Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

Hi RP,

Nice system/ strategy!
What are the specific rules for this strategy?

Thanks in advance.
London Session - DOW

The London Session on ES & the DOW offered a few Squeezes this afternoon with a nice Bearish trend. I like the setup on the DOW best so took the trade at this Squeeze and entered as it moved away from the 21 EMA. A nice +56 tick win to get the ball rolling on the YM with my next trade at Open.
The DOW was throwing Bullish Delta (around 300 contract Long imbalance) for the first 5 minutes then got choppy.
I love to "go with the Delta" and jumped in Long but it immediately when Short so 20 tick Loss and reversed the trade for a 28 tick Win so more stress than money here. All I see is green Delta so I finally catch a better bullish move with 3 contracts and make something decent.
All I see is Bulls hitting the market order on the DOW and its really struggling to move up.

Meanwhile ES & NQ are moving fine so I obviously picked the wrong horse at open.

I know Rocky avoids NYO open because of all the crazy action - I just LOVE IT.

PS. My Fav. Squeeze setup is when price rejects the 21EMA during expansion of price, it just seems to KISS its arse goodbye.
PS. BTCUSD has been on a beautiful 1 hour Squeeze setup for two Days - worth a look.

Maybe you/we can start a journal or system thread looking at these squeeze plays. See a couple developing on some lower time frames on a few forex pairs and have questions.
PS. BTCUSD a été sur une belle configuration de compression d'une heure pendant deux jours - cela vaut le coup d'y jeter un œil.

PA just got erratic so BB's pinched twice but no trades, inclined to hang it up for the day.

How do we setup our charts to look like this?

Hi Thomi

WHAT A F…. GREAT MOVE

I got the setup entry from the start at the compression when price retested the 21EMA and stayed there for a couple of days but got shaken out at near that top.

Bitcoin is an incredible Squeeze market particularly on the 1 hour chart where it’s a money tree. Go check out the moves around July where I made some serious dollars. Gold and Oil on the 2 minute chart are also great for intra day traders along with ES and NQ.

Did you take a trade?

I think it's time man. Obviously the interest from other traders is there and youre very knowledgeable.
Yes please Rick please start a thread. Thank you for sharing!
US economic news today made beginning of day pretty simple for 2 nice wins. Then RSI indicating down move that never worked out well 2 trades a B/E and a tiny win. Last 2 trades were a bullish divergence followed by a bearish divergence.

The reason you did not start a thread is the same reason I never started a thread. None will be able to replicate what you or I do, no indicator will help, in fact indicator(s) and entry based on it is only 10% of the whole business of trading. 40% of it is MM(SL, Trailing, SL, +) and other 50% is a MindFuck(Fear and Greed) and ability to hold on to a trading plan with all your might.

No one was able to replicate Rocky's trading..case closed.
Here is a live trading example(from IPhone). Ability to hold to TP for 150 points on each of 2 trades on Dow Futures 10 Min TF - that is where it's at. MindFuck of Fear and Greed did happened, but trained myself(it took few years) to hold to TP according to plan.

Another day of US economic news beginning of day pretty simple following down trend, after first 4 trades it gets more complicated. Got a tiny win and 2 tiny losses, last trade a decent bullish divergence. Was sitting outside trading this morning, it was chilly for here 57F. So hot coffee and a nice fire to keep me warm.
Then a nap in the hammock. Sleep has been erratic last couple of days due to weather changing, screwing up my sinuses. Don't know if I'll trade tomorrow, Halloween party tonight.

Hi Driven

100%

Its not about the strategy, its about embracing the pain of holding onto winning trades while ignoring the voices in your head to take the bloody profit.
Then a better trader will start to APPLY PRESSURE TO THEIR POSITION by adding additional trades at pullback areas.

And still stay in the F.....n trade.

I am on the fence about starting a thread but if I do
I'll place any trader who posts charts on my thread on ignore if they show charts taking quick profits

It is OK, Rocky, you will be alright...with your record of "never having even one losing a day" in the life of this thread (ha ha), it will be an exception.

As I said, no one can trade like Rocky
