Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade

my understanding of a complex correction is minor orderflow of hh and hl between the previous swing points that we were looking at.Like a range between the low and high in up trend

That is my understanding too

You are both understanding correctly. This is the only place where you may use the term HH or LL if you must label them for the sake of keeping track of them. I do not do this but I guess there is no harm as long as it does not disorient you from the expectation.

Hello master Damian
I uploaded my baby ''expectation analysis'' with a small question to have a look,just to be sure that i m doing fine

Hello Traders,

Wow, seems hard to believe that we have crossed 800 pages and 16K posts that's pretty amazing. Thank for all the support and your willingness to learn.

I want to lay down the foundation for the week to come. I will be making the video on Order Flow Analysis but before I do I want to recap what we have learned this week and it's importance on the process I use to trade these markets successfully.

We have discussed Structure Analysis. This is by far the most important of all of the analysis we do and the one most traders never really take the time to learn much less put the importance on it that it deserves. But if you have payed attention you have noticed how critical it is to profitable trading. This is the road map or in newer terms the GPS guidance system to where the market is going. Structure Analysis alone is over 70% accurate and on most days its in the mid to high 80% and it is an extremely powerful tool that will keep you in line with where the market wants to go. We have learned to form expectations as to what the market should do next and learned the value of holding price accountable to the expectations at hand. We also learned to identify and process complex corrections and that complex corrections are made up of short term price action or short term swings that often do not change the expectation. It is important to understand the context of this short term price action so that you don't get mislead into changing an expectation before it has failed. This should have cemented the importance of always having an expectation, ALWAYS! We also began to touch the concept of entries and how to align yourselves with the expectation and to where price wants to go.

I truly hope you all saw the value in Structure Analysis and how truly important it is to your trading. My goal was to remove the randomness most traders even experts believe the markets to be comprised of. Also to give you a sense of awareness very few traders ever gain in this amazing business I love so much. In short, I have given every one of you a crystal ball of your very own which we will keep polishing in the weeks to come to help you process the price chart with an accuracy that very few think is possible and the vast majority ever achieve. You will become skilled masters of price action and market harmonics and be in total control of a process that will yield you all the freedom you dreamed this business would provide you but has fallen short on delivering. I'm here to tell you an even bigger awakening is coming and I am honored and privileged to be the one to share this amazing gift with you.

Now we will add another layer of clarity to our crystal balls. Lets talk a little bit about Order Flow Analysis and what it seeks out to achieve. I told you all, that one lesson builds on the next and that Structure Analysis is the foundation well, Order Flow is the next layer in this building process. It cannot exist without Structure Analysis and is how you will start to identify strength and weakness. This is where we start learning how to compare and contrast and how we start to give value to our expectations or when they are likely to fail.

This lesson will be difficult for most of you I am anticipating a tough week ahead but if we take it day by day and apply what you have already learned to what is being taught I promise you that you will get there. Take you patience pills as this for most of you will be very difficult. I'm not trying to scare you but I am preparing you for the challenge.

So what will you learn:

 

1. We will learn to assess strength and weakness. This is important because it will help you understand when a trend is gaining strength or losing strength. It will also help you understand if your expectation is weakening or strengthening.
2. We will learn to give our expectations substance by giving them an expectation of their own. We will be learning to have an expectation as to how deep a correction should come and how far a continuation or an extension should go.
3. We will learn when it is likely that we could expect a complex correction and when we shouldn't.
4. We will also be learning to ask ourselves what does this mean through the process of comparing and contrasting.

This looks like a lot to absorb but if we need to extend our week we will lets play it by ear. We will take it one day at a time. Order Flow Analysis is how we filter setups, identify better areas of interests and PRZ, and helps us understand with what degree of aggression we need to manage our trade with. It also helps you see the market with a whole new light. It helps you see the market from a perspective of strength and weakness. How important is that?!!! It's extremely important. I will make you feel like a Jedi Night I promise you.

We will be stripping another layer of cloudiness and refining our skills further. If you thought Structure Analysis want strong enough and having an expectation has brought you light years ahead of the majority, imaging now when your expectation all of a sudden have an expectation too this will blow your mind. And you will feel like you could read the future because you will be able to read the future.

This will not come easy and it will take you lots of practice but spend the time and the hours necessary beating on your craft. The reward of this is just something I can't put into word.

Anyway I believe I have talked enough. I will be making the video tomorrow and posting it then as well. So get your rest! The only easy day was yesterday! Talk to you soon.

This will be great!

Holy crap, what an inspirational post! I can't wait, this is going to be good.

hopeful AB=CD AND gartley confluence

having just bumping the tread i am indeed lost and very confused whee to start from reading the thread...... however i hope the catch up as i folow the subsequent posts. thanks mr pips fr the good job.

Waiting desperately for the next video

I update the first post with the link to where to start. I will not comment on your prior post because it's off topic at the moment we will get there just want everyone to get on the same page. Thanks your your patience and hang out it will be fun a hopefully you will pick up a thing or two that will help you.

Hello again,
just another question
,if it is already been covered show me the post
thank you

nice one sir ....... pls can i have your clarification on the difference between CYPHER and SHARK pattern....... thanks

Again off topic for the moment but I don't trade the shark the are similar in appearance but have different ratio values. What is your experience with advanced patterns and harmonics?

The biggest differece is that it's completion point can extend past its point X.

1 word answer....ratio....further info needed..pls for now consult the great encyclopedia called googleMr pips is in a strict teaching schedule

Well...
Sorry for missing a few days....mum was taken into hospital suddenly and thank goodness she is getting better.
It didnt turn out to be as bad as it looked but was still serious.

So...

I caught uo with the thread and watched the video.

I guess i understand where we are....just need confidence knowing when price is in correct phase.

I think practice on charts is needed .

Looking foward to next step of orderflow

Glad your Mom is okay and it wasn't as serious. Looking forward to the next lesson.

Yes 16K posts is amazing. Not to many threads can claim the same, especially in the same time frame. Congrats to you Damian!!

Great intro to the next lesson. Thanks for the 1st week of training and continuing to take precious time out of your day to help all of us. We are very fortunate to have this opportunity to learn from you.

Looking forward to tomorrow and trading this coming week!!

Hello Traders, I just got done making the video and I think I'm going to be posting it tonight reason being is that this is a more complex process and I want you all to have more time to process the video and have plenty of time to watch it a couple of times if needed. I will also be making a second Order Flow video because I did not want to overwhelm you. Remember to take it in first then start applying it to the chart. Don't forget about Structure Analysis. The video is rendering now and that will tame some time.

Hey Master Mr Pip:

You use to do this and I think its great cos there is a number behind every levels and I am wondering whether you would be able to continue on this basis?
