Oh well...

Thanks for your tip. Didn't work for me though.

Nevermind, i'll have to stick to using a few charts then. You're trading the London close? Are you also trading the London open?

I'm covering all the opens (US, London, Euro, Asia and Australia), with their relative currency pair. London and Japan are well worth covering.

EURJPY killed me this afternoon as I forgot to cancel pending order for long when going short. Foolishly, I cancelled stop loss too hoping for reversal and go long and lost 1k. Fortunately its still on demo... Still smarts, but shows you need to stick to the rules!

Are you making your trades immediately at close of London (9:00 PM PST), based on the time period of two hours before?

If you show me where're my mistakes, I think you are quite helpfull.
Okay, now would you like to direct me which point of resources/topic to sharpen my common sense in trading?
What I learnt is about Support Resistance, but I'm still not be able to applied the SR on my trading.
Does the SR have any relation with this method to decide price brekout moving?

:)

here i attach modification of indicator

1. i attached my indicator with default value
- GMTShift = 3;
- indi_number = 123;
- Start = 14:00;
- End = 17:00;
- linecolor = 0,0,79;
- textcolor = MidnightBlue;
2. i attached again with other setting like :
- GMTShift = 3;
- indi_number = 321;
- Start = 23:00;
- End = 01:00;
- linecolor = LightSalmon;
- textcolor = LightSalmon;

if you want to attach the indicator in the same chart, just setting the indicator, just setting the GMTShift, indi_number, Start, & End.

now the color can be setup as your like

Idea....

For EA...

use setting on indicator w/font adjustment

following rules...enter buy stop and sell stop

when buy or sell order is placed..cancel the opposite order.

be able to set take profit as well as lot size/ # of identical orders to open(my broker only allows 50 contracts per order, would like to open 100 or more ie..2 orders, 3 orders, etc)

be able to use magic number to use multiple EA on same chart( i use three instances of indicator per day).


Sound interesting anyone?

Ea

I had an EA built but it isn't working properly in backtesting. Unfortunately it doesn't use andee's indicator (andee, can we call your indi within the EA?) As soon as the problems are resolved I will post.

EA cannot use/call my indicator, because my indicator didn't use "indicator buffer".
my indi just draw high & low from "End" to "start"....

Sorry dznmrd for your thread at other forum.... but the follower of "the big dog" has open new thread.
