Highest Open / Lowest Open Trade

{quote} It is a sell position so BE-15 cannot be loss
Perhaps there is more than one way to report results.

When I win, it is BE + the number of pips won.

A loss is BE - the number of pips lost.

Trade direction doesn't matter.

If you win a buy and then win a sell, it would be confusing to see BE + and the BE - both representing wins.

Was I the only one confused?

Dear Mates, I took this trade setup in USDJPY, and I was stopped out at BE-15, but I want to know if I followed HOLO rules. It is not just to win or lose a trade but to see if you actually followed the rule because forex trading is not a gamble. If I win a trade, I go back to check if I actually followed the rules; the same happens if I lose a trade. My question is in the chart; please, mates, I want you to help me with the answer because I see the setup always. I might be interpreting it wrongly that was why I asked. One who ask questions, do not...
TooSlow,
This is my question.
This this pattern occur always.

Waiting for Tooslow answer, to my understanding this is not an Holo trade because price didn't go up through the highest open and came back down from it.
PRice should open in the area within the 2 red lines in my badly modified image.
Let's wait for a confirmation from OP

{quote} "when we are near or at daily ADR." What does that mean? "PRICE has to consolidate or start ranging" Isn't price always ranging or consolidating? Socratic method is named after the classical Greek philosopher Socrates. It is a form of inquiry and discussion between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to illuminate ideas.
when we are near or at daily ADR
When price moves away from daily open up and down and distance between daily high and low is let say 80% or more of average daily range

Isn't price always ranging or consolidating?
Price goes only up or down, time is what matters regarding consolidation/ranging.

{quote} Keep going...

I think I'm beginning to understand.....

in post #18390 you gave me an idea of what to do.

I'll explain it in my own words:

- Take the low and high prices for a period of 4-12 days.
- Calculate the difference between them. This will be the ATR.
- Take the lowest and the highest ATR value from the selected range (4-12 days).
- Add the ATR to the price of the current day's opening.
- We get the price range, which will be the most probable price reversal point

Have I understood your hints correctly? Cheers!

Close...

Compare the current range to the ATR...

When would you expect price to retrace.?

It most likely is possible.

It was obvious to have the highest/lowest daily/weekly opens for the month. Thank ChatGPT. However one must know how to prompt it correctly.

Cheers!

I will try to explain my logic and answer your question:

The price is either rising or falling. There is a 50% probability of either outcome

If ATR≥50%, the probability of a successful entry against the breakout will be higher, accordingly, it would be more logical to wait for ATR≥50%

Good day TooSlow. I have one question for clarification. AUDUSD for the past Friday 17.01.25. The price reached a minimum of 0.61739 according to my broker. On the next green candle I marked the points of the supposed entry with numbers 1,2,3 or 4. At what point do you enter? I myself trade conservatively and set point 3 for myself - 0.61852. TP 2R - 0.6283 At the close of the daily ADR. Thank you!

DO NOT CONFUSE POSSIBILITY WITH PROBABILITY.

The possibilities are price goes up or down or stays the same.

There is no probability in trading. However, there are statistics. Probability deals with the future. Statistics deal with the past.

If you want to learn HOLO, follow the rules until you master them. Then, if you still feel the need, make changes.

How many 10 trade challenges have you taken?

There have been a lot of transactions, and the same currency pair has been traded a maximum of twice in a row. I rarely trade currencies. Oil, gold, indices mainly.

Duly noted, thanks Mate!

Am I correct in understanding that statically, if ATR exceeds 50%, it would be appropriate to enter against the breakout?
