Thnx for the indicator. It sure helps w/ the learning process for newbies, like me.

How would I remove any of the price patterns that I don't want to appear on the charts?

Thnx, Sid
When you add the indicator to the charts, you will see options for this if you look, along with choice of color, etc.

I have been using the star indicator for a while... it is OK, but not perfect... and as far as the market structure MSL, MSH... it only alerts AFTER the candle has finished, and often times price is already reversing by then... so i don't se much use for that part of the indicator....

Overall though it does help to point out price action patters intead of having to search for them so much...
Tiki, hopefully you wouldn't expect perfection, and certainly not from a mechanical version of a non-mechanical system! :-)

Also, I think the whole point of a MSH/MSL, and any patterns like we look for for that matter, are that we DO wait for the bar close. If you don't wait for the bar close, then in essence you're doing nothing more than looking at a lower TF. Looking at a 4HR bar every hour is pointless. Better to look at 1HR bars on the hour instead.

Weekly BEOB may have finished retracing. Last week made an IB. They will pretty much end up breaking in tandem if they do.

Keep in mind this is against the main trend.

Daily. Most perfect retrace to prior engulfed bar's low one could wish for.

Perfect. I wish every trade, market and chart would behave like this.

Looking for 2.0180, 1.9990 and trendline willing, lower.

Hi

This indicator shows price actions patterns, at least the ones I've plotted after go through hundreds of pages in this much more than excellent thread.

Just put the indicator in a chart and the stars will appear.

How to trade with the stars? That's a question to our guru...

Hi Seeking Light,
Just a quick question how did you enter on "short from 2.0432" is this from the pin bar from the 4hour chart or was it from the daily BEOB from the 6th ?
If so how did you get in so early ??
Nice trade.
Stay Lucky Mimas.

Descent started with a 2x 1h / 4h PB here on my chart at a descending TL capping off the tops on 1h..didn't quite get to .618 of the downswing sadly :/

Took that. Was expecting a B end for a C down and the PBs confirmed roughly in that area. Actually left a bit overshoot room for 10 pips above the .618 since cable likes to give a last good thrashing before giving up sometimes by 5-15 pips.

Worked out bona fide.

Are you still bearish Seeking?

I'm building a long position in the Dax...should have checked your journal first...lol
Not sure after the surge yesterday, but I still believe in a nervous environment and big potential for things staying slippery =)

And now, for something completely different....


(I have too much time on my hands waiting for GBPUSD to get to 1.9990 hehe)

It seems a PB is forming on GBP/USD (it just hit the lowest of last week), isn't it?

well I think you are trying to focus on the right eye here, which you don't even need to worry about. Just focus on the actual pinbar and the left eye(where the open and close of the pinbar is located). This bar is a neutral bar since the open and close are in the middle of the bar

Best,
Mike

zoheir do be careful when trading these lower time frames. Many times they will produce what looks to be a great setup and then move suddenly in the opposite direction.

On the other hand if the higher time frames are have setup to go in the same direction then your probablity of having a winning trade increases.

Just my 1.5 cents. I am still working on the other .5
