2-Day Trade Protection Strategy – What to Do If Trades Don’t Move
2 Days Protection Time Calculation for Safe Trading
Time Zone Used for Calculation: AEDT (GMT +11)
Reason for Following This Time for Trade Protection: AEDT 12:00 AM
The US market opens around 12:00 AM AEDT. After the US market opens, the direction of the market changes, so we use this trade protection step after the US market opens.
Another reason is that most traders around the world are highly active at this time.
Protect your trade at these times – AEDT 12:00 AM (GMT +11).
In the above image, You can see the AEDT (GMT +11) to local time conversions for different regions around the world.
If you are from any of these regions, protect your trade at the listed time.
Example for Time
If you are from Dubai, protect your trades at 5 PM (Dubai Time).
If you are from London, protect your trades at 2 PM (London time).
If you are from the USA, protect your trades at 9 AM (New York time).
If you are from India, protect your trades at 6.30 PM (Indian time).

Example for 2 Days Calculation
Example 1: Protecting after 47.5 hours
If the Signal is given on Tuesday 12:30 AM AEDT time (which is Monday 9:30 AM New York time). See below image:
The trade protection should be carried out on Thursday 12:00 AM AEDT time (which is Wednesday 9:00 AM New York time). Check below:
Result: Trade protection carried out after 47.5 hours (Trade executed at 9:30 AM Monday New York time and Trade protection carried out at 9:00 AM Wednesday New York time).
Example 2: Protecting after 25.0 hours
If the Signal is given on Monday 11:00 PM AEDT (Monday 8:00 AM New York time). Check below image:
The trade protection should be carried out on Wednesday 12:00 AM AEDT (Tuesday 9:00 AM New York time).
Result: Trade protection carried out after 25.0 hours (Trade executed at 8:00 AM Monday New York Time and Trade protection carried out at 9:00 AM Tuesday New York time).
Now, if you look at the New York Times alone, the trade protection is carried out after 25 hours. But as per AEDT time, 2 days are completed (signal day: Monday 11:00 PM (1 hour) + next day: Tuesday 24 hours).
