Flag trading the trend

heres the same view from the 13 tick range bar

Same here, took that short, but bailed, while it was too slow. What i have seen, the moves in the good trades are pretty rapid, so no point to wait for too long.

yes I agree normal trading hrs 830 till 1130 sometimes on inventory day I extend it till 12 and really this is not forex it stays busy till 2 to 3pm but I am looking to capitalize between the above hrs to minimize my screen time and believe me theres plenty of action during those 3 hrs. if there are 20 trading days in a month and lets say we leave out Wednesday that 16 trading days. looking to get 40 to 50 ticks during that time can yield between 500 to 800 ticks per month trading 1 contract that 5000 to 8000

where's the guy who said we're not looking to make ticks we're looking to make money--lol

hahahaha most guys here trade forex have to use there lingo but I did include the $s also. In essence guys look to make 400 to 500 dollars a day

Yes, having 13range, can you post your chart?

you must be talking about 230 in the afternoon ny time I was referring to 1230

here's something else i've added in ... if haven't hit tp in 6 candles exit for be + 1 - here's an e.g. from 23rd jan 2015:

Harold, are you avoiding signals at pit open, 09:00 est?

Not really but i agree i would look to exit at 4 candles if i hadnt gone 13 ticks

locking in 20
