Here is a snapshot of a formation, however, I do not believe it is the cream of the crop set up... per Udine's rules. {image}
I'm not sure this has anything to do with this thread.

I am new to this thread. Have read all posts. Very encouraging. This morning here in Japan, I took 5 pips EURJPY from 138.600, 138.500 and 138.400. Amazing. So simple. So stress-free. Lots of thanks to Udine and all others. Only thing that worries me... In case I am addicted to 5 pips profits and continue trading on and on...

Tks mathrav. I notice many guys are worried about large spreads. My spreads are EJ 0.7, GJ 1.2. It's GMO Click Securities. Due to very strict rules by Japanese financial authorities, though, only those with Japanese residency can open an account. What a shame!

I take that because you are trading using GMO, you are thus a resident of Japan. This may sound like a silly question, but I keep finding conflicting answers, what time does one in Japan consider the Tokyo FX market open (preferably in GMT or EST)? I have seen 22:00, 23:00, and 24:00 in my searches recently. And perhaps you could answer when Sydney opens? Again, I have seen both one and two hours prior to Tokyo, which makes for a number of possible combinations.

I have only ever traded the NY/London overlap, but with my schedule, its much more relaxing to trade during the Asian sessions so I am in the process of generating some statistics concerning trading during that time frame. Only problem is, I need to figure out when that time frame really is!

Thanks -

Heyyy same here! I waited for the Daily trend to show, then had two trades 1) Sell from .500 2)Sell from .400. I think key for tokyo session is to trade around 8-11am Tokyo time. After that no good movement, better to wait for London open.


Up +10 pips on Demo. XD

The answer is on the FF home page ... Just go to the page bottom and see the "Sessions" block.

There are brokers available to US residents that offer ECN pass through order executions (no Dealing Desk) and HEDGING that US brokers cannot offer. Many brokers offer free indies and junk you don't need to suck you in and relieve you of your hard earned cash. Every indie you need is offered here with excellent training and chart analysis free of charge. I personally prefer low commissions that fit my scalping style and allow me to know my cost in/out up front to figure into my stops. Just my style!

Your question is also my question. People at Japanese banks and securities companies traditionally start working shortly before 9 a.m., when the stock market opens. So, many traders regard 8 a.m., which is 2300 gmt, at the Tokyo forex open time. My MT4 chart , for its part, sets the Daily Open Time at 2200 GMT or 0700 Japan Time. So, I treat 2200 GMT as the Tokyo forex open time.

0 GMT is considered to be the Tokyo open.

Yes, that's also an idea for sure. Many banks and securities firms roll up thier shutters precisely at 09:00:00 local, not even one second earlier.

EU Comment;

IMO, it appears as though the MM's are accumulating longs and getting ready for a bullish run up during the LS with a bounce from the RWL that will offer some good trading opportunities and green pippin. I'm watching for a cross of the daily open and green H1/D1 candles. We'll see what they have in mind and the levels will show the way !

SL Hit, I think that during Asian Session if price moves 20 to 30 pips don't trade. Its better to wait for london open.
