Order flow? That'll prob boggle my aging brain. Pull back candles on 1hr in trend ie 1hr higher lows/lower highs will for the most part give you all that you need. See the chart about 5 posts above to explain all.

If you had your daily pivots on you would notice that PA crept through the daily pivot during the asian session. Then at the LO there was a clear bounce off the pivot and PA went down.
A lovely short trade couldve been taken for 50 to 70 pips.
Ignored
I had the daily pivot on the chart. Not for te post. Not sure when to use that tool for a bounce. Is it only the daily pivot point or both the pivot and the SR level for rejection and bounce trade.

I do have trouble deciding when to kill atrade or what to look for to get out of one.

I saw two pullback candles on the chart. The blue one mentioned and the candle after that was red and pulled back. In realtime, how do I know which is the valid one. I see this happen on the charts a few times.

10 trades this week.
9 winners.
1 loser.
+419 pips.
In retrospect, I should have only taken 8 trades.....I broke the rules of my trading plan to enter the Asian session trade on Thursday and I should not have taken the long Friday morning trade INTO resistance.
Overall a good week.

hello Phx62
first thank you for your clear explanation of how to use TDI
second i have one question regarding to the trade triggered on 7-2 ..15:00
your vertical line indicate the entry candle but as i notice in this candle neither the TDI was crossed nor the previous candle ( red candle ) cross the MA .. so was this candle near S&R ... what reason did you take in your consideration in this trade ....

I agree. they basically talking more or less about a pull back candle, Making it sooo mysterious.

i dug that rabbit hole a long time ago. I'm one step ahead of those guys.

Hi hale mary

My 2c worth. Always ask what happened and what was the reaction.

Your eur up candle buy. OK what happened - 40 pip ish strong candle little/no upper wick should = move up. Reaction - no follow through immediately followed by neg close candle forming a 1hr lower high.

A good candle move should have an appropriate reaction if not then theres something afoot.

And for what its worth there did seem to be a good base around 3250 looking back over last few days giving decent chance of a move up even if only to the highs of last few days. Against that the last 2 days general struggle higher did hint that we may be getting to top and just maybe the start of move down may be coming. One of those it can be a buy and sell day off 1hr IMHO.

Sounds as though you will need to buy Darkstar's book to get the answers somewhat revealed. I have bitten on these teases before and they so far have turned out to be hoaxes. A true example of smoke and mirrors is TKPower8's ATM.
Ignored
Hi Wrenski

I can totally appreciate why you would think this.

it wasnt that long ago that Darkstar was NOT a commercial member, he wrote some very educational pieces on order flow and the like, i think it was 07-08, so it was a while ago.

I have just been looking to find said article i have also noticed he is now a commercial member, I have NOT read his book so by no way advocate
the buying of his book....

Some of the articles i am talking about are either here on FF or they have been deleted by darkstar, because of the new book ??.

All I can say, is that it opened my trading to a new dimension,
there is no Aston Martin parked on the drive if you get to know this information,
that was just a white elephant thrown in for good measure.....

Its just more knowledge on this subject will certainly help you down the path of trading The forex markets.
I will try and find the post ( he has over a 1,000 posts ! )

Ja.

Too bad it's Friday evening. The price is resting nicely on the 200 ema. Over the past days/weeks we have seen a reversal on this level.

Well, nothing we can do about it. I won't take any new trades now, will see again on Monday.

Have a great weekend all!

Hi,

See attached chart.
Do you know which TDI version you have on your trading chart?
When you start MT4 and open your charts, it all look the same.
But in realtime, there are some differences and these can cause you problems when you use TDI cross and TDI bounce.

Study the attached chart carefully and spot the differences in realtime mode.
I used GBPJPY just few hours ago to illustrate the differences which are captured in realtime.

Never trust and rely solely on technical indicators. The only thing you must trust on your charts is the price...

Hi Emmanual, thank you for posting this information.

I am using the TMSwatchDog TDI indicator. I am not sure if this one is the real time version you are referring to...


Could you please post the realtime indicator?

To be honest I haven't even been looking at the TDI that offen when placing trades, price shows you the way!

Demo traded myself a nice 30 pip gain this morning on 1Hour E/U.
Shorted the start of 11:00 GMT candle after 10:00 GMT pullback. Could have taken more profit (at the moment i would have been +70) but i guess thats all part of learning!
Most important thing is that it was a winner, anyone else trade this?

Well done, exactly at least your a winner! Missed it here

Hi Phx62

I have recently started following your weekly analysis of your trades and your results are truly amazing. I am looking up my chart and trying to emulate your trade entries as my learning to trade. However I am not clear on how you entered your +150 trade on 7 Feb because I could not see a trigger candle? Hope you can elaborate that entry for that trade please. Thanks so much.

Hey Man - I am glad you threw the info into the ring. It has a lot of merit but I am not going to buy in. If you find some old information from Darkstar I would love to read it.

There is so much free info here from the likes of X-Man, Phx62 and many others that I see no need in looking any further.
