Good buying pa on that last chart. If lined up with a nice htf zone aswell its usually good for atleast 1:1

I was studying price turning point around FTRs then I had a realization. I notice that price seem to turn at the tip certain compression zones(price didn't enter into the CP zone until after it travel for some distance). So I studied compression zones that tend to bounce price before price could get in the zone. I realize that CPZs that deflect price have its origin created by engulfing another important FTR. Therefore CPZ is really multiple overlapping FTR taking out each others orders. An as a result the last FTR standing is just as good as any...
Hi Binyamin,

Are you able to explain what you've said above but on a very simple line price chart drawn by hand?

Or let me put it another way...

It doesn't matter which pair this is or the timeframe but this set up today. Can you describe what you see?

Thanks, CB, that's pretty much how I see it. The (dare I say it) straightforward bit is the zone identification and entry. The difficult bit is keeping off both the trigger and the analysis of all that mucky business in between zones. Well done on the bullish setup btw - it was a great buy.
Hey Simon,

Thanks for confirming. I think we need to discuss this further, as these kind of setups don't always work as such. They definitely give an edge over anything else I've studied but still need refining. Unfortunately I have to rush out... I would have just loved to stay here and discuss this further. There's always tomorrow

Cheers,

And Happy St. Patrick's to all (this will be me in a few hours ... LOL)

What we saw today with the example that you labelled is in my view, the absolute most confirmation that this market will ever give a trader of its intention to move from one price level to another, and in the process pay a profit. But remember, even when the market offers a "AAA Setup" there can't ever be a guarantee that it'll work out - the laws of order-flow simply won't allow it; this is what risk-management is there for.

In terms of refining one's "edge", it's such a subjective process that, believe me, only the individual should ever take it up. And this is where every trader need to study, in his/her own headspace. At its most basic, once the market has stated its intention, one needs to have an ongoing risk-managed criteria for entry and exit, and not waver from it.

CB's posts are almost exactly what I am looking to trade. The white dotted line is simply my daily open.

Thanks Simon. Thought you would be in bed by now...

It's in Limbo at the moment. Looks like it may be impatient to add 70 -80 pips (agree with your upside view). No real news to affect it so it's free form atm.

Similar setups with other markets that I watch. NJ, EU, UJ (short side).

Binyamin,

You could have just added 2 - 3 of your own lines to the original chart and pointed out a 3R trade.

I say this with the absolute and utmost respect that I can give you. For me in this thread, Compression (if a trader sees value in it) is fine to discuss, as are flags. But as for all the rest of the terminology that you are using, this belongs in RTM. Please post these types of charts there. Stick to a couple of simple lines here.

Regards,

Simon
All,

If what you're looking at on a M1 chart doesn't make sense, keep stepping up a time-frame until it does.

GBPJPY tech.

M30 has made a new low in M30 demand. The relevance of that is questionable for me at the moment.

M15 levels look promising but it's a tight range and with FOMC today, anything's on the cards.

The M30 bullish decision point has been taken out. Am currently monitoring this pair on H1.
