Plan the Trade

its all about waiting for setup and then getting a supply or demand bar (thrust bar/impulse bar)

..not enough thrust on this one?

I couldn't resist accidently hit flatten got 13 more instead of 20

the entry would have been that little blue bar that was the pullback candle no fill

ah, ok.

I look for supply or demand at the pullback area

..i would have been looking to short this pullback..structure seemed to be breaking short - why didn't you take this one?..was it because it wasn't a 2b or 123 break?

I saw no pullback where you have drawn line last pullback was around 935 red candle followed by thrust bar on 133 tick chart you cant take every nook and cranny just the obvious ones

ok, thx - confused myself on this one.

uploading a short video on todays session and showing and telling where and why I take the pullbacks I take

thanks cg perfect picture

It's that discretion thing again, isn't it?)

You know you just build a picture and learn to see certain things, subconsciously. I love the way that you pick out the winners and even though, a year ago, you were already having great success, everyone can see that the rate has improved greatly since...

its not all discretion there has to be a pullback followed by a thrust bar(that's objective)then there market structure HHHL LLLH 123 2b(more objective)

Thrust bars....
I'm using transact on demo, 133 candles yet mine are a bit different to H's, not too sure why since it's from the same source, maybe because I'm over the water in the UK, time lag! maybe it's due to the way sierra interprets the incoming data - during the 1st hour it's fast....
My point being someone may see a nice full large thrust bar whereas someone else may see something a bit different eg 2 decent bars with tails.
I'm thinking it's more important to "realize" the "thrust away" from a supply/demand area?
Hope this makes sense.

Got the automated BE and TP setup working as per H's screenshots, works well, entered some trades and they were over in seconds today, I definitely couldn't manage moving them manually. Are the BE & TP lodged with the server or is it Sierra that sends out the trades? just wondering in case there is a loss of internet connectivity.

Good trading H

Some trades today.. I was using the DOM to trade before, now I trade right from the charts.. It's way better.

Nice trading focus

I tend to see things in phases and i am fairly sure that i either would have left that trade alone, or at least got out quickly.

Unless the phase is printing a diagonal, they tend to stay in channels, so deeper pullbacks that break out of a channel may be in a different trend;
