C-12's Supply, Demand and PA thread

I've been asked about my swing terminal setup. I'm thinking of winding down that style down as I can't keep up with all those pairs and it doesn't suit my personality that well..

I would love to "set and forgot" and go on holiday but it doesn't work out that way in my experience. I like to be part of the action, be able to see PA unfolding live and for trades wrap up fairly quickly (1 - 2 days) and be out by the weekend.

Current setup is:

3 terminals (3 monitors)

1 = USDX (inc news calendar)
2 = GU (primary), AU, NU, UCAD
3 = EU (primary), UCHF, UJ, EJ

Trading should be mostly H4 with H1/M30 PA. There's plenty there to keep me busy without losing patience or control of the positions. Maybe the occasional M5/M1 on EU only if the action is slow out of hours.

AU - here's a bit more of a classic setup. We've got possible H4 engulf so might hold on and see if this mid- sup zone breaks. {image}

News coming up soon. Not sure of the impact but watch for some dodgy business around this daily demand level on EU.

There's a cheeky little H4 demand area on DX here to watch out for.

Damn, almost nailed it... Got the sell in just couldn't hold it long enough and then bought too early.

Really annoying since I could see it so clearly ... just poor execution.

Got some GU sells but some PA developed that was hard to ignore. Still 2 sells left anyway and buys are tight. {image}
lovely job!

I think GU is an interesting setup atm. Solid H1 engulf inside a daily zone

EU looks like a turd dangling off a cliff face. Daily demand is pretty much toast. Although break of it might provide a decent bounce though as it's a decent swing point and a great place to stitch up the trend traders.

News events always given me a good whupping still, even though I can see exactly whats happening. Haven't got the discipline or the nerve to trade it.

Reason for buys on GU... 1) Daily demand established (was looking for a retest). 2) H4 demand mid zone as a potential area of interest. I thought it was turning early so got in a bit too early. Then watched M15/M30 for PA. Unfortunately was a bit messy as watching it on my phone app. Hope this helps. {image}
c12 it;s really inspiring.... thank you

GU scalping displays. Should have made more of this, but it's around a full time job, looks like straight froward stuff if I was at home all day.

Managed to catch the early morning faker at least.

Hi C12, Do you use the supply/demand indicator while trading from office like you connect to your desktop from there or you trade only using your phone?
I too have a full time job and finding it difficult to understand the supply/demand zones... any tips would be much appreciated..

I usually trade from 7:30 to 8:45am and then go home for lunch between 12:15 and 1pm. I'm lucky I live close to work.

Then the rest of the day I try and check the MT4 phone app but sometimes guilty of taking entries on the phone...

It's all practice I guess but not an ideal way to trade.

You know what... I too live close to my office, only a 5 min walk just for trading, i moved near to my office last week and planning to trade from 7 to 8:45 at morning and then one hour during NY open, same as you... I lost some trades today as i traded using my phone at office and i want to stop this and trade only by checking the supply/demand zones....but using phone, i'm finding a bit difficult to find them...
