{quote}[/color] yes, we counter at the opposite end, in this cast the low..then look for 20 or daily range. The 20 and daily range all depend on how many points have already been made. We dont have to counter, but once a trade is closed we have lost that money.
OK thanks...i fully understand this for the 04-00.....NOW.........i know i read on this thread and have notes to use the ORIGINAL TRIGGER POINT (in this case our LONG) as our first COUNTER TRADE......I'm assuming that this rule is used for the DAILY Breakout Only since we're working with a Daily Candle. I would assume that we re-enter on the First Trigger (top) as our Counter because if we wait for entire range to be covered before we enter on the other side (bottom)....thats too far to travel..........so i'm assuming that is why we use the other trigger. Is this correct? .....boy I hope so..lol

You cannot counter on the original trigger as it whips and you would be crucified,
On the daily break, if it triggers then retraces i would normally counter at - 30 even though my stats are based on fail at -20.
i personally would concentrate on 04-00, it is easier and with smaller range.

Perfect! Thank you very much! I will NOT counter the Daily. I will maybe try to counter the 04-00 but NOT double my lot size on the Counter....i'll start with Same Lot Size as original trade. Your awesome Billy!!

whats 1% of your trading account? you will have to find the lot size which is this amount per point.

although consider splitting up your bankroll or going down to 0.5%

i dont know for certain but i think everyone running that lot size has backup money. billy does for sure as he has confirmed this many times.

bank of william it is called. 1 client only.

The low broke then retrace up high broke then drop down etc, you cannot trade like this, Take the loss on this method.
BUT IF i had a example 10 stop on the trade i would still be in with a chance of getting points with original trade

t 08-45 i wasnt sure how high that retrace was going but it stalled and i shorted, it dropped and it retraced up again for maybe another short???
i will only short it again if it goes higher than the original low trigger..

The short is still on because the +10 has not been made.

No Frankenbreak this morning again. Various reasons, none to do with trading. Life sure gets in the way, sometimes.

I did have the DAX 06.00-08.00 prepped but didn't trade it as I wasn't sure about the large(er) range - I don't have Billy-level stats, lol.

As it turned out, I needn't have worried, broke short and would have made the +5% no probs.

No idea how today is going to pan out for me but have a good one everybody (watch out for those pesky margin-monkeys due to the election - brokers do like to have their fun!)
