With but rare exceptions, the London session gives the greatest liquidity day in day out for all the pairs. I believe that from the end of this session till about mid way through the next Asian, the market gives hints of what its intentions are for the coming day.
Bearing this in mind, I take the hints it offers by the London open and use them to enter at about this time. My aim is to TP by end of London again, so that I give room once more for more hints from the market for the following day. I believe I recall Bob sometime ago saying to take whatever is on the table at about this time. So, once this time limit is approaching, if I'm in a sell, I look for a W in M15 and exit at the start of its second arm. And the converse for a buy.
The only time I stay in beyond this limit (and this could be for several days some times) is when a trade is losing or it has not yielded a minimum required (or is it desired!) profit.
The options are endless; you have to look closely and decide which of them you are most comfortable with.
