I will be test drive an extremely simple trading strategy. This is just to prove that no intelligence is required for trading/ making money.
Strategy is the opening hour high/ low breakout system. Nothing great about this. I will just modify and add few points above the first hour high / below the first hour low and take a system generated trade.
My broker allows me to place an intraday order with a predefined stoploss and automatic square off by 3.15 pm. So I can enter an order and then take a day off. This is also called time based exit.
Profits is whatever the markets give. Risk per trade is under 0.5% of trading capital.
Note:
- I will look at the first hour range as defined at 10.00 am and not 10.15 am.
- if first hour range is large, then consider some appropriate SL
- this strategy does not use trailing SL. You exit on SL hit or market close
