EURUSD PA TRADE @ H1 DEMAND ZONE. ENTRY BASED ON M1 PA.

Trade Result Breakeven. Was aiming for move higher into H1 SR level.

1) Manually closed it for breakeven, after price found supply at 1.2465

2) If the setup is to work, it should have gone up instead of coming back to my entry point

3) Also if you look on M1 chart (Chart # 2) that important SR level at 1.2459 broken on the way down, which should have held if buyers want to take price up.

Hi Alifari,
I took almost the same trade RR 1:2.5. My entry was 10 pips higher than the ideal entry should be in my opinion. Almost hit the Stop. Worked out good in the end.
Is it OK to post in your journal from time to time? If not I can delete my post.

Nice profit. I actually was looking for instant rejection and move into upper supply zone, but price reaction was slow, so decided to cut trade with small profit.

Moreover, you are welcome to post your trades & questions in my journal.

to start with, you see in my chart, there are two red turns. those turns are confirmation PA. {quote}

Sorry I still don't understand where I should look for PA confirmation on your chart.

http://www.forexfactory.com/attachme...6&d=1418759445

Two red turns? I lost you here completely. In what form or shape they are in the chart?

I though PA confirmation is like a pin bar, or engulfing, or…so…..can you point out in the chart what exactly "two red turns" are please?

as a side note: I am familiar with the concept supply/demand Mark Lovejoy is teaching


p.s. Maybe the question really should be which is still unanswered…What exactly is a PA confirmation for you?

sorry, i wasn't clear. but i thought that you've in fact understand it. you are correct, it is about pin-bar or engulf to confirm, or similar

check the chart, it is a chart by Lovejoy80, i put some notes (red and green) on there. hopefully self-explanatory. you may see that my 3rd point is in fact explaining that LJ's original trade.

Ali, hope you don't mind this post of mine, i feel reluctant to answer it in your journal,

Hi Charvo & airmac,

You guys are free to post any discussion related to supply & demand trading in my journal. In fact I like progressive discussion and I feel it's not about being right or wrong or ego thing, it's all about giving your point of view and the way you look at charts.

As regards to trade you were discussing, although there was stacked supply zone, I thought that would be the first zone where price would react and it actually very much did that, but as I said earlier the entry and take profit was little off, so no regrets.

It's one of the trade that didn't work out, but in past there were many trades that did worked out with similar price structure, so I always think in terms of probabilities and not worry too much about a single trade.

Have a nice weekend and happy holidays.
