hey guys this chart really threw me off and left me frustrated with all the basing candles, just showing my analysis comments welcome thanks.
daily-4hr-1hr.....threw the weekly in to show overall price movement.
Weekly= range bound
daily= we broke up trend momentum then broke demand zones creating a downtrend on the daily but made with below with small candles (thinking its a weak drop and expecting price you go threw it later on).
4Hr= We have downtrend with broken momentum lines (created demand)

Hey AKT

When finding curve levels, do the levels have to break a momentum trend line or take out an opposing supply/demand level to be verified, or are you mainly looking for strong moves away ?

Thank you!

Please allow me to comment if you dont mind, the zone (supply/demand) acquire its status use following way:

1) break of momentum trend line, will auto acquire zone status.
2) kill the opposite zone ( the take out zone on its path/way at least 2 zone)
3) zone formed in the middle will inherit the zone before it

lets see what other say

{quote} Hello minosd If i may, the decision matrix did not allow a short on the 8hr chart because it was too aggressive Please note, aggressive does not mean "bad". It just means that, "aggressive" and so such trades should be managed as such. Please see the chart. best wishes{image}
Thx for the feed back Akt! I would say the aud jpy trade possibility is also too aggresive since opposing DZ is not broken yet

Hello AKT, I recently found your youtube channel and this thread. I've been watching your videos but cant find one where you explain what are the rules of how you find the S/D zones, you talk about trend lines, you make categories of the zones but dont get how you find them. And what are the orange candles on your charts, does that helps you to find the S/D zones? thanks.
Hello thekrash
Welcome to T.I.O.F
Good to meet you.

It's all in there. If i may suggest, please watch the back to basics videos and the webinar, all on the channel.
They should help in answering your queries.

Hello dluxx
Very nice to meet you
Welcome to T.I.O.F

there really is nothing in the form of "the right" timeframes to trade, not at all.
If i may please suggest, think more of the purpose for the trade in helping you decide what sequence you will consider. In addition, your type of personality and internal constitution will come into play as well in that decision.

If for example you are a "day trader" but you are more of the patient type, you may not mind entering on a one hour chart. However, if you are of the type that wants to be in the market more frequently a 15min chart may be way too big and you would prefer a 5 or 2min chart.

Please note, something very important and thank you for bringing this up, i have been meaning to mention it for a little while.... it is the issue of asset suitability.

What i mean is this, broadly speaking, retail traders generally have access to 4 main markets - Forex, Futures, Stocks and Options, as trading vehicles.
Now, some of these markets are better suited for particular trading purposes than others, for various reasons.

For example, the futures market is a centralized, heavily and well regulated liquid market compared to the Forex market which is an unregulated over-the-counter market where you may often have conflicts of interest that one would otherwise not have in the futures and options space.

So in choosing instruments for a particular purpose, this is something you may wish to consider as well. Forex and options for example are better suited for a more longer term swing and position approach (doesn't mean one can't day-trade forex, it just means it is not as well suited for day trading as for swing or position trading). Futures is better suited for short term trading. Stocks are suitable for both short and long term trading. The downside there is that the outlay for stocks is much more expensive.

I hope that helps

Nice trade AKT.
Just curious to know whether you took a SAF or confirmation entry on the M60 TF

Actually its anxiety more than curiosity because lately, i have developed a bad habit of taking taking all levels in my way which has hampered my account(though its demo)
I'm confident in taking trades where all the timeframes in my TDA are giving a same signal.
But get muddled when any one of them are differs
Somehow, I've drifted far away from the basics, will be going through the back to basics videos again this weekend.

Hello vickybha

Hang in there.
its a good idea to review from time to time, say after every 20 or 30 trades.
Going over your process.
My guys and i were just doing that last week into this week as well.

As for this trade, you could have taken either, that's why i showed the entry on the 4hr and on the 60min

Hello minosd

Yes and no.
The decision as to what to do was already made before i even got to the 1hr chart.
The 1hr chart was a refinement if you like, the trade could have been taken at the 4hr as well
Price was in an uptrend and pulled back into daily demand
Then went down to smaller time-frames to time the entry
