{quote} i have question, will you take like example 1h unicorn , but it didnt have any fvg, so we switch to smaller time frame for fvg?
i wouldn't want to speak of the many scenarios that could play out.
there's a h4 unicorn.
it could even be a m1 unicorn within the h1 unicorn later on when new data is added.
main thing is to wait for market open and take the middle portion of the meat.
when you have london consolidation, it is meant for new york to play out.
the new york kill zone just started. see what they kill. maybe that unicorn.

A valid unicorn must have two things in the same TF.

  1. An FVG
  2. A Breaker Block (EF)

question the logic.
why price dropped back down to where it started before the news.
are the news effective?
why price dropped from the top?
what's up there to make it drop?

i was bearish based on higher time frame.
the day resistant and day high are the basis that prevented any advance.

thoughts............... on health and aging.
as we are getting older and weaker each passing day, we have the responsibility of taking care of ourselves for our own good and that of our family members.
we may feel young in our mind but our physical body gives way.
our lives go downhill once we are on the wheelchair.
think about the quality of our:
- sleep
- food
- exercise/activities
invest every day in them, our mobility, retaining our muscle mass, our mental health.
on the mental side, we are already exercising our brain doing trading puzzles almost every day.
make good decisions now.

my comments step by step as you wanted to focus on engulf / engulf fail with the w1/d1/h4 combo.
i had previously recommended that you use the fibonacci to determine the premium and discount market.

make use of this weekend to study your favorite pair GBPUSD for the last 2 weeks from 22 jul onward.
you may want to use the w1/d1/h4 combo or the d1/h4/h1 combo or the h4/h1/m15 combo.
to start off here is the w1 chart.
would it be more profitable than what you already did for the past 2 weeks?

{quote} Thank you. Sorry to disturb you in your day off.
it's ok. i want you to improve. (i am still thinking of the Rolex. LOL)
if you are doing swing trading, use the w1/d1/h4 combo.
if you are doing intraday trading, use the d1/h4/h1 or the h4/h1/m15 combo.
you have to find out what is your personality type for the particular combo that you have chosen.
from what i see, you are doing intraday trading, then you have to do lots of back testing and forward testing.
to see whether d1/h4/h1 or the h4/h1/m15 combo suits you more.
