First of all i would like to thank you for your amazing work, Second of all I LOVE FRACTALS, so when i saw this strat i fall in love immediately since my main strat works around fractals. I found this setup today on GOLD but i was too late to enter could check if it's a correct one {image}
You're welcome friend and thanks for posting.

This is how I see it. It would have been a perfect entry!

What do you think of this upcoming setup on GOLD ? {image}
A valid setup for sure.

As I always say each trade is unique and each trader is unique in how they see a particular setup. I'm always looking for other subtle forms of confluence. Maybe an untested fractal line on a different time frame coincides with the newest setup on this time frame. Maybe the entry falls on an important Fibonacci level. Correlations with other instruments. Supply and demand levels. Wickless trendlines. Pivots. Anything extra to give me an edge. Sometimes I just love the structure and go for it!

Here's a live trade I'm in. I entered a manual "FOMO" position because there were two untested fractal lines and I wanted to make sure I got at least one entry. Two lines are better than one, right? Not the best-looking structures but the fact that they are confluent overrides their ugly nature

We ended up taking about +14 pips here on our sell setup.

Now a new fractal has formed giving us a nice uniform structure for a buy setup.

Hello traders.

Way way WAY too many trades last week. I kind of went coo-coo for cocoa puffs on my first week with the 5er funded account.

I was 5 when this commercial came out and remember it like it was yesterday!

Here's an early setup for the week. Not that common but my favorite when it happens.

And some good news.

Although I traded horribly on the 100K FTMO funded account, we managed to end the first pay period at $101,290 for a whopping 1.29% gain for the month. So I'll get 70% of $1290 and my $640 challenge fee back as well. Now we can relax and try and trade like a real professional.

Manual entry NZD/JPY M30 - FRACTAL LINE {image}
A quick in and out for +7 pips, about 10% of 20ADR.

We don't want to get greedy here. A nice little score for the Asian session to get some positive momentum for the new trading day.

We could have used a smaller SL with a bigger position size as most often winning trades with this method react distinctly at the line. If price has to go 10 pips past the line before reversing on the M30 time frame with a slow pair then the line didn't really mean much to begin with.

We had 2 of our 4 pending orders fill.

We manually took +11 pips from our USD/CHF H1 (left lots on the table here as usual)

And we lost -14 pips on our EUR/NZD trade. Ironically, I was up for a bathroom break at 2AM and considered ending this order but didn't. Then of course an easy recovery trade missed as I was sleeping. Volatile cross pair with the fractal line moving towards price, a recipe for a loser.

I'm thinking that it would be better for me to only trade the "first touch" on fractal lines moving away from price. For fractal lines moving towards price, wait for the line to break then buy/sell the other side.

Pending order from last week getting closer.

Love this type of setup. Fractal line moving away from price. The longer it takes price to reach the line, the more momentum is used up and the more likely price will reach the exhaustion point at the line.

Losing trade that filled while asleep. Looks like price reacted +11 pips before blasting through the line. (SL to BE on EA was set to 12 pips). No chance for micromanagement or a recovery trade when your sleeping. I think the other EA I was using had an option to buy/sell a trendline after it was broken with a candle close. I'll have to look into that as optimal trading hours our my sleep time and this method is surely more effective if you are awake during the order fill.

I absolutely agree with you, I consider fractals as a girl who she either love or hate you from first sight after that it's just mood swing from hate to love or hate to hate you even more, so it's better take the sure thing, which the first touch

For anyone that's interested here is the other EA for buying/selling the trendline. This one allows you to buy/sell the line on a pullback. For example, price goes past the line with a candle close, then it can buy/sell the retouch of the line.
