The MT4 Trade Panel Indicator is a chart-based trading interface that gives traders quick access to order and position-management functions. Depending on the version, the panel may display controls for market orders, pending orders, lot size, stop-loss, take-profit, spread, and open trade information.Unlike an RSI or moving average, it usually doesn’t generate a traditional buy or sell calculation. Its main role is execution and trade management.For example, a trader analyzing EUR/USD on the 1-hour chart may identify resistance near 1.0870 and wait for a bullish breakout. Once price closes above that level, the trader can use the panel to enter…

Renko analysis differs from traditional time-based charts. Instead of forming a new brick simply because a certain amount of time has passed, Renko logic focuses on a predefined price movement. A bullish brick generally appears after price rises by the required brick size, while a bearish brick forms after the market moves lower by the required amount.The adaptive part changes the way that brick size or directional threshold responds to market conditions.

WTI crude oil on the November contract is trading down $1.64 to $95.60.That’s something of a win for the bears, as it finished last week at $95.94. Since then, we’ve had a mixed series of updates on the pipeline attacks in Saudi Arabia but the latest ones say they’re doing bypasses of the damaged pumping stations and could soon have half of the lost supply back online. I’d take those reports with the usual grain of salt but coupled with large transits through Hormuz and there’s a plausible case for the bears.The x-factor remains Hormuz. Republicans are polling badly and…

Nikkei reports that earlier today the Bank of Japan conducted a ‘rate check’ on FX rates. The move is often seen as a precursor to intervention but can sometimes be a feint.

We’ve also seen intervention after BOJ meetings so all the starts are…
