At 21:00 (my time, in 1:45) "they" will spike the spread, triggering pending buys and fall of a cliff in a split second.
If just I had the balls to close the open buys...... :arrrg:
.. what calendar are you using.. I thought that happened this morning?

If you are looking at those 3 then we might as well throw in EJ, EN and EA so that's the 6 most volatile pairs give or take.. Now how do we narrow it down further. There must be one that gives us our best chance on any given day..

We could look at News, ADX, CSS, MA Slopes or crosses... I feel this is what we need to look at next?

Cracky work here guys.

I have a demo running on 3 pairs that are prone to a bit of volatility.
EN, GC & XAU
The fx pairs are 5.10pm (New York) and Gold to its market open +10 @ 6.10pm

That sounds like work again.... :smile:
Visual backtest got my hopes high for an easy set and forget system.
GBPJPY already 3 days in ranging mode, now 4 buys and 5 sells.
Pair is setup to go down, like all GBP pairs I mentioned.
Amazing to watch the manipulation overnight, PA all over the place.

Looking forward to NFP in little over 2 hours....
if my calender told me right... :arrrg:

Regarding the grids, I set them up @20pips and a TP @100pips.
Did the math when pair closes @100;
0 loss : 4 win
1 loss : 5 win
2 loss : 7 win
3 loss : 9 win
4 loss : 11 win

So GBPJPY needs to 120pips below lowest low for me to close out... :roll:
