Hi LG
I didnt consider that 15min MoMo as valid because of the last 1hour candle to left of it was MoMo and way it wicked off that 1hr zline as well.

There are two forces acting upon us: Suffering pushes us forward from behind and pleasures entice us and pull us forward.
Hi Pro,
nice trade. I see how you built it up.
couple questions:
XT? Extreme ie low of 4hr momo yea?
when your scanning for entry do you just look at hourly first and then when you get 1hr MoMo there you start scanning on 15min?
or
You scanning every 15mins?
Thanks

H4 Momo 50% not quite hit but there is huge wick in direction of loss signally short for me.
H1 Momo Follows
15m Momo gets wicked away from H1 Momo zline for entry.
Exit after 15m Momo.
This is what I like to see.
H4
H1
15m

Yes XT is just short hand for Extreme.
Always H1 first. I want to see H1 momo or H1 same size candles then I'll drop to 15m.
I've been burnt too many times in the past just taking 15m Momos in the H4 zone without considering H1 so now I always wait for H1 to confirm H4 direction before looking to enter.
When trading this way you have to wait a bit longer and there are fewer trades each week but in my opinion they are safer and worth the wait.

Hi BB
Personally i would not consider that H1 up as MOMO when compared to the large H1 down MOMO previously.
Also look at the rejection shown around the 50% area of that large down MOMO, but i suppose hindsight is a wonderful thing
Together we learn
You could be right LG, im no expert im just trying to work it all my self .

BB, you know right? Losses are always so annoying
The method you've been presenting seems sound --- stick with it bud
