3 | ICT: Okay, folks, long time no see, I'll share some things regarding the euro | ||
4 | dollar. Last week, we had the non farm payroll. And, you know, typically that | ||
5 | |||
6 | 2 | ||
7 | 00:00:50,340 ~-~-> 00:01:02,010 | ||
8 | that's a day that I like to refrain from engaging in. But I'm gonna give you | ||
9 | some things that added to the uncertainty about that particular day being last | ||
10 | |||
11 | 3 | ||
12 | 00:01:02,010 ~-~-> 00:01:13,200 | ||
13 | Friday, or February 1, to be specific, I want you to take a look at this section | ||
14 | of price action. And obviously, it's an intraday segment of price action. But | ||
15 | |||
16 | 4 | ||
17 | 00:01:13,200 ~-~-> 00:01:28,260 | ||
18 | nonetheless, it's going to communicate something I believe is helpful to those | ||
19 | that have ever entered a trade that failed to move in their in their favor, or | ||
20 | |||
21 | 5 | ||
22 | 00:01:29,310 ~-~-> 00:01:40,200 | ||
23 | fail to move out of a specific range. This is what is referred to as trapped | ||
24 | order flow. So we take a look at it in greater detail, but I want you to take a | ||
25 | |||
26 | 6 | ||
27 | 00:01:40,200 ~-~-> 00:01:53,880 | ||
28 | look at what's shown here. And try to determine what makes this segment of price | ||
29 | action difficult to move higher or lower, at least for the scope of last Friday, | ||
30 | |||
31 | 7 | ||
32 | 00:01:54,480 ~-~-> 00:02:06,840 | ||
33 | understanding what may lead to dynamic price action, one of the things you want | ||
34 | to be able to identify is when the market is less likely to move, you understand | ||
35 | |||
36 | 8 | ||
37 | 00:02:06,840 ~-~-> 00:02:19,170 | ||
38 | from my concepts that we teach how to determine where the market is being drawn | ||
39 | to. So that's to draw on liquidity. If you arrive at that, and you're correct, | ||
40 | |||
41 | 9 | ||
42 | 00:02:19,290 ~-~-> 00:02:28,050 | ||
43 | you'll find that you have very little resistance in terms of finding | ||
44 | profitability in your setup. But when we have things in price action that lead | ||
45 | |||
46 | 10 | ||
47 | 00:02:28,050 ~-~-> 00:02:41,970 | ||
48 | to adversities or what we refer to as high resistance liquidity runs a low | ||
49 | resistance liquidity run is something that would be seen as a very low resistant | ||
50 | |||
51 | 11 | ||
52 | 00:02:42,060 ~-~-> 00:02:55,020 | ||
53 | high energy price mood that runs an old high or runs an old low, very easy, | ||
54 | smooth price action. A high resistance liquidity run would be one that will be | ||
55 | |||
56 | 12 | ||
57 | 00:02:55,020 ~-~-> 00:03:06,780 | ||
58 | seen with a great deal of adversity. In other words, from a classical technical | ||
59 | analysis analogy, a lot of resistance in a bullish condition and a lot of | ||
60 | |||
61 | 13 | ||
62 | 00:03:07,140 ~-~-> 00:03:23,310 | ||
63 | support in a bearish condition. What frames this trapped order flow in here on | ||
64 | Friday is directly related to two price points. This one here. And this one | ||
65 | |||
66 | 14 | ||
67 | 00:03:23,310 ~-~-> 00:03:38,610 | ||
68 | here. Both of these two reference points here have smaller fractal patterns | ||
69 | within those larger patterns that also present additional features that would | ||
70 | |||
71 | 15 | ||
72 | 00:03:38,610 ~-~-> 00:03:49,140 | ||
73 | act as a trapping mechanism in the sense that it's very difficult it was | ||
74 | difficult rather for price to move out of that range on Friday. So I'm gonna add | ||
75 | |||
76 | 16 | ||
77 | 00:03:49,140 ~-~-> 00:04:03,960 | ||
78 | a little bit detail here and I'll give you some more insights as we as we go. | ||
79 | Okay, so we have this price when here is the larger bullish ICT breaker. Now | ||
80 | |||
81 | 17 | ||
82 | 00:04:03,960 ~-~-> 00:04:14,850 | ||
83 | without being all tied up with the lingo all we're gonna do is refer to this low | ||
84 | here we residing below that sell side liquidity could be in the form of sell | ||
85 | |||
86 | 18 | ||
87 | 00:04:14,850 ~-~-> 00:04:29,520 | ||
88 | stops to go short or sell stops on assumed long positions. price drops down | ||
89 | clears these stops out right here. Then price rallies away. Once this high is | ||
90 | |||
91 | 19 | ||
92 | 00:04:29,520 ~-~-> 00:04:40,890 | ||
93 | taken out. The price trades back down to that last close candle. This is a | ||
94 | buying opportunity. Generally if the market conditions is bullish, offered | ||
95 | |||
96 | 20 | ||
97 | 00:04:40,890 ~-~-> 00:04:54,300 | ||
98 | support and here when a little bit lower into this ICT bullish breaker. Again a | ||
99 | low high in between a lower low sell high liquidity ran out here. So inside this | ||
100 | |||
101 | 21 | ||
102 | 00:04:54,300 ~-~-> 00:05:08,160 | ||
103 | larger breaker there's a smaller breaker same pattern. Just on a smaller scale, | ||
104 | once price runs through that, it makes a high comes back, makes the short term | ||
105 | |||
106 | 22 | ||
107 | 00:05:08,160 ~-~-> 00:05:20,310 | ||
108 | low rallies through this old high, then trades back down below this low that | ||
