{quote} hi nagy, you´re welcome. i´ve read so many books during my studies. i don´t belief there is the one that tells you all the important things... have nice weekend, too.
So, the only way is the hard way , Monitor time and trial and error.....no shortcut....
the problem is the more I read the more I get confused , and most of the successful traders won't transfer their knowledge " I don't know why " , as if they tell you their way it's never going to work for them again.....

MINI-DOW (1H)

Everytime I see a mazda pattern price most of the time goes down.. heheheh that pattern is my own invention btw

Edit: The first mazda pattern is the 100% mazda because the beginning starts from an earlier high. Where the second one looks like a mazda pattern but its left wing is not starting from high. So if that pattern fails it could be because of this little detail. Will try to study this pattern more with history data.

Happy Trades

Not backtestet actually.. but from experience around 70%..

Edit:
I prefer to wait for till I see a clear return.. which happens after an up down up down indecision pattern..
At least I don't enter any longs even if it seems to go higher. I wait till PA spits out the craziness..

Hey Ata. Topped out now. You would have got the target on the 30m using the MLs.

You are right dude.. one question.. do you use the candle bodies or the shadows while picking the 3 magnetic points?

I am measuring 16.940 on 1H chart.. the pressure is still high.. so be careful pls.

As per instructions. Mostly bodies. Tails for the retrace targets. In this case both worked.

Also it was a 74% retrace. The "Mazda" before that was about 90%. Food for thought. Cheers.
