Quoting outman

This is a trade I made after the W BEOB in RM with the P that turns back within the D RM after the 2DPB. The way I entered is a Touch Trade and is a very powerful method used in certain circumstances...a methodology that we will study it further in this thread ! 1-the buyers close above the D RM 2- the sellers turn back the P within the old RM Now the trade is free one and I'm looking for the RM's S as the TG ! {image}

i can understand the logic behind your trade.
but if we look on the weekly we see a reversal pattern right on a weekly support in the direction of the main trend!

i will not be suprised if the price will reach the 0.9700 level as a first target.

The TT require a different menthality and a different approach that gives you the vantage of very fast MM in order to put your trade on safe as quick as possible ! My trade was based spacially on the W BEOB in RM + the 2DPB that closed bello the 0.95 BRN. Selleing very close to the D RM R level gaved me the opportunity to make a good MM in a very tight space.

Hi dfumagalli, mind sharing which pairs you usually looking at ?
Hello,

I look at a lot of pairs and also to some CFDs.

Pairs include:
AUDCAD AUDJPY AUDNZD AUDUSD
CADCHF CADJPY
CHFJPY
EURAUD EURJPY EURGBP EURNZD EURSGD EURUSD
GBPAUD GBPCAD GBPCHF GBPJPY GBPNZD GBPUSD
NZDCAD NZDJPY NZDSGD NZDUSD
USDCAD USDCHF USDJPY USDSEK USDSGD

CFDs / futures
Gold Silver Nasdaq S&P-500 Bund, mini-Dow and Crude Oil.


Some pairs I only check out for very evident setup as they are harder to trade with no corresponding reward. This tends to be USDCAD, EURUSD, in general pairs involving CAD or EUR are harder to trade: CAD tends to involve hard to manage, "sliding" range markets, EUR tends to show lots of advanced setups that while "technically pleasing" tend to give less secure trades.
JPY tend to give less immediate profits but with more predictability, smaller stop losses and also obey a lot to Big Round Numbers, to the point you don't even need to draw lines to trade JPY pairs, just have a blank BRN template and trade from BRN to BRN.

Nasdaq is also harder compared to the others.

totally agree. especially usdcad is choppy and hard to predict.

USDCAD is choppy but is not so hard too read and here comes a very important concept...the Trading Psychology....we don't want to trade at any time...we must trade only we know WPD+ WPG and to have the patient for waiting these kind of market situations.
The pair is choppy but is always respect what we are reading on the charts..because of many RMs the most difficult part is the MM of trades !

Here is a pair that requires patience and not to jump in as soon as we see a PB at the dynamic R.
A close above the TL will have very close the RM R level and this makes hard the MM, so the safiest buy of this pair is above the W RM with the confirmation that the RM turned in S, meanwhile the safiest way to sell it is bellow the W RM with the dynamic S as the main TG !

Hi fxgroup,

Newbie to PA here.
After spending countless hours with indicators and intraday charts I have finally decided to learn PA on higher TFs.
I'm still on page 11 of your thread and hope to catch up soon. Excellent information!

Thank you and fantastic job!!!

EURAUD Weekly.

P is again approaching this middle support/resistance flip zone ( yellow area ), if it closes like that : the 1st bullish candle after 8 more or less bearish candles. This can also give us further clues on what might happen in AUDUSD.

At the moment I still don`t want to trade EURAUD, best is to adhere to fxgroup´s recommendation for patience.

Only the best for you all,

Mike

Thank you very much for your starting this thread! I really find the information you share with us very useful. I only hope I will be able to use it properly also in lowe TF like 30MIN or an hour.

Keep it up please!

Hello everyone,
GOLD.
WPD= RM
Montly long-term trends is bullish
Montly short-term trends is bearish
In weekly P close above 1557.10 support with a PB (buyers presence), forming Double/Triple Bottom.

WPG= P is going to medium level 1674.49 and then to dynamic R.

My plan is to wait a PA candle on daily chart and with a strict MM, perform long trade.

to FXGroup: This trade can be considered as Touch Trade?

Hi vody..as you see on the M chart the buyers put a IPB as a DB=RM confirmation....the IPB have the elements for an inversion of the trend bearish WITHIN the M RM.
Of course it is always safer to trade with the main trend even within RM,but the IPB gave me all the information that the buyers are in controll at the RM's S. As you see I used the IPB just as information and not as trigger, waiting for further confirmation on lower TFs ( W+ D ) !

I think you are on the right path ....we see that 1.55 BRN was a very strong S for the RM above it, the P closed bellow it and now the old S act as R !
It would have been much easier if the IB/ PB would have been closed within the small previous RM ( bellow 1.5345 ) !
I remember we had a discussion about where the P will make its RET after it closed bellow the RM and we said that we will wait the P at 1.5460...coincidence ?...we know what we are doing and all we do is based on price !

EURNZD

1-the sellers closed bellow the W RM
2-RET to the old RM's S
3-the buyers take the level's control with the PB+ PB on D as confirmation.....WPG..right at our TG...and the W chart shows how important is to use the O/ C in order to identify the S/ R levels !
