1 win for buy and 1 BE for sell. I didn't expect that the price will break to the upside STILL. Good thing I set my SL to BE on my sell trade.

a review on friday.
it was a big bullish candle but yet many traders having problems to make long entries during intra day.
using mtf analysis for engulf, support and resistant.
if we cannot make a narrative out of every time frames, it only means that our thinking is not clear enough
or there is no conviction to take a trade.

My narrative is:
ATH (the target) was achieved, and the HTF structure is still bullish. Now the market can do two things before delivering a higher price

  1. offer a fair value
  2. Look for liquidity

In either case, I guess, ~2475 is calling

ok. so now you do not find any narrative in each mtf time frames to trade during asia open, which is also good.

Unicorn within a Unicorn. Let's see if this characteristic makes it stronger.

Doesn't the term "Narrative" refer to "how and from where the price could be delivered to the target within the context"? Please correct me, if I misunderstood it.

I expect the price to return to ~2475 (target) as a retracement before pushing the price higher (context), and the above unicorn was the narrative.

to me the mtf narratives are giving the 'whole' picture of what is happening in a top down down flow.
not only from the smaller time frames, not knowing what htf is doing.
for example, each time frame i have something to say.
d1 there is no reference point for me to say anything.
h4 a bearish engulf candle alerts me to wait further down the lower time frames.
h1 was at the premium market with a resistant during the asia range.
m15 unicorn.

in other words what other higher time frames are saying other than m15 and m1 unicorn is saying to watch out for a trade trigger.
are htf giving the support to this unicorn to work out. because many unicorns can also be formed along the way. bearish and bullish. not all will work out.
