Many traders like myself do not need to be aware of the bigger picture to make money out of forex. We follow the order flow watching passive orders been hunted down with aggression then jump in at the extreme exhaustion points. I traded EURJPY quite ...

Now I love a trader who shares, I’ll check it out later. I believe you just nailed it, I let the price come to where I am waiting because recent historical data tells me that something normally occurs at this point on a grind. That point is just a ...

Hi v2vboni That was a nice video and thanks for the link. I am referring to how the market speed increases through areas of thin liquidity. When speed increases too fast, many orders get missed or passed over in this rush. Price then gets pulled ...

I don't believe we are talking about a top secret Algorithm that has a special code planted by a market maker to hunt down targets hundreds of pips away, but rather a Auction Algorithm that's coded to entice traders into grouping passive orders ...

There was a reason for that spike and the one on the previous day as well but you need to trade with a historical mindset. We are trading on an old battlefield that is scarred from previous price action, one that has two major hidden gaps. I suggest ...

Moody's great chart just puts more proof on the board that we are trading against a highly controlled Algo who's sole job is to run targets it has selected before retreating. The challenge for traders should not guessing which way price will move ...

Here's a thought that you should consider. The notion of where price movement is going is random in both speed, timing and direction. I agree its random. However there is objectives the Algo is trying to achieve through this random action. The moves ...

Yes, I check three brokers charts at the same time so I compare all three together to get a better idea. The issue is those candles all have gaps due to the way MT4 shows price action. It fills in the space and pretends there is orders when they are ...

More random, less random / god help me The only action that matters is the order flow of passive orders being consumed on M1 to M2. The Algo was running a liquidity pool on EU and when the passive orders were cleaned out, the next pool of liquidity ...

Forex is random

A hedge just holds a small loss till you get another chance to trade that position out to a break even point at a nice thin liquidity zone. It allows me to trade without fear on high probability setups on every session. I would say I would enter ...

Don’t give these Algo traders too much credit, they may be smart but they don’t understand the market with boundless knowledge. I spoke to a three time Algo trading world champion and I wasn’t impressed. They think too much but fail too open their ...

Hi Bwilliam, I offer input here in the hope traders see the manipulation occurring to their accounts is by Algorithm's, not Market makers. If you wish to trade spikes, it should only be done when you have a boundless knowledge of price mechanics. ...

Great, then you get the theory the market movements are controlled by an Auction Algorithm that is designed to hunt passive orders within nearby liquidity pools. Traders often believe the Market makers move price when the reality is they only ...

Dkrock, hope you are making some good coin with patterns but let me explain my point better. When you enter a trade using patterns, candle structures or some other price cycles, the change of winning is just slightly higher than 50%. Lets face it, ...

Yes, you are correct the markets are not random and also correct that all price action patterns generally don't offer a edge. Patterns are just shapes our minds see to make sense of these manic movements. I believe the mistake most traders make when ...

You need to go further back in time to discover the origins of that gap on EURUSD. In the middle of that Gap is a massive Target called a Vacuum Zone which was create back in June 1991. It caused a few reactions over the years but the biggest two ...

Why do traders use so many indicators?

Why do we need to know which side of the market the big players are sitting?, We only need to know whether we are looking at passive orders or aggressive orders that are being targeted. Once we know where the aggressive orders are sitting, we should ...
