E/J at 02-16 uk time... Just suppose we are short .. we enter short at 12108 looking for 20 points. If it drops to 12098 we either close trade and re enter with double the stake OR add another lot on and when it reaches 12088.. so we get 30 points instead of 20.... {image} edit,, i adjusted my entry to 12108 as in the chart.. if it loses it loses, this is pretend...i use to do this with 20 stop and 20 target looking at 100 point range. so we had 20-40-80-160-320-640 and it can be done.
but you are doing the compounds with muscle yes - not actual moves - still +20 ect

you are basically using your winnings to gain more, bookies hate it.
When i say i look for 5% daily i usually get a bit more like 5.5% or 6% 6.5% etc. and all this extra helps to offset a loss and it all adds up. i get the advantage/edge

Right - messed up here. Managed to reset my indi before taking screenshots ...clever...

I am sure you can force it to go back in time but not by me, so...for tonight, I have gone back old-school. You'll figure it out.

Best (most solid signals) options on the day were AU, GU, CJ, NU, NJ, XAU, UJ, GJ, GER30 and US500...
Of those AU had news coming, CJ had a small/no body, XAU had next to no body and US500 had no zones...
That left GU, NU, NJ, UJ, GJ and GER30.

I took GU and all was well in the world...
In fact all those last options hit the targets with the minimum of fuss, though UJ and GJ did so on the second moves (the first moves not being taken as against the directional bias).

As an aside, all of the pairs would have brought the right result, it's just that those ''less likely'', will have required varied amounts of extra work.

Anyway, I need to go get some sleep, so here's how it all looked.

i said yes to this question just before... It isnt that easy.it is like those threads you see, £200 to £20 million .
either look for a mini spike good/fast move or double up each day which is a variation. A/U is ideal for that. but then you are looking at different range etc.

{quote} thank you Lem, counter is the word...
Hi LM, Billy,

I guess by counter you guys mean: Enter long at the breakout above the 4 am GMT high and then if price reverses before +5 or +10 pips, then enter double the amount at a breakout below the 4 am GMT low? That way the long is stopped out and you are in a short position. So theoritically the stop is the Hi-Lo of the 0000 - 0400 GMT candle?

Hi. Basically, yes, though there are subtleties in approach between methods. For instance, it is not necessarily a double amount counter and where the counter begins is different depending on whether you are talking about AU 04:00 break, Dead Zone or Frankfurt Break. Also, the original trade is not always stopped out straight away, instead run as a true hedge (not a technique available to those traders based in the US).

t 09-08... Cable, the 07-30 range was 6,,, very small for me to compound BUT the Low of the 07-30 was also Low of the 04-00 bar so i just shorted it with a bigger lot size with a view to counter. It went well...

Hello Courier, hope all is well. Enter Long at 04-00 High,YES.... if it reverses before + 5 or +10 Short at 04-00 Low.
If this happens you have a good chance of making +20.
Normally i keep same lot size (no double) and i wait for next trigger. BUT sometimes i do double my lot size as trade might be approaching a 00 or inside bar break, pivot.

i dislike giving anything to a broker, a trade only fails when you close it.

Compounding, i posted a theoretical trade earlier E/J
Attached Image

well it dropped
Attached Image

A = it made 10
B = it made another 10 but we had compounded or doubled trade. so we got 30 instead of 20.
This can lose and IF i had actually traded this, i would of closed it on the retrace before the +20 was made.
