Thread: market structure is everything

  1. #1
    Market is always right. We are not, since we couldn't read it correctly.
    This journal is all about undestanding the market moves in real time and taking advantage of them.

    Recently I had been inspired by this thread: https://www.forexforum.co.za/general...rs-thread.html
    I won't be trading exactly his egy, but will be utilizing some of his principles to filter setups.

    Studying the market arrangement correctly requires expertise.
    To gain expertise, we need to watch the market moves enough with focus.

    -------------------------------
    Market goes up to return and goes to go back up.
    But that's not so important as HOW goes it up to return and HOW goes down it to go up.
    Its defined by market construction.
    -------------------------------
    All moves are exceptional, but we have to set a standard and stick to it until it will become evident at each market move

    Standard: There are only 3 kinds of movements
    1. Slow
    2. Medium
    3. Fast

    We are going to trade largely Slow and Fast, because we are going to pick tops and bottoms.
    Lets repeat again, Slow and Quick moves indie market reversal. Not always, but enough times.
    ------------------------------
    Slow moves are described as price compression/condension/squeeze depending on how long and how tight this pattern was created, it could create explosive moves.
    Quick moves are described as price fatigue. Its overextended parabolic movement that contains few stages (mainly 3), where price speeds up normally twice each stage and ends up using large bold one sided movement with no retrace/correction.
    ------------------------------


    pattern check list (for more details check his thread link over ):
    --------------------------------
    bottom rotation pattern:
    --------------------------------
    1. Does it have condensed supply (many drops in structure)
    2. Does it make new LL using clearout and then break that provide in only leg
    3. Is that leg up, the most powerful push in the whole arrangement
    4. Is structure created after downtrend

    ---------------------
    Parabolic crash:
    ---------------------
    1. A leg has 3 phases where each stage of movement has clearly stronger candles than the stage prior to it
    2. A leg has in the moment published one important end tail candle
    3. A bounce has started where after that singificant candle has been published price turned in oposite direction in
    rapid movement

    --------------------
    Flag (with trend):
    --------------------
    1. Extended structure with more than 2 highs/lows and condensed supply
    2. clearout of lows
    3. Takeout provide on strong flip within single leg move
    4. Strong HL formation
