Hi, I am learning how to use the probability enhancer correctly. Can you pls tell me how you would classify this level? I mean the strength of it - the way PA left it.

I gave 1 of 2, PA leaves gradually and then after a couple of bars it plummets.

How would you score this one?

Thanks

Les_Paul

EDIT: The level was crappy, PA went through it like a hot knife through butter...

Take it on the second or third engulf down, start selling into the flag with tight stops

I hope you will like it, if some coders are reading this, please add alert to it, improve it, and then, we might have to shut FF down cause we'll be kicked out for making too many pips."

Maybe i was not clear enough. What I meant is that engulfings on the left of your chart represent key levels on the right of your chart, and price will likely react at those areas. The circles are meant to show you how price did react at the previous three engulfing zones. What you are talking about is the PA that occured in the zone of previous engulfing, OK, so you're not mistaken, thos pins are not engulfings, but they are confirming that something is happening in reaction of previous strong moves. Is that better ?

thanks for taking the time to make your post emene. much appreciated. i think i had it confused myself so im glad you pointed it out. i guess i thought outside bars did kind of mean englufing. i the sense the completely covered/absorbed all of the previous candles open and close.

Don't know why but the indicators are slowing my mt4 heavily. Additionally it is deleting my trendlines everytime I'm changing the tf's.

True, trendlines must now be drawn in another chart, or they'll disappear. As I said, there is more coding to do but i'm not a coder, unfortunately. As for the slow down, I had no trouble but I guess if you're working with 30 pairs, it could slown down the processor, indeed.

thank you for the detailed explanation. i see why you marked the right hand side of your chart the way you did now. basically we are looking for engulfing on the left, marking them as supply/demand zones, and then waiting for PA to return to those engulfing areas.

do you use PA confirmation to enter the trade once price returns there or do you set orders?

also i had a few questions about exactly how to spot the engulfing patterns in the first place please...

thanks for the help

You can wait for confirmation or just set orders.And for confirmation u can use again RED's words THERE IS NO MOVEMENT UP OR DOWN WITHOUT ENGULFING.

whats the difference between the 2, and are they basically marking engulfing areas for you, because they look good.

I trade via Touch and go. Well it just missed my entry, i guess there was more willing demand just above the level itself. My question is: is it a good idea to buy when the price reaches my ENTRY? profit margin somehow looks good. atleast: r:R = 1: 3

on 5 min chart we can see large bull candles and small pull backs, is this finding more buyers ?

You always need to go the logic through!! I actually don't use those SUP/DEM indicators.

EDIT: well there is a chance for prices to reach upper supply levels.(nevermind the blue pointer)

Hi Emene,

Out of the 2 indicators, "CANDLESTICK_test.mq4" and "CANDLESTICK_test_wicks.mq4", which one are you using ?

And what are the actual differences between the 2 indicators as I could not easily see any visible differences ?

Thanks,
FB.
