linkrink,

 

The correct setting should be

Begin_1 = 02:00

End_1 = 08:00

 

I am with GMT+1 broker (Alpari and that is my setting)

Hey Guys its almost 8 am UK now as I post this..Best thing to do is check your BO candle now...is it ready to BO or is it an hour behind or in front etc.Then adjust your settings in Paramon accordingly.

Yes, that's correct.

 

But when i compare my GMT+1 settings with superfx, life for example for 28/07/2010, the timelines matches very closely.

Hey linkrink,

 

The manual says 00:00 to 06:00 in IBFX broker time, I think they are GMT -1 (This would be 7:00 UK when it isn't daylight savings time). The UK is currently in BST due to daylight savings time, so that means the UK is in GMT +1. This means that for IBFX and all other GMT +1 brokers you have to +2 to the time.

 

You are aiming to get 7:00 BST (8:00 GMT).

This clarifies a lot.

Thanks Chris.

 

But again, I just tried to align my timelines with the one in superfx's setups (if you see in my previous post #110

 

BTW Chris, i just searched internet for IBFX GMT settings, and it says that IBFX is GMT.

 

See this document

IBFX Broker time is GMT+0 (eg 08:00 Broker time is actually 09:00 London time, because London is now on BST)

So 06:00 IBFX chart time is actually 07:00 London time.

complicated this time thingy. anyway UK time if it's 2 till 8 it would be a dud so far today.

 

 

Actualy I have just looked again and re-drew my trend lines and got a total different result.

 

big problem i have with this pair is the 8pip spread.

OK, I have my clock which is all computer run, I know that my local time is correct.

I know London is two hours behind so 9, something as I am at 11 something.

Only problem now is IBFX! There seems to be a lot of disagreement about its GMT+ value. I did hear + 3 somewhere.

 

Pity we cannot get to the author of the .pdf

 

I seem to have cut off the times, never mind

 

I will say that it broke out nicely at 0600 UK

Posted

The 0600 UK made 50 pips before reversing!

 

Looks like we might be coming out the lower line.

If possible, open a H1 chart of the FTSE100 and look at the broker's time of todays first candle. The candle should have opened at 8:00 BST

Hey everyone,

 

We all seem to have different trend lines and the way they are drawn is different. It didn't give different results yesterday, but it could today.

 

This is how I drew mine.

Aren't you supposed to draw the trend line from the highest close to the second highest close, and from the lowest close to the second lowest close like I have on my image shown by the arrows?

 

Chris.

I believe trendlines for a line chart differs from trendlines on candlestick charts due to obvious reason.

Looks to me like you should take the high with the arrows and take it down to the high that comes from the low arrows. Even to two or three candles further, depends how you see the candle on the end of the grey block.

The low from the arrows to six candles along.

You will end up with a nice triangle and one candle of breakout up!
