GMT, out at MS1 at 8:01 for +12p. Was this a valid one for anyone else? Cheers.
Yes, for me it was a vaild sell and a nice one - my figures show the total swing, so you extracted the maximum

Time I resumed watching EurJpy - these two trades would have given me my daily quota.....

Edit: and at 13:33 gmt there was a buy for a 32 pip upswing.....

Hi Islander - I've just found your thread (again) and it's great to see you trading the M1. Still using your long time favourite 34 ema and a work in progress with some of the Genesis stuff. Funny how things develop and change - I am now trading the Tokyo and Europe Opens, using M1 timeframe, and our old mate Vantage has gone the other way, to mainly daily analysis. More than one way to skin a cat.
Look forward to seeing some of your trades. Cheers.

GM - good to hear from you and yes, I'm still down in the weeds on the 1 min chart after trying range bars and tick charts with Medici. Now I have a totally objective system as you can see from the charts that I post in a couple of threads - like this from earlier
Regards

Good morning Islander. May I please ask, what made you hold on past MR1 & head for 3450? Cheers.

OK - I assume that you mean 134.50 .....and your pivots must be different to mine, as on that chart the blue dotted line at 134.36 is today's R2 level, based on the US close.

Earlier in another thread I posted this: "it seems that the overnight comments by the Japanese Finance Minister Aso concerning"excessive and one side currency moves"and that "it is important that Japan has intervention as an FX policy option" has helped push UsdJpy up towards its 100 level where a double sided no touch option goes off at todays NY cut" and so I was expecting UJ to push up towards its 100 level - which I did later, pulling EurJpy up to new highs at 134.61 - today's MR 3 level.....so I missed out on another dozen pips whilst I was trading cable's news.....

PS I should point out that the high where I exited had the TVI showing divergence after the highest 1m volume of the day

Thanks again. I meant R2 not MR1 (don't know where I got that from), I'm using the same pivot indi/ timezone so apologies there. So you held long as you expected more & exited a the whole number. Great stuff, thanks for the info, it's much appreciated. I was stalking EU/GU this morning but didn't take anything though there was a possibility of a GU long at 7:55 GMT that would have paid off (hindsight is no earner!) which I'm kicking myself over.

Here's another swing - I was late getting in - remember that I post the total swing for education and my actual trade may differ a little as I am trading five pairs.....I did take the exit....

EurUsd was falling into FO, so when UJ rolled over and started to fall it put it into harmony with € and so I sold EurJpy......looks like I banked a little early, but glad to do so at this range-bound time...

Thanks HF for your kind comments. As you correctly say, I have modified my charts and the Three Dragons that I developed in Sonic's thread by adding the MTF stochastics and Genesis Matrix. This has allowed me to write up a new set of trading rules that "take the strain" of short TF trading and allow totally subjective entries and slightly subjective exits, all of which I am demonstratig on my posted charts.

different exits - 1m TVI was showing +ve dvg after my banking of partials and the 38% retrace was all that was available - perhaps more after NYO 2

Hello,

I have been following your thread recently. I like very much what you are doing and it looks very good. I have some problems loading specific indicators like T3MA Dynamic envelope on range bars...everything hangs and not responding. Also T3 candles and T3MA Color.

A little help here will be appreciated.

Sorry I dont use range bars with MT4 - you are better going for the ProRealTime program which is the one Medici and I used for both for range bar and tick charts. Send me a PM if you need info on where to get it for free if you open an account....
