Yes I always fall for this trap. "They" make it look like a engulfing failure so I start buying----Next comes huge drop with no retrace----- Now I have to start selling but POI is far away----By that time engulfing failure has happened so I start buying----Repeat this cycle of doom forever.
Just by itself, winrate is 50%, but with multitimeframe winrate is 90%

This is how I look at the line chart. The line chart you have posted is in a downtrend.
I would not trade the green arrows back into the trend.

see? the wrb fvg preventing price to go up twice.
now that price is below new york midnight.

in your mind form a story line. doesn't matter now that it didn't work out.
it is all in time to come if you persist.

keep this in mind.

It could not be explained better.

I am trying to optimize the entry to minimize the DD. I want to get your view on this.

 

  1. Limit order @ FVG
  2. @EG, after bouncing off the FVG
  3. @retest of that EG, after bouncing off the FVG
  4. Combination of all above (Hybrid)

hard to imagine.
with your normal entry time frame, put the steps 1 2 3 on a chart.
whatever it is, the biggest problem for us is to locate the institutional support and resistant.
if we got that, hey whatever entries also can, even the lousy ones.
