{quote} farhad, at that time when you took that first trade, you do not know if the market will breakout UPwards. Looking at the chart during the Tokyo session, I notice the previous D was very strong move down, so I was Sell bias but there was no sell setup during the first 5 hours of Tokyo session. I would normally mark the Tokyo 5H high low and wait for a setup to break this TOK5H High Low. You first trade entry was a breakout of TOK5H high and I trade that candle but with SL below the TOK5H Low. If I do not use the TOK5H method, and looking...

its not exactly clear on the chart where you shorted the G/U, but on your chart you have an indicator on the top right telling you that you are in an uptrend. so you have traded against both the H1 and D1 trend according to your own indicator. to maximise chances of success try not to trade against the prevailing trend

May I know where can I get your TDI indicator please? Thanks

2 trades for some pips, EU +20 and GU +12 , both taken with TDI confirmation

One thing can be improved tho, EU my entry wsas late almost 10 pips from ideal entry, so TP better to be set at +40, instead of +50 as I sat it, so manually closed

Still learning to take early entries from M15 when you have plan on H1

That's it, out of my final EA trade, came back up to the buy line and let me out for an 8 pip loss. I needed to be flat so deliberately pressed the button as I need to shut down, new job tomorrow means I won't be here in my daytime anymore, restricted to a few evenings again, might get a couple hour late london tomorrow eve, we will see. Been hectic trading this pair after my error yesterday and glad it's over with a small loss.
Trade well you lot

Trade explorers unlocked again now that fiasco's over if anyone wants to figure how I rescued that 200 pip downturn from yesterday

I would appreciate if someone could help me understand how cavemanager trailing stop works. I feel it confusing.
I would like to set my initial SL at some level (40 pips), for example. I wanted to use the following feature of CM.

Use_Trail_By_Candle_HL
This option supersedes all other trailing stops options regardless of how you have configured them to be. It is a way of trailing price by
moving the SL just behind the last close candle stick. There are 2 parameters that you need to configure for this option. First you need to
tell the EA when to become active by setting “Activate_After_Pips”. Once it is active, it will trail the last close candle by the number of
pips configured in “Pips_Behind_Candle_HL”.

I would appreciate if anyone could upload the image of the settings in CM for this feature. Please let me know if I am missing something.

Kindest Regards

I also got on this trade and got out with +17 around the time of the news. The setup was good IMO but I forgot about the red news (Draghi) and we got lucky I guess. Not so lucky on my EUCAD long trade - good setup but forgot about the red news (CAD NHPI m/m and USD Unemployment Claims) -40.

Sorry, bro, I don't use Cave Manager maybe someone else could help you.

@TheScorpS Good job but you also traded the news so you got lucky.

I have been testing this strategy using a tester software - the results are not good so far. I hope I'm doing it wrong.

I will post concrete examples and results soon. Again, I hope I'm doing something wrong.

Later!
