Case Study 1: USD/JPY M1 Breakout Buy

During an active M1 session, USD/JPY held below the average daily price level before the Gann Activator line turned lime green, suggesting bullish momentum.

When a candle closed clearly above the purple level, a buy trade was placed at the next candle open.

The stop loss was situated just below the breakout candle low.

Price climbed quickly, and the position reached a 12 pip gain before the Gann line started to flatten, signaling it was time to exit.

Case Study 2: EUR/GBP M5 Breakout Sell

On the M5 chart, EUR/GBP spent time around the average daily level before the Gann Activator line turned orange, indicating a bearish bias.

A candle then closed below the purple daily range level, triggering a sell breakout.

A short trade was initiated at the next candle with the stop loss above the breakout candle high.

Price moved downward with momentum. Instead of waiting for opposite support, the trade exited when the Gann Activator line turned lime green again, securing a quick 15 pip move.
