you have the same H4 candle and broker server time - FXDD.
look at all the details on the eurjpy H4 chart and read the TDI data values.

Two things you can do:

1) Wait till this H4 candle close

2) refresh your chart and that TDI will update immediately.

When you refer to "price action", are you referring to the price bars on a specified timeframe? If yes, then definitely "price action" (price bars) is just one of the many LAGGING indicators.

For example, if you look at a closed H4 bar, what do you know about the "price action"? You know only that sometime during that 4 hours that the bar formed, a high was made and a low was made. You also know what the clock time was that the broker posted for the start and end of that price bar. So this price bar is nothing more than a binning of the price ticks that the broker posted during that 4 hour period. So if price ticks are being binned to create a price bar, then the PRICE TICKS versus time are the "price action", not the price bars.

And how many traders do we find that are examining price ticks as they are posted to use for trading decisions? None that I know of. Everyone I know or that I have seen make presentations or write ups use some type of INDICATOR (price bars are included as indicator) that in some way aggregates, averages, or bins those individual ticks to provide LAGGING information about price versus time.

on your weekly chart I need 3 candles to see the Market Type conditions and it has changed.

I see the market is already sideways for 2 weeks.

I know the market type range high - low and use my trading system for range trading.

I wait for the breakout opportunity too.

The market is showing you its Weekly Open, High, Low and Close.

{quote} Are my charts similar to yours EMMANUEL7788 ? If in london session H4 and H1 give us a Sell signal. But in the pipware minichart all the higher frames are showing up move, the price lines are all above the MA. so do i need pipware chart to use in london session anymore? - When do you think the pipware chart is used? 1 long direction with 3-8 candles H1, H4 ? {image} {image} {image} {image}

hi @mistdraw28

here is my GU H1 V19 template

- note the trading hours are your MT4 local time and you need to set that to your trading hours for the pairs you trade

- I have set mine to 2 hours after Sydney Open but I do not trade all the alerts

- keep the setting for H1 to minimum and you decide based on PA+SR on your trading charts.

- no trading today! you know why.

Thank Bro ! I ordered the same template as yours. Today is the last day of the month. But I look for a trade setup at H1 during today's London session. I hope not to be beaten by the market by what you guide me . Look at the PA of H4 (below/above EMA) and find a suitable setup at H1 according to H4.If H4 is below EMA it won't go long at H1. Do I understand correctly?

The OP of this thread, the same Big E once said these: (in his old thread)

==================================================
Good Morning All...

For any of you who has signed up for the free nightly training video by Compassfx or went thru them to get your FXDD Demo account... you would have received an email a couple of days ago letting you know there was a free Craig Harris Webinar last night. It was great as a few members from this forum here would attest to.

Here are some highlights & adjustments:

1. Using S/L of normally 35 pips on his trades.
2. He always targets his Big Numbers for exit targets (00,20,50,80,00)... shooting for 20+ pips per swing.
3. When there is a long run (60-100 pips) the next swing is often small.
4. Once any pair runs it's normal daily range the swings normally become smaller.
5. After the London close the G/U tends to range.
6. Craig trades the 1st three hours of the London session and the next 3 hours after the London close.
7. Most pairs have two long runs per day.
8. Really stressed how important it is to wait for the Tokyo Channel to be 40+ pips before trading any pairs.
9. Retracements start at the London close on G/U.
10. At the London close if Price Action is in the upper or lower quarter of the Tokyo Channel... look for retracements.

Pretty cut and dried... enjoy. Big E

====================================================

What is Price Action?

It is a subject where different traders, teachers, gurus, etc. will have different views and opinions. I learn from a few good teachers - Steve Nison, Thomas Bulkowski, Lance Beggs and a few others well-known in this industry.
I can first summarize Price Action to a few price bar pattern with APB/HA candles to identify True REVERSAL price action and CONSOLIDATION price action, and use technical studies like Stochastics, RSI and MACD as additional trading tools/aids to help me in making trade decisions.
It is really not that complicated nor complex which many think it is.

Remember - Keep It Simple. Keep Price Action simple too. It can be learned and mastered with screen time spent.

Trade Well. Stay Safe.

OK, so all of those "price action" traders are actually "price-lagging indicator action" traders. Got it!
