Didnt take this one as I am done trading for the day, but again, the horizontal area holding nicely from the top of the range.
Obvious target would have been here and easily achieved.

Short taken on AUD 5 min chart, was originally going to target the RN area but this trade was just taking too long so took the position off at the lows.

Couple of EU shorts taken on 5 min charts also tonight. First one was taken off locking in some pips as this was my first trade for the night.

Second one currently has a BE in and I am going to let it ride and see how it goes.

Just need these lows and the RN area to hold as resistance, is looking likely that my BE will be taken out.

Sure no probs, ill try give some explanations with the trades as I take them.

This gonna be frustratiing if price just overshoots that RN area to take out that BE and then continue on its merry way

But oh well that is trading.

EU short 5 min chart, closed it out a couple of pips before my original target area but still all good.

Now just gotta get that AUD to push down slightly lower.

Closed out the AUD position for a small profit not quite at the target area. I need to take off to do a few things so figured just get out and will be back a little later.

Hi Fantom,

Indeed it is, nice work there

I have been out most of tonight and only just got home to take a look at the charts, a nice big drop by the looks.

Now to see if it can continue on its merry way for you.

Just want to compliment you DW on your trading style. You seem to be a very profitable trader.
I have question with regards your style though. I know how to identify the supp/demand zones but i am having trouble with my entries. How do you differentiate between the supp/dem zones?

At the minute I am constantly getting in at these areas but too early and get stopped out with my small SL that i set. Do you wait to see the 5min price action??

I can identify all the candle patterns. Or is it just a case of experience of how the price is acting at these areas??

Hi Rsherl,

Yes I will always wait for the candle to close before deciding what to do. I dont really talk supply and demand more so horizontal support and resistance. Many will argue otherwise but in my opinion it is essentially the same thing.

Candle patterns, candles themselves and simply how price reacts at certain levels in the market is what I tend to look for.

Cheers.

Took this one short on EU and got stopped out.

I moved my original target area to the next lot of lows and as you can see this did not go well for me.

Original target area would have been spot on.

Hey Dark,

clean charts, nice. Ever considered to switch from short to long (and vice versa) at your stop price?
