Characteristics of Currency PairsHey Guys! Here are some characteristics of currency pairs that I noticed over the years. Perhaps it'll help you find the pairs that best fit your trading style, or perhaps you can use this information as an add-on to your current strategy. Gbp/Usd - Tends to overshoot key levels. - Can use to get better risk/reward. Both on entries and targets. - Can expect many fake breakouts; where key higher time frame levels may be broken on the lower time frames but fail to break out on the higher time frames. Eur/Usd- Tends to accurately respond to key levels. - Can be used for tight stop loss placements for there is no need to add a couple pips for wiggle room on this pair. - Especially on this pair, remember to enter/exit without being greedy or scared. Due to the response accuracy at key levels, price will not give you a second chance to enter a trade or take profits. Usd/Jpy-Tends to have huge moves without price confirmation.In other words, price gets forced up or down by a higher power for months at a time. - Can use to ultimately enter counter the initial direction of the forced move; expecting price to return to fair value. - Can use this characteristic to ride this forced move while not requiring price confirmation for your entry. Usd/Chf- Tends to have false break outs. - Especially on this pair, remember to watch the lower time frame's price action to make sure the break out is legitimate. Eur/Jpy, Aud/Jpy, Gbp/Jpy tend to form trade set ups simultaneously. - If you notice a strong move occuring on the eur/jpy, pay attention to the aud/jpy and gbp/jpy for possible trade opportunities and visa versa. That's it! I hope this helps! Ken

The Master Jedi Sniper CREED*The Market has different moves I call them 'Plays' that it sets in the Forex Market Daily. The Market only has 3 moves: 1. Up aka UP Trend 2. Down aka DOWN Trend 3. Sideways aka Consolidation No more. No less. The market has key patterns, rhythms, and channels known as 'Liquidity pools" "Order Blocks' and the like. These are simply areas in the market where liquidity is and wherever there is liquidity that is where the market flows to. After the Market makes enough money and "Orders" need to be filled it will then move to fill imbalances along the way to those places of Liquidity aka "THE MONEY". A Snipers MAIN job is to WACTH the market with discipline, consistency, and relentless attention to intricate details that your pair does at KEY times in the trading day. US base pairs are anchored by the DXY. It is a Snipers RSI. Every Sniper has their own threshold for pain this is knows as a SL. A Sniper's average SL is 3-5PIPS. Once that threshold is breached it is time to re evaluate the trade set up and either "Pull and SWITCH" or "Pull and WAIT". By allowing you trade aka SNIPE time to develop you allow your trade set up to develop. Remember it takes time for the Market to move in your direction. Therefore pull backs and consolidation are all apart of normal market movement aka Price Action. By identifying key areas in the market within "Structure" a Sniper formulates strategies to Trap and Snipe Price. I Am the Alchemist of these Formulas and Strategies. I AM: Trading Made Simple As always never over leverage. Trust your Trade Set Up. Have Fun!

Market Seasonality - Fundamentals 📉📉📉✅ Seasonality refers to particular time frames when stocks/sectors/indices are subjected to and influenced by recurring tendencies that produce patterns that are apparent in the investment valuation. ✅ Seasonality is a characteristic of a time series in which the data experiences regular and predictable changes that recur every calendar year. Any predictable fluctuation or pattern that recurs or repeats over a one-year period is said to be seasonal. ✅ What is a Seasonality Forecast? In time series data, seasonality refers to the presence of variations which occur at certain regular intervals either on a weekly basis, monthly basis, or even quarterly (but never up to a year). Various factors may cause seasonality - like a vacation, weather, and holidays ✅ You can use the Market Seasonality as an extra fundamental confluence for the price, we have 2 market seasonalities bullish and bearish. If a price has bullish seasonality it means the pariticular asset will tend to rise during that cycle and viceversa. Market Seasonality (MS) is a good tool to have in your arsenal but only if you are trading on a mid-long term perspective. You can't trade using the market seasonality on a scalping or a intra-day basis because it makes no sense. What do you think ? Comment below..

