Was this SP today?

@Brent Coffy I was able to zoom in and see it is a 30s lower time frame. I am on 1 minute and can’t replicate this.
I am definitely going to need to do better with keeping up with the calendar.
Obviously the FOMC was yesterday, but I failed to keep up with the routine of checking my us.econoday.com calendar and didn’t realize today was GDP and Jobless Claims day today.

I did the same thing. I posted about my experience as well. Took a trade I shouldn’t have been in and got a really bad fill way below my stop loss because that spike was so fast. Lesson learned!
Might Not Get Your Fill Price!!!
Got up late, got to work late, didn’t do any pre-work. Got an alert at 1:26 that supply had formed. Quickly made the order. Checked later in the afternoon and saw my stop loss was hit. Bummer but no big deal. But wait… I lost 60% more than what I should have??? Well once I realized today was FOMC accounting for the big drop at 2 I knew I entered a trade I shouldn’t have. Kyle advises against this. But why did my stop loss not trigger? Looks like it did but because of the massive volatility during the announcement the spread was apparently very wide. My actual fill was much lower than expected. I’ve seen this in options during earnings Anyhow I hope this reinforces why trading on these volatile days might be a bad idea….

@Angie Boule Bugs me because if I would have checked Forex Factory calendar, or listed to Kyle’s pre-market, or looked at this discussion I would have been and should have been aware of FOMC today. I just skipped all of that because my morning was rushed. Whoops!!! Lesson learned!

@Kenneth Ivie if I understand your question…. In a normal market your actual fill and stop loss is usually pretty tight .25. But when a news event occurs the difference between the bid and ask can become very wide. And on top of that it may take a moment for the order to fill after it is triggered. If price action drops 5 fulls points in just a second or two…. You get what you get. This can happen technically at any time if news breaks, but these events listed previously are known to generate this market response. And that is why we should avoid the uncertainty. Otherwise it is just gambling

Hello Kyle. Got volunteered for a new more demanding position at work :( Haven’t really done anything since early September but I’ve spent several months getting PAs in place and am now having difficulty catching trades. Very interested in this though. Do you have some back testing results you might be able to share and info on what/how this works?

Oh my I would love anything that could potentially add consistency to my trading. And ability for alerts would be awesome. I’ve managed to trade well enough in spurts over the last 9 months to build up to 20 PAs. And that’s not one day to pass stuff. Most took several weeks and a descent number of trades. It seems like once crossing over into PA land I take several losers, then stop and practice again painting trade boxes real time as if actually trading. Would have lost PAs I would have been trading had I not paused. I know the potential is there. I’m just really fighting consistency.

A thousand hours of “YouTube” training looking for repeatable “edge”. Looking forward to what Kyle and this community can do to solve that problem!
