I'd like to share the way hw to learn RED's thread. Just my method, maybe not the best.
Ask yourself these questions when reading RED's charts(dont look at the pairs' name or tf):
1. Is it U or invert U?
2. Where's the supply?
3. Where's the demand? (If its a long trade, should ask the No.3 question first --- find entry zone first)
4. What the candlestick patterns to support the entry?
5. Is the entry near a trendline/major support resistance line?
6. Whats the trading routine according to the U/invert U shape? (eg. Top--->Bottom; Bottom--->Halfway; Halfway--->Top. I found the hardest trades is the ones starting from Halfway, coz we dont the trend will continue or reverse)
7. How did RED set up his stoploss and target? Whats his RR for each trade? Soemtimes RED changed his initial plan after entry and just gain as a scalping, why was that?
8. Correlation if there's any.

Especially question #4 was / is important to me, engulfing AND other candlestick patterns, including the spikes and fake moves are wonderfully demonstrated by Red.....
Good trading to all.

Closed my eurusd 1h short, closed eurgbp 30min short....
I am more of a swing trader, but Red´s way of looking at charts has really helped me enormously. I hope our feeble attempts ( compared to him ) puts a smile on his face sometimes...

We all remember " here we go again " when Red explained compression into supply.....well, this NZDUSD daily chart looks very unusual to me.
We will see during the next 2 weeks how this develops.
Good night......

Done this week, totally 16 trades, 4 losses, winning ratio 75%, RR around 1:1(sometime a bit better, sometime a bit worse, each trade diff). The biggest profitable week since learning S&D, maybe coz i use 1H chart
?
However, its nothing compared to the old gang and master RED.
I remember the feeling for which trades/patterns i was hesitate and confuzed, which are not. Still learning.
If ur passionate to learn S&D(or trading), please put ur trigger at least one time a day. U'll improve a lot day after day, skillfully and mentally.

buy EU, short UCan, closed most of position, rest@ BE. I NEVER feel it too early to move sl to BE when im NOT SO SURE about the current mkt. Manage trade is more important than an entry signal.
Never turn a winner to a loser, and Im thankful to any profit
