Legend, Dont be so hard on your self. Its alot easier to learn in person.

Look a a single time frame. Just to keep it simple. See how I draw a zline. Price breaks a zline , im in. take what I can.

Not trying to mix things up im just curious.

So the only difference between this way and the way mo and espip did it was they tried to get wicked into the trade with the better price

Or... am I thinking to much into it?

Not at all legend,

there is no difference...its a matter of perspective...
a line and a wick hitting the line to enter...is the way they explain...
through out my thread.... a line and price below the ema....i get in...
if yo bump up one time frame or 2 on my trades...it is a wick...getting in..on a higher time frame line.

its the same thing...

the reason i explained it using the ema is, when someone sees get in on a wick...they start taking all wicks...which is crazy...they seem to forget about the line or other bias criteria...

go back and look at Mos, and espip entries.... from a perspective of different time frames...this will help you see what is really going on... if you see wicks...great...if you see ema crosses...great..
you may even see something different per how your mind processes things. Does that make it wrong if it works for you?

Look at these ways, price action is price action...

Yes, nice pic.

We have a zline zone short.... a zline zone long taking us back up in to the zline zone short. Fails to break the short zone, then the red candle breaks the long zone...enter short!

perfect pic for an example.
