The results are increasing, slowly, but I won't complain. Looking forward to get started with the US futures, to fill my afternoons with extra opportunities.

Have a good weekend

Monday

Today FDAX opened inside prior day HL range (no gap) and IB ended inside prior day’s HL range. IB is long.

No good trades today from the system

Tuesday

Today FDAX opened inside prior day HL range (no gap) and IB ended inside prior day’s HL range (well, price went above, but came back in and stayed around prior day high). IB is long.

If price would be above PrD HL, there would have been a nice opportunity, but now I'll stick to the rules and let it go.

For FESX, not looking good for a trade.

I'm looking for some input on the US markets. Please have a look at this thread:

NQ RTH trading hours Hi, In my trading strategy (see my journal () I'm among other things looking at prior day open/close and high/low. I want to try to use the same strategy on other markets, starting with the futures NQ and ES. For FDAX, the volume for the future …

Edit 15:55: Well, I think I got played by the daylight saving times combined with NinjaTrader time zones. So, forget about it

Results

This week I had 2 trades in this journal, 33 points profit.

I updated the weekly report, as new tickers will be added soon. I'm struggling with printing the NQ/ES data from NinjaTrader, having issues with time zones and DST, but hope to fix that soon.
The FESX trades in the report were not taken live, but I mentioned these here in the journal, from 18-10-2021, the day I dropped my Excel file with the trades and that I started using the new system.

Wishing you a good weekend

Tuesday

Today FDAX opened above prior day HL range (up gap) and the gap was not closed during IB. So, IB ended above prior day’s HL range and is long.
