Hi Fee Dee,
You take stochastic indicator (14, 3, 3) or (5, 3, 3) and basically look at its lines: both lines head up - your preferred trading direction will be to the upside (Buy); both lines look down - you'll be looking to sell.
Now, as you trade the breakout:
"Trade the direction of the 4hours stoch with higher quantity" means:
if the breakout is in the same direction as Stoch lines, you can open a larger position.
"Trade direction against 4hours Stoch with lesser Quantity" means:
if, for example, the breakout is to the downside, but Stoch is heading upwards, you put less money at risk and open a smaller position.
Best regards,
Edward
What is GJ and J pair?
""At a break of the horizontal line, move to lower time frame like 5min TF
- then let the whole body of the 5min candle be outside the line.""
outside of what line???
These are abbr. for GBPJPY and xxx/JPY pairs. ("xxx" means "any")
The line would be the horizontal line at the highest high (and another one at the lowest low) of the first 4 candles of the day. You should draw and be able to see this line across all time frames, including 5 min, where your trigger would be the first 5 min candle to form and closed outside that horizontal line.

Edward

Roberto,
We cannot predict whipsaws, so "NO TRADE" is an aftermath, a summary of what had happened, nothing more.

Hi Gang,
Just a short question about time frames and the fact that the breakouts are often occuring at 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning (GMT). This makes it difficult to trade! Am I missing something?
Many Thanks (great site)
Steve
