    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    Because that's a completely different approach to the system here. Heiekn Ashi candles are generated a whole new way and you don't need them to determine trend direction. It's possible to have them in the indicator, but it would be an unnecessary variable to what we're trying to do here.

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    It's hard to get a feel for it this trading week, we don't exactly have the free flowing price action we need to see this work. Markets are churned up mostly.

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    I am just going to exclude the monthly candle at this stage and just go with a weekly/daily combination to see how we go. Monday wasn't a down day here, but since this is the first bullish weekly candle in a while - I think the market has plenty of room to correct upward. It's only play money...

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    So we're waiting for a bullish breakout here. In line with lasts weeks bullish candle, not taking the monthly candle into account because it's overkill and lags the system too much. Interested to see how these breakouts play out.

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    Yeah the monthly candle is just too sluggish. Most of the move is probably over if you get a beefy MN1 candle. The other question is where stops should be placed. I would be inclined to put them above the current day high/low, or if you want to be more aggressive use h4 swing high/lows for stop...

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    Agreed it might be a bit too much. The weekly candle is the important piece of data here. I think the anatomy of the weekly candle should probably affect trading decisions here too. A weekly Indecision candle might need more condition for just taking breaks of the daily highs/lows. But a strong...

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    Here is a cleaned up version. This is what I did... Removed unnecessary objects Set the default time frames to W1 & M1 only Changed the color theme to blue and red candles Changed default background color to LightGray The code is very messy and has a lot of junk in it. I think someone has...

    Trading Daily High/Low breakouts inline with Weekly & Monthly Candles

    I always thought of a weekly breakout strategy that lined up with the previous candle direction, and during london hours. In your strategy Erebus, you suggest waiting for a monthly and weekly candle to line up in the same direction. Don't trade any monday breakouts, but take any downside, or...

    Yes I can see the value in this way of thinking. As I've said you always see that 'early week' retracement. That's why Friday Close signals / Monday price action can generally be a pain in the ass.

    Mostly the angle of the mean value. Some other price action factors which I programmed in. I am going to keep all the finer details to myself because I don't want people replicating it, which I fear there is a black sheep running around in here. Tin foil hat is on :)
