Here we go - this is for explaining + talking about the TRO trading style.
I tried to catch the basics but didnt get it yet.

here's what TRO says:

Quoting 

A) Price makes new low for the day or is within 20 pips of low of the day

B) Previous candle is green ( 5 min, 15 min or 60 min )

C) Enter at previous candle high

Look at chart. The last red candle was green when it hit the high of the previous candle and that was your entry. In 2 candles, you had a 10 pip profit.

so here my first question :

is the color of the bar that makes the new Low important ?
Must it be RED ?

What do you think guys ?

I don't think so, as long as the next bar is green and then the subsequent one after the 1st greens high is broken, then enter.

OK - lets go on : (more / diff opinions to the questions are welcome)

what does this mean : Price makes new low for the day or is within 20 pips of low of the day

i dont get this because i am no native engl-language guy i think.

Here is a 5 min chart on CL as it just made a new high, notice the red candles and the short entry. Just an example on CL look at it on anything. I'm starting to really see it.

Yesterday's ES 60 Min Chart showing both a Buy and Sell Entry. It is truly not "Rocket Science". Will it work for ES; Jury is out.

(Risking the onslaught of flaming arrows from TRO if I am wrong. )

See the first check - THAT'S LOW OF THE DAY

See the second check - THAT'S IS PRICE AT THE HIGH OF THE PREVIOUS GREEN CANDLE.
