Gfeuxay:I created another thread and put all the info in there, something to start with and get a feel for the market. teemy:Keep it coming Bro, great job. Others should contribute too, there's love in sharing)) |
drisi:I do sometimes, sometimes I got in with pending, I prefer market order though. I like entering trades after hourly bar or 4hrs bar just closed. This help you get in more precise and avoid some noises, I don't know how to explain it but from experience. If you trade lower TF, drag your history to your chart and see what I mean. E.g , you enter a trade at 10:10 AM , you see market dances around till maybe new one hour bar or 4 hours bar opens, before the market really moves in one direction. My take is a lot people enter at the new hourly open. I might sound incoherent but peeps with experience can relate. Ps: A/Chf trade I was stalking but missed it as I was out. Ps: I have overall direction I'm looking at, so I wait for 3 pushes(big enough retrace) before entering. Ps: A GU chart shows red horizontal line, means if 3 pushes break through that, I will ignore the trade.

E/U entry exactly to the pip, you got to love it when you pick it out like this. SL was 11 pips, +43 pips now, I'm going to set to breakeven, hold out for more. I'll let market decide breakeven or more pips.
|
Hope you guys catch some of the moves today. It's been little quiet here lately...

FILTER FILTER FILTER When and what to trade and what to stay away from. So say I'm looking for BUY entry, I want to see the market coming down for a while strongly and respecting the MA line. - Say I'm looking for SELL entry, I want to see the market going up for a while strongly and respecting the MA line.
|
FILTER FILTER FILTER. This will help you to avoid bad trades. Before you enter at all, look at this and use it to guide yourself. See that the market have been trending and moving in a good manner previously.
|
More entries examples.... i - You need to see price break/pierce deep through the MA Line. ii - FOR SELL - As i occurs, see that the price also break through the last HL(Higher Low) ii - FOR BUY - As i occurs, see that the price also break through the last LH(Lower High) III - Price come back and bounce off MA Line.

Rickrux0:I don't care about news except Non Farm announcement, once a month. If you're trading 5mins TF, you should care about the news. Good plan you've got. Now it's waiting game... For the set up to show up. Ps: As you're on 1hr TF, you should ignore trade with large SL, look for set up with tight SL and be picky. Pps: From the chart, I marked the previous buy. With daily big picture confirming it.

Good luck guys. Happy weekend. sconp:https://www.nairaland.com/4111155/learn-forex-trading-absolutely-free Same info , maybe add one or two things. Just putting everything together in one place. |
This info right here, some people will pay to value it but what they actually pay for doesn't hold any water. You can even trade on your phone as you don’t need no shining custom indicators to tell you what to do. What else do you need huh? I’ll tell you, just put in some work/effort and that’s all. ![]() Cheers. PS: Willing to throw in some insight, how and where to enter with reduce risk, 1/3 - 1/4 of your regular SL. Not now though You've got to show me you've put in some work.

All you need to make money in this business, take it from me. You have to be patient, wait for the right set up. Don't get all emotional chasing the price around... Wait for it, it will come to you. Do this for 2-3 month on 4hours chart, you'll be surprised. A lot of newbies don't get this info starting out (I didn't get it this easy when I started). They get a lot of garbage/nonsense from marketers that don't trade but just sell ebooks online. If you go through all the charts I posted recently, study 'em and know them, I tell you, you are far ahead of a lot of people trading forex. I tell you, even u go start to dey feel yourself like oga for this business. Ps: I'll post 3 simple charts soon label A , B, and C. |
Rickrux0:Great job bro. It's all about putting it to play, not just reading it online. To answer your question, I'll enter after bar close. So that I don't enter into fake move. And if the bar closes with too much movement that will require big stop loss, then I'll wait, market in most times retrace back to where they broke out from. Bigbasho plays it this way a lot. He waits to enter at the retrace from where the market broke out from. |
I'll continue with filter later. |
Mini Recap; 1, We worked on market structure ( Higher Low HL, , High high HH, Lower High LH, Lower Low LL ) , To determine Up Trend or Down Trend 2, Combining market structure with the MA Line Ps: With market structure, you should have a clue where the market is going. Check daily, move down to 4hours, you should see structure to determine/anticipate where the market is heading. If not, check another pair/currency. Pps : One of the charts below shows entry and where to put stop loss, SL.

