{quote} this happened because of the AUD red news i guess.. do you have any other trade results Landline?
Hi TFL

I don't need to pay much attention to news tbh (NFP and such like aside that is) I personally find it off putting, but it probably is important for 1 minute traders I guess.

My method takes time to mature as you can appreciate, but that's one of the reasons it appeals to me actually....it gives me breathing space, sleep time, and the capacity to trade a number of instruments applying the same strategy when the signlas occur.

As traders we know that if it's a boring strateg, then it's most likely to succeed, I think (hope as well) that' that is how my own approach pans out....so far the signs are very encouraging.

Back to your question, I have a number of trades currently in progress, no further results to post as yet, which isn't surprising given the t/fs I operate, and it takes a while, and could be several days before the cycles are complete....that's the boring bit I mentioned lol....patience in this method is key as usual.

I'll post a result as they come in.

Cheers

LL

{quote} Hi all In keeping with mers wishes, I've attached an AN chart on the 1hr tf. (For my method, there is no prime start time, and no pair preference, I rely on bisection...see previous charts for explanation.) The result in my case captured two orders before I closed out. I have several other pairs cooking at present on h4 applying same principal....very relaxing I like to tp after 4 boxes btw on my method, which means I keep control...most of the time there are at least 6 - 8 boxes on the t/fs that interest me, and I like to take the lions...

{quote} Is the supertrend indi repainting ?
Hi M

The simple answer is yes, which is precisely the reason we need a collision to occur with the boxes (as per my strategy at least).

I won't go into detail in respect of mers wishes, but will post results as and when they materialise

Cheers

{quote} I had a similar trade set up as well. i turned on MT4 a bit late today to find the red boxes already painted, so simply put in sell-limits at the same levels as the red boxes however i should note that if you are not constantly looking/ monitoring your charts you will miss the blue box appearance. On my charts i did bag some pips but i wish there could be a signal that goes off once the blue box has been painted. None the less it is a good system so far. I have put in a buy-limit around the area the first blue box appeared waiting for the...
Nice job Baba Gee......

Hi Landline,

I was not criticizing your post and I hope you will take it in a positive way.... I was asking whether this method works even when there is no red news... I am also going to check it from tomorrow anyway....

hi Master! what broker are you using? I have only 2 boxes on GlobalPrime. I wonder if the number of boxes affects the overall result.

Hi Mario,

Yes the number of boxes will certainly affect the overall result.

What setting do you currently have in your Quantum indi?

Mine is set @ 300 (but it gets changed due to personal preference)

325 is the standard as per the tpl from post #1

lower the number more boxes and the higher the number the less boxes.....

more boxes to TP = more money........ so box count really matters.

Lot sizing to a particular trade entry obviously makes a difference too.

I'm not using the same broker as you but I'd prefer not to get into broker discussion in this thread.

PM me if you like and I hope I answered your question.

Of course, the number of boxes influences the results because thats whats you are trading - the boxes.

Hi TFL

It's no prob, I didn't take ur question as a criticism in any sense at all.

Regarding the red news though, as I said before, I personally do not factor it into my trading, for me it's just another potential system that can be easily over-thought, and in any case, news is arbitrary in terms of strength, NFP aside of course, but then that too is also a temporary movement usually, and rarely acts as a catalyst for full blown reversal for example.

I do accept however, that small t/f trading will blow a few people away, but that's just another plus for trading the higher t/fs instead in my book at least.

But each to their own as I've said before lol

On a side note, whilst I'm posting, I can imagine a number of traders that have successfully traded the 1 min box system as per mers rules, are thinking to themselves, ok we've had a good couple of days, when's the "biggie" gonna occur lol. It is like a volcano, you know it's gonna happen at some point, resulting in mega dd....but when! lol

Cheers mate

Mastermind, i feel as if you are trading right next to me. I did see that but i also sat it out and also looking at Gold as well. Since i'm in GMT+2 i am also looking at the EurUsd which i am currently in.

So, still think news events hurt??? 13 trades taken, all in profit. Thank you GBP Construction PMI! Just remember, they all don't work out like this every time. Trade 1= +24 pips Trade 2= +23 pips Trade 3= +26 pips Trade 4= +25 pips Trade 5= +27 pips Trade 6= +27 pips Trade 7= +31 pips Trade 8= +29 pips Trade 9= +37 pips Trade 10= +37 pips Trade 11= +38 pips Trade 12= +41 pips Trade 13= +86 pips (+43 pips X .02 lots) Total= +451 pips (By the way, if your keeping track since post 1, that's +948 pips in the last 5 trading days)...
News Events Create Volatility, it's always FUN to be on the right side. HAHA! It won't hurt at all as long as you trade 10-15mns after the News....

Congrats on them Pips Mate!

Btw, I am very glad that everybody is seeing the beauty of your System!!! Keep it up!

Sitting it out was an interesting decision!

But sometimes you need to have a little rest I guess... I know I do although you wouldn't think so the way I trade!

Here is what we both missed........... yep more winners...4 to be precise

Do not be fooled though because once a strong longer term trend develops against your trades it will be a very different story.

A Long Setup is about to Form on GU....I am waiting for more Bullish Evidence to start placing Buy Trades...

Trend is still Bearish right now, but the Blue Boxes are telling us a story and there's no reason to predict at this point....

It's best to wait and pull the trigger accordingly.....
