the US markets don't open untill about midnight my time. way past my bed time.
So the next best thing is when London opens as the European VOL gets to levels that I think start to create some kind of a tradeable trend.
However I still often get caught in some false breakouts after the market has been moving sideways for the previous several hours.
I'm thinking maybe i should waitan hour or so to see if a trend develops before I trade and combine this with waiting for a series of HH and HL to complete for a bullish trend and vice versa for bearish trend
The more i think about it, I have difficulty identifying a real trend versus a big ranging but choppy market.
I know if it was easy we could all be very rich:sarcastic:
I have attached a chart to demonstrate and would appreciate any ideas you have that I could trial
