Supply and demand in a nutshell by Alfonso Moreno

Quoting bobyv87
I put my long order on second speedbump on gold. First dont look like a speedbump in my chart because of brokers difference. Also, h1 trendline wasn't broken yet for me. {image}
I'm planning to go short on next supply. Daily supply still in control and for me at least, TL on 1h is broken.

Actually that supply is not valid until it takes out the demand, so I guess as Alfonso said previously, its resistance, I guess?
Hi,
here are some of my trades:
aud usd hits weekly supply, so i closed one of positions. +185 pips. Sl 11 pips. RR ąlmost 1:18
Another position i decided to hold, because we bounced from monthly demand area.

eur nzd sell.
Supply in controll. Took sell on h1 supply area. Now + 205 pips.

eur cad sell.
Supply in controll. For now + 225. Hope that will hit the target.

Congratulation Sebkor6. Would be interesting to see your position management. When you move the sl to BE. Do you use trailing stops to protect you, or you take partially profits? Thank you!
I have a loss on XAUUSD

Thank's

I move my sl to BE after price hits 2:1 RR.
I don't use trailing stops because this could cose, that it would not be able to get to the target.
When i have oppotrunity (sometimes i can't take partially profit) i close half of position after hitting significant supply or demand zone on h4, .

If a new supply/demand is printed on the higher TF, I think it is wise to hold it valid, even if it hasn't violated any supply/demand, until it is broken.

I wonder where your weekly and daily supply zones are?
In my chart we are in the weekly supply zone with some overshoot in yesterday's move.

That overshoot counts as a new level of weekly supply.

Weekly supply wasn't touched and price was rejected from d1 demand !

In my opinion there is an other valid zone underneath yours.

Hi Sebkor, where did you put your TPs for EURNZD and EURCAD, next daily demand? You said you put your SL to BE after 2:1 but what happens after that? I doubt anyone lets i.e. a 5:1 R:R go to BE because he wants his TP of 10:1 to be hit, so when do you move your SL to protect some of your profits?

Hi
yes, i put my eur nzd and eur cad TPs at next daily demand.
When we put our TP is very subjective. Someone wants to take profit after price hits 1:3 RR, someone want's to take whole move. When i know that supply is in controll on daily, i want price to hitt daily demand.
Sometimes price will never get to our target. As I wrote before, look at aud usd. I know, that we bounced from monthly demand speedbump. I close one of the position in the weekly supply zone, so now i have a lot of pips on my account. Another position i left at BE. Maybe it will proceed north and absorbe this supply weekly area, mayby won't. We dont know, but because of the fact that price respected monthly demand, maybe i will have a chance that price will go notrh to the monthly supply.

So speedbumps can be used as valid supply/demand in extremes?

{quote} So speedbumps can be used as valid supply/demand in extremes?
I'd say not for set & forget trades. But you shold be aware that it's there and watch the behaviour of price. In this case, price rallied, creating new demand zones.

So far it seems to me the logic is something like this:

1. Basic premise: Once price hit a higher TF zone of SD, price will react and will begin it's path to the opposing level in control of SD curve. First trade can be set & forget, no confirmation needed if level is fresh and at extremes. If speedbump, confirmation is needed.


2. Validation/confirmation: Price will absorb previous zones and create new ones in lower TFs. When this reaction creates new zones in our trading TF, then we begin to trade in the direction of the new trend.


3. Concerns: Higher TF opposing SD zones.


In this case.


1. Price hit a monthly demand zone and rallies.


2. Supply is absorbed and new demand is created in lower timeframes. As long as this behaviour continues, we can scale in at each new level, while the ascending trendline in the trading TF is respected.


3. If higher TF fresh supply is hit, then we may expect our trading TF demand zones to be violated, however we are trusting the trend. If you want to give the market the chance to prove if there is momentum, you may want to keep scaling in, and stop placing orders only if UTL is broken, and or when a trade fails. If you are cautious, maybe you'd like to pause, until price confirms you can continue to buy. Buying will be resumed when/if new demand zones are created while price absorbs supply zones in the trading TF.


If demand zones are violated in our trading TF, we can still verify if higher TF UTL are still in place, and expect correction will end at higher TF SD zones. However same rules apply to our analysis.


Price can even return to the origin of the rally, and then, again, we have to wait for confirmation trades.

Hello Axlz,
I am away on my mobile, I can smell the sea in front of me Your message was short so I just wanted give you a quick reply on speedbumps (I will make a video just on them soon):

  1. Speedbumps are best at the beginning of the move or while the trend is evolving. Once we are too high or too low, speedbumps are low probability
  2. Peaks and vallyers, that is, U and inverted U levels (swings) are best at the extremes

So, we should not use the speedbumps at SD extremes.

Hello Alfonso,

thank you for the reply, but I meant something a little different. Or maybe I misunderstood.

if we are trading on H1 and on daily we see price approaching a speedbump, should we treat it the same as a valley or peak, and assume that price may revers, or should we only assume this for valleys on our extreme TF?

I didn't quite understand!
If we see that price is approaching a D1 speedbump? Take a look at the AUDUSD Monthly demand speedbump, it's the same thing. Once we approach a fresh and original SD area on higher timeframes, we should respect it. If that D1 supply speedbump matches the D1 downtrend and even the Weekly downtrend, then we can set & forget the same way we've done on H4 shorts on eurnzd, euraud, etc. It's all about multiple timeframe analysis, where are we in the higher timeframes.

Also, we should never assume that price may reverse. There is only one thing sure about the markets, or anything in life and that is that we don't know what's gonna happen next. We have to respect higher timeframes if they are fresh and original, and even if they are non-fresh. I am not going to assume that a D1 supply is going to be broken because it's been retested 5 times. I can show an example of that. I trade on the premise that the higher timeframes have to be respected.

If you have a recent snapshot of this H1/D1 scenario, please share it so that I can be more "precise".
