I was aware that price had closed over the pivot, however and I kept my target modest (roughly the dotted line, which is the m1 Supply Zone).

Good call. Price has continued down (for now).

That's me done for now.

Trade well all and I'll be back for The Dead Zone.

Nice start to Claudia's day... {image}
Was a bit messy early on thought might try 3600. But it worked out with a bit of news.

Should have held the e/j trade !

DE30 and GU did their job south.

EJ .... Waiting for 129.00. Stick to the plan. Monday was inside bar. didn't test the friday High/Lo. From my observation, when inside bar, and the next day it breaks, usually gives a healthy 15-20 pips. But it does retrace, so need to assume the DD. Took my loss -11pips) and entered again 129.25. letting it run.

What I did. Follow it until it retraces.

Yeah. EJ looks like the best Dead Zone option for today as well, assuming it has exhausted itself on the drop.

Yaaaaawwwnnnnnn...

Took EJ for my DZ choice and it's taken the last 30 mins to go about 5 pips total distance travelled in all. There is a chunky Supply blockage on the m5 getting in the way.

It kept just missing my entry trigger long and so, when it dropped down a bit farther to the major Demand Zone below, I went in.

Doing this gave me a head start on the move North that did eventually come. It meant that although at the time of writing, the actual trigger would only have gone +3 or so, the additional pips got me my full +5%.

That'll do me for now.

Dead Zone (Done WZ entry Long + added sauce). +5%

As I posted the above, it looks like we did in fact, just about, get the +5 on the true entry.

Yeah, sorry, didn't realise you weren't aware.

The Dead Zone covers the ''dead air'' in the one hour before the US Open. For the pairs that I scan, they will more often than not clear that range, either as a standard break of the H or L, or as my fav, the WZ move back inside.

The best for this is UC (Mr-T's adopted baby), with EJ, AU, GN and CJ as others to look at. There are a handful of others, to give 11 in total, that I identified as having the best movement profile for the method.

As always, I target the magical +5% and as I have evolved with it, I will sometimes do as I did today and get in at a trigger off of a helpful Supply or Demand zone. Looking for a Set-Up with a major (H1 at least) S+D Zone alongside is now a priority in finding my choice for the day.

The Witching Hour is a variant of the same (specifically for EJ and EG mostly) run over two time-slots...23:00 and Midnight UK time. One will usually run as a continuation trade, the other, a reversal. There is no better one, the two are simply the same but different.

I had dismissed UC for a DZ option, as price was kind of floating about in space. However, once that Supply Zone had formed, it would have been a valid surfing zone - entering as price came down out of the Supply Zone.

Even as a standard DZ entry, it would have brought the percents, however. So, all good.
