Nice trading Doji :)

I was looking at your EurUsd trade, i noticed there was nothing to obvious how you entered on 15min chart, just a 15min MoMo to downside.

So dropped down to 5min and saw possible setup it follows the rules, but i dont know if you would even considering taking a setup like that on 5min :?: .

Anything that will give you an edge, a few rules, and you will be successful.
No body knows what will happen next.
I have finally learned it can be "this easy"
Once you find your edge, commit to making it your own.
Repeat your defined edge over and over again.

Thank you to everyone who was successful that gave me a few minutes of there time.

:D

MO,

You know after all these years of reading everything, it really boils that to this. It took for someone to point it out to me, thanks Doji. Im kind of bit like :roll: at moment.

I can see how i limited my view of momentum thinking it was constrained by time ie candle formation and of course that is rubbish. Price will keep going until it hits demand/supply level.

Question i m left with was my time wasted in read things, struggling with concepts, picking through peoples confusion which made me confused?
I can't answer that at moment. Theres part of me says you have gained some degree of knowledge, then there is another says at what cost.

If i was new person here i say study the picture and words below because everything is contained, very simply, in what MO says and showed in his picture.

Thanks MO,Doji

You have supply, demand, & middle.

In a rising market, either the high or the middle becomes the new low.

Watch the candles to see if they become consecutively smaller/larger when they draw near to a level.

True momo candles, momo by comparison..., will usually point out S/D.
