Is there any data available that tells you what currency pairs are affected the most by specific news?


#1

SMQ is no longer available.


#2

Would you mean maybe the news trading plan? Past that, I don’t know what you mean.

How are you Yoshi?

Doing really well actually. Working with the Iron Condors a lot over the last two -three weeks. Really like doing them. Waiting for the Binary Hunter to be finished up with the rules for hourly binaries, cause I want to use that one with the stop trigger getting out at 50 so that there is close to a one to one ratio, and with a high win rate. Other than waiting for that, I am very happy with the consistency of the IC’s while I am waiting. Still in demo, but I have been getting a higher demo account at the end of the week of the week for the past almost three weeks now with IC’s, so I may finally be getting close to going live. Just have to have that consistency!!!

Are you doing overnight iron condors or 2 hours etc?


#6

Most of the time, the IC’s that I do are from 6pm, or 8am, aiming for the 415 expiration in NQ, and the 130 expiration in Cl. There have been a few times that I have seen NQ, or Cl around 12 or so, and there was plenty of premium in the spreads, and price was right at ceiling/floor, and I took an IC then, but most of the time, it is at 6pm, or 8am when they open.

Last night in demo i did an IC that had a ton of premium for oil and a 2:30 expiration, it had like $70 in premium on each side, logged in next day BAM $60 profit. Normally i wouldn’t do this cuz i can’t do it live cuz i don’t have the $900 required to put up the trade. I want to see what the Binary hunter is like too cuz i’d like to have an hourly binary strategy since i had no luck with the 5 minutes (probably should have tried longer). If anyone has success with 5 minute binaries feel free to share what you look for in your trades :slight_smile:


#8

I’m going to try ans trade 5 minute binaries in demo at 7:30 tonight for the USD/JPY cuz the news… i never tried to trade 5 minute binaries during news before.


#9

I am still in demo too. The main reason is that I haven’t been consistent until lately. I am coming around that corner finally though. With Binary Hunter, I will trade that on the hourlies, mainly because I can use the stop trigger when things don’t go my way, and that will save me a ton. You can use the stop trigger for 5’s, but it doesn’t work in the last two minutes, and that is 40% of the trade. I personally haven’t been able to do much with the 5’s. I know Gregorious is doing really well with them in the Nadex Pit., but that is about all I know on that one.
