hi Pawel - I never say never - but 90% of my trades are worked out well before hand - and a limit order used

I see.
From my point of view it's impossible because situation is changing constantly. It's good to know that in fact it is possible. Now about 20% of my trading are limit orders. I'd prefer to use limits more so I need to work on it I guess.
Thank You for the answer Captain!

Pug,
trust me im not changing anything, i have my core principles sealed in my mental environment. Im currently gaining exprience applying these principles in all market conditions and identify area of weakness with in my own ability to implement them.
My control is no changes on a whim, if im going to make a change:-
1). I must have clear and obvious edivence that there is a statistical advantage.
2). That it easily meshes with existing principles, ie doesnt require a tweak/change to them to make the new one work.
3). There will be a period of paper trading along side my live trading.
If it then gets through all that and proves it self to be worth the change, then and only then will i make that change.
What i have works im very protective of that now.
When i sit down at screen in morning and going through my routine,
Weekly & daily for key levels = 2mins
4hr and 1hr for direction and momentum= 5min +/- 2min
15min for entry (if its unclear for me on 15min im checking 5min and 30min)
when im looking at 4hr,1hr,30,15,5 im not just looking at individual candles but also group/combine them. Doji help me realise the price doesnt care about time, this one took me awhile to accept.

All I might suggest is - try not to box yourself in, by saying to yourself - "I trade m5/15/60" etc etc - try to be fluid - look at everything from the top down.
EDIT - also I thought about this last night - if your entry method works for you - dont change it for anybody but yourself.
I posted an AU trade yesterday after your prevoius chart - you may have missed it?

Pawel - the footprint the banks leave when they move price usually remains in the same place - until the order stack is depleted and the other team take control.
Thanks Humble

Yes. I noticed that while i was trading futures. Huge orders stacks are getting consumed slowly on every bounce. I just never found a logic behind where they are placed (sometimes they even quickly pull them out and switch sides) so its hard to transfer that logic to trade SPOT. So sometimes i just get it and sometimes im taking price up the ass trading with limits
I only noticed one pattern that seems to be doing well so far. It's almost always pip perfect so it looks kinda like those orders on Your A/U screenshot. Still testing it. Live, fck backtesting.
You Captain are a mysterious figure with Your 60 posts
But definitely You know Your s**t
Seriously though thanks for the comments
