so yea that green candle looks decent, so if the next candle made a bottom wick first , even small , id place a buy stop

now we see it flipped bearish and continued down but the green candle wick still got filled, im finding this strategy very forgiving , and i wouldnt even try get the full wick, but most of it for sure.

we see how many wicks get filled, in general anyway , yes we get losses but at around 1-1 rr we only need just over 50% strike rate

dunno what say really , currently experimenting with wick fills, maybe i want some input. if the candle is green the upper wick gets filled, if the candle is red the lower wick gets filled eg, green candle, next candle fills the top wick but first it must make a bottom wick, exceptions: dojis , indecision candles , close to strong support resistance, not black and white rules, experience taken into consideration image 2 is last 3 days results , 15m 30m and 1h timeframes {image} {image}

Wicks are an important part of candlestick patterns, but I don’t think they are the main element to follow. When the H1 trend is bullish, the probability of the next candle also being bullish is much higher. On the other hand, when there is no active trend in the market, candlesticks and wicks become meaningless.
In trading, I believe that merging multiple time frame trends is the key factor.

i see what you are saying, im not saying wicks are the main element to follow. but does it work? , i sorta wanted to just scrap everything we think we know , only thing that matter is profit, and in no trend candles are meaningless yes, but do we need to care about meaning , the attachment shows a 30 m range on dec 11, and even with a range at 1-1 its still in profit, of course we dont know if they made opposite wicks first , so i dont know if we would have taken the trade but on face value, its 11 wins and 8 losses : 3r in profit , and when you do trend, win rate will be a lot higher.

and also we dont need to take trades in a range like this, especially when its trapped between the 20 and 200 ma

its simple af , and if it works, like it has the last 4 days ill be sipping strawberry daiquiris on a beach in Thailand this time next year

i dont wanna sound like i know, its only been 4 days, maybe in another 4 days , ill be like fk this sht
