{quote} There's a rule telling to enter the 1st 00 of the hour ... You did on the 2nd 00 level ... Am I wrong ?

I did the same - second level 122.90 instead of 173.00, -10 pips.

Udine is there any reason why you didn't take the GJ trade at 172.90. You seem to have an extra human ability to selectively pick the winners?

I only wish, but nope, the distance was soo small between the close of the 1H and the 00 level, that I need to check the close of the 1H candle and then I had already crossed the 00 level. I was simply too late... otherwise I would have lost on that one ..

{quote} The trade was sucessfull I think the trade could reach 14 or 15 pips, but I've closed 8 pips. (I had made ​​wukar for 14 pips.) {image}
For the next hour, I think it would be interesting to monitor GBPUSD and GBPJPY, for shorts.

If you took the short at 137.800 then you would have won, stopped trading for that hour and therefore not entered at 137.700.
The best trade I ever made was my SIN for Jesus' RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Why no entry? I guess there is indeed the rule of entry only on the first cross of 00 in the hour?

Ha! Yes, even on my chart it opened too close to 172.90 but I have noticed for a long time that Udine will "accidentally" miss losing trades that I take by his rules. (He was not at the PC, or something else...) Maybe one day I will be as lucky as the Kung Fu master!

I will adjust Rule 2.

2. Entry ONLY the FIRST 00 level

rule 20. remains the same

20. only 1 trade per hour

I was going to trade EJ at London open, but price was hovering around 137.800 already and the hourly indicator was flashing red and green. Rule .17 kept me out of the trade. Was this the right choice? I know it did eventually move 10 pips in my favor. Would an pending order at 137.700 be a good idea?

one trade per hour, per pair brother...
800LV was the first for the hour.. anything after that is to be avoided.

Ok now my serious reply...

My GJ close at 172.903..

I already mentioned last week, that I want at least 1 pip between the close and the 00 level... go read up on it.. as i need the time to put on my pending orders...

I have no secrets, you of all people should know !!

So my dear friend, keep your cynicism out of this please

Udine.. your opinion..
speaking of not trading the franky fakey.. but we also see some good winners in it's period.. so what I did I traded but with much much more tighter stop.. meaning post entry I only look for forward movement anything less than that I bail... hard sl of 5 with visual sl of about 2-3..
so i took to trades today on franky for total lost of 5 pips on both.
is this something that we can exercise or add to the rules of 1st post maybe. I know there is plenty of opportunities post london and may not need the possible agonies of the franky.. but something to think about.. bcz if franky comes positive then with looking ahead at london with some $$ in the bag could give a lot flexibility and perhaps faster to reach the daily goal or have some extra money to play for more gain.
