Note, there are a lot more signals that pop up on the 1 minute of course (noisy), and apart from time, ie sitting in front of the computer for every minute of the day, I personally prefer h1 t/f minimum as a rule. However, my general trading approach doesn't change...that is find a set of signals that match your criteria and trade it....if you technical approach is accurate enough, then that's all you have to do, and take profits as per your targets...simple!

Yeah that should be everybody's objective, agreed, and has always been the message that I've tried to get across, especially inexperienced traders, who tend to become easily influenced by what others are doing, and as you have said, look for an easy ride.
In my case for example, it is pretty obvious that ob/os zones play an important role for me, which I happen to think is important, and hence why I post charts to encourage others to take that kind of indicator into account, alongside Quantum etc.
The ingredients I use work for me, but maybe not for everyone. The newbies on here take a big risk I think if they try to take on Mers method, because that method, whilst it has proved to work, does require deep pockets, and the method I have chosen to apply, is intended to keep dd to a minimum by identifying the peaks and troughs, and thereby utilising the available funds more efficiently.
On that basis, each must consider what they are trying to achieve, and understand the risks involved against their chosen strategy carefully.
Once they've worked on that, then most will be in a much happier place to trade effectively I'd say
Cheers

ps...I closed previous UC short (-4 pips) and re-entered on red zone and closed for +10 pips, so net is +16 over the recent 3 trades.

I hope we don't start to make this methodology sooo complicated that the simplicity gets lost in the mix. I am trying to stay focused on price, the Q boxes support/resistance and divergence. To determine divergence I would choose whatever indicator that you are comfortable with. Keep it simple folks!
Good for you mate, you have identified key aspects that you are pursuing and work for you, and not "doubling" up on unnecessary additional indicators to keep your chart reasonably clean....that's the way to do it
