Topic: Forex Gap Strategy 85% time win

Hi Traders, I have seen in several places that the gaps strategy is successful, even claiming 85% of the time. I tried to introduce it into FSB but I have not achieved, the logic is very simple and does not need just opening conditions. Have you tried to implement it before someone, you know how?

I leave a link where you see the effectiveness and simplicity of the strategy.

It's better to describe the strategy here, put screenshots and eventually backtest it with FSB instead of posting only links.

...

Here is shown how we can check for gap in FSB. The screen shot is from daily EURUSD data.

Gap Strategy

Re: Forex Gap Strategy 85% time win

I made a Gap custom indicator here: Gap Indicator. It accepts a Minimum Gap parameter. You can try simulating the strategy with it.
