Ghous, what are you thoughts on taking a trade as the candle closes on Friday - do you wait for Sunday/Monday to enter the trade?

Mastering the Art of Trading

Agreed, which is why I am not sure about it. (I should caveat I only saw this thread yesterday and am playing catch up). However, the compression upwards makes me wonder whether the bigs will push it up to the HHR at 107.297 to take out the stops ...

Thanks - but when I do that nothing changes - it still only shows the histo for the current TF. I thought maybe another indicator was overriding it, but even in a new template it only shows the current TF. Edit: I can do it on an MT4 ...
