Heres a paper by BIS on algos and their structure. Its quite informative. No need to really go through the math if you dont want to text is enough to underatand their functionalities.

Yes I see what you mean. These liquidity hunts on smaller timeframes are indeed regular and I've always had the same idea about what causes them. But correct me if I'm wrong. Assuming someone risks 100m per trade and trades 5m charts (forgetting ...

This is quite the conversation starter thread. I have a very simple and different logic to most of the above. To me it's all about exploiting algorithms to benefit from small fluctuations in the markets. Algos work solely on some complex (but not ...

If anyone is following this approach of trading many pardons i have not posted in a few days. Firstly, it takes time to construct these posts and secondly, this thread's objective is to improve on the technique i.e. add more filters for increasing ...

I'm going to touch base on disequilibrium points again as to how I understand wicks/pins as a signal. Referring to Pic 1. This is the Dax 16 June 15m candles. I have circled all the points of interest. pins pointing down are points of short while ...

Here is what I traded today. Gold is generally my go-to instrument but for the last couple of days its been un-tradable. So Dax is where I turned to. stable market structure and price action currently. Same technique as above. If anyone wants to ...

Lets test this. Gold is relatively volatile due to being at lows due to inflation and high yields and what not. I am looking at the circled areas. for a short. Small trade. Its late in the day so would not recommend it. pic 1: seems like a point of ...

In my attempt to amalgamate my approach, I will go straight to PA before going into details. We can discuss that as we go along. I'm sure we are all familiar with basic price patterns. Strength and weakness patters. Of course those always have to be ...

Here is how I set up my chart. H1 is my primary timeframe. I use 20 EMAs on every time frame. There is a reason for this and ill touch on this later. I use MT5 On the H1 I put up 3 EMAs. 20, 100 and 440. That's an hourly 20, daily 20 and weekly 20 ...

Always hate to start the day with a lost position. Time to recalibrate.

closed all shorts. Switch to buy at 85. stops below 40. Longer term. See you soon.

Anything above 80 cant help bears in my opinion.

Generally bullish yes. Look at May candle. I was just looking for a retrace. dont think there will be any.

This seems to be the case so far some compression here at 84 on lower TF's but nothing convincing. I think I will exit my shorts. 80% position in total closed. 20% left for hope just above high for SL

Scaled out a third of the total position at 80 = -8

Orders are scheduled to execute hourly. 4 hours is a strange candle that doesnt really hold much PA. But then price is fractal on every timeframe. So confusing....

Added another short at 78. Stops above todays high

UJ finally proper bounce 109.16 now testing 25. Gold seems nerve wrecking for bulls. As far as I can see all roads lead south for GU

1883.4 was decent. I missed that. i wouldnt enter here. Many levels down below.
