hi all,

just shorted euro at 4606 with 20p sl and targeting 1:1 as always.
Yes i can see that trade happening , on a 5m the two bars at 4617 ish will provide some resistance. Look at the 15m demand cluster at 4560 ish, have a few limit orders to buy there incase i fall asleep again, im really tired as fuck right now.

Your trade has good odds of working out, assuming 4597 doesnt retest again and go north.

Remember:

When a market goes for a retest and fails, the market will reverse immediately and do the opposite, in this case if it fails the retest at the lows it will start selling and dumping.

Good luck, im Flat on EU

Hello ,

You are purchasing at the point where the buyers are sitting(Demand zone) . You should buy there , not short here . Anyways you shd have a eye how price action react in this levels
Hi mangalesh,

the way i see it, that was not a "strong" demand zone. i simply drew that box out to rule out the possibility of being a demand zone but IMO, it is not a strong at all being it in the 15m timeframe.

i am seeing the next demand zone at 4560-4570. i am obviously biased short due to the bigger supply zone at h4 and it closed bearish

I told the previous trader that shorting was a feasible option since the trend was bearish throughout the day and his short might get paid off easily.

I placed buy limit orders in the upper red zone since that was a demand cluster and quite frankly the lower band of the weekly supply zone where you can expect a bounce once it breaks north usually. So i placed some buy limits there and voila trade worked out. Judging by the rate of deceleration this was nothing more than a rather big bearflag, so the upmove had to come either at this zone or the zone lower. 10year notes were also showing signs of weakening dollar demand.

The reason for the bear trend were the circled zones in the chart where you can clearly see the bearish flag structure forming very early throughout the day and then some confirmations throughout the day

Gotta go to another meeting now will be back later. Euro should attempt breaking highs again this week and go for the 1.50ish target again.

hi,

quick question, i notice many of you trading off a small timeframe. Are you actually getting your levels from the lower TF or for example finding a 4hr level then going to the lower TF for price confirmation?

hopefully i can start posting charts soon as well for critique not sure how many posts i need first.

hi nomad,

it depends on what timeframes you are more familiar with. i am comfortable with 15M and 30M hence i adjust accordingly.

of course, the stronger the timeframe the more important that level is. i find myself more or less a scalper and i have too much time infront of the computer hence i find 15 30M very suitable for me.

As for others, i think they are trading other instruments besides forex because i see gold, silver and others.

as for charts, i think you can post after 5 posts?

hi phanti,

no because i always adjust my positions according to the last swing high/low and if the risk:reward isn't great and the stop is too far away from the last swing high/low, i would just abandon the trade.

but i like the 20:20 rule hence you would always see me posting a 20sl all the time
