Looks good? {image}
Yes, this is OK. Ideally you want to find imbalances that when price comes back into the zone it is rejected immediately. If price is consolidating inside the zone then you want to be very cautious.

{quote} Is this better zone for UJ? {image}
Hi Milan, no please read the first post. You want to identify the zones where price moves away quickly, and draw your lines according to previous bullish/bearish candle prior to take off.

How do you know where to TP? Do you reduce your risk by moving your SL when price is going your way or you let the trade more room to play out? Would be nice if you would elaborate on those issues Thanks
TP instructions in the first post. SL also.

You can move SL to breakeven as soon as price takes off, so that you have a risk free entry. You will minimize your losses this way and greatly increase your reward. Money management is key.

A entry recently on NAS100. Be careful on m1 as the spread is usually the same size as the zone, and you need to account for bid/ask when placing your entries and stops! So it will impact your r:r most definitely, but you'll get many more entries.

Here is a trade in the making: On H1: {image} You can enter now since price has entered into our zone. I usually place limit orders. However, if you wanted to be more precise, drop down to the m5/m15 and look for bearish Supply zones breaking structure. These will yield the highest r:r for those traders who are more advanced. I recommend starting out with just h1 entries for now.
I want to add here something, this is quite a good zone but looking at your chart I was a bit sure that it will be taken out.

As per S&D rule - Zone should be fresh.

Price has already touched it once and has given reaction, so zone is not valid but still if one wants to take it then the right way is

drop down to the m5/m15 and look for bearish Supply zones breaking structure.


I do not want to complicate it but one more thing if price is approaching zone making higher highs and higher lows or vice versa on the same TF, chances are high that it will break zone

I think too many consolidation candles.

From 1st post :

Tips:

Find setups where price had the smallest amount of consolidation prior to taking off. We don't want too many candles in a consolidation prior to taking off.

That is correct, the reaction was already there I did not see that. In an ideal zone, the reaction should be violent meaning it should wick off the zone rapidly. If it does not do this, chances are the zone is weak.

My experience is that when there is a lot of consolidation, these are traps for S&D traders. It's much easier to spot, and the market makers know people are paying attention to these zones. The real bases are no more than 2-4 candles, and are abruptly created and hard to identify. Those are real zones with intention of moving the market in a certain direction.

I would say this method work once mastered perfectly. For me this is something I talked about with my coleagues.

I have seen impressive results of traders with this approach. Will keep an eye on the thread just as curiosity how others will perform.

I will slow down and will let others to post too .

Good luck to everyone and keep in mind : risk management is job no.1 !

I'm going to introduce another concept of psychological price levels once people are familiar with how to draw the zones, what to look for. This will really open your eyes to how the market functions. Stay tuned!
