I've found the same thing, I've also been caught in some drawdowns but I don't panic and close the positions because they seem to bounce back if TDI stays strong. I had 6 positions open overnight last night and this morning had a 100pip drawdown, ...

Hi Scoops, I'm in the same trade off the bounce, but I got in an hour earlier at 12pm because I set my 4HR bars to be 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm, ect... EST. So I'm down about 27 pips. I'm also in a few others that bounced at that time also. CHFJPY, ...

My platform (OmniTrader) can do it. It builds the bars with eSignal data so they can start anytime and be any length I want and then it can feed trades to MB Trading.
