Congrats on your results.
Very few ppl will have realised this, but Modoki Heatmap measures currencies only against the USD !!!
i.e. to obtain the GBP score, GBP is only measured against the USD (and not against AUD, CAD, CHF, EUR, JPY, NZD...).

Bear in mind when you "read" the heatmap that it's "incomplete", 6 counter references are not taken into account.

Measured over a long, very long run, using a decent sample size throwing in some confidence intervals in for good measure.

1. Monday is the best trading day, from there it goes "downhill". Friday being the trickiest day.
2. Most trades are concentrated in the first two to three hours of Tokyo, London & NY

These entry signals were received during NY session..I got these signals during NY session and I opened a basket based on the signals i received from Excel , CS and Heatmap Modoki though it was the same signal I received during London session to sell GBP pairs..I wanted to test the validity of all the signals so I am trading all potential signals at the moment to gain some experience since I am still new to Gap trading with Excel..This is to say that if you miss a signal dont feel sorry or rush into opening a trade even if there is no valid signal..Its always best to wait for the high probability setups..

STEP 2: Look at your MT4 chart and make sure GBP is at the bottom of heatmap modoki from M1 to D1 and all RED.And also look at the Currency strength meter and make sure GBP is at the bottom of currency strength meter with Red arrow.

Few minutes after...This excel dashboard gap trading strategy works like a charm...I didnt even look at the gap fr confirmation..I just opened the basket based on signals from excel dashboard , heatmap modoki and Currency strength as I explained in the posts above..Maybe I am just being lucky but one way to find out is to test test practice practice and practice more.

It helps a lot!! Thank you. I have it running already.

Just one question: how do you do to set the Excel as it is in Step 11 screenshot. I mean, how you could get into one excel page all that info and the Buy/sell buttons?


thanks in advance

Press the second button to the left. It takes you to where u want.

Just play arround each of those buttons, u ll see what happens to your excel.
