{quote} thanks for the reply 2121 ..good call wasnt looking at the news ..i pulled the chart up looking for past possible entries after work ,,from what ive seen not a lot of entries at the moment ... due to sideways movement .
Your entry looks close to what we are trying to find but still has some nuances.Yeah, no trades from me today, my last one was yesterday AJ @ 95.54, got a 4:1..

Hi guys This is a H4, I love this time frame {image}
hi jymarc ..i dont know how your trade went mate ..good i hope ...the entry wasnt strictly to the criteria as i see it ..
the pullback off point 2 rose above the previous tops so making it a notrade for what what rifid looks for ..
just for education purposes ....all the best.

Thanks Roofer for mentioning this mistake.
I did take a bit of a loss on this one (demo). Will keep my eyes opened next time.
Regards
2121 - just found your trade on AJ. Well done - and it looks like a perfect entry. They are few and far between, and you sure have to be patient.

It is Friday. Market may not move much now.

Hi, you must take the candle high not close/open, then the second point would be lower. If you flip to H1, you would find out a resistance @ 1.36511 and last it is end of NY session and it's friday.

Hi, I personally did not find any trades today, but I usually leave the desk before LC on fridays. Talking about NU trade, if you flip to H1 you would see that PA is iffy and no clear direction, you would also find a support level @ 0.8766 clearly visible even from the M5. The setup was close but it seemed to me a bit too steep.

2121 ..thanks for feedback ..certainly reasons not to take the trade ...but as always the market does what it wants and was targeting the 53 support level ..
GU ...i was eyeing this one up earlier before it broke higher but decided it was friday evening so left alone ..even so worked out ..this looked valid to me... may disagree ..uptrend with pullback and bounce of round number and pressure building on point one ..have good weekend .

Hi rifid and all contributors and thank you.

On pg 13, post #244 "hg2014" posted a diagram which was consistent with my concept of the set up you are showing us.

Post #250 from "mc19" shows the chart below;

to which your response was (post #252);
"Yeh there was a very quick entry there, may reform for another yet"

If you have time, would you please show me (us) the "Quick Entry" you mentioned.

I have marked up the chart with my interpretation of what I've read up to pg 14 & the last three pages.

Thanks,
Darryl

rifid, or someone else that is certain of this answer;

• Mention is made to "pinny" candlesticks. Does this observation apply to pins in both directions or only pins which seem to get rejected at each attempt to break the price level for entry?

I have my own ideas on this however clarification from you would be much more valid than my thoughts.

.This is interesting one as it looks like a side ways market, but if you squash your chart up a bit you will see that it is just a fairly long consolidation of a down trend. You will also notice that the last retracement is fairly pinny which is usually not a good sign but in this case you can see each of the candle sticks ends down in a hangman style fashion indicating that the sellers are stronger than the buyers ,then the buyers finnally give up and the price crashes thru your entry and hits your T/P in less than 5min, The charts i have shown...
hi Rifid
as you mentioned SL should be 5 pips ,but I see here in the chart is only 4 pips, any reason?
thanks

In case I missed this:
1. Is there any guide or restriction on the number of bars between points? Can it be as few as 2 bars?
2. How about the width of the "void"? Can the void be a much greater number of bars than between the points?
I look forward to anyone's reply.

All s/l are 5 pips, part of the method

There is no restriction on the number of bars between points as can be seen in the chart examples I have posted, the last retrace before breakout will nearly always be smaller than previous and definetly lower,[for short], last retrace can be as few as 3 bars as long as a void is formed.

When i refer to 'pinny' candles i am refering to largish wicks both top and bottom, indicating indecision in the market and best to stay out.
