"Do you scale in, do you scale out, do you move SL to BE, how do you manage exposure,"


Watch some of my live trade videos.

A lot of these topics are demonstrated.


For example, I like to use limits.

Using limits allows you to take out the factor "time" because it is up to the SM when and whethyer you get filled.

However, the causality gives you a GREAT idea at which levels you want to get filled and where you want to get out.

It ain't rocket science.


For example;

If you are short and there is a big green nest around your tp, then TP because there will be at least a pullback in order to "price in" these old DM longies.


Also; when you see the stop cloud and a last MT above the high as well as old longies, this is often a good place to enter a short limit.


These things are quiet easy to see if you follow this thread with a minimum of diligence and effort,

but as always, some ppl here want me to do ALL the work for them.


Why do you think that is fair??

Quoting VEEFX
{quote} I still cannot figure out when you enter, where you put your SL. You have proven your ability to pick direction and target. No doubt about that or the quality of data you are feeding in your charts but where are your ENTRIES and HOW do YOU manage "RISK"? Also, position size will 100% affect the strength/rigor of manipulation. There is no way to avoid it. These are all VERY important questions to ask or show to your readers. "Trade Small Trade Often" is the ONLY answer I could find in my experience so I have particular interest in these outstanding...
Hi VEEFX, he's just showing you the "map" ... the way to the X is with each one.

Are you a believer of this sentence >>> "5% of the traders control the market, 10% follow the 5%, and the other 85% provide liquidity.". It applies to regulated/centralized markets where order flow and volume information is available to everyone on a level playing field. Do you think the same applies in Spot FX decentralized market?

I have always viewed using Limit orders as providing liquidity to the big boys. Knowing all the manipulation, why would you want to wave a flag to your counterparties and tell them this is where I want to enter in the market? To me, that is giving the SM algo more ammo to manipulate the market. Do I have this wrong?

"high conf" setups have an extremely high Win/Loss ratio (above 90%).

"med conf" setups have a high Win/Loss ratio (above 80%).


For position trades (so no scalps), I see the basecase as entering my desired position in ca. 3 steps (sometimes at market plus limits at better prices).

For TPS, it often makes sense to to partial TPs at STS clouds, MTs, PB nests etc.


Sessions can be VERY different. I may have 4 scalps in one session; another time I may have 2 position trades over a week.

The market "dynamics" change a lot and that is NO coincidence;

by the way, that is ALSO what

KILLS most EAs.

The SM is smart for a reason.

"Do you think the same applies in Spot FX decentralized market?"

Basically yes,

but do not fall into the trap many ppl fall into, believing it is all about "liquidity".

NO!

Not in FX! (in futures, it is a different story altogether)

As it should be MORE than clear right now, FX is completely DRIVEN by the SM moving prices against DM;

this in a way, that makes them ALL lose on the DM side eventually;

whether long, short, long-term, short-term, trend-trading, reversal-trading or whatever.


The whole point of this thread is to SHOW you, how the SM actually succeeds in doing that;

which is counter-intuitive, because ppl think that somebody must win.

Well, within the DM tolerance, just a bit / few.

Stay safe,
FF

The implications of that are far-reaching.


Not only does it show that FX is NOT "random".


But it also exposes the world's BIGGEST and most unfair FRAUD.

Agree.. I need to draw my own map in order for my navigation to work. Everyone has to do that and I get that completely. The way I see it, you can be in one or both these two camps

 

  1. Learn and Follow the Manipulation and use that to our benefit
  2. Learn and avoid the manipulation and be the snipper with patience.


I belong in Camp #1 i.e. a) following price to take me where the SMs want via breakout or diversion from mean b) enter where the SMs have already taken price and countertrade/bounce or reversion to mean

Is FF advocating only #2 or both #1 and #2. I cannot decipher that unless I see where he enters.

Investing time in understandig this thread CAN NEVER be wasted time,

because firstly, it is HIGHLY EXCLUSIVE knowledge,

and secondly, no matter how you approach FX or what systems you try, you will NEVER think about the market as you did before.


And above all, as long as I am here, you can benefit from my efforts fro FREE to cross-check your trades with the live charts.

TELL ME, WHO ever did this for you??????

" I cannot decipher that unless I see where he enters."



Invest some hours into going back and looking at the live predicitons in this thread.

Of course, the entries were when these were posted (there are always the newest live shots before).

And guess what, "where" you enter is not even the most important part of the puzzle!

More ppl than you would think have "learned" to read the causality, and these ppl who are dedicated tend to:

- send me PMs
- are not keen on posting here / post here much.


Why?
Probably because they are quite strategic.
That is fine with me.
I will also respect their desired privacy.

Love to all,

The knowledge I have shown here is not even 15% of the overall content.

However, various things are happening in the background, and when I have more time I will do a longer update here.
