Another try/experiment on S&P 500 cash(order valid only between 14:30 and 20:15 BST):

Sell order @ 1414.60
Stop @ 1417.23
Target 1 @ 1413.10
Target 2 @ 1412.20

Not many points, but that's how the set up is for this system (it's based on Friday's bar which is not too big)

PS I'll ignore the prices supplied by SB companies tomorrow before 14:30. Also if not triggered on Monday, I'll cancel it.
 
Morning all, hope everyone had a good weekend!

GBPJPY looks nice for a short, as im slightly late I may look for a break of this consolidation and a pullback to get in with a stop just above the high

looking at nzd/jpy for a short. will want a price above 63.45 to get the value. Looks like a good resistance area

gbp/aud is going against me but no value in taking of the 2nd 1/2 so will leave and hope for a continuation of the downward path
 
Still watching for entry on GBPJPY.

Ideally want 124.957 (around about) to make it worth it. Would like to see consolidation of small ranges toward my entry.

The experiment was successful, but the trade failed:rolleyes:

On the normal chart it would have been a success (both targets hit without being stopped - the high after the entry was 1417.04)

The bucket shop made sure it hit the stop on their prices (it was only a small difference, but enough for the bucket shop to take the money - the high after the entry was 1417.33). Their price control software is amazing - it makes it almost impossible to use systems with precise orders(n)

PS It's one of the most popular bucket shops on this forum
