jr , a 30 minute candle ya say , what ya think is happening , no reallythought it was a "gold" thread but I know that chart aint moving I understand
{image} poor ole pound needed a breather I reckon
From what I have seen. Price has swept liquidity below a significant low on the 4hour and also tapped into a 4 hour HTF FVG. Naturally it was reacting off of that and the uptrend that occurred after the previous NY session swept the previous Asian session low was a direct result of all of this. Time basically blended into price. The overall trend of the market is bullish right now and there was a good chance that the move to the upside that happened yesterday was price correcting itself into the overall Higher Time Frame trend aka bullish. Yesterday was a probably a bullish swing trade entry that someone probably could have held for weeks. If I'm wrong and price goes lower in the upcoming week then that could mean2 things.
1. Price has another FVG below that it wants to test.
2. Price is looking to give a break of structure on the weekly.
Price shows movement, Time shows meaning.

an you do realize it is BUYING or SELLING that makes it move right, simple concept really all them fancy terms well just parrot squawk really, we both bout same age I think , 2nd generation somewhere tho , sure it will click , kinda came with some things for me. gbp nzd is fine as said it dont matter much , how did ya get here and what did ya start doing , 11034236 number for ya may come back around when "just another one " may get mentioned will say probably not what ya really "aspiring" to bebefore we were born , but all the info ya got an the 1st swing ya can find
an how is "business" measured should know by now , the yardstick is what, ? a Quarter , good place to start some tails and bodies may tell one something , they may not they should tho , least if one pays attention to those who actually "move it" probably not talking bout "retail" and there would be some big names in there that think otherwise but they aint any idea where any of that stuff is ,on the here now in your face view 
same half hour chart , probably not really a "m30" any more when it "looks like" that but it is , daily well one can see the mid aand a quarter mid , may tell some some things , once again may not retail probably not so much but whatever which m30 candle ya gonna throw your tater in an become rich beyond your dreams , ya already living in paradise cept when the wind gets to blowing too hard
that number would FF membership currently , look round see how charts look the same same things spewed same drawings same same everything and few will agree on anything , took a bit of a hit when it got found out how many fake bots were on tweeter ,bout same percent purge , probably an "industry acceptable " standard , what ever no big whoop either way , was just over a million then , went to less than 600 k over nite , now back to there , as one youngster to another , the world may not be whats it made out to be ,or it is what its made out to be , depending on well never mind , even "big time trader" parrot squawk
the fvg s the poc s the abc s dont forget the BRN s an omg liquidity sweeps and traps an on an on an on hell lets throw the hokey pokey in there too maybe a row row row your boat an what not ,

jr , okay , welp who in their right mind would be selling there , in a place some with much more than micro tiny tater tot lots might be winding some in, in a spot some might "anticipate , ah never mind probably "retail" and their fancy terms and vids to become a guru in the land of "just another one , boy that would have been a nice m30 candle ayyy 
an by weeks end as the crow flys , would say there some lobbers (SELLERS) saying welp sh=t cept maybe the actual ones playing chess , probably some of the lobbers and pucks (buyers) same bunch of yahoo s, how long for the late red fellers pack it in or do the lobbers show up rip roaring ready to go when the chart starts moving again an keep er below some sh-t an a dribbling down , tune in at your regular scheduled times and witness it before your own eyes and pick the right m30 candle an no , no guru , just a dumb azz kid like you did have a teacher tho that encouraged not reading some certain garbage , came after the fact ,and wow what some go on bout is bout all I can say wish ya the best man , I will let it "rest " too

{quote} I know this sounds crazy but it was actually 4 days in a row. 5 actually, since it happened the Friday before Monday. The seek and destroy pattern showed up on GBP/NZD every day since last week Friday. I'm not saying it actually happens everyday but it seems really consistent with certain market conditions. Friday April 11 : NY session swept the previous Asian session low and targeted the previous London high. Monday April 14 : NY session swept the previous Asian high and targeted the previous London low. Tuesday April 15 : NY session swept...
After all the intriguing philosophy, it’s no easy feat to create a tradable system that actually makes profit—and equally challenging to demonstrate its actions and statistics. You know, on Forex Factory, after spending decades here, there have been many systems and many theories used, but concrete statistical proof of a clearly defined system lasting at least 3 or 4 months (by my standard) is very rare or even non-existent. That doesn’t make it wrong to use, but it also doesn’t make it right as a successful system.
Good luck.

{quote} Brilliant advice, id just like to add to this the fact that - markets are always evolving, PA is always changing so your system and rules has to evolve along the way also there's no one size fits all. Something worth keeping in mind.
It’s not always easy to tell who has real experience as a (true) trader and who’s just starting out. My mentor and my master passed this initial simple test. Then, believe that every trader will definitely experience losses first—whether until the time they finally make a profit, I think it fluctuates over many periods of time.

Percentage Increase: Gold from 1985 ($400): ($3,327 - $400) / $400 × 100 = 731.8%. Real Estate from 1980: ($412,300 - $47,200) / $47,200 × 100 = 773.5%. Exact USD Value Loss (Purchasing Power) based on CPI: Cumulative Value Loss 1913–2025: CPI 1913 ~10, CPI 2025 ~320. $1 in 1913 = $1 × (10 / 320) = ~$0.031. Cumulative loss: 96.9%.. Critique: Official CPI may understate inflation (per ShadowStats, 1980-based CPI suggests ~95% loss since 1980), but BLS data is the standard. The point being assets are driven by USD value loss. Gold went from 100$ /OZ...
Note: Not good for investment, good for savings, good for speculation (in the right timing)
