trading the tail
When I worked in Hong Kong, I knew of a trader that only traded the overlap or shadow from the end of one day session into the early part of the next. He made a few points every day on the Hang Seng.
Shaun's method reminded me of that, so I hope he does not mind that I have done some stats on cable to show the probabilities if you automate an entry order at the New York close. It is possible to fine-tune for each market to increase accuracy and profitability.
My recommendations are given below. By increasing gain:loss from 1:1 to 1.5:1, monthly ROCE will rise from 80% to 377% on a theoretical 50:50 win:lose performance. If anyone is interested, I can publish the performance projections.
