PowerX Strategy "PowerZ"

[IgazI]

I'm not sure what a post of just a picture is supposed to mean, Pro.

I assume that you are trying to say:
1) none of the top wicks stopped price from going up.
2) the close lowers is what brought the price down.

Look at how much cleaner this is:
- we turned 52 candlesticks into just 14 groups of closing prices.
- we reduced OHLC to just the C
- complexity was turned into simplicity.
- with less to consider, you are more sure about what to do.

Looks like one of my pics from 8 years ago.

I was pointing to the spike above and a close down.
While price was at a level deemed to be of interest.

See those in the middle?
Yeeeeet!!!
Got F'd.

Pic too big, to many "colors".One sec, I have a phone. LOL

It's a 5-minute chart. . .
if you "got F'd" then you need to trade smaller.

You enter the same way that you exit;
1) price above ranges
2) trail buy limit orders
1) price below ranges
2) trail sell limit orders

Instead of wicks, just use the closing prices of a smaller chart; like a 1 or 2 minute:

you only ever need more closes or fewer closes.

When it comes time to place a trade, we are just trading price levels; so where are your 'better' entries coming from? what do you think you've gained from candlesticks?

It's not the size, it's entering more too quickly.

I'm thinking about just using dots for my two lower chart periods. . .

aiming to trade out of the H1 price ranges:

H1 and M15 are a great combination. . .
this has got to be the most commonly used chart periods, and maybe that's for a reason.

We have 'complexity' with the dots and 'clarity' with the vertical lines;
an idea expressed in the UK spread betting videos.

I hurts my soul to use an M1, after mocking the chart period for so long, but I'm not a close-minded person

You don't want to use M1, its only a bunch of noise.

It has all the same properties as any timeframe. The moves are proportional to the timeframe.
