this trade on demand i mentioned last week i was in on it, got 50 pips in the positive, so i moved stop to BE but i am now out of that trade, remember these zones are ALWAYS at least good enough for a reaction to get into breakeven.

guys u need to be careful couple of these trades are taken from swing lows rather than a demand zone u need to know the difference, for example look at this GBPJPY trade a poster took a few posts ago, this is a swing low, not a demand zone can easily be broken, there was no consolidation equal bars in a row etc, showing equlibrium. Once you can tell the difference your strike rate will increase.

Now here is a quick trade i took today while we are trending strongly, notice the long row of bars all nearly in line, its NOT a swing high, its a perfect eqilbrium, price was stuck there for a while, then it broke down, I now know this area has "FRESH" sellers sitting there, coz it was equal so thats how i know they are fresh winners. I got 40 pips from this move from a 19 pip risk.

You can find these all over the place on all timeframes, remember a swing high or low is not fresh, ignore swings, look for equal balance like this, nice long balance where price is pretty much going in a straight line.

2 differences on the same chart, now im not saying eurusd will not go up here it might do, but not a trade for me, as u can see its not quite equlbrium, now notice my upper level where i sold at, price perfectly went in a straight line for a few days like a rectangle before price broke down. These are the subtle differences u need to watch out for.

Interesting observation as Sam tells that the less a price was in a zone the more is inbalance and the stronger is move out off the zone. According to you it's vice versa, isn't it?

No thats exactly true!! but u still need the equilibrium, look at my chart above price found a eqilbrium, the upper level im talking, and only there for 3 bars or so and left, next time price visited didnt even get a chance, it went straight down, no drawdown whatsoever.

This is where people are getting confused, we need price to stall and make a eqilibrium, BUT the shorter time is better BUT i say again, it still needs to make an eqilbrium.

What you guys are doing are going look its demand, its a swing low, because price didnt stay there long, NONONONO!!!!!! thats demand being used up from somewhere else, we dont wanna trade OLD demand, so when it creates a sideways movement we now know at least this area is fresh once it breaks out one way!!

Thank you Dean!

You made a post of a great value as I noticed that what's looking as a proper zone doesn't work as expected. I'd like you make some comments and observations as a topic starter and an experienced SD-trader! I strongly believe that everybody will benefit a lot out of your posts.

And may I ask you to comment the pic? Here there are 2 zones: are they valid and which one would you have taken?

Can you see now where you traded from was a swing high and was that only, it was NOT a supply zone, the real zone was slightly above where price congested and went sideways, that area you traded from was actually the first touch of the supply i marked, hence it didnt go far into it, todays entry into supply which is second touch went much deeper which of course makes sense, coz orders have already been filled from the first touch of the supply, you see how easy it becomes if you can learn from these mistakes you will spot these in the future.

yes thats a good area you picked, thats more like it, congestion of candles its not a swing, and it wasnt in balance for long, you would be unlucky if that didnt play out
