Closed my short trade for 90 pips profit.
Hopefully somebody has benefited from it.
Can you please explain your thought process/triggers when entering/exiting this trade?

It was simple, any forker would have done the same. It is a classical setup.
I already had a short bias on EURO when I closed my long position on friday. Look at the multitops and the loss of efficiency in teal colored fork.
I drew in the red fork to see how price acts within the red fork.

EURO opened with a jump down and never closed above the red sliding parallel line. I was looking for a safe short entry.
I locked in the short trade at the third retest of sliding parallel in price congestion. Circled area.

I exited few pips above the red fork ML.
Sometimes markets just gives you money like that. Nice and easy.

Nice. Thanks for the explanation.

I trade price action bars but have recently started using forks to pinpoint entries.

Please see attached chart for an entry I took today.

GBPUSD had made an engulfing bar on the 30 minute chart so I had an upside bias. Price retraced to the 62 fib and LML. I took an entry with 10 pip stop and exited at the median line. Risk reward was not great but still a winner. The big fast down bar made me think price may continue down but the confluence area worked very well. I need to learn to hold onto these but nice to grab a little winner to complement my usual trading.


cheers

It is true what Forktrader says about the 1min chart. I recently became aware of this myself.

Maybe consideration of Trigger line breakdown on EU60mins chart(mini fork) should be
give better selling power. Mainfork is in Blue, the trigger line is green. Minifork is in red,the trigger is in Magenta.

This 4 hour chart continues to show that price is still moving in the lines and bouncing nicely for trade entries. Anyone else have this fork?

I messed up on the first entry. Next fill was at 4346. I am targeting 4480 area. I see you have a target above 1.45

if you see the abcd pattern you have a measured move up to the green vertical/blue median line convergence. I use the fib expansion tool for this. Just my thoughts

Missed my entry, but price should climb here to 25% before running out of energy unless it continues to median line on a spike

I was looking at a couple lines on EJ. Looks like price is bouncing off of mod schiff fork uml and fork warning line. look for possible longs/retrace coming on lower tf. Measured move almost to the pip. Wow!

Thank you Tim Morge and Forexfactory for my 600th post. I love you guys.

eagelstar on a roll today.....

I have put GBPUSD on breakeven stoploss and after that I had a nice long position in EURUSD.
What a day today.
Here is the EURUSD setup.

Some early signs of weakening earlier... but now temptation to go long is
a liitle bit forcing
