Locked in a little bit. Usually the Asian session is not that volatile.

Long: My profit target is not based on a fib level. It is based on another math formula. Let's see how it goes. In either case. Profit is profit. {image}
Hi Pair!

Did you go long there because of Daily Support at about 25200 or what reasons did you have to take the trade?

This is what I was looking at. Price corrected to the 50% zone. It then made a weak attempt to go back toward 0% before retesting the 50% zone again.

Next it completed a 1 to 1 and seemed to have a workable rotation candle.

I hope that answered your question.

Here is a short I took a few hours ago while I was teaching. Sometimes, I will let my students see what I am doing. They really want to learn how to read a chart. ha ha ha

I told them that I am still learning too.

Thanks for clearing up! Makes sense 100%, did not watch the immediate orderflow. I thought you were watching higher timeframes.

You are not wrong. I have learned from Mr. Pip's videos to be inline with the larger order flow. If an individual trades counter trend with the smaller order flow they must manage their trade aggressively. His videos will teach you how to avoid pissing in the wind at least 30% of the time. And I for one don't like pissing in the wind, though gust winds seem to appear now and then. ha ha ha

I like the used expression " how to avoid pissing in the wind ".

Yesterday and today has been a very volatile and fast moving market. Anyways... I am trying to have some fun with this market. Little by little I am getting some more confidence, but sometimes my entries are just rubbish in my humble opinion. I could be wrong, but think this market will drop much more.

Ha ha ha .... Why do you ask that question? Just watch Mr. Pip's videos. He has used a lot of his valuable time to help those on this thread improve.

There are a few areas that I struggle with a lot. I still have a lot to learn. However, I enjoy learning together as a team here on this thread.

-40 : Entry: Structure, Golden zone, 1:1 (yellow lines). I thougth a down move (red line) is posible. It seems I decided to ignore momentum increased, projection increased, depth decreased on short term and news in a few minutes. Plus, SL should have had 10 points less. Ok, really bad, "I was pissing in the wind" . Next.

+39 : Entry: Structure, 161 fib, 3 harmonic move (yellow line). Down move (red line) still posible. News could not break structure and made a tiny NSH. Exit: I trailed decision candle after structure was hit. TP was at 38% fib and red line.

I like a lots how Evo usually trade the 1:1 and I was wondered what he sees to choose the "right" swing.
I realized last days I usually take what MrPip teach us to analyze "weakness", but not to analyze "strength" and choose the 1:1.
( Althoug I still have no idea what Evo sees in some trades.... )