Fibonacci Premium vs Discount ✅ 📝 Fibonacci is a sequence that came up with a Smart mathematician name Leonard Fibonacci came with a sequence that proved that everything in the universe repeats itself in a specific mathematical. From the petals on a flower, to the spiral patterns on snail's shell, all fulfilled with a specific numerical sequence. The same Fibonacci sequence applies in everything and anywhere including Trading. When a retracement begins as buyers will come take their profits and leave, new buyers will come in at specifici levels using the Fibonacci retracement. 📉 I use the Fibonacci retracements for entries and for take profit zones i will show that in an example on how go about doing it. Please everything that i am going to show here be ensure that you practice until you have fully mastered price action 📉I use the fib placing from the lowest body of the candle to the highest body of the candle if we are in a bullish momentum(aiming to go long) - 📝 Remember its a Fibonacci retracement. What you should remember is what i said at the beginning of the Fib that when buys take their profits and leave, new buyers get it a retracement that's where you also get it.

Institutional Liquidity Orderflow 📉📉📉Hi guys! I would like to briefly explain my strategy, I use liquidity to understand where should market go . 🏦 Liquidity is basically a zone in the market where a lot of stops are located both retail/ institutional, I will look to enter near that area but only after the manipulation on the buy-side or sell-side liquidity to all my trades with "Smart Money". as known as "Wall Street" You can separate the Liquidity Concepts in two areas. ✅ Buy Side Liquidity - area of the price where sellers put their stop loss, its located on old highs, equal highs (Resistance) above double tops, above key psychological numbers ✅ Sell Side Liquidity - area of the price where buyers put their stop losses, usually below old lows, below equal lows(support), below psychological key levels. ‼️ REMEMBER Dumb Money sell at high Smart Money SELL ABOVE THE HIGH Dumb Money buy at low Smart Money BUY BELOW THE LOW Using this concept as i explained you will have less stop losses because you will allign your trades with institutional orderflow. I attached couple photos so you can have a better understanding.

Spinning Top's Candlestick Pattern ✅✅ A spinning top is a candlestick pattern that has a short real body that's vertically centered between long upper and lower shadows. The candlestick pattern represents indecision about the future direction of the asset. It means that neither buyers nor sellers could gain the upper hand. ✅ White spinning tops are candlestick lines that are small, green-bodied, and possess shadows (upper and lower) that end up exceeding the length of candle bodies. They often signal indecision between buyer and seller. To look for the spinning top among the red candles, you can use the Spinning Top Black candle pattern ✅ There are two variations of this chart pattern: the bullish spinning top (green in colour) and the bearish spinning top (red in colour). The bullish formation occurs when the closing price is higher than the opening price, while the bearish pattern occurs when the opening price is higher than the closing price. Do you use this candlestick pattern in your analysis ?

The yellow line is called the base line is what we refer to as the overall market sentiment. It shows the overall direction of the market. The overall market has a tendency to do two things. It can turn slowly, or it can continue to go in the initial direction. This is because it’s too big and it can’t turn too quickly. It’s got to come to a gradual end. The settings for the base line is 34. Last but not least, we have two blue lines, one above and one below. Those blue lines represent the volatility in the market, similar to the Bollinger Bands. They are increasing and decreasing volatility.

📉📉📉 Wedge Trading Pattern 📉 What Is a Wedge? A wedge is a price pattern marked by converging trend lines on a price chart. The two trend lines are drawn to connect the respective highs and lows of a price series over the course of 10 to 50 periods. The lines show that the highs and the lows are either rising or falling and differing rates, giving the appearance of a wedge as the lines approach a convergence. Wedge shaped trend lines are considered useful indicators of a potential reversal in price action by technical analysts. 📉 Understanding the Wedge Pattern A wedge pattern can signal either bullish or bearish price reversals. In either case, this pattern holds three common characteristics: first, the converging trend lines; second, a pattern of declining volume as the price progresses through the pattern; third, a breakout from one of the trend lines. The two forms of the wedge pattern are a rising wedge (which signals a bearish reversal) or a falling wedge (which signals a bullish reversal). 📉 Falling Wedge When a security's price has been falling over time, a wedge pattern can occur just as the trend makes its final downward move. The trend lines drawn above the highs and below the lows on the price chart pattern can converge as the price slide loses momentum and buyers step in to slow the rate of decline. Before the lines converge, price may breakout above the upper trend line. This usually occurs when a security’s price has been rising over time, but it can also occur in the midst of a downward trend as well. The trend lines drawn above and below the price chart pattern can converge to help a trader or analyst anticipate a breakout reversal. While price can be out of either trend line, wedge patterns have a tendency to break in the opposite direction from the trend lines. 📉 Rising Wedge This usually occurs when a security’s price has been rising over time, but it can also occur in the midst of a downward trend as well. The trend lines drawn above and below the price chart pattern can converge to help a trader or analyst anticipate a breakout reversal. While price can be out of either trend line, wedge patterns have a tendency to break in the opposite direction from the trend lines. Do you use this trading pattern ?

