Diamonds Trading Signals Trade Plan

UK Retail Sales - 4:30am NY time (Thursday, November 14)

--–––––————————————————————–––––--​

Traded currency pair:GBPUSD
Initial spike duration limit:15 seconds
Initial spike price action threshold:12 pips
Triggering retracement percentage:35 %
Retracement duration limit:40 seconds
Maximum trade hold time after release:10 minutes
Stop loss:10 pips
Take profit:10 pips
Maximum spread:2 pips


  1. If between 04:30:00am and 04:30:15am, so during the first 15 seconds you see GBPUSD move up or down by 12 pips or more, then enter in the direction of the initial spike at the very first 35% retracement if it doesn't take more than 40 seconds (till 04:30:40am) – 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 12 pips during the first 15 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 04:40:00am, so 10 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.

Actually I've never experienced such behavior but it has been reported some times... New major version is under construction and hopefully it will never miss a click - or at least it will properly monitor what is going on inside in order to fix any issue.
