Diamonds Trading Signals Trade Plan

UK GDP - 4:30am NY time (Wednesday, February 27)

--–––––————————————————————–––––--​

Traded currency pair:GBPUSD
Initial spike duration limit:20 seconds
Initial spike price action threshold:20 pips
Triggering retracement percentage:30 %
Retracement duration limit:90 seconds
Maximum trade hold time after release:20 minutes
Stop loss:10 pips
Take profit:10 pips
Maximum spread:2 pips


  1. If between 04:30:00am and 04:30:20am, so during the first 20 seconds you see GBPUSD move up or down by 20 pips or more, then enter in the direction of the initial spike at the very first 30% retracement if it doesn't take more than 90 seconds (till 04:31:30am) – and if spread is at 2 pips or less. Set stop/loss at 10 pips, and set take/profit at 10 pips immediately.

  2. If the move either up or down was less than 20 pips during the first 20 seconds, then the actual number of the report did not generate sufficient interest in the market, and you simply skip the trade.

  3. If by 04:50:00am, so 20 minutes after the report release, neither your stop/loss nor your take/profit points were hit, then close the trade automatically at market price of the time.
