7 00 am

EJ - normally my favourite intraday pair for scalping

Made high 2 days ago of 144 70 area - dropped to 143 34 area and over last 20 hrs or so as risen again to just over 144 14 and since this new TW as been a scalp sell under 144 12 with supports 03 /05 area
 
7 19 am

Both scalp sells on EU and EJ I have exited after 7 09 am with a total of 19 pips -

Both have bounced - but have only taken scalp buy on EJ from just under my interim supports as normally that pair moves move than the EU

Currently at 144 11 after a 99 /144 00 low
 
Looking at another 3 pairs - so far nothing is off real interest - need to wait for more direction clues maybe after London Open

GU is trying to rise - but still in its 20 pip range so will leave until later as already the EU and EJ have provided me with 3 good scalps in a total of under 50 mins - so not a bad last hour

Will quickly check before I pop out after the 7 30 am frame change

So far EJ cannot make above 14 /15 its interim R area - so will exit scalp buy for now
 
Good Morning all FX Intraday Traders

I have a busy morning on some domestic jobs - so instead of me covering at least 4 hrs between now and lunchtime - it might only be less than 2 hrs

Out at 7 45 am for 45 mins for a start

Will do a normal quick update and review on key pairs I plan to trade - or already trading and then will update after 9 00 am

Have a good day

All the best - and any FX related questions etc - feel free to ask etc

Regards

are things so bad that you had to sack butler:?:
 
7 34 am

Looks as though both EU and EJ want to test higher - both just breaking through their respective R areas now - but with it being half hr change - could be a false manipulated move to attract more bulls - before a pull back

I am off out soon - but should be back around 8 30 am UK time

See you later - 3 scalps 29 pips so far - so happy with my first hours work ;-)
 
Hi Fugazsy

a). TW - time window - a period in the hour when there is a higher probability of a price direction change. There are 60 mins in an hour period so you would think every minute as a 1.7 % chance of a direction change - but in reality - the 2 x 18 min TW periods maybe have a 80% probability and then the 6 minutes of the 36 mins have a 50% of the 80% ie 40% divided by 6 = nearly 7% chance of something happening in each of those 6 mins - ie better odds etc

b) Reason - might be bot timings - ie so much automation in placing orders etc

c) ideally in that 60 second period of the 6 key minutes but might be 30 seconds either side of the 1 minute - some days its always in the 1 min period

Remember nothing is 100% but if many factors all occur at the same time - then higher probability of a new small or large direction change

Hope that helps

Have a good day

Regards

wow F.............fascinating

theres a lot of statistical analysis and screentime (presumably) to back this up ?

I am currently doing some work on this regarding the usd index...........for me any USD pair has half of its dynamics influenced by the USD (durrr :p )...........all of my bespoke indicators fire off optimising best entries on the USD index signals and then riding the best pairings on the move ...a little like a slingshot

great work F (y)

beware ..........usd sells are testing the 2am usd index low already...........lets see if it bounces or follows through ........
 
BOUNCE - already worth a punt buying usd into normal pairs.......EU coming off a 25 pip move north now
