Inside Casino Settings there is a setting called HM Settings and HM_Time_Frame =15 it's default. He is saying to put the time_frame to 5 and then select check HM and put it to value 8 on the Casino Dashboard.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

{quote} Dear Seller9, When you indicate HM5 = 8... Are you referring to HM on an M5 chart with a value of 8? Or is it a typo and you meant HM = 5? Thanks in advance. Regards. Sorry ... I myself found the answer. Thank you! {image}
HM time frame = 5

There have been way too many question being asked that have been answered many many times in the forum.

Some of you say you don't understand the videos and would like a PDF.

Some want to be led down the yellow brick road and don't want to do the homework to reach Oz.

Well, you have a PDF already, it is this forum, read it and don't look for shortcuts and expect someone else to take your final for you.

The ones that are making money with Casino have done their homework and put in their time.

If you don't want to put in the time needed than you are wasting your time in this forum, please move along.

Simple question.
Does the charts have to be open for the Casino to trade with the TRND_BRK_PIN 2 and other plug-ins?
Thanks.

Nice trading Husky. Few questions for you:
1. Which broker are you using for your live account and how do you like them? I noticed your spread are much better than mine.
2. I also noticed you are using M5 TF. I suppose that is probably why you have the HM set to 1.7 in order to get more signals. What is your HM period set at in Properties? Also 5 minutes?
3. Last but not least. It seems you were trading with this strategy at around 12:30pm GMT when there was a major news on the EUR that affected the market a lot. How did your strategy perform between 12:30pm to let's say 16:00 pm GMT? I suspect if you had trades opened the other way when the news hit, you got stopped out but did your strategy pick up the new direction right away or did you miss a lot of the move?

Thanks

1.robofx.well is market maker but ecn account have really good conditions.
2. M5 in HM also
3. started on asia.closed one 20$ basket during London and start again.right before the news i was thinking to stop with little profit some of 4$ or to let it run ( so i had the choice).so i let it roll
and here's my loss for the news than i stopped everything and i can say yes,with this strategy better to close before such news and also think about today was not an usual news day.maybe on usual data during the week will work good but with such news i lowered the basket SL just in case.and got stopped.lesson learned.

Thanks Husky. Great info there. You confirmed my thoughts. Sorry you had to learn the hard way but as long as you learn from them it's not a total lost and it can help a great deal in the future.

I think your strategy has a lot of merit but it looks like it could be a good idea to stay away from major news times. A strategy like trendline breaks works better during those times but yours seem like the opposite unless you were lucky to be in the right direction at the time of the news. So I'm thinking that when using yours, a good way to do it would be to use session times in Casino and let's say setting Casino to stop maybe 30 minutes before the major news events and maybe re-starting 30 minutes after to maybe try to catch the big market move. Someone could even switch to the trendline strategy during that time and then switch to yours whhen the market settles down. What do you think? Maybe other posters can provide their opinion on this as well. I would be interested in hearing from seller9 on this strategy.

Anyway...great work Husky. Tough times during the news but it looks like you still did great overall yesterday.

Some London session breakouts
Yes I saw those when I got up this morning. I guess there would have been a fake breakout initially before the big move unless the strategy was to wait after the close of the candle when breaking the trendline. I guess it's a give and take situation. You are willing to miss on a big part of the move (maybe even most of it sometimes) but it is safer in catching the right direction. There are no free rides

Hi Husky77....

I agree with you. I test your strategy since Sunday and I get more than USD 800 profit with lots of 0.10.
But the event of the ECB, broke the winnings in a row....
I attach list of transactions. I use EL 60/40, and in three days almost four, always winnings.....except today because....ECB.
Thanks for sharing your idea...

{quote} H husky, I used the same settings and under the news and the results was a disaster
After more thoughts into this issue I guess one way around this would be to tighten your SL quite a bit just before the news. If it goes the opposite way initially it takes you out so big deal as the SL was not too large. And when it turns around it should pick up the new direction and move on. On the other hand if it moves right away in your direction you take advantage of the entire move. Something to think about.

like i said guys.i let my trades to run just to see how will be on this special day news. I SAW IT. lol
Casino have inside so many usefull settings that can help you to avoid any disaster,you just need to set your EXIT strategy.keep in mind always better with less profit or even little loss instead to dream on big profit and take big hit in your balance when you maybe expect less.dont get drunk with fresh water when we talk about market cos you can sleep rich and wake up poor.Many strategies here show us that entries are there and will always be,just need to work the best EXIT .
Cheers!
