Why do counter-trend when the Ichimoku combination can follow price movements? Why wait several hours for profits when the Ichimoku combination can produce results in less than an hour? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feXLbkU5IRI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_RIonEfI9g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOUFj6C3Mas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHGaJphWP5o

what would you have done if this trend would be a freight train without stopping? because it is still not exhausted from what my indicators tell me.
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!

resistance levels on almost all time frames, it was a good bet

if we knew what was going to happen we'd just win the lottery, it would be easier.
We're just beating with good odds, imo seemed like a bet with good odds and a near ceiling to cut your loses.

This is a very simple trading strategy for beginners.
It doesn’t work every single day, but you’ll usually notice the impact of these levels about 2–3 days per week. These levels are 100% mathematical and astro-based, and quite often you’ll see clear market reactions around them.
By following my daily levels, you’ll be able to catch a lot of market swings.
However, make sure you follow the instructions below carefully:
Definitions of the Levels
• MOB Level (Make or Break Level):
This is the decisive level where the market determines its next direction — whether to continue or end a move.
• LOC (Line of Control):
This is a key observation area where you’ll often see multiple candlestick patterns forming. Watch this level closely for potential setups.
• C1, C2, C3 (Ceilings):
These are resistance levels. If you notice any reversal or stop-hunt activity here, you can often expect the market to change its trend.
• F1, F2, F3 (Floors):
These are support levels. Similar to the ceilings, if you see reversals or stop-hunts forming around these areas, it may signal a trend reversal.

{quote} impressive! what was your longest period you waited to close a trade or basket?
This example image is one of the longest in my trading cycle: 57 minutes.
In inconsistent conditions, I often use a higher timeframe as a reference.
For example, the Ichimoku cloud Spion TF 15 is showing bearish.
Therefore, I don't close unless there is no profit or if the Ichimoku cloud Spion TF 15 remains bearish

This is neither a trend nor a countertrend.
It simply follows price movements based on the Ichimoku cloud Spion TF 15 on the M1 chart

very short period, as you said, trading shouldn't be a marathon. I still need to work on that; it's my next goal.

{quote} very short period, as you said, trading shouldn't be a marathon. I still need to work on that; it's my next goal.
Even a marathon isn't a problem.As long as you can limit the time of one trading cycle
I use the fly-or-die gambling concept every day.
Stake almost the same initial capital every day, and use the same initial capital tomorrow.

If I lose/die today, I'm finished, no need to add more capital.
Start again tomorrow with the same initial capital as today.

If I win/fly today, I can pawn the profits I have earned to double my profits and then I'm finished
Start again tomorrow with the same initial capital as today.

My guideline is "price and uncertainty in forex trading are absolute."

Some of you might be curious about my last order cycle.
Yes, it was just speculation based on prices within the IB High and IB Low ranges.

Pure speculation due to the flat Ichimoku Cloud within the IB High and IB Low ranges of the London/New York Session