Volume Trading Indicator 📉📉📉✅ Volume is an important indicator in technical analysis because it is used to measure the relative significance of a market move. The higher the volume during a price move, the more significant the move and the lower the volume during a price move, the less significant the move. ✅ Volume indicators are technical tools to evaluate a security's bull and bear power. Most look specifically at buying vs. selling pressure to determine which side is in control of price action. Others attempt to identify emotions that are moving the security at a particular time ✅ A high positive multiplier with high volume indicates strong buying pressure which pushes the indicator higher. On the other hand, a low negative number with high volume indicates strong selling pressure which pushes the indicator lower. ✅ Down volume indicates bearish trading, while up volume indicates bullish trading. If the price of a security falls, but only on low volume, there may be other factors at work aside from a true bear turn Do you use this trading indicator ?

Inside Bar Candlestick Pattern📉📉📉We will cover the following today: Inside Bar (Inside Day) Inside Days ✅ Inside Days are a daily pattern involving two daily candles, we have a day of trade, also known as the ‘mother candle’ and then the following day trades the whole day within the range of the previous day. This is a two-day bias suggesting a potential reversal. A great way to play these sorts of biases is to pre-empt the failure of this reversal, as well as playing the success of the inside day, so what does this look like? Let’s take a look at an example below. ✅ What is an inside bar? The inside bar is a popular reversal/continuation candle formation that only requires two candles to present itself. This pattern is a direct play on short-term market sentiment looking to enter before the 'big moves' that may take place in the market. ✅ Is an inside bar bullish? First, unlike other candlestick patterns, inside bars are usually not distinguished as bullish and bearish by their look or color of the body itself, but rather by the location they are at and other peripheral developments ✅ An “inside bar” pattern is a two-bar price action trading strategy in which the inside bar is smaller and within the high to low range of the prior bar, i.e. the high is lower than the previous bar's high, and the low is higher than the previous bar's low. 📈 HOW TO IDENTIFY AN INSIDE BAR ON FOREX CHARTS The following steps are used when identifying the inside bar pattern on forex charts: Identify a preceding trend using price action/technical indicators Locate inside bar pattern whereby the inside bar is engulfed fully by the preceding candle high and low

Signal Providers vs Confluence Providers “If you give a man a fish, he will be hungry tomorrow. If you teach a man to fish, he will be richer forever.” Except for the actual execution of trade entries, forex signal services perform all of the functions of a robot. A "professional" trader may provide trading signals (for a price, of course) for customers to act on, in addition to maybe employing an automated program. You may, however, be paying for a signal for which you have no idea what the reasoning is or how the "expert" came up with it. You have no understanding what the transaction is based on; all you know is that the "expert" says it's a good time to buy or sell. Finally, you're depending on a third-party source's analysis rather than your own. In a normal forex signal service, the programmer builds a set of technical indicators and rules, which are then followed by the software. If the price action meets the signal service's criteria, the user will get an email or text message with a notification or alert to respond. The user must eventually determine whether or not to take the signal and trade it. While it may appear that you have greater control over whether or not to trade, the signal service is still programmed to follow a set of regulations. If such case was so profitable, why would anyone bother with forex signals in the first place? Instead, they should concentrate on trading with their signals and amassing a fortune for themselves. Now let’s look at evolved way to help traders. Let’s call this group confluence providers. Confluence providers also share the trade they’re taking on; however, unlike “Signal providers” they fully explain the reasoning behind the trade. This group is called confluence providers, because you can usually compare your own bias and analysis with the detailed description of theirs. The picture above can serve as a good comparison between these two categories. Feel, free to share your personal experiences. NOTE: Forex market is full of unethical people trying to steal your money, so use your common sense when something is too good to be true.
