I closed this trade ahead of BOJ. TP or SL was not hit. IMO at time when I entered long - there was no trade. Price hit Romar as support on D1, PSAR on H2 and DB was attached on bottom, but Purple was already crossed white for down, candle opened below EMA and EMA arrow was directed down too (H2). It was risky to entered in any direction so I should have waited for better possibility.

Hello Traders

Here is my entry for today:

I went long from Daily Support - ROMAR. We had multiple touches, a double bottom or even an inverted head and shoulders, whatever you want to say, but the main thing is we were coming off Daily ROMAR.

For those that went short 25 pips above Daily ROMAR, just think about this for one minute: What is the Paradox System all about? It is 100% about Support and Resistance. What is a major S/R level? ROMAR. Why oh why do you want to sell right on top of Support? Please, please, please don't make it hard for yourselves.

Yesterday the short was a no brainer trade. Look at the EMA/MACD arrow, not in the correct order. The market is going back down again. The MACD stayed Above zero on the fresh low, there is 12+ hour heads up to be ready for a long trade, coming from Daily Support.

On your plans you mention Daily ROMAR, but I don't think anybody really mentioned or appreciated that that was important. That fact was on my mind from the Sunday open, that we are close to ROMAR, what do I need to be paying attention too?

The short yesterday you had 65 pips to support, today there was 25 pips, and that would have taken you right down to the 2hr PSAR flipping for the up!

Write your plans without bias, and just put what you see! For that there is no thinking required. The only time you need to think is applying what you can see to what you know, or what is in this forum and what Dana has taught you.


I have said this a lot of times in the past, but when you are buying when you should be selling and selling when you should be buying, you are actually not that far away from being correct. You just need to engage the thing in your head that God gave you to keep you from doing daft things like selling on top of ROMAR!!!!!

Hope that helps (its intent is to help not upset you).

Regards

Shaun

Hello Traders,

Very powerful post by Shaun, and TraderMarcos. Here is my plan with entry, again offering a slightly different perspective, providing for the same result!

Best Regards,

Chad



Session Sydney: EUR-JPY 10/30/2017

Daily: Opened 4 pips above ROMAR.
ROMAR: Support
EMA: Resistance
Parabolic: Resistance

Notes: EMA crossed Purple, White down. DB down with Blue Divergence attach at 0.0 FIBO. Trend EMA arrow down. MACD zero cross arrow down. FIBO up.

H2
ROMAR: Resistance
EMA: Resistance
Parabolic: Resistance

Notes: Horsemen down. DB / SAR down with Blue and Gold Divergence attach at 0.0 FIBO. Trend EMA arrow down. MACD zero cross arrow up. FIBO up.

H1
ROMAR: Resistance
EMA: Resistance
Parabolic: Eliminated

Notes: Purple in slider with White, and Smooth. EMA holding resistance.

Final Notes: I expect market to go into consolidation before BOJ high impact rate release. H1, H2, and Daily in sync with down trend. Market is in a consolidated down trend. Daily, FIBO flipped for the up, and ROMAR is holding support, and out of balance with Purple. I expect the market to go long based on Daily ROMAR support, and will rebalance with Purple, and target for the market going long. I will enter long position off support.

Adjustments:

Long: Entered long position on new Daily open candle retrace to ROMAR. Set TP +40 SL40.

Result: Took +40 from the market.

Hello Dove
In your first post you said that you are not going to give away the original paradox system but the MT4 version.
Intrusive question:
Do you have an original Paradox version ???
May the Almighty fill you with Blessings.

Hi Shaun
I have some questions about your trade. If you dont mind me asking.
Did you go long at the open of the 12:00 bar?
Did you have SAR or DB on top of 10:00bar?
also was Psar flipped down at the open of bar 12:00bar?
Regards
Devon

A screenshot of the moment i believe you are asking about.
Hope this is helpful.

Edit: Now that i have already posted this image, i find that i'm feeling that maybe i should not have, because if Shinny had of thought it relevant about the things you were asking about, he would likely have discussed them. Perhaps you're wanting to be analysing instead of observing? Which has been - is a habit i have been trying to rid myself of. Analysing sends one up the garden path very quickly. All i'm saying is be careful in the manner in which one studies Force, nothing more. Good trading to you.

There’s been a lot of explanation throughout the thread with regards to the SAR and DB, but I just can’t seem to interpret it properly.

If ROMAR, EMA and 4 Horsemen are in an uptrend, then the SAR and DB are moving together?
Answer: Yes.

So where I get confused is if the SAR detaches from the DB and hits below the Parabolic. I thought that was an entry back into the trend. But I saw the recent post that said, “You never, ever trade opposite of the DB with the SAR.”

If ROMAR is in an uptrend and EMA and 4 Horsemen are in the opposite direction, then the market is in consolidation?
Answer: Yes.

So in consolidation, there’s no repainting?
Answer:Yes.


So no repainting means the SAR and DB aren’t moving together?
Answer: Yes???


Then I read the following posts and kind of got confused with what I thought was correct:

If you get the 4 Horsemen opposite of the ROMAR trend on the H2 you will get both the DB and SAR running together.

Once you get either the DB or SAR locked in then they are set in stone. Either one or both will move from bar to bar in trend. If the high or low is retested then the DB and/or the SAR will reconnect with the new high or low.

This might be the simplest thing to understand, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be the case for me.

most of the time if I want to enter short on 2 hr romar is to look on 4 hr as reference but in ur entry 1 hr romar already support. I was looking for short but in the moment when I look on the 4 hr the 4 horsemen are heavy in the uptrend without even the crossing of white and on the 1 hr chart psar didnt even flip with ema in sync with romar going north to even considering going short. ema crossed smooth on the 4hr and now support. thats why I didnt take the trade short. Not having the best entry can hit your 40sl.
To reach that level of determination is a matter of the will.

Thanks Marcos for your feedback, agree 100% with you. At the time when I entered short I did not realize all those circumstances, but yes - it was risky to take that trade. I have to be more patient.
