hi AKT and other traders. Hope you guys passed a very good week.


I am little confused about use of middle chart in a set and forget trade. What I understand is, if I found a set and forget setup at highest time frame, middle chart used to find a zone inside highest TF zone and to set TP. And there is no use of lowest TF. am I misunderstood?

And about confirmation trade, In entry TF If price break TL before retrace to potential S/D zone inside highest TF zone, should I ignore that TL break or there is anything else I need to consider??

Fellow traders, please help me with this.

Regards,

Shuvo

shuvo, your EUR/CAD is a short, use smaller lot sizes and wider stops, and multiple lots, fade the top, same as EUR/AUD its a short, again smaller sizes wider stops, your EA trade your stop is too tight, 15-20 pip minimum above the zone is best, so a spike up doesnt take you out.

Hi Akt, thank you for sharing.
Another question came up to you and to others: why are we using 3 time frames, I mean why not 2, first for zones and second for entries?

Hello rmrf . Thanks for your valuable suggestion. I really don't know the technique to use multiple lots. Would you mind to teach me that technique, please...

And actually I am trying to confirm whether my thought process is correct or not - on both views (confirmation and set & forget).

Hello everyone. The next chapter in the T.I.O.F series on trading Inconsistent Consistency When I began trading over a decade ago, the longer I spent in trading circles, facing the same challenges as all new speculators, having some wins, and many losses, the more frustrated I got. I kept hearing and reading, “the goal of every trader is to make money consistently”, “the aim is to be consistent”. Many of us have the experience of being consistently inconsistent in out trading results, some good days and many hard days. Then I came across the idea...

Hello papabless
Here you go,

they are on the thread, just a series of articles i am writing, putting my thoughts to paper about trading in general and considering the retail trader and his journey in the world of trading. They are spread out on the thread, started a couple of months ago i think.

Hello shuvo
Great question.
As Blaster also asked, why 3 and not 2 timeframes.

Let us talk.

I am sure we all know someone who has had an imaging study done on them before at one point or the other, whether that is an MRI, a CT scan, an X-ray or a simple Ultrasound scan.
During the investigation, the clinician always takes multiple views or shots or slices of the same organ or body part he/she is investigating. Why is that. Why not just take one view and be done with it?

The reason is this, when a doctor sends a patient for an investigation, he/she wants a holistic view of the body part in question. He/she wants to view the same body part from different angles so as to be able to see what is going on before making a decision regarding the most appropriate treatment.

Now let us switch that to trading. We look at multiple timeframes for the exact same reason. It is still the same market, viewed from different perspectives.

"Multiple" timeframes as the name suggests, just means using more than one. Each one has a purpose. S.A.D traders have a number of ways of doing multiple timeframe analysis.

A common and simple way is with the first chart, determine the overall trend and to help with the decision as to which direction carries the higher probability, buying or selling. Once that decision is made the second timeframe can be used to look at zones that would go with the thesis developed looking from the first time frame. The zones can be found on the second timeframe.

2 is good but often not enough. The third timeframe can then be used to refine the entry so as to maximise position size, entries and stop placement.

The 3 timeframes serve different "primary" functions. They are not all created equal.

Hello shuvo, thank you for sharing your thoughts on this pair
If i may, it would probably be higher probability to short once the 1.7080 price level is removed, because that DBR DZ is still holding

Thing is USDCAD is sideways for both weekly and daily.
I do not think we can take a Set and Forget trade in this scenario.

My thoughts on USDCAD:
1. Monthly - equilibrium;
2. Weekly - demand created, supply taken out, BUT momentum trend line broken;
3. Daily - new supply zone created.
Conclusion: we can look for short entries, but only with confirmation on a smaller time frame (H1-H4).

Hello Blasterh22
i concur
One note, on the weekly, demand is yet to be removed so going long using this sequence is a higher probability
