Roadmap - A Way To Read Markets

Quoting turnip15
UK afternoon - 1:30pm to 4pm UK time And again - Good trades on oil {image}
Good markup run and at the high two failed reversals the failed PA actually becomes a re-hike. Thereafter the second failed reversal but it also could be MMs anticipated the clearout and put price in a new up and down range to coax in more longs to fill there own short orders, later a markdown and the market gets into re-distribution phase. Nice trade.
Core of MMs is passing longs for shorts

Decent short trade from third rectangle - oil UK time morning {image}
Bear MMs push up prices, shorting as prices go up (to their advantage).

{quote} With the May liquidity being cleared out so recently, this latest high will either be them working the highs (slightly raising each high compared to the previous one, in order to shake out more bears and attract fresh bulls), in which case we drop from here - OR - it's the real deal and we're going to the moon. Unfortunately we need more clues than we have at present. But, if I had to take a position, I'd be a seller up here. {image}
Attract fresh bulls and maybe passing longs for shorts to unexpected new buyers!

Markets are liquidity seeking in nature, it's a fair assumption to expect price to return to that level to grab the liquidity.

good to see u using the roadmap.

its a brilliant way to see the markets and place trades accoring to it.

i have several templates and "the roadmap" is definitely one of my favorites.
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!
One failed long and one reasonable long. One reasonable short. Closed short since it was bouncing off a pre drawn, pre open level. I finish at 4pm so not going to risk losing points. Pleased with my patience.

Nice one. I had three trades today, all positive, though not any massive pip amount.
I stopped before red news at 13.30.

I'm not trading this way. Most of the time I'll wait for the pullback and continuation candle. But this time I was watching GU as well and it was moving fast so I didn't want to be left on the side
An easier day ( UK afternoon) using pre open levels box
