Hi everybody.
Im trying to set up my drifter bot but to be honest I dont exactly know how many ticks the drifter should go for and the same regarding the time it happens.
For now im using "relative historic odds" condition with 60 secs and 5 ticks but im not sure if thats the proper description of a drifter.
Could any PRO answer this one ?
PS: Talkin about preoff. 5mins before start.

You've asked the question people skip over or daren't query whenever the term is used. It subjective so when you actually need to quantify it there's no objective definition. It could be 10ticks in a min or 20 in 4 hours, and is it a 'drifter' if it's not reaching new highs? And was a few quid at high prices an hour ago actually even a high.
The answer is it's whenever you want it to be, and if you find a definition that reliably gives you a useful indicator then just use that. But expect it to be different for different types of market.
