Please be careful. It is a very dangerous beast. I do call it The Monster for a reason.

haha. Yea I figured it had to be, if you called it the Monster.

You will never see price move so fast. Then go even faster in the opposite direction.

Never, ever, try and chase a late entry. It gets very, very, bitey, lol.

Ah, hell, you'll see!

Haha, now I cant wait.

It's been great this arvo. Almost...civilised. Drop out of a Supply Zone and pulled all the way back to the pivot (against the DWZ bias but we'll gloss over that ).

Major downwards pressure today almost made me sit on my hands for The Flip...almost, lol.

Price had reached a handful of lower time-frame layered Demand Zones, so as price was slowing slightly, I figured I'd give it a go, ready to bail real quick if it went t**s up.

As it turned out, I got enough of a creep upwards against the flow to keep me happy. Not the full whack but close enough.

500-Flip (18:00 Flips 17:00) Long into the body.

(As usual file is too big once I put one little arrow on it and I can't be ar**d faffing around with it tonight, so to be clear, the trade is long on the last candle from the open of same).

Did the right thing, as that pressure has kicked in once more and the move has continued its downward march.

Love the 500 flip trade set up. Got any other little patterns like this?

The two main other ones along these lines that I use are on my Differentials acc and I don't post about the Diffs, as they are a very specialised market that very, very, few have access to and even fewer know what the heck they are!

It's not so much patterns as specific time-slots that give you a certain kind of price movement. The methods of trading those time slots are my usual variations on the TRO theme.

My day is broken down into blocks:

(Pre UK Open - EURGBP Frankenbreak - don't get to run this much if at all anymore as I run my DAX at the same time-slot).
DAX-Monster - at UK Open. 2-Hr block run WZ tech. My main method. Very dangerous but so much bang-for-your-buck.

Dead Zone - lead in to US Open. 1 Hr candle WZ tech.

500-Flip.

Witching Hour v1 + v2 - A Dead Zone run over the 23:00 and Midnight UK-Time run by (guess what) WZ tech.

Over-and-above this and depending on mood, inclination and level of boredom, I will run HOLO, TooSLow 1-2-3 and simply scalp the m5 / m1 on The DAX.

Everything is overlaid by the pair in use's Daily Wick Zone and Supply + Demand Zones.

There is also the UK GBP-''Fix'' candle at the lead-in to the end of the UK day but I have dropped that. I wasn't finding the performance I wanted. The Flip is much better.

Hey Hey, charts have feeling to you know - Need I remind you this is a G rated thread - behave yourself . Good stuff buddy.

As if I didn't follow you around enough like a lost puppy dog. But with all this crazy movement on the S&P and you talking about the DAX, it has def peeked my interest.

The Dollar Index can also be fun and I am playing with the JP225 more and more these days too.

I didn't get my usual DAX trade this morning, as I faced a gap up at my trigger, however there's been enough movement - initially as a long DWZ entry and then as a short reaction - to give plenty of solid scalping opportunities.

I only have access to the Monster as a CFD. Is that why are charts are different or what did I do wrong.

Does you broker close its DAX desk overnight? There will be a difference in the number of candles at that time.
