Monday
FDAX
Gap : no gap
Gap closed during IB: x
Position price at 9:30: inside prior day HL
IB direction: long
DAX Long trade
Entry 10:30 @ 15420
Exit 14:30 @ 15372 (SL)
SL 48 pts
Result -48 pts
Historical results with this setup:
SumR 475 (33 trades/win% 67%)
So, SumR translates to a relative (to current FDAX price) result of 22 points per trade (SumR/No of trades/10000*9am open price >> 475/33/10000*15489)
Let’s see
FESX: Long 10:30-11:30 SL13 >> Result; -13 (SL)
edit 18:55: It looked so promissing today, trading in GFIs1 direction and with the same entry time> tomorrow another day

Considering yesterday's extreme values, and IFO at 10am today, there is no trade today

Markets seem not to move a lot today...
But the certain change in the interest rates in USA will change direction in many markets around the world. Be prepared.

Wednesday
FDAX
Gap : up gap
Gap closed during IB: no
Position price at 9:30: above prior day HL
IB direction: Very long
The gap up that didn't close doesn't give many historical trades, but adding this huge IB > no trade.

Thursday
FDAX
Gap : down gap
Gap closed during IB: yes
Position price at 9:30: below prior day HL
IB direction: long
The down gap that closed during IB only gives a few historical days, when combined with the base filters. So, no trade
