Hello Royal146
Thank you for the questions. I know you are not the only one with them so well done for asking and not being shy.
We will tackle more like this in the next T.I.O.F free webinar coming up later this month hopefuly.

To answer your questions:
Picture 1 - the momentum is up. It only becomes downward if the pivot low at the arrow is breached. With regards to trend, it is impossible to say because you used a line drawing. To be specific, momentum lines are not used to identify trend, the fidelity of zones are the preferred method sometimes with the classical dow theory of HHs and HLs being an uptrend and LHs and LLs being a downtrend. Since you used a line chart/drawing it is not possible to identify zones to see which ones are holding and which ones are being breached. It is plausible that the trend is most likely still up though, despite a lower high being put in.

Picture 2 - both are demand. The difference is in the quality of demand. This is a very critical point because on any given chart there will be demand and supply zones everywhere. Naturally, one can not and should not be expected to take all of them because they are not all of the same quality. With my mentoring students we talk, practice extensively and work on weeding out the lower quality zones. Without seeing the who chart, of the two zones you shared, the lower one would score more points for closing above the candle before it compared to the first picture which had a wick above. Plpease note that this is just one of the possible quality assessment observations that we can use.

Picture 3 - it is a supply zone created by the break of momentum. Its value is increased given the location it occurred at, i.e a higher timeframe level

Hope that helps

I was looking at Pfizer, wondering if the selling would ever end and thought I'd share what I came up with on the Monthly, Weekly, Daily combo. {image}{image}{image}
Hello cpuz
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on Pfizer

Please see below, some observations i made on the monthly and daily charts.
As for the weekly, given where price is currently, waiting for new zones to form on the weekly would be the conservative approach to any buying that one considers.

Anyone here who would like to share their trading account results with this "methodology"??? I mean.. This thread has been here for very long. I follow it since the beggining almost. I am very skeptical when the person who starts the thread doesn't have a TRADE EXPLORER to show if his profitable or not.

Please, understand my skepticism. But since this is a thread of someone who is supposed to be a profitable trader, I would like to see some results at least.

I mean, this thread has been here for years. There must be for a good reason and there HAS to be some profitable traders, right??? Or at least AKT. I would like to see some statements of profits before purchasing a document with more of this methodology. Please understand.

Cheers

Hi, i understand your skepticism because FF is full of fakes, i do not know if AKT is profitable, but, the openness of AKT and time that he gives to answer the questions of any person is something that is not common in FF and does not deserves this kind of doubt
I am writing because if we do not value the few contributors, that besides his commercial interests, gives time to truly answer questions of any users being his subscriber or not, then there will be less and less till extinction
I am trying to mitigate your assumptions with good assumptions about this thread, i can enumerate several fake traders that you can see they are not the real thing because his selfish attitude and answers , i had never doubts about akt.
And think, what you can lose from someone that is sharing his knowledge, you can try to learn and prove him wrong or right whit your own practice and experience.
Just a thought.

I am sorry if I ofended anyone, but you have to understand that FF forum is filled with people who claims to be profitable, but get triggered if asked to show any results.

Yep he shares this information freely, but if I remember well, I messaged him some years ago and he offered me some documents with a more detailed explanation of this methodology for some $$... Which is alright, of course everybody should charge for their knowledge.

I am just curious if there is anybody here making any money after all this years in this thread, thats all. I mean, if you really are profitable it shouldn't be too hard to have a TRADE EXPLORER linked to your account, right?

That's all I am saying.

Oh please I am sorry if I sounded too aggressive. English is not my mother language. Even tho I have good vocabulary, sometimes I don't know how to formulate a sentence properly. I first think in Spanish then I write in English.

Of course he has a good attitude and dedicates a lot of time here, even tho he is a commercial member but still shares his knowledge in this thread.
Trust me, I know there are plenty of fake traders here and you can tell instantly. I am not saying AKT is one. Since you are all trading together and trying to improve with this methodology.

Let me see if I can say it in a better way this time. What I wanted to say is: Since this thread has been for so long, it must be for a reason right? So I wanted to know if there is someone who has been here long enough to show some results to convalidate if this concept of supply and demand works. Because I have seen many different approaches of Supply and Demand but no one can confirm if it really works. No one to convalidate it.

I am just saying. Hope no one gets offended and understand why I say this. If you like this thread and feel there is no need for profitable statement then is fine.

I do have my own concept of trading. Not exactly S/D methodology. In my eyes, the market ranges most of the times and then price spikes strongly for Bull or Bear, then it consolidates and ranges again. I like to trade consolidations.

Dear Guiyee.

