I repeat this so new comers don't have to go back to the first post:

A bar makes a NEW DAILY high and closes. Next bar fails to make a higher high and reverses. Sell when price drops below the open price of the current bar.

A bar makes a NEW DAILY low and closes. Next bar fails to make a lower low and reverses. Buy when price rises above the open price of the current bar.

Let me rephrase in the form of yes/no or true/false questions.

1) Did a new daily high or new daily low happen during the previous bar. If YES/TRUE go to question 2, otherwise find another pair.

2) Did this bar test ( get near ) the new daily high or new daily low of the previous bar. If YES/TRUE go to question 3, otherwise find another pair.

3) Has price returned to the open price of the current bar. If YES/TRUE enter the trade in the direction price is crossing the open, otherwise do not enter the trade.

Memory tells me something about using the highest open and lowest open as trade triggers (orange lines).

Glad my memory about the highest/lowest opens returned

This trade BENT THE RULES.
Today's highest H1 open was used as the sell trigger.
Price cross above the highest open and then crossed below.
The entry proved profitable THIS TIME.

GBPCHF spread and margin requirements are not in my favor.

There is nothing sexy or cool about this.
Simply waiting for a new daily high or low to occur.
No fancy looking indicators, only lines and a digital gauge.
One need not be very smart, only consistent, to be profitable.
Many stop by to look but few return.
Nothing much new from day to day, just a rerun of the same.

This pair is not one of my regulars.
Another thread spoke of using currency strength to select pair.
AUD is weakest.
JPY is strongest.
Buying AUDJPY near the daily low made sense.

Buying USDJPY near the daily low when triggered.

The USD is stronger than the GBP.
That would imply selling the GBPUSD.

Waiting... to move stop down to BE+1.
