Entries are the arrows after stops get taken out on each of those areas.

Yes there will be losses, small ones if you trade on 1min.

Opportunities? Countless everyday per pair.

If you think this is hard to make money with, I dont know what to say to you.

No technical analysis. No Fundamentals. No Indicators.

Wake up in the morning and get your money.

What are you trying to say with this? However I agree, Once I started using only S/R my account went from 500 USD to 3400 USD in the week of trading. However I deleted everything later once I got "hungry" again. This could be a nice thread.

Yes I would. That was exactly what I did. Works great as long as you follow rules.

Oh, I forgot to say that I was using tick chart because that was much more accurate than 1minute. I even had a site where banks levels were displayed, and on those levels price reversed amazingly even when NFP happened. On 1 minute chart I was unable to get exact entry, but on tick, that was something different. I would say if you want to be accurate, do not use minute but tick chart. You will see a big difference.

Thank you for your reply.
But what do you mean by that?

Because when I think "stops" I think about stoploss but certainly that is not what you meant.

If possible could you zoom in on the chart and show a example of one of yours that worked and one of mine and show why the entry didn't work.

Thank you in advance

It Is impressive, sure. But I should also say that I deleted that account later. I literally stopped using any stoploss and MM. However all my trades were still OK. Funny to say, but account was deleted just because when I run out of margin, price reversed where I wanted. But It was too late.

I'm working on system I will make public later. However it need some work. I want something special. Also you will need tick charts. (Probably). I recommend cTrader for this. I love that platform. Just a friendly advice. I will try to find my old picture with tick vs minute chart comparsion. Should be visible what I mean.

Or I can release system without the needed polishment. I am not sure what I missed. But I do not feel It is ready.

I believe it shows you how much profit (in pips) you get in a trade.

it simply means that you identify a high then that high gets broken and price moves back below that high that is where you enter a short trade.
Have a look at your own number 7 mark, you have drawn a line on the last high, that line gets broken and then price moves back below your line and that is your entry short

Thank you for the explanation.

In that case the place that I marked 6 there is an entry if I extended the line a little bit more to the right.

Whats the exit strategy?
