Hey guys,

Here is my only trade today, it is a 5 min EU chart. I managed to enter very close to the bottom (5 pip dd) because of drilling down and finding the decision point on the 1 min. Then I exited almost to the pip at the very top from drilling down my exit point in the 1 min. 70 pips in total. Thanks to everyone here for what you have taught me, expecially If!
Good job! Do u mind sharing how you set your TP and if you taken any partial along the way (and if yes, where?). Thanks

In this case the decision point was so good, and there was so little in the way on approach (In fact, the nearest S had already been taken out) that there was absolutely no reason to not take and hold the trade
Quoting Ifmyante
That would be a dead cert touch trade on price arrival
IF,
I assume u did a TT at pt 2 since pt 1 just tiny bit shy of the demand zone. For someone who missed pt 2, I wld think pt 3 is not a gd place to go long as its a 2nd/3rd time back and also it printed lower higher (bet pt 2 & pt 3). Is my understanding correct?

Can anyone see if my reasoning here is on the right track?

Anyone looking at Gold? I zoomed in on LTF to identify tighter demand zone but it seems there wasn't any reaction when price visited it today. It went down more b4 reversing. Did i identify the demand zone wrongly?

hI FX,

I didn't take any partial profit on this as but really it is best to take partials at the level where the last flag broke as this would be an area where another decision was made (depending on how it moves through the level). In this case I had daily demand behind my trade so it was likely to have more juice in it so i let it run.

Below is a 1 min chart of the level i scrolled back to find fresh supply. The reason I was looking in this area is because if you look at a 15 min chart you will see that price cut through the previous low (bear flag) with a nice bit of force and hadn't returned to the decision point yet (not compressed) When we revisited yesterday I expected the rally to flag from this point and not actually be a reversal point for the day, so it was a good thing that I didn't get too greedy.

Anyway I'm still learning too so don't take this as gospel, this is just the way I saw it, might not be 100% correct.

Thanks Naughty. I just want to clarify the break of low you are referring to (1.27577) is based on lowest close on M5 and not the lowest low (based on wicks)? Becos if its based on break of lowest low, it didn't break till 1.2753

We're all still learning from one another , thanks for your sharing again !

Holidays in Europe, no wonder its quite quiet here today.

Can someone enlightened me on why Gold was able to drop so much when demand on the way up was not consumed very much? Was the fresh supply the only reason it did what it did?

Hi Fx,

The point I picked is based on the fact that this is the only area that has not been revisited (uncompressed, fresh supply) Ideally I would have picked the level below if it hadnt had been compressed as this area actually breaks past the previous low, but because it had been compressed i moved up to find the next area of decision that had not been compressed. Hope this makes sense.

aha, got it. Am slow to catch on and missed your point earlier. I thought it maybe got to do with some liking to use lowest close, while some like to use lowest low. Thanks!

I saw you guys taking action on the USDCAD in PIE

Its not a fresh supply if I'm not wrong, would you consider this a A setup and your reason for taking it? I do see some CP on M1 into your Supply zone though

Good question, if we see for example big green bars on a move up, this means lots of unconsumed buy orders left at those bars so when price comes down it will be stalled, on the other hand we could say there is a lot of free space for price to fall, so which remark makes more sense

I do not know If'y view, but mine is that m5 S was quite fresh, and there was tiny m1 S. As you said, there was small cp but engulf was main key to enter

I've got a quick request

Did any of you happen to put together a file of any posts of mine which may be useful links on the first page?

If you have any in mind, I'd be grateful if you could post them. Thanks

i took the long on the euro as well but i closed it too early.
i did see price compressing but i thought that the demand level that broke (the one from yeterday lows) was swaped and now will be supply.once i saw the PB at that zone i thought here come the sell orders.was i wrong to think that?

p.s
IF you can be sure i have a file with your posts but there are too many so i will go throw them once im done trading and will post it here.it's gonna be hard to choose only few since you can learn a lot from each post but i'll do my best to pick the best ones.

have a goodgreen day everybody.

Very premature but if this level holds it may close the gap from start of week. Of course this is ambitious but alot of supply consumed on the way up??? Any breaking news would negate this theory but at present its very low risk high reward??

Looks to be forming a 1hr QM??

Am i a million miles off here? Ambitious i know but hey im only learning.
