classic spring below london open range showing potential sos but the indecision on the 30 min trend is not providing a solid safe set up yet

NFP in 1 hour will determine actual direction . 90 percent up as the samrt money would not have moved it down in london for selling

Which timeframe I should use while trading? Charts are fractal in nature. Fractal means what you see on 5 minute timeframe can be seen on daily timeframe. Until and unless you are told timeframe, you cannot guess the timeframe because you see same dynamics on all timeframes. Technical analysis works on all timeframes. 1) Scalpers and Jobbers usually enter and exit within 2 minutes. They trade in the direction of 1 min timeframe and use tick or second charts or visually create price charts in their mind looking at price movement. 2) Day traders use...

good post

just a couple of thoughts ... always monitor the trends start each session ... us / london / aisa .... the trends can chnage each session. even on the 1 hour

{quote} Nice one. Do you find that you get many setups by using only GU and gold on H1?
one thing no one talks about here is trends and days ranges ......

currency is very regulated not like crypto. ..movements no more than 1 to 1.25% per day

from this we can obtain average days ranges of last 21 / 10 / 5 days etc .

currently the atr 21 days gbp is 94 and yesterday was only 68 .. meaning compression so breakout and good trend day imminent.

So the idea is to try and find the trend for the day. this is where tradeguider works well for me as i monitor the scanner for trend alignment multi time frames. however for those with out it the trend in tg is a standard bollinger . Follow this and add atr stops ..

simple rules .... look to buy sos when atr stops below price and price above bollinger band 30 min ... trade into days range limit to upside
look to sell sow when atr stops above price and price below bollinger band

in attached we see the price above the bollinger and atr stops under the price.... so I can only look to buy sos . However the volume is clearly DECLINING on the way up meaning i will also look for trend reversals after news later below today's lows.

currently gbpusd has 44 pip to upside and 88 to downside to days range limits

Couple of trades today..

These are based on VZA, where you find the mid-point of the previous day's highest volume bar and add the ADR to find where price is over extended.

The AJ setup was a little shy of the hinge + ADR but there was clear selling coming in. Closed the trade early because price got grindy at 81.60

2nd trade on UJ, very obvious selling coming in. Closed this trade just because NFP was coming up.

sometimes a trade is not evident .. like es today there is no good set up.

but we get paid to be patient . When there are good valid set ups they jump out of the charts and slap you around the face
