Nice. Yeah, trading/traded everything. Options, stocks, pennies (still actually my most profitable of the group), currencies, and of course the futures. Mostly just stocks now though and if I feel like giving anything back I switch to currencies. That market has made a joke of me. Anything that doesn't trade during normal market hours I shouldn't be trading lol.

Ahh I see. Do you use price action to get you in? Also is there a lot of tolerance in it? A lot of guys use price action and IMO that is probably one of the better ways to trade it. It will give you risk, position size, and the entry. The problem is that you will have wide range bars that will obviously give too much risk.
Also, it significantly adds to slippage. You completely ignore those. Neutral periods are just part of the game though really. I personally wouldn't mess with it Jon.

If you want, maybe a volume signal or ATR signal to compliment? Otherwise, also try switching to a lower TF for PA signals and see if that helps. Use the indicator on whatever TF you use, and then take signals based on a 1 min or 5 min. Should help in the slippage dept.

I'd love to see the indicator. If needs minor tweaking PA will definitely be perfect for it.
