11.0 trading sessions

what i think would also be importnt for an EA is the different lot sizing for the different pairs , so you could use a good risk management.

what about a "timer" on the EA? If the trade hasn't been entered in the first 3 hours after the session opens, the EA kills the pending? Don't even know if that's possible.......

Right now it is taking me almost 2 minutes to check all the charts and set my trades. I am learning to do the GBP and higher volatile currencies first. I missed 60-75 pips yesterday because by the time I got to the chart price had already passed the 5 line and I think 2 of them were almost to +15 so time is of the essence.
I know this feeling only too well :arrrg:

Cheers
You are welcome. I too was having trouble trying to get the lines with the right session now its a piece of cake. I was out almost all day and decided to try the 7:00 period with some trades. See what happens. Got those .01 lot sizes going so if I win the profit line will be slow, but so will the losses. Now I can have some fun with this system.

The new indi is the same thing as the old, it is just easier to find the right one at the right time slot. Now you can test any time period and we wont have all these conflicting reports of an indi working or not working with certain brokers. Just find the one that fits your time slot and away you go. So if the old indi fits the euro open then you dont need to change that part. However, I like the colors and the matching session box colors with the direction. It really makes back testing easy to follow.

I think we may have the simplest trading system ever developed. Takes less than 10 seconds to read the chart and place the trade. Cant get any easier than that.

I will start my deep studies now. I have the indicators to test each time period. I have the info on which currencies move the most when. I have which currencies are the most volatile. So now I start my chart reads. Like tonight I decided to try 700 or an hour and half before market move time. I will close them soon at 1.37 loss. Not much happened. The two currencies that would have hit the +15 were there by the time I got to them so .............. Have to learn to be on time. My next ones will be at 900 I will skip the 800 I got killed there last night.
