should we always wait to be above or below the daily open?jackboton wrote: Fri Oct 10, 2025 11:55 am No matter what the arrow or the square is, the second point is crucial, whether it's a big second dot or a small second dot.When the second dot appears, then consider whether the candle has crossed above the moving average or if there's a moving average crossover.
There is a 3LZZ dashboard with alerts that I recall from several years ago. It was for MT4 but may since have been rewritten for MT5. May be worth trying to find.SOLESHOE wrote: Fri Oct 03, 2025 6:33 pm morning thought:

If you see configuration of square and second arrow pointing in the same direction and then second big dot and candle crossing ema enter trade it should be bigger move (higher timeframe alignment).
Visible square don't guarantee you that it won't recalculate. But, but ,but ... just trade like this you will have enough problems figuring out your approach to stops and exits.
The red dots or arrows on the opposite side don't matter.

Before that, I would stay long.Lenovo wrote: Fri Oct 10, 2025 7:13 pm in fact, waiting for the opening line is not a good idea because now I already have the opposite red dot, or I have to leave it until the opposite arrow

Yeh but arent your targets different, less pips and much higher trading costs to trading profits ratio?Tomson wrote: Thu Oct 09, 2025 9:08 pm This is why I prefer m1.
If you're looking for, say 1:2 on m5 it can take hours to get there. Or not.
On m1 1:2 is usually over in minutes, win or lose.
