Deadzone?
Witching?
Breakout?
TP/SL/COUNTER?

Errr...just checked, yep, it was. Why would you think otherwise? If you are counting candles back and comparing it to the chart above, then don't, as the DAX market had closed the hour before and so had printed one candle less than the others at that point.

Yep - I'd take the grid off though. Make things a heck of a lot easier to see. Just a thought.

I've read in previous posts on this thread that there is a 5 pip buffer on the 07-30 bar (M30). Is there a buffer on the 04-00 bar or the EJ Daily Break?

Also.........with a small bankroll would it be more profitable to trade the INITIAL BREAK OUT?....or.....the RETRACE?....since the retrace goes for +20 or even ADR sometimes

Time-wise to match up to Denver, The Dead Zone and Witching Hour would suit. Any of our 04:00 breaks are going to be your midnight (though maybe you're a night-owl and that'd be fine).

Any advice other than that is you gotta' suck-it-and-see. Only by trying, will you know what works best for you.

The Dead Zone for you being in NY would be at 7 am EST. (1 hour BEFORE the Open of the NY Session)....use the H1 bar.
The EJ Daily Break for you being in NY would be at 5pm EST......depending on if your broker uses a 5 pm "end of day". (bear with me i'm new to trading)
EJ Daily Break TP = 20, SL = 30
Counter Trading.....and everything else.....you need to do what I"m doing and go waaay back into the thread and start to catch up. I started at the very beginning and read a bunch of pages...then i skipped and went to when LEM started the thread and I've been going from there ever since. I've gained a lot of knowledge in a short amount of time. This thread is fantastic! Oh yeah, TAKE NOTES!

If we have example 04-00 break... we have trigger and then it retraces before making +10 (for stats) we enter on the retrace, this gets us points ,infact can get us more than 5. We have less risk doing this.
SEE LINE,TRADE LINE..PRICE HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE,,, PRICE WILL GO SOMEWHERE.

I totally understand what your saying, thanks! i'm still a little unclear on a couple things though.

1) Is there a 5 pip buffer on the Daily Break candle?

2) Is there a 5 pip buffer on the 04-00 H4 candle? EDIT : I found it in the thread.....Trigger is High + Spread OR Low + Spread (not 5)

3) With my small bankroll would it be a better idea to SKIP the initial breakout and WAIT for the retrace and TRADE THE RETRACE ONLY? Or should I trade BOTH?

i have never mentioned any buffer BUT they can be used, all my stats are without a buffer.
I think you may be better trading off the retrace especially with a smaller bank roll

I was thinking that with a really small account ($200-$500) I could trade the 07-30 bar the in a similar way billy trades, ie: look for +5, then if price reaches +5 I would close trade #1 and open trade #2 which would be x2 lot size as first trade (compounding)..... and look for +10...if trade reverses before +10, then look to keep trade in limbo until it reaches the "opposite" side of the bar and price breaks other trigger.....at that point I can close trade #1 and open up a Counter trade of either Same Lot Size as original trade or double lot size as original trade.....Look for possibly 20+ pips on the retrace trade of the 04-00 bar.

Is this possible by using the M30 bar? I thought it might be since the Daily Range would be so much smaller on a M30 candle. I would probably have to set some restriction on Range size (just incase).

I would also trade the EJ Daily Breakout but only use the TP =20 and SL=30. No retrace or compounding.

I would also trade the 04-00 bar BUT........ONLY on the retrace AFTER it reverses and triggers opposite side trigger....i'll go for the +20.


How does this sound Billy? is this feasible?

ALSO........please add anything I may be missing.
