How it works

When the price breaks a level and falls back, the system trades the other way.

The price often moves above the highest price of the last hours. Then it cannot stay there and falls back. The system waits for this. It checks the move on the 5-minute chart. Then it opens a trade in the other direction. The target is a nearby price that the market has not returned to yet.

  1. 01Watch the 1-hour chart. The system marks the recent high and low.
  2. 02The price breaks through, then falls back. It cannot stay above the high, or below the low.
  3. 03The 5-minute chart confirms. The system sets the direction, entry price, stop-loss and trade size before it opens the trade.
  4. 04Protect the trade, then aim for the target. Early in the trade, the stop-loss moves to the entry price. If the market turns, the trade closes near the entry price, not at the full stop-loss.
Example: a sell trade 1-hour level · 5-minute entry
1-HOUR HIGH STOP-LOSS TARGET SELL HERE 1 BREAK2 FALL BACK3 CONFIRM 09:30ONE NEW YORK TRADING DAY · 5-MINUTE CANDLES16:00
This is a drawing, not a real trade. A buy trade works the same way in reverse: the price breaks below the 1-hour low, then comes back up.
The system trades when
  • The price moves up and down during the day. This happens on most days.
  • The price breaks a recent 1-hour high or low and then falls back. The 5-minute chart confirms this.
  • It trades gold and other metals, large stock indices and some futures. It trades only during New York market hours.
The system does not trade when
  • The price moves in one direction for hours and does not come back.
  • The price has already moved much more than usual that day.
  • It is a US market holiday. Also, every day it closes all trades before the New York market closes.

We made these rules on purpose.

Trading hours

All times are New York time.

The system trades during New York market hours, 09:30 to 16:00. It closes all trades before 16:00. The London market opens earlier. When both markets are open, prices usually move the most. The clock below shows the time now. It changes for summer time in both cities.

Details

The risk on each trade is fixed. Every trade has a stop-loss.

The system is built to have many small wins, many small losses and few full losses. It is designed so the account falls less during losing periods. The cost: some trades close early and miss a bigger move. We chose this on purpose.

Who it is for

Use it next to your other trading.

The system trades on days when the price goes up and down. Trend systems usually do badly on those days. It also closes all trades every evening. This is why it can run next to other systems.

A bull and a bear face each other. The bull is buyers, who push the price up. The bear is sellers, who push the price down.
  • Good next to trend or swing systems, because it trades on different kinds of days.
  • For traders who want the stop-loss and the trade size set before each trade opens.
  • Not for people who expect no losing months, or who want to catch every big move.
  • There is no minimum deposit. You decide how much to risk on each trade, and how many losing trades in a row you can accept. On very small accounts, the broker's smallest trade size can make the real risk higher than the risk you chose.
