A quick morning reflection.

Any market reaction "AFTER" a point is of more interest to me than a reaction right at the point, if you know what I mean.


Good hunting again on a fearless friday

(edit: by fearless I mean No red news )

24 hours later, why not.


Folks I'm not posting these charts so anyone can look at them and say 'oh that's how I can trade well next day'.
Not the purpose.

I essentially do all these for myself (offline) so I can look back at them later and THINK about the markets & their behaviours.


Are markets we trade auctions and, or is there some coordinations behind the moves (NOT manipulation, just coordinations, there's a difference)

And if there are coordinations, then at what point on a chart could we be taking profit, or
at what point on a chart might we be caught in a losing trade. That's all their purpose is, to me.

No use imho looking at the charts and thinking 'NOW I can win'.
But maybe we could think where AND when we might do our best trades, OR our worst.

Anyway I do them for me really, this chart I called "Hurts My Head",
But maybe someone will see something in the midst of them, that might ring a bell or set up a thought, now or later.

All the best for a top weekend
Pete

Hi Pete

How i would note it here on an H4 chart below, notice how candle 3 raids 2 before moving higher to raid 1 high and reverse from a prev FVG low, and again candle 5 raids all of the rest tap into the FVG mid level wiping out all day longs to go higher further. easier to see once it is done

In Summary, Price does these three things:
1. takes out prev. high/lows
- candle 3 raids 2 and 1
2. fills a fvg
- candle 5 fills half of the fvg on sell side while raids rest of the candle lows, and move higher
3. expands in the direction it should go.

have a great week end
best regards
bilal

Terrific work on the charts shabs & bilal

In essence, a very tradeable week on the GJ, within its own boundary controls, on many timeframes, 15m, 4hr, 1m - and 1hr.

You think it's subjective. I will send you to see PeterCaleb . Objective thinking
Even quantified method should be understood why it works like this; from real world

Trading is personal and it is a business. If it was quantifiable then a "profitable" system could be given to every one and no one would have to make the effort to study and practice and to learn to cope with personal psychology ( you versus you). Sorry but there is no quantifiable system for everyone because the result for a system will vary from individual to individual. Richard Dennis "Turtle Trader" showed that giving a system to several traders resulted in several different results, including failures.
They say Turtle trading doesn't work now but that is the point -it is up to you to manage your approach by watching the market and what others do. But don't expect a quantified system to appear on a plate for you. to take away with no effort required on your behalf - sadly, that is why many threads on FF and a great many wannabe traders drift from thread to thread looking for the holy grail. If such a grail existed with ABC instruction and everyone had the same psychological make up, then the market would collapse.
I could ramble on but such ramblings will continue , as they have done for many, to be ignored by those who instantly go deaf when people suggest that trading is a personal journey involving knowing oneself, studying and adapting content from others and practice, practice , practice. Don't ask for proof since no one here is selling anything. And proof what someone else does will not make you a trader. Get your hands dirty cos only you make you a trader.
Wannabe traders often forget this and wander from thread to thread, like The Flying Dutchman ghost ship; doomed to wander the seas of ForexFactory for eternity, on a fruitless task for a no effort required, high win rate, trading strategy.
Not you versus the market but you versus you is the biggest stumbling block for any trader whatever their experience.

{quote} Can that layout/overlap be done on Tradeview charts?
I have no experience with Tradeview Charts. Do they have a members / coders forum where you could ask for a higher timeframe overlay indicator ?

I have for MT4 which you could plot any timeframe of your choosing, even ones that are not available in MT4.

Another view. Not wrong and not right for me
No practice will help, if you practise wrong thing
Maybe Turtle Traders didn't know why it worked at that time; that's the point
