this is the zone on the 15 min time frame today on gbp/usd.

I post this to show that I would have gone taken a short if the candle under the pink arrow would have closed in the zone. Instead it closed above the zone and with momentum. See how the momentum of the bullish candle broke the top of the zone which was the bearish 15 min momentum line?

Hence the long.... then its a matter of holding as long as there is no bearish momentum that breaks the bottom of the zone with momentum.

this worked out on 1st trigger for long. My point is had the one 5 min candle closed in the zone instead of above it with momentum I would have gone short no questions asked. 3 candles later another bullish momentum that dominates above the zone...then I would instantly reverse.

The reversals account for over 20 percent of my success rate.
I will post an actual fail and reversal when I actually get one.

The way I see it. A is your bullish momo, then bear momo breaks it. Wouldn't you be looking for a sell since bearish momo is current. Then the next bar with your up arrow would have been your wick in.

Mo up, Mo down, then its the following bars that trigger depending on there relation to the mo up and mo down that form the zone.
The bullish mo and bearish mo are not a trigger... just the momentum zone.

very interesting thread here

I just quickly marked up one of Miras charts - the yellow lines show price has not finished going up. (the opposite of miras white lines - AND just as important)

very interesting and some markups look to be required

Thank you for your markup!
In this pic what is telling you (about yellow lines) that price has not finished going up?

Thank you much.

Ahhhh is this the meaning of the Wickdoll?
A bar wicking the zone on the same timeframe..
It looks like it could be an entry at a worst price but it's safer than an entry on a lower chart period.

(Hoping I'm not saying weird things :lol: )

Thank you much for your explanations!

Ps. Captain, we have the same timezone. Are you Italian?
