You don't ;) I'm just making a case for banking profits when you see them rather than employing breakeven tactics. You shouldn't be scared to be stopped out here and there if your baskets are hitting TP more often than not. Especially if you are risking a low % per basket and especially if you work out how to bump up the R:R.

PS thanks for your help with the stock imports. Thanks to you I worked out how to massage the results into the Empty4 format but I still couldn't get it uploaded to the darn thing and working. Oh well, was just for fun!

Most of the action was around the London open. Not clear how much further it will go.

I reentered based on the latest bounce during the NY session, but will look to take profit rather than hold.

"reentered" as in going in the direction of the basket based on the D1 TMA slopes (e.g, short Eu/Usd)?

Also if you look at Neo's TMA CSS-SP for the Eu/USD you see it recently crossed below 0 on the M15 while the H1 is above +0.8 Very confusing.
