Disliked@lemercenaire: Thanks for taking the time to answer It's getting clearer. Let me post a screenshot of yesterday's DZ, on UC, and I've show what I understood from your post. Could you tell me if that's correct? Also, when you say a target of 5%, what's the % of? the size of the body? And let's say you target 5 pips on each setup, what's the SL? Dead zone, using the wicks: {image} Dead zone, using the body: {image} After that, I should not bother you anymore. Not promising anything though.Ignored
Taking your first example and assuming we are trading the candle marked 'A' as you seem to be...
Trade #1 is Short as price crosses the candle's Low.

Trade #2 - after the Short failed - is Long into the body (as price leaves the WZ).

Trade #3 - as price breaks Long at the High level.

Somewhere in there, the original failed Short will be closed. This would either be at the entry of trade #2 (could backfire if price then turned again, as this lower wick is small), at the 50% retrace level, or the entry to trade #3.
I will be down on the 5-min or 1-min as well to scalp into this retrace to build the positive and reduce the negative.
