Splitting the Market profile into meaningful distributions is something I get questions about. I have said that I split the Profile when there has been a breakout from balance. This is when you see an abnormally long 30 minute period that covers more prices than normal. It looks like an obvious new start to something. I do this by toggling the TPOs so that everything is open and I can see the length of each letter of the TPOs. I then create splits at the longest letters and make a Profile out of each distribution I find. I then have a look whether any profiles should be merged if they overlap a lot. It's trial and error until I see something that is meaningful. I end up with good support and resistance information from the VAs and POCs.
Splitting a true 24 hour market such as currencies and particularly the 6E has some added benefits and challenges. I have looked at this in several ways. One way is to try and split the 24 hour profile into its three main timezones and look at those separately, splitting each time zone into distributions when there is a new balance. Another way is to look at only the main time zone - Europe- and chart ONLY that Profile and work off that. Yet another way is to chart only YOUR timezone and work off that.
Which one is best? Depends on which gives you the information you need. I find that with the ES, although I look at what has happened on a 24 hour basis, it is the RTH Profile that I use for my main support and resistance. I am still not sure with the 6E as the Euro v Dollar relationship is impacted by all sorts of news that can appear any time in the 24 hour cycle.
ELmom: I've had people asking about my ELmom indicator. As I said in one of the comments or posts, I have summarised some of my trading plan into an indicator - with lots of alternative rules. This way, I can see quite quickly when a setup is possible. By making a lot of "or" statements and "and" statements in different combinations, I was able to distill a lot into one red-green light indicator. It just makes it quicker to see the forest rather than individual trees. This is my trading plan so is not sharable, but anyone can create an indicator like this type of indicator by putting in the cumulative and alternative conditions from your trading plan.
Today's trading started in the 6E in the morning London time and switched to the ES just before RTH. The Gap Trade up to previous day's VAH worked. The break down was a bit harder. parallel horizontal EMAs held the first short trade but even had I lost patience, I had a second bite at the trade after the support broke. My one and only and favourite Fib number held with the market going sideways into London dinner time. The chart shows it all.
