Flying Dutchman

One winning and one losing trade for me today. Both trades had the confluences. RN, Pin, etc. The lesson for this was the timing. The first trade to my understanding was a loss cos i had not given atleast 30 minutes after Frankfurt Open to show me the clear picture as to what the market was trying to do. After around 40 minutes of Frankfurt open the real move showed itself and i got back on the train. So around a gain of 18 pips in total from a losing and winning trade. The lesson to take away was to give market time to show its hand. Had a long day and rushed a little bit. For the losing trade there were all the confluences apart from TIME, which never changes. Always something to learn. Trade Well All.

Does the UK box affect the New York box or vice verso. Maybe they are separate animals ?

My theory is that price flows from one session to the next. So, each previous session would have a direct influence on the next session.

GU H1 with days and sessions marked.

This time frame may have potential with how I do things. Need to look into this. As if I need more research projects.

I want the day to split further in to 6 candles of H4 to see the Price Action i.e., HH, HLs and LH and LLs

Please notice this on 1 Min. chart how market maker turns the price and load their order after taking prev highs and lows, i have marked only M30/H4 High/Lows, and we can also align it with H1 Highs and lows as well.

Nothing can be better than this, to see the price action from a HT to LTF and opportunities to get in and out intra day.

it is all available in my template in post #1 of my thread.

Thats a chart of beauty B ! Will have to study that in the morning when my eyes are fresh. The good ol MM sweeping liquidity up and down the chain filling their orders.
The Best Loser Wins
Couple or 3 charts....
Weekly Daily and 5m....

My long term bias on the US indices is bearish,,,for the time being..

I use a weekly marked up with measured moves and I note the pts pips in the swings...

Corrective impulsive and where are we now? is what I ask myself in relation to prior swings...
I will take swing trades solely off equal Measured moves that meet at a horizontal line...as they are much more reliable
than diaganol lines such as trendlines..or mmm should I say an equal high/low horizontal at or near a diaganol..
That should get the Magic Line Police fired up LOL...

Anyways back to serious business..

Chart of the SPX 5m 2 trades as clean as they get. All based on the 18 bar ALGO box. which i have posted about on here for the past year or two or so...
I think it has escaped many how powerful this box is...Yes 12 or 18 bars I know I use both The probabilities are somewhat higher with the 18 is all,,,

I cant stress enough the importance of the London Equity open and the NY... Thats what the ALGO is based off..the OPEN and the first 60/90 minutes
of the day...It sets the high or low 90% of the time.... A serious edge can be built off that thesis.....

Anyhow hope this helps some of you out...Ive spent countless hundreds and hundreds of hours back testing forward testing trading live the box the fibs the opens etc.

Cheers
Blue

Is it back to looking at Dax on 90 minute box instead of 60 minute box now?
Or is 18 5 minute bars only to relate to SP500 ?

Thanks Kev

Coming back to this. Some really good info. You are posting things that fit right in with my "advancement".
Mark ... Either you understand or you don't, and that is that.
Anyone here look at market sentiment, Risk On , Risk Off.

When stocks are going down eg. SP500, Dax, ( RISK ON) ).

Buy AUDJPY, NZDJPY, & Sell Gold, USDCAD

Really trying to make this my last post of charts before Christmas cos I am aware I am becoming a tad loquacious.

NY opens rises thru the daily open and quickly rejects off London equity open .. retracing back thru the daily open and below the NY open..
I may sound like a broken record but
RESPECT THE OPEN
It's a short term bias. It's the way the market works.
What has price done???

Just like so many days I have pointed out ..it has retraced back to NY open and rejected the open price once again with multiple multiple candles .. No strength
AND At a 61.8% fib retracement...there's your confluence ...enter short..
Hope some of you caught this textbook Open setup.. also study the setup right off the NY Opens rejection of London's open..a perfect double top shoet on the 1m.
Several great trades today... My days done.

Cheers

GU at this moment is sitting right at the CWO - current week open. Balance point. Equilibrium.

No trade for me yesterday. Saw a couple of opportunities after it had happened so stayed away. One trade just a while ago. Around 18 or so pips.

Hi Shabs,
I had a shot of sorts, yes, back in the day when trading a few pairs.
Since my single pair trading Andy got me onto a cross-pair sentiment view so I will have a glance at both USDJPY & GBPUSD in conjunction now with GBPJPY situation.

back soon enough lol, the quarters will begin sunday

It's just a nice simple heads up on the direction of trade using RISK Sentiment.

NZDJPY & AUDJPY are nice carry trades, where money can be moved quicky when Stocks are not doing well.
A form of hedging if you like.

Both Pairs achieved more than 100% of their ADRs'
