@Claudia1 I am always interested in other peoples ideas -and it's a good excuse not to watch Emmerdale etc. 9 am to 9.30 am {image}
That to me is a hold and wait. You sat on mid bunny band (20 ema essentially)at the 00 area. Wait a clear break high/low. After the big fall on gbp I'd be careful with that one infact keep away for a while until we see some stability creeping back in. Edit: it did break looking on the 4h.

hi all, playing around with a few break outs this week. has anyone looked at break of 7am-8am bar on g/u? seems decent if looking for 10/15 pips. going to look at Billys ORB too. Trying to work a strategy around my day job and just search for a few pips a day

thanks

I was referring to the 9 am to 9.30 am range ?
But you are right about me keeping with Brent :-)

David, for instance on 16th Feb, A/U broke high had retrace for -25 before coming good and it also broke low and it carried on for 10... That info should be correct as I looked at an email from that date. My Pc is off right now.
I have taken a look of the AU stats during 2015 with tp=10 and sl=30 and they don't look that good. Hedge and more discretion was needed.

I take profit at 5 most of the time. Last year I had 2 losers mainly due to having to go out on urgent business. It is the hedge/counter trade which has to be learned.
Once in a bad trade the correction is like a machine working, that is why I stick to one pair or more important one trade at a time. Trade well

Hello jmillard,, The 7-8 breakout is another decent method. It is breakout of Frankie open and quite often the high/low of the Asian session is formed during this time. The only reason I didn't look into it further is mainly due to sleep time lol. It seems to have good prospects but I am not sure if you can set and forget it and I have no stats for this one. Trade well

Definitely not stupid, When a weekly bar is broken it normally carries on for good return. I do not have stats for it but if it coincides with a daily break or 04-00 that is good for the shorter candle gain. This week a/u and cable have broken last weeks high/low.

E/J Daily Break, Sunday high broken then a 07 retraced before +10. The low was broken with no retrace before +10 (actual 63). Big numbers mean nothing to me I just want 5, except right now with this A/U trade lol.

If it is any help landsat, If you look to see why a movement happens you might get confused (not you personally) you start looking at fundamentals and other pair correlations as to why a movement happens. I very rarely look at anything else just trade the break. Just lately I have been speaking about actual trades and trends.pivots, That is because I haven't been trading and getting bored.

time 01-36, A/U shorts just closed for 5 and I have another trade still running but it will close at +1 if it retraces. Hopefully it will aim for the pivot at 7206

edit, it went to -3 on the retrace before the 10 came ..

i'm just looking at the breakout ,nothing else , i'm working on counter trade mechanism .
by expérience i believe its not necessary to optimize too much signals ,often optimization make things difficult .
ready for a new day

agreed, Especially when you say READY FOR A NEW DAY (new trigger) for a correction trade.... I get pinged a lot by people telling me how to trade lol whether it is pivot related, trading off a bad placement using 50 MA etc. They answer their own questions as to why they fail. Have a good day mon ami..
