GBP/USD Daily image GBP/USD Weekly image Hi all, Would that have been a valid continuation setup on June 23, 2025, where one would have bought at the opening of the next daily candle, or perhaps a little earlier/later to avoid a high spread? On ...

I think those are great results. 3 consecutive months with a profit of over 1% each (if that's net profit). In April, even only 8 trades. In some of your posts, I read that you didn't use a fixed risk/reward ratio and occasionally skipped trades on ...

Your english is fine. Thanks for commenting, that makes it clear to me! I wish you continued success and stay disciplined.

Good observation. I've already tested numerous range breakout strategies that define a fixed time period on various markets, using a purely mechanical approach without an entry filter, and I haven't been able to determine consistent ...

Great but your sell position seems to have been executed within the range and not 4-5 pips below it like you said yesterday? Where do you placed your stop and what has been your take profit target?

Do you use a „max. range size“ for the range you’re using (first 15 min) or do you enter on the break (as you don’t even wait for a close outside) no matter what? Today first M15 / H: 23.977, L:23892 (85 Points) image

So you mean the first 15 Minutes after DAX Xetra Open (09:00-09:15 GMT+2) ? I read that for the S&P 500 the time period is between the 35th and 40th. Minute after opening (10:05-10:10 NY local time, 16:05-16:10 my local time). If you were to ...

It's hot and humid here too. I have three fans pointed at my head. It's supposed to get even hotter this week. image

What reference bar/time range did you use here, and did you wait for at least another M5 bar/candle to close outside of it?

Yes (maybe), but a backtest is of no use if I don't have clear rules in advance by which I act, as I wouldn't be able to objectively repeat what was tested anyway. I trade CFD's and not products from exchanges. I don't know if you can trust this ...

OK. So the trade entry should take place exactly at the opening (09:00 CEST / 17:00 AEST) and not 1 hour later. Therefore, I should get an idea BEFORE the opening to decide whether I will buy/sell or do nothing. I could start analyzing the charts 2 ...

@btrfx1 Questions 1) What about the 9 numbered candles that also closed above/below the SMA? Those wouldn't have been valid entry signals? 2) How is the Stochastic indicator used to confirm a valid entry signal? Screenshot (GER40 D1) image ...
