Good tips, folks; thanks. (For now going to have to get some sleep & try to get back here for New York.)

Thanks. I know that & I try. Sometimes I think maybe I should go back to the 5 minute chart where I lived when I had a job. 10s & 20s add up to 50; do I need to get them all in one trade? Meanwhile I'll hang in here & try to do better.

I tried that too, but it's not going; it's coming back down.

I got hoodwinked too. I think the trick is to stay up all night to trade London. Ugh.

Not partying yet; just timid; waiting for the charts to look more "normal".

Thanks! Everyone have a wonderful holiday season & let's all come back for a fun & prosperous new year.

Thanks. I'm sitting on the sidelines too. Nice to have confirmation that that decision was shrewd, not cowardly.

We'll be fine. I used to use a moving average cross plus TDI when I was sniping the 5 minute chart. Appreciate your concern, of course.

Don't worry about it; we're all friends here.

Yep, sitting in front of the computer with my Saturday morning coffee. My husband would say why look now; they're not moving.

P.S. Dean Malone has a cool video where he shrinks the chart out of the way & just marks the TDI trades, then brings the chart back, & sure enough, there are the trades. I'll look for it later, unless somebody has it handy & would like to toss it up ...

I've been looking at jumping in at the TDI cross regardless. Then if I haven't limited out at 50 (or 40?) by the end of the candle I entered on, get out when it closes with one candle's worth of pips. That's only for the New York trade, though. ...

Agree. Besides, reading a chart & managing a trade is a different skill than haggling with technology. (Celebreties have pool boys; I want a computer boy. Not interested in any "side benefits", just make the silly thing work!)

I keep a second chart open with regular candles.

Thanks X-Man — Thanks, X-Man; looking forward to participating. In case anyone wants it, here's an indicator that will box your trading sessions so you don't have to draw lines. Makes it easy to look back & study. Mine is set up for central ...

1H Trading Plan — Yippee; thanks! Can't be up at 2am here for London (I've tried; ugh). Going to focus on the New York open & only look for that one trade every morning; catch some pips & live on day shift. See you in the morning.

Wow; thanks. Do you care about the news that usually happens 1/2 hour after New York opens? P.S. Thank you again; I just grabbed 20 & got out.

Wow; thanks for the tip. It's keeping me out of a lot of this mess without stewing about whether or not I should try, is it going to go this time. Simple, I can look & say, nope, hasn't touched the blue band; go cook breakfast.

On the chart progression the histo didn't turn green until the candle was well on its way, so why would you enter at the open while the histo was still red?
