anyway this trade coincided nicely with (james') buying or selling 15 points prior to the big numbers, 00, 50 etc.

Hi gojijuice1,

London opens at 0800H GMT, I enter at 0500H GMT because usually 1-2 hours before the European session, there will be breakout from the Asian High Asian Low. Trading on the price action is the simplest method, enter your orders at GMT 0500H everyday will do fine. Regarding NY DST, there is only slight difference in the movement.
