{quote} so far for today AU +7pips EU pending UJ first trade -7pips second trade +10.5pips GU no trade GJ no trade EJ no trade AJ no trade total = 10.5pips i reopen again the UJ at the same price point but , the TP add more 50% as the first page mention anyone using the second trade method? it is correct to use second trade method ?
Well done cavenlee92! The way I do the re-entries is, if PA comes back to at least my SL then I consider this as a legible re-entry - otherwise it may dance around the entry. I do not add / change my original settings. Its up to you what you wish to do [the original post by swilliam states that this is still under testing] but please lets us know what is working for you. Thanks!

{quote} Hi Reeeen4, thank you so much for the information. You are getting incredible results! I really admire the way you are thinking and applying your analysis, well done!
Thanks griffinssoul!

I have had mixed sucess so far today.

EA - 15pip (I was trying out different TP & SL) might have been a bad day to try since it looks like EA is possibly changing direction or in a retracement.
NU -7
UJ +15
AU +7

So I'm pretty much where I started at the beggining of today. LOL oh well no loss so that's ok. The day is still young though and the others look pretty hopeful!
Learning is all about about asking the right questions!

I believe this is also because of the deception of the Tokyo session. When you win big its because almost everything wins, so it makes it look better than just winning 60-70%. [I could have told you NU was looking bad and AU good from the probabilities. But this needs more work.] What are your stats telling you about the Asian session?

EU & UChf both looking good, very slow but steady. I had 31% prob on both before trigger [which means I would have a tighter SL strategy in place? AU with higher prob (51%) would have been good for a runner (+26pips)]. I'm tied of calculating the math by hand

EG coming up but I'm taking a pass ; over-extended and low prob (34%)... actually its looking good around 5pips... got to around 7pips.. ok, can we put that down to the (non-Red) news?

MM is up to you cavenlee92.

EDT: I am very conservative, no martingale type systems, no chasing trades etc (IMO accounts are quickly lost this way)...

London open was looking terrible (typically, PA was hovering around entries unconvincingly) and there was absolutely nothing happening at the US open - weird stuff.

Ok, once again we get this weird phenomena were we have Harami type patterns. NU(shooting star), AU(doji), UJ(dragon fly) have all changed to MWRG or MWGR types (from MWRR or MWGG). All far from entries.

GJ & EJ (MWRR's) are online and looking good... (all other majors that I can see are No Trade)

EDT: following reeeen4 I tried 15pips for both GJ & EJ : GJ -15pips and EJ +15pips = nothing!

The well is dry... (there use to be so many trades!)

GU & EJ looks like they would have worked...

GJ & AU online and looking ok

NU needs to run up hard to make it to the entry...

Wonderful results cavenlee92. Keep going! Yes, all trading days except first week of 1M and each Mon. Since there are so few trades I would suggest trading everything I could at this stage and follow reeeen4.

With everyone's help and contributions this has developed into a great little strategy - its quiet fundamental and self-governing in a lot of ways.

AU is a MWRG trade which implies it is far from entry... it may trigger later in the LO?

EDT: actually all the opens look very close... (see chart, 1D TF)

Hi Traders, just a quick update... recently got MT4 and started investigating Custom indi's, Scripts, EA's etc. I have now developed a simple indi that I will be using to quickly assess a trade. A big thanks to Mr Bilal Haider (https://www.youtube.com/user/MQLprogrammingtuts/) for making available his wonderful lessons on MQL4 programming and the MQL4 forum. I also hope to make a script (I think or EA?) to quickly drop in an order should the indi give a positive signal and all looks good. This would save a lot of time, time you can free up for analysis etc. [I also wanted the indi to tell me if this was the 2nd, 3rd etc trade. Also, a moving probability of success from previous trades etc. The pips from the trigger value relative to the ATR value etc.]. Some other things come to mind like having an array of different SL strategies etc. Cool! Side note; happy to upload this for further development and testing but I'm not sure if that is permitted?

See chart example ...

Thanks zalbu. I'm wanting permission from Swilliam's [thread leader] before uploading as there is already an indi on page [1]. However, the indi on page [1] is commercial (I believe), cannot be altered and does not fully meet our needs. So there may be good motivation for developing our own.

If I receive permission perhaps it can be uploaded to page[1] - I'm not sure about the protocol here.
