I guess I do not fully understand your real question here? Is it your intent to employ a trading methodology which is based on EOD closes? Long Term Trades or Position trades or One day trades? Of course you can do this. There is no real close to the Forex market in my opinion, so you will have to establish one yourself based on your research.
I think this may be a tough road, but that's just my opinion.
Here's a good way to make money in the forex market. Set your close for 5:00 PM EST after the US session. Now forget the close because it is not important in trading.
Instead call it the Open. At 4:00 AM the following day, (European) do the following.
If price is below the Open buy. Sell to cover this when price reaches the Open.
If price is above the Open. Sell short. Buy to cover when price reaches the open.
Throw in a couple rules here. If price is in a runaway state, (maybe more than 60 points or something due to an event don't take the trade. Close the trade around 10:10 if price has not returned to the open no matter what.
You can make all the money you need trading this strategy as there is an underlying reason it works. Stop losses are not allowed so you need to make sure you are working out and your health is good. Coffee should also be consumed well before 8:00.
Good luck and send me 10%. PM me and I will give you my bank account number.
