Sam Seiden's supply and demand - Does it work?

I used Sam Seiden's for 3 months now. I made a lot of beginner's mistakes and still improving and learning.

9 on 10 of CORRECTLY placed supply and demand zones on h4 and higher will work. But you need patience to wait and then you need more patience to price go to near opposite zone for at least 3:1 RR.

Problem is that for 2 first months I thought I draw zones which were not zones at all. And most new people to this method do the same mistakes and give up. They think they mastered the method and are correct, but they are not.

This is much more detailed knowledge than what is floating around about S/R levels.

Some examples from EUR USD

RIght on dogette, I wouldn't consider trading live for any serious money without a live audio squawk, thats what lets you know when its going to reverse if you know how to make sense out of what you hear, which is usually pretty easy!

like a few weeks ago as soon as trump tweeted the dollar was too high, it came across the audio squawk, within 10 seconds the USD started retreating south and has been going south ever since!

of course it works, thats how everything works Supply and demand, best to understand the underlying market mechanics and dont fall for the random BS, PA is never random!

Too many retail traders know (and some use) this method. So you should know what is the chance of it working.

Question is only if your mind can survive low win ratio and watching trends go in opposite direction without a means to join the trend.

Nothing wrong with trying to catch the beginning of a trend. This mindset is ok.

It's whether these levels work.

From my personal experience, these S/D levels do not work if you trade at time frames 1H or lower, i.e for day trading.

Sam Seiden is a trading semi God and should be respected as such. I only got profitablt after watching his free online video on youtube. Of course I developed my own strategy off of his main philosophy. For example I trade multi timeframes with H4 having the strongest zones and M15 the weakest.
The Supply and Demand strategy in particular the fresh zone bounce / reject is what I'm going after. The Supply and Demand also helps me to get my profit target since now we know where it wil most likely have a hard time to continue.
The guy definitely knows what he's talking about and for me this is my main strategy.

is it same like the supply demand indicator or different

its total different. dont's use S&D indicator

For those interested:
Sam's Methods work great if you know how to use them. (even better if you can get a copy of his rules)
His rules explain why some levels have more strength than others.

I am a day trader.
I use this method for my over all market analysis for each instrument I trade.
It helps me identify key areas where SOMETHING may happen... bounce - stall - breakout and retest - false breakout...

On a daily basis I use something similar for intraday levels between these longer term levels.

But to clarify, these are levels of interest...
I watch price action at these levels for entry, looking for specific setups.
This gives me lower risk entries.

Remember these are zones, so within the zone you apply your entry method.

Just what works for me
Take it or leave it.!!!
Good trading

It works.

Hello,

I recently start to trade by only Supply and demand with price action in order to simplify and to get a clearer view of what's happening now.
By the way, i heard a lot about that Mr Sam Seiden, can someone give links for sharing please?

Thanks,

Best regards

I'm kinda new to this great forex trading forum, but I must say, I am having a hella time here.
I don't know if the S&D strategy still works for you but it does for me right now.
I love your comment about the car and the driver though. It can be perfectly related to the system and the trader theory as well.

Peace.

This guy should be given an Accolade. I mean, it's simple logic. The charts don't show where big guys and banks and financial institutions are placing their orders. If we knew this, then maybe, they'll finally understand supply and demand; which is what we practise everytime we go to a grocery store or an electronic store to buy something.
But low, sell high;
Sam just came up with a method to help know when and where to do this.

Your charts look awesome.. You correctly guessed both supply and demand zones. .. I applaud you.

The best indicator to search for zones and supply and demand levels is Weis Wave. Some examples of how to look for such zones. You just need to choose large waves with a large volume.

I've been using SD analysis for my longer term swing trades with some good success in getting much better prices. The real value is in understanding what's going on with all the price structures, pin bars, engulfing bars, etc.

It's the high level concepts of what is high, what is low, what is fair, where other participants added, and where they have not come back that were eye opening for me.

The methods instill a logical discipline because you would logically never buy high or sell low in a larger timeframe. But at the same time, my rules permit me to see if a smaller timeframe participant will return to the market at the last point he/she added.

The power and difficulty is in thinking in 2 different timeframes simultaneously, then drilling down to see what orders have been removed, and what orders may still remain on the book. I find that on smaller timeframe fractal pairs like 1h and 5m my working memory is completely overloaded.

There are times when reading the order removal within price structure goes completely against Auction Market Theory, which is frustrating because both analysis methods should really be describing the same supply/demand/value relationship phenomenon.

Hello
i am training and testing m.r Sam Seiden strategy for like a month

my charts are on Tradinview: Https://www.tradingview.com/u/Aidin_Jabarpoor/

i would be so happy and greatfull if anyone expert and professional with the strategy
or learner comes and talk to me so we can share ideas and help each other grow faster

Supply and Demand zones are an excellent way of entering trades that offer higher reward:risk returns than other methods. It also has the advantage that limit orders can be set in advance, meaning much less waiting around watching price action on charts. Depending on where you live and how much time you have to trade, that can be a godsend.

However, what I have also learnt over the many years I have been learning about supply and demand is that, while they are great for low-risk entries, they are less good for determining the overall market direction or being able to judge if/when the market will reverse.

For supply and demand zones to be used effectively, it is first essential to have a good understanding of the current market conditions for the time frame you are looking at and a time frame above this. This comes from understanding chart structure and price action. Once you have mastered this, you will know the direction in which you need to trade and you will know the approximate location from which you need to enter. This may be the pullback in a trend, the top/bottom of an ascending channel or at the top/bottom of a range. Supply and demand zones can then be used to pinpoint a low-risk trade with specific entry and stop-loss values.

With all this information, it's possible to join an existing trend on a pullback, or look at where price might pull back to in a range, both with surprisingly high accuracy. Supply and demand zones do not always work, but most of the time, this is because you have misinterpreted the market conditions rather than that the zones themselves are bad.

I have spent many, many years writing EA's to identify possible supply and demand zones. Then I found an indicator that did essentially everything I had programmed my EA to do, just much better. And then I realised that once you understand price action and the market conditions you are in, you don't really need any indicator or EA. It's actually relatively easy to spot the zones that are most likely to work. I now trade with very little on my charts, preferring just a two or three horizontal trend lines and a couple of zones of interest that I have identified by eye and highlighted on my charts for reference.

Hi everyone, Wordguide here I would like to enquire on how to choose or figure out the right Supply or demand level. I'm afraid I don't have eagles' eyes to spot these important levels. Courtesy to Mr Sam Seiden and Evans.
