I pulled the chart and don't see it? In any case, I would never consider a breakout in the ES "off hours" as valid. Whether that's correct or not I've no idea. But I only stick to 09:40 - 11:30am yankee EST (or 14:00 - 16:15 EST) when trading the ES. No other times permitted!
It looks to be between 9:40-9:50, the bar poskes above the BB, and the next bar makes a lower low, but also a higher high - so I suppose that invalidates a possible entry? Thanks!
Klutz, your intellect matches your penis size. I'm a sad fucking wanker ....because? Finish the statement asshole! Because I enjoy fucking with dimshits like you, that's why. Everyone else with half a brain was able to figure that out.
Just to clarify so I can see where you're talking about: What symbol, what date and time zone? But to answer without looking, yes that would invalidate. A pivot high is only formed when we've had a subsequent lower high. Which meams you must wait for the next bar to close before seeing if that criteria was met. We also need a lower low (not necessarily the same bar as the lower high bar).
Klutz, have you ever considered that retorts like this make you look like a fucking idiot? There is absolutely nothing remotely original or funny about them. You ain't even in my league pal, so piss off - you're becoming a BORE.
A few pages page, there was some chat about "post your method, you post yours". Let's be clear, I'm not bothered if a genuine person doesn't post their method. Maybe they'll just take mine and enhance it and give it back. I can deal with that! Or maybe they'll post one when they have one (if they're new to trading). The only people I 'demand' post their method, are the ones who have the fucking audacity to criticise me after posting mine. Or the fucking moralisers who can't leave me alone. Just so's that's clear!
Thanks for the info on EUREX - I didnt know about the 50 cents charge. I'll have to tweak my BT to do less stop changes. I'm not sure but I think 15 pts is too big a target for a single contract. I think the MAE/MFE analysis from WL may help in determining targets for multiple contracts. pretzel
FT, You're right. It's easier to eyeball the pattern. IMO, the ff are not easy to code? 1. there should be a pullback of x number of bars after a pivot before a BO entry occurs (no chasing if the next bar BO's from the first pivot) 2. the BO may occur after x number of bars - so how far back do you check for the last pivot bar? 3. there may be a new pivot bar after the first pivot before a BO occurs - so the code must change the pivot bar to the new pivot bar 4. moving stops - very discretionary pretzel
