Thank you. The DAX is dangerous, you do need to be careful and very, very, quick and decisive - but does perform beautifully (as do the other indices).

I played it as a straight bounce but a nice, valid, 1-2-3 as well...

I bet everyone's grateful for some of the wet stuff down there, going by the crisis around Cape Town and the neighbouring Provinces (my GF's South African).

Glad 1-2-3's working for you .

Hi nozzer.

I have customised a couple of the best indis out there for Supply+Demand Zones .

If you are still unsure of the difference between S+D and Support and Resistance, then I would gently but seriously suggest killing two birds with one stone and Googling:

''Best supply and demand indicator for mt4''

This will give you what you are looking for.

(a) A handful of indi options.
(b) A selection of pages which will give you a rundown of what Supply + Demand actually is and how it differs from Support and Resistance Guestimation Lines.

Learning how to draw your own zones will add a valuable weapon in your armoury and will mean you will understand what your indicators are telling you, not simply have you following them.

It's not difficult but worth doing the legwork yourself. You'll benefit from it in the long run.

{quote} Hi dagoods, I believe I understand your confusion. The 1-2-3 referred to here is the higher low, lower low, high low 3 bar pattern or lower high, higher high, lower high 3 bar pattern. The chart you posted looks like a swing high, swing low. Not the same. I apologize for my ambiguity. {image}{image}
i am joining this discussion very late, and, apologies if this has been asked later in the posting, but, you are advocating placing the entry when price passes back through the open price of candle 0. However, this ASSUMES that candle 1 has formed a new daily high or daily low, this cannot be even confirmed until candle 0 closes, as every bar closing downwards with a lower low will form a new daily low. Candle 0 can swing up and down m any times before it is finished and pass through its open price multiple times, if working one any timeframe. SO at what point in time are you placing yoru order? AFTER the high or low is confirmed by the close of candle 0, or, prior to this?

Hi vanbran. I understand your confusion on that quote, however you are reading info from page 5 of a 306 page thread. Things have moved on and if I may say so, simplified, many times.

Short Trade:
Did Bar #1 make a new H?
Did Bar #2 test that High and fail?
If so, enter as price crosses back over the level of Bar #2 Open.

Reverse for Long Trade.

Lines indi comes via HOLO thread. Edit to suit.

TS has a Template post and file in the Paperclip at the top right of the page (you won't get it to look exactly like his (or some others here) as some of the additions are personal and can't be shared).
