to get the direction bias
start from w1 bearish and bullish engulfing candles and switch to next time frame
drawing the d1 engulfing candles as near as possible to the current market price.
the bearish engulf shifted down quite a lot while the bullish engulf remains within the zone.
keep on shifting down the time frame and adjusting the engulfing candles around the current market price.
it is obvious that the engulfing candles indicated down trend.
keep on adjusting the time frame and engulfing candles until your own entry time frame.
example on my gbpaud trades.

I just wanted to point out this super engulfing on UJ daily. however, the swap fees in the UJ are still far too high to hold shorts overnight.

Hey Inthebox,

I took this right now on demo. Nasdaq M30 Engluf fail from inside H4 Engluf.

I hope this is correct and makes sense.

today is friday.
the main news driver is in new york session.

wait retest for long.
there are 2 bullish zone h4 and h1. which one?
if there is no ltf set up, then that's not the zone to long.

if taking short, the range is between the 2 h1 engulfs.

for me 30pips a day would be great, considering i am using very small lot size which is 8% per day .
