DXY does, EURUSD is usually a slow mover that follows Technicals to the max but fundamentals mostly increases its volatility moreso I've observed...

Today was good day innit

Michael J Huddleston (ICT):

The mistake many make as developing Traders, is to assume that there is always an opportunity. The truth is, there are times when no low risk opportunity is offered.

It might look like it, it might resemble a time when it did this or that... but do not fall victim to this. Most indeed fall to this incorrect assumption.

For those in Forex, at the present, you might be finding it a bit harder to determine a Daily Bias. This is largely due to the market being held in consolidations in a moment in time... when every large fund is scratching their heads.

As Traders, we need volatility to profit. If the market is quiet, listless... or of no interest... money will not be funneled into it. It will require some future event to kickstart the interest in that market again.

That is what we are dealing with, at the moment. The Algorithm is not broken, changed or nonexistent. It is merely showing a prolonged period of consolidation. In short, the Central Banks are holding it still or "quiet" for now. This is a good thing.

Why is this a "good thing", you might ask?

There will likely be a period of incredible volatility in the coming months. Money never sleeps and it never grows tired of seeking yield. The Central Banks know this and they will serve up, in one manner or another, an increased pace in the markets.

Do not be surprised if it comes in the form of a painful, unwanted event. As a Speculator, we do not care what the catalyst or root cause was... we just want movement. For some this creates a moral dilemma and I will leave that for you to sort out. I made peace with that mental snare long ago... and it is a personal thing you will sort out for yourself... or not.

When markets are in quiet periods like they are in Forex, you can look at other asset classes like Index Futures or Commodities. I am personally keeping my eye on those markets and allowing the Forex market to get its footing again.

Patience is a hard thing to forge in a market like this. For the new developing students... you are trying to learn in the most difficult period in market history. Keep that in mind and never quit.

This too, shall pass.

As you were...

Mental skills are the key to trading…
A key point that Mark Douglas really seems to want to drive into people is: Even if your method is a high-probability method, it’s the proper execution of that method that you need proper mental skills for. If you don’t have those mental skills, even a winning strategy will lose.

Mental skills are things like; staying focused on the process, on your method, and not worrying about the consequences if this trade goes wrong. If you don’t have the proper mental skills to stay positively focused on the process of trading; on doing exactly what you need to do when you need to do it without reservation, hesitation or fear, you will not make money in the market.

It’s critical to remember that no matter how good your technical method is at generating wining trades, turning those winners into a consistent income takes the ability to do or not do some things that the method can’t help us with.
The method can’t force us to pre-define our risk, or with making the mistake of moving our stop closer and stopping us out prematurely, it can’t stop us from hesitating and getting in too late or from over-trading or from getting out too soon and leaving money on the table.
No matter how good the method, if you make mental errors you will lose.

If you really boil down what Mark is saying by his comments on “mental skills”, it basically comes down to having ice-cold ‘blood in your veins’ discipline. Mental skills like discipline essentially means the ability to control yourself and especially your behavior / actions in the market against the CONSTANT TEMPTATION the market gives us. Essentially, as a trader, you are fighting against yourself to see which part of your brain has more control; the older, emotional and more primitive part or the more advanced logic and planning parts.

Remember, it’s not IF it works that’s important…it’s WHEN it works that’s the

I see people now down play “retail trading” as if they know some holy grail strategy

Guess what? SMC is the new “retail strategy”

But if you think about it logically, retail trading MUST WORK at some point or there would be no such strategy!

This goes for supply and demand trading, Smart Money Concepts, Fibonacci, Support and resistance, candlesticks, trendlines etc…

A “head and shoulders” pattern doesn’t just randomly appear in the market. It would not exist if it didn’t play an important role. It cost millions of dollars just to move a single pip. Nothing is by chance.

Everything you see is deliberate and has only one goal in mind, to persuade you to think a certain way.

61.8 works sometimes
Orderblocks work sometimes
Trendlines work sometimes
Imbalances work sometimes
H&S works sometimes
EMA work sometimes
Divergence works sometimes
Structure works sometimes
Engulfings work sometimes

Should I keep going?

You can keep viewing the market from their side, or you can challenge yourself to think deeper, and see the TradeTalk side of the FX market.

The choice is yours
