{quote} I try to trade away from DOL too. My Open Line I consider the open of Tokyo. Those 2 setups you post are away from DOL. TMS is trend trading - which means we trade the continuation of the trend. You don't need to catch the whole move to take profits - that involves "picking tops and bottoms" and requires crystal ball type abenomics aka coin flips. Both your trades blew past the DOL - Once trend is clear (backtest so you build confidence in your entry decisions), especially in the London Session, it will continue for 3-5 bars before consolidation...
thanks,i'l have to backtest more, what about HOD lines (yday low and highs), i notice how those lines can also act as sup/res

I suggest you read Emmanuel's posts on S/R lines and the HOD's you mention, he speaks extensively on them and how you should treat them.

I found that when YH YL are around confluence or consolidation lines, price tends to hang up there. When PA is strong and these lines are not confluent with stronger PA and especially during London, price goes right trough them.

Here is a ss of the EA this week: There have been 4 TMS setups during London on the H1 TF, all of them away from DOL. Depending how many pips you need per week, this pair alone would have bagged 100 pips without stress, just taing the 2 most conservative entries.

Again read Emmanuel posts.....

[ cave manager info] 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. For who uses CAVEMANAGER help thanks the HL candle...

You should not be using this Trail_By_Prev_Candle HL on M15 chart because your trades will be stopped out very easily.
If your initial Sl is -50pips, the set to activate this feature when price move 50pips. This way, you would have taken 2 exits +25pips and +50pips, and let the remaining Pos run till it get stopped out when market consolidate or reverses.

Best to use this feature on H1 chart and DO NOT change your chart TF when CM is active and running with open trades.

You can also use this feature on H4 and D1 chart trading but I prefer to move my stops manually on H4 and D1. You have time to do this manually at every new candle open.

{quote} MAs is not holy grail. We just use them to see what the market does when near to these MAs. We always look the Price Action seen with the price bar and APB candles, and we look at the price momentum what the TDI Green, Red and Yellow show us.

Normally, it is 60% of the previous D ADR ...
But then , you also have to consider Price, its velocity, previous Structure H/L, previous day OHLC etc ...

Hello Zef,
I read BigEmm's posts.
In your charts H1:
in the moment when London Open, you wait London open candle (1H), when it closed?

Hi Trader MT4,

Those were not trades that I dook, those were just examples showing the poster on how PA moves during London and how, in 70% of times, if it starts to move with nice sized candles, it will generally go 100+ pips in that direction.
I can't explain in a post what makes me enter on a good or a bad entry - you should study posts of Emmanuel, Phx62, Snarlyjack and other senior members to get the "feel" of their PA analysis. I promise you will not regret it. The amount of information in the posts of the posters named above is more applied PA than you will ever learn in a school.
Best regards, Zef

I had 2 other TMS Breakevens on GA (whipsaws killing a lot of profit on this pair)...still struggling to find a magic number for the GA.

London will offer every single week 2-3 70+pip trades for EA and GA, and probably other majors as well - I don't know, I don't watch other pairs.

If you backtest PA around London Open, you will see very clear what will precede in 70% of cases a 100+pip move - it's either a Tokyo breakout, a PCRF, or a double top / double bottom formation.
If at any of those PA setups I see a TDI cross, I will enter that setup without even being worried.
Best regards, Zef
