Final Notes: H4 Parabolic and ROMAR, H2 ROMAR, and H1 ROMAR formed a confluence of resistance all within the s/r levels provided on the Daily. I'd say we're looking for a short, the only thing worrying me is that the H2 and H1 Fibos are all green. I'm not sure how to integrate that into my plan. Entry: Short on an H2 open below Smooth, targeting Daily ROMAR.
Evaluation: No trade was placed. I think the Fibos being green were the indication that the upswing wasn't finished, even with the ROMAR resistance there. Maybe a stronger signal for a short bias would have been divergence attaching to a top. (?)

Hi, there were no short possibilities as ROMAR is trying yo sync on all charts and also to balance Purple. After yesterdays Daily Romar touch the momentum was enough to push market through all ROMARS and flip them to SYNC. it was a classical FIBO flip situation and trend beautifuly changed directions and now is going for up. The real resistance right now is only H2 and Daily 61.8 but even that won't stop market climbing up till daily Purple balance. New daily candle also starts with EMA support so i am considering tomorrows trade also a long.

Daily:
ROMAR: Support
EMA: Support
Parabolic: Support
EMA Arrow: Up
MACD Arrow: Up
DB/SAR Attachment: Top
Fibo: Green/Up

Notes: The Daily is in consolidation, the last DB/SAR attachment is at a top, Fibo is still green, and Purple is crossing Smooth for the down. The market is currently between White/Smooth as resistance and EMA as support.

4 Hour:
ROMAR: Support
EMA: Support
Parabolic: Support
DB/SAR Attachment: Top
Fibo: Green/Up

Notes: The H4 is in an uptrend.

2 Hour:
ROMAR: Support
EMA: Support
Parabolic: Support
EMA Arrow: Up
MACD Arrow: Up
Fibo: Green
DB: Top
SAR: Bottom

Notes: H2 Purple has crossed down over White, and the market is looking for support at EMA. Next bar should tell if it's going to be a slider or a reversal, depending
on if Purple crosses Smooth.

1 Hour:
ROMAR: Support
EMA: Support
Parabolic: Support
EMA Arrow: Down
MACD Arrow: Down
Fibo: Red/Down
DB: Top
SAR: Bottom

Notes: H1 is in consolidation, with Purple having crossed both White and Smooth for the down and the market underneath Parabolic support.

Entry Long: If H1 comes back into sync with the uptrend, buy on open at support.
Entry Short: No good shorts available, as longer-term charts are in an uptrend and the market is too close to H2 ROMAR and other major supports

No entry : My plan is long off support, but market only retrace to EMA with SAR attachment, which i see is not too deep, for going long
Rules :
1. Pip count to resistance is not enough (resistance here is H2 DB/SAR+divergence) to trigger the green divergence
2. Caution when trading US open on Friday especially NFP day
3. Trade demo like we trade Live so i wont risk any my demo balance

Entry Long: If H1 comes back into sync with the uptrend, buy on open at support. Entry Short: No good shorts available, as longer-term charts are in an uptrend and the market is too close to H2 ROMAR and other major supports
Evaluation: No trade was taken, as buy the time the H1 came back into sync the market was already at the Daily horsemen resistance levels. As it's Friday and getting into the afternoon no trade will be taken.

Here's my +40 over the course of yesterday and today.

I've never traded demo or otherwise at this time of day (before the 1700 open), however I needed to revisit another failure I had in a previous trade.

Can anyone recognise the pattern between what our blessed friend Dana explained in his post 12331, and what happened yesterday?

"Take a look at the H1 and you will see how ROMAR is holding resistance for many hours with the Parabolic holding support. This is indicating the beginning of the ROMAR sequence crossing EMA from one chart to the next."

Well that's what I saw here and took entry;

H2

Only thing I'm not sure of is the risk of carrying a +40 trade through into a new open with the spread? But I had to try for my own satisfaction anyway!

I think the point I'm trying to make is that my fellow traders are reading the posts that are given as learning, but you really need to attempt to understand fully, write in your journal and backtest, wait for similar pattern and go for it - otherwise you are not really learning imho.....

{quote} Hi Pipon Here is the chart you posted: {image} Ok, what do you see on the bottom with the DB/SAR? The Light Sky Blue. You know that the market will get below that low and trigger the Gold Hidden Divergence, so just making sure you had +40 to that point was keeping it really simple. Here is the "after" chart: {image} You see? Hope that helps. Cheers Shaun
Hi Shinny I wondered if I could ask a question.... How did you know the hidden divergence would be triggered this time when it wasn;t triggered on the previous low at 132.90 ( the previous Friday the 1st DEC ) ? the light sky blue divergence also attached then and price retraced up to PSAR and made a lower high at 134.03. I struggle with divergences and think I'm missing something obvious...! Dove said that the sar has to attach at PSAR for this to happen ( post 11877 ) , any help much appreciated, thanks.

Hi Derek

The big thing with that situation is the distance from the PSAR back down to that swing low with the DB/SAR and Light Sky Blue. Off the top of my head I don't know what it is but its a big distance.

If I remember correctly there was a trader or maybe two that posted a plan with the entry short, they had to wait a bit but they got the 40 on the next move down. Also, check out the 4hr chart in these scenarios because it helps you a lot.

Quite a lot of what happens in The Paradox scenarios is sequential, depending on where Support or Resistance is. So in this Scenario, we had the Daily Fibo still up, and ROMAR as Support. So initially, you are heading to 2hr ROMAR, and that was done on that first spike down. Next, your getting a LH with the DB/SAR (SAR on 4hr) with the Light Sky Blue etc etc.

What was very interesting on this move was the 4hr - it told you from the top that it was heading to 4hr Support, and if you kept an eye on the fib you knew it was flipping on the Daily ROMAR.

I have said before that I spent quite a lot of time just trading the turn on 10 or so pairs, so trading the Daily turn up, down, sideways etc because that is where I was having issues occasionally because I wasn't paying attention to the Daily. Each chart has its important part to play in that, so make sure you use your 4hr chart too because its very powerful.

Every time I see a Daily chart with Magenta or Light Sky Blue I think "there is some unfinished business"!! Support and Resistance, that is basically it, and it is everywhere on the chart, and the Paradox is the only system I have seen that gives you a visual on ALL S/R and the entries to safely trade to them, off them, between them etc.

Cheers

Shaun
