These two articles should explain the maximal drawdown statistics generated by MT4 accountung.

too much market noise in the lower TF to trade Gold.
better trade it the way you would trade any stock or commodity using EOD on Day chart.

What do you guys think on NU?
H4
- reach trendline, the 4th times
- TDI almost cross down
- Stoch above 80

Then I switch to H1
- TDI crossed down
- Stoch above 80 and crossed

Then I enter the trade. If there anything I do wrong?

very simple, you cannot sell on blue APB candles.

are you trying to pick tops to sell?

H4, H1 and M15 all show consolidation.

I read it. So that means, my entry is on H1, and all the setup ready, i have to confirm with the trend in H4 is it. I dun like to go any lower TF than H1

Maybe good opportunity for H1 traders (D1 BEOB + H4 IB break)

Leon, I think you missed what Emm mentioned.
You are selling on a BLUE APB. So your sell setup is not ready on H1. Give it a bit more time for TDI to actually cross and the APB to turn red.
And if higher TF H4 confirms the trend, you have a high probability trade.

Btw, on a side note it looks like your risk ratio is kind of off.
From visuals, it looks like you are setting up to lose more than what you would profit if you win. So not even 1:1.

Thanks,

{quote} EURAUD H1 trade to D1 {image}
Hi Emmanual,

In this post you refer to taking your H1 trade off before the NY open, can you mention why? Is this because the NY open has a tendency to go in the opposite direction?

How long should we generally be holding a H1 trade position for?

{quote} Hi Emmanual, In this post you refer to taking your H1 trade off before the NY open, can you mention why? Is this because the NY open has a tendency to go in the opposite direction? How long should we generally be holding a H1 trade position for?

Hi Jettin,

I consider H1 as very short term day trading or intraday trading. These H1 trades should be open and closed within the same trading day and preferably open and closed withing 3 to 5 hours and avoid running trades into the next market session. We must always be caution when we hold trades during the overlap market hours of the London and the NY sessions. Even on days when the 'trend' runs from the London session into the NY session, the market will often pull back when London closing.

On the other hand, H4 trading which I consider as 4H swing trading, these trades can last 2 to 4 trading days in the same week. You can convert your H1 trades to 4H, and let them run rolll over to the next day. But when you do this, you need to change your trade management from H1 and H4.

For more information on H1 trading, you can read X-man thread here:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=327972

I learn most of my TMS trading from X-Man but his thread was moved to the Commercial Content forum.