It might interest you to know that I was among the first 10 people that AKT took through the ABC of S/D without collecting a dime upon his busy schedule. And he is still mentoring me till tomorrow.. Do you know that it is only an empty drum that make the loudest sound? AKT is a very cool and calm guy who doesn't believe in intimidating others because he believe that life is not about making mouth or shouting all over the FF but affecting and impacting the life of others in your own little way. AKT did not tell me that this is the only method that works in FX because he doesn't know how to rubbish or bring others down.
No one need to proof to you whether this methodology works or not. I will advice you. If you need a platform to showcase your system, Strategy or methodology, please check the next door.
But since you desire to know whether this methodology work or not? I will appreciate if you can check AKT's youtube channels for further clarification.
Thank you.

Dear Guiyee,

Even though I dont come to FF too often but your insult to AKT has forced me to reply as it was offensive for me to even read it. No one here has forced you to come here and trade the way AKT does or how I or 50+ of his personally trained guys and girls does and most of them I know AKT has personally helped without taking a single DIME and does it still every single day even on his holidays and I happen to be one of those lucky one's.

In my 4 years of being with AKT not once has he mentioned this is figure amount he has made or we gave him a figure what we made and not for one second have we ever doubted the guy about his skillset and knowledge of trading and if you were part of his group of guys, you would know how he goes through market setups every week and how his guys absolutely smash them everyday.

Your question tells a lot about your character and even though AKT will look at this reply and won't be proud of me but I felt it was my responsibility to reply to a guy who insulted the MAn because of who I have learnt anything and everything about trading.

OH... MY... GOD... Why is everyone so susceptible here?? What about freedom of speech?? Am I in the authoritarian thread? the comunist thread with a beloved leader?? Jesus calm down people.. I didnt insult or said anything crazy. Where did I insult the guy??? Please show me. Just cuz of my attitude? Chill, this is a public thread I can say whatever I want.

I know that no one forced me to be in the thread BUT.. What is so offensive about asking for proof of his success to someone who has tried to SELL me something before??? A document or a service, you name it.
Or Maybe you are just afraid that you spent so much time on something that just doesn't work on the long run and thats why you defend it... Think about it.

Be honest with yourself buddy. You said you have been here for long right?? Have you had consistant profit trading S/D for over a year at least?
If I am wrong, please prove it MJAVED, it is very easy. Link your account to TRADE EXPLORERS here in FF. It is a great tool

But of course, you won't do it.. Why?? Well you will say that you don't have to prove me anything, but the truth is that YOU JUST CAN'T. We both know it
(And please understand that a picture of a few random trades won't do it... I can do that aswell you know)

The problem about the mindset of "Working all together in a methodology like a happy group of unsuccesful traders" is believing that if you fail with the methodology tought by the "Master" you have followed BLINDLY, it must be that you are not skilled enough... whether than realizing that the guy has never proved you anything at all.

Yeah, AKT might be a nice guy, he might say a lot of interesting things... Now you want to sell me something? Please proove your success, and I'll buy it. You want the position in the company?? Please prove your value... You want to be the President of the country??? Please prove you are capable to do it... Isn't it how the world works???

What if I sell you some ITEM that works a few times but then it breaks and stops working??, but for some reason I can't tell its broken and I believe it's my fault and think I dont know how to use it?? Or even worse, someone is constantly telling me that I made a small mistake every single time... WELL, IF I ONLY CHECKED IF THE ITEM WORKED BEFORE BUYING IT... RIGHT??

If you want to learn how to trade succesfully. Would you prefer a GEORGE SOROS TRADING BOOK or just a random guy called MICHAEL SMITH TRADING BOOK????? Who has no proof of success of course.. Now if Michael Smith shows his success, thats a different story, because George Soros book will be $200, while the other will be cheaper.

Don't worry buddy, I am not here to sell anything like you said. Because if I wanted to sell something REAL, I would definitely have a TRADE EXPLORERS, so that people can know I am selling something that works and not a "broken item"...


PS: Do you know what a Trade Explorers is?? Because if you don't I recommend you to check it out buddy ... I am impressed how come AKT still doesn't have one..

Awesome buddy! Thanks

So hey Lade, I am checking AKT youtube Channel. Where is the proof of success?.. Indeed he doesn't use MT4 platform to show his charts.. thats all I see in his Youtube channel. Thats weird.

Please people, understand that I am not against you, in fact I am trying to help you. Whats the point on following a guy who has no proof of being a profitable trader? You might be even better trading on your own..

Isn't HOPE a wonderful thing? Is because of HOPE that people started to think that there is a HEAVEN waiting for us after we die. Because people needed to believe so... Is because of HOPe that we believe in someone who has no proof of success... at all... Just because we need to believe...

Just a thought.
