    Sorry I took a while to respond. No I did not consciously consider the variation in morning vs. afternoon, but I am aware that there is more volume in the morning sessions. My model just takes trades whenever there is a divergence on the 30 & 60 from 8h30-15h30.

    It looks like i am having a losing streak, but I should point out that if I did take the morning setup at 9h30 it would of been profitable. Seems like I am missing the profitable trades

    Remember I am backtesting manually in excel. There is no advantage to morning setups, but trades taken between 12- 1pm tend to be losers.

    so we have a four loss losing streak . KNow that I am not able taking every setup especially the ones in the morning, so I am not too bothered by this losing streak. I am confident that if I took the morning setups I would have at least one profitable trade. The model is barely...
