OK, that makes sense..I've done that a few times.

i see. so now you are purely on BO and ZC setup trades, never the retracement anymore?

Anybody seeing any set ups? I'm not seeing much right now.
Nothing much at the moment. Was caught out by the EUR jump.

By retracement, do you mean the retracement stage of the ZC trade? Yes, I do...I trade every setup as I see/find them. Pure retracement within a channel/ditch too. BO, 3 Taps...all of them. They are all related.

yes, you are spot on there, LG. however, i do a ZC within a ZC and then towards e original direction.
i hope i won't be hijacking your thread here by saying something which is a mutated form of your setup.

No, no hijacking at all..there are break outs within break outs and retracements within retracements...that's what makes it so interenting. Everyone has to find their own style and what works for them.

yup, thanks for your understanding.
i find that it makes e stop loss tighter, thereby reducing e danger.

entry point somewhere on the circled area in e diagram after PA confirms bearish, using a smaller TF

I think we need to let H1 candles close and another one open and start up before entering just as an extra safety measure against those false BOs we have been getting the last 2 days. A little addition confirmation.

just want to share my view on eurusd, at first glance it may not be clear but closer scrutiny will reveal some techniques employed in this thread incorporated within and also an attempt to deal with the target issues using Fibonacci etc basically my analysis starts with market structures then looking for candle analysis at crucial areas(TL, BO etc) so with that in place an informed view of general trend can be anticipated.

Waiting is keeping us out of USDCHF. AUDUSD is looking better for a BO.

In the AUDUSD. If the CHFJPY continues it's trend, it will rise a bit, then drop drastically. Keeping an eye on it.

LG,
Posting 1st time here. Been following for a long time. G/U tried breaking pivot thrice in 5 hrs. I maybe premature but upside BO seems more probable. See the chart attached. All 3 wicks below pivot end at 1.5546 (sort of triple bottom). But all indies in disagreement.
Please feel free to comment.
