TooSlow ...
Saw your informative thread as was intrigued so made an indi to screen for opportunities.
If you do not want it on here just delete my post.

To add more pairs just set AddPrs to number you want to add and then put pair names under AddP1 .... etc.

BS shows when current bar has Open H/L
5m shows when 5m min opens above/below
Go! shows when 5m cross the H/L
D1 shows when current bar straddles D1 H/L

Put indi onto separate chart and set chart min (under properties/ scale fix) to higher value than usual highest price then candles will not interfere with indi. Any TF chart.

The answer is very clear for me: I'd rather miss a few winners! :-)

My bad.
Pips should have been banked after bar[1] closed.
Was not focused on the trade.
Instead my BE+4 stop got hit.

Learn from my mistake.
Focus on your open trades.

How did you enter this trade? I don't see the setup.

Too many rules.Trading is instinct and flexibility. This method seems stiff, unsure and complex.

There was news at the top of the hour.
Better not to jump in trades in front of the news.
When you do, it is called gambling.

That was not an entry.
That is what happened after my trailing stop go hit.
Price continued down.

I was watching the EurUSD price action, I sold the opposite direction and banked pips!!!!!! I waited for the bear movement of course. No gambling.

You cannot trade this method without very fast planning and instinct. It's a general guideline that is very easy to follow mentally.

Thank you for the feedback, RFMagus1.

Let me work on condensing the rules.
Can anyone restate the rules?

What do you plan fast?
What instinct are you talking about?

Maybe there is something we can all learn from you.

A bar makes a new high open or new low open for the current day on the H1 chart. ( any time frame can be used, usually the H1 makes most sense)
Rule #1 Watch for breakouts and be careful around them. No entries on breakouts.
Rule #2 After the price action has moved through the H1 open low / open high switch to 5m chart for entry. Wait for 5m bar to be going in the correct direction between the high or low of the day moving towards the open. as it crosses the high open / low open enter the trade. Do not hesitate or be one pip late.
At +5 pips Be+1 at +10 either exit half and leave be+1 and let it ride, or secure more with a be+5/5pip trail.
It's very simple.
