Sticking to M15.. selling is better as long as candles open below ~1.1560 .

Feeling extremely tired today, guys?
The amount of fluctuations is frightening.

I am not tired even after constantly posting and posting.. why are you tired bro?

But let me guess... most traders are trying to brain force the chart. Like telekinesis.. Traders are often (and unknowingly) trying to move the candle or price into the direction they need it to be via brain power. We all probably tried to move objects by thinking and straining our eyes to move an object when we were kids lol. So I think that's where most of the tiredness comes from.

Instead, build a system. Follow the rules and let the system decide. Don't try to micro manage orders while watching. Or even better: don't watch and just let things unfold and check from time to time.

Best wishes

1. My brother Atta, thank you so much for your concern.
2. Your words are absolutely correct and logical. I understand what you mean, and I am fully committed to my plan. I always try to be mentally alert when analyzing the chart. However, I wasn't today.
3. When I opened the chart today, my expectation was clearly for an upward move, but the market started moving very strongly and fluctuating wildly, even though the chart clearly showed an upward trend. Because of these movements, I started monitoring each candle individually. As a result, I won one trade and lost two.
4. I try to be very knowledgeable about what I'm doing, but what hinders me is the large price movements.

{quote} Hi, genuinely curious where this information originated/proof to substantiate this claim?
It's all in the data. I've been trading FX since mid 90's. It's a 30 second realization when you see the data. The auction process markets maintain is no different from an antiques market, a coin market or the currency market. Financial markets are simply more transparent in terms of depth and ability to respond to both buyers an sellers intent. The process is still the same though. Something has value, the bids move higher if the value is higher than the current bid.. the asking prices get chewed up and markets move. As soon as that exhausts itself and sellers (supply) hit the market the value is chased lower. This is elementary. What's more complicated is the process of deducing what an institution determines to be of value. Any time a bank can trade for 'free yield' they do. If you know where value is - you know their next move. Retail trades price action related concepts, banks trade on value. It's their activity that pushes rates to match value. 98% of what retail sees as important for trading - is relatively worthless statistically. In most cases it fails to align with what institutions are doing or why.

For me, guys, everything that happened today was just a friendly match between the bulls and the bears. But overall, the trend on the H1 chart is short-term and upward. As long as prices open above the 1.15350 level, I have little appetite for selling.

Quick Recap

Today I was mostly a seller on M15... I relied on my basic H4 chart.. I kept it simple.. Left all the fancy financial BS talk behind..

~1.1560 was key resistance and we kept selling there. Most days it works perfectly and rarely, like today, we might face choppiness and indecision. All well! Nothing to complain.

Just.... Keep it simple!

See you tomorrow folks