After seeing 3 or more consecutive bars on bigger picture ( weekly chart)… You then check your 4hours chart for possible trade entry. MARKET STRUCTURE + SMA Line. FOR Buy ENTRY 1) You need to see price break deep through the MA Line. 2) As 1 occurs, see that the price also break through the last LH(Lower high) 3) Price come back down and bounce off MA Line before rising again.

SMA30 After seeing 3 or more consecutive bars on bigger picture ( weekly chart)… You then check your 4hours chart for possible trade entry. I’ll show you what to look for on 4hrs chart before you enter the market. By combining our knowledge of MARKET STRUCTURE so far with SMA Line. FOR SELL ENTRY 1) You need to see price break deep through the MA Line. 2) As 1 occurs, see that the price also break through the last HL(higher Low) 3) Price come back up and bounce off MA Line before falling down again.

3 or more candles on the weekly chart going in the same direction. Another chart again.

You cannot have 100% win rate in one day only to lose everything the next days. You cannot have 100% win rate in one week only to lose everything in the next weeks. You cannot have 100% win rate in one month only to lose everything in the next months. You need a SMART objectives and a win rate which you can sustain over a longer term with CONSISTENCY. |
G/Jpy Weekly bigger picture and next chart is after zooming into 4hours for the trade. Would all be perfect like this one, of course not.
|
This is very important, the most important to help increase your success. You need to look for minimum of 3 consecutive bars going the same direction with continuous trend on the bigger picture (WEEKLY as bigger picture. That's where you're looking at for the overall direction of the market). When you get very good at it, you can go as low as 4hours(for bigger picture) but now stick to weekly candle, 3 bars minimum. Don’t forget this is to teach especially new people. Stable and reliable way to look and enter the market, it’s not some 15mins system for get rich quick. You should look to trade this on 4hrs timeframe. This way you could trade and still have a life outside of trading and not stuck on your Laptop / PC all the time. Ps: If you're using weekly as your big picture, then you zoom in to 4hours to pull the trigger.

Optimisticgondy:Good one man, you can always ask if something is not clear |
U/Cad and U/Jpy both on 4 hours. There is a way to enter earlier or enter at the retrace, but now is not the time for that talk Ps: I really need to proofread what I type, especially the text on charts and I'm too lazy to go back and edit 'em. Sorry guys.
|
kunletoks:Let's not talk about distribution and accumulation just yet. When you look for 3 bars, it's on the bigger picture (So you don't need MA line), should be daily or weekly. If you use weekly, you are going to trade it on 4hours. If you use daily bigger picture, you will trade it on 1hr chart. 4hours is better and more stable, especially for new people. I think what you are asking is, after 3 or more consecutive bars, you should aim to get opposite entry. E.g you have 3-5 buy/bull candles, you should be looking for sell, with the use of market structure + MA LINE.

With little more experience. Anticipating

Uchf Gchf

That's all about Market Structure for now. Later we'll combine it with 1 MA Line to trade with.
|
You should read some more about it online if you still don't understand.
|
Market structure...
|
Maybe I should teach my intra-day method, usually not for new people, need some little experience to navigate it. Aiming for anything btw 20-50 pips ![]() People prefer intra-day, get in get out. Intra-day is less stable compare to long term trading. Running trades.
|
Put all the info together. First thing first, look at the big picture, look for consecutive bars first, then zoom in to investigate. Don't forget your filters. I'll stop for a while to post my live trades here, I'll hope post about this method with demo entries. Ps: Keep an eye on Aud/Chf for intra-day scalp ![]()