109 | makes this a bearish ICT breaker. So now price trades up into there on Friday | ||
110 | |||
111 | 23 | ||
112 | 00:05:20,310 ~-~-> 00:05:35,550 | ||
113 | and has difficulty getting through it. We traded back down into this old high. | ||
114 | Just like we saw Reese response off of this one here, we saw this rally | ||
115 | |||
116 | 24 | ||
117 | 00:05:37,560 ~-~-> 00:05:50,130 | ||
118 | off of offer this high, this low to this high down to this low is a bullish | ||
119 | breaker as well, because we have liquidity below this low here, price trades | ||
120 | |||
121 | 25 | ||
122 | 00:05:50,130 ~-~-> 00:06:01,920 | ||
123 | down to it and then runs through the highest up close candle. That's your | ||
124 | breaker. Price hits it here. So we're seeing a back and forth tug of war for | ||
125 | |||
126 | 26 | ||
127 | 00:06:01,920 ~-~-> 00:06:13,410 | ||
128 | order flow back and forth in between those two price points. Now, if we add that | ||
129 | to the economic calendar, which obviously last Friday was non farm payroll, if | ||
130 | |||
131 | 27 | ||
132 | 00:06:13,410 ~-~-> 00:06:24,030 | ||
133 | we look at a five minute chart, here's the price action on non farm payroll | ||
134 | Friday price, meandering around until non farm payroll release, the release | ||
135 | |||
136 | 28 | ||
137 | 00:06:24,030 ~-~-> 00:06:38,070 | ||
138 | comes out it drops down aggressively, then rallies back through, drops back down | ||
139 | inside the original consolidation then sells off again, but hits a bullish | ||
140 | |||
141 | 29 | ||
142 | 00:06:38,070 ~-~-> 00:06:53,400 | ||
143 | breaker. So we have the market wanting to find a direction. But it can't find | ||
144 | its way out of a defined range. When you see this coupled with the economic | ||
145 | |||
146 | 30 | ||
147 | 00:06:53,400 ~-~-> 00:07:06,210 | ||
148 | calendar for things like FOMC related events, a high impact speakers, or non | ||
149 | farm payroll, this is what you could reasonably expect to see. If we have the | ||
150 | |||
151 | 31 | ||
152 | 00:07:06,210 ~-~-> 00:07:18,060 | ||
153 | price action, back to a 15 minute timeframe, you can see the difficulty with | ||
154 | price finding a direction in here. It can be very problematic for someone that | ||
155 | |||
156 | 32 | ||
157 | 00:07:18,060 ~-~-> 00:07:28,230 | ||
158 | wants to follow, for instance, the optimal trade entry long one could be a buyer | ||
159 | here. And yes, it made a higher high. But if you don't take partial profits, | ||
160 | |||
161 | 33 | ||
162 | 00:07:28,260 ~-~-> 00:07:42,540 | ||
163 | you're not going to see a profit market finds its way all the way back down into | ||
164 | the original point of the buy. If you're trying to be a seller up here, and | ||
165 | |||
166 | 34 | ||
167 | 00:07:42,540 ~-~-> 00:07:52,800 | ||
168 | looking to go short thinking that this is going to be the downside catalyst on | ||
169 | the initial run. Yes, it makes a lower low than this here. But if you don't take | ||
170 | |||
171 | 35 | ||
172 | 00:07:52,800 ~-~-> 00:08:01,680 | ||
173 | partials, you get stopped out. So it can be very frustrating back and forth when | ||
174 | you're inside of a Seek and Destroy type of event. And that's what this whole | ||
175 | |||
176 | 36 | ||
177 | 00:08:01,680 ~-~-> 00:08:13,800 | ||
178 | price pattern is here. Every high and low gets taken out subsequently. So you're | ||
179 | probably looking at the entry on this particular chart thinking, well, if that's | ||
180 | |||
181 | 37 | ||
182 | 00:08:13,800 ~-~-> 00:08:25,080 | ||
183 | the case, it was so hard. Why are you showing a short position? Obviously, I was | ||
184 | on the assumption that I would see something in here, that would help me frame | ||
185 | |||
186 | 38 | ||
187 | 00:08:25,080 ~-~-> 00:08:45,750 | ||
188 | an entry. Let's go back down into a five minute chart inside of this run up. | ||
189 | Okay, inside this up close candle, we like to look at the midpoint of that. If | ||
190 | |||
191 | 39 | ||
192 | 00:08:45,750 ~-~-> 00:08:58,050 | ||
193 | we breach it, like we do here, this candle runs a higher high, and then we start | ||
194 | to see it break down. We traded down below the midpoint of this up close candle | ||
195 | |||
196 | 40 | ||
197 | 00:08:58,560 ~-~-> 00:09:09,630 | ||
198 | when it started to drop down. I don't like to see that if we take a higher high. | ||
199 | So this to me sets up a scenario where we could be a seller. You can go short on | ||
200 | |||
201 | 41 | ||
202 | 00:09:09,630 ~-~-> 00:09:28,770 | ||
203 | that. If you look at the time of entry 1634 this candle right here 1635 that's | ||
204 | the candle I did it in this little movement back up above the midpoint of this | ||
205 | |||
206 | 42 | ||
207 | 00:09:28,830 ~-~-> 00:09:43,590 | ||
208 | up close candle I was trying to get in as close as I possibly can to this mean | ||
209 | threshold. My expectation is is that we ran stocks above this high and even if | ||
210 | |||
211 | 43 | ||
212 | 00:09:43,590 ~-~-> 00:09:53,790 | ||
213 | this stays in the Define range that it is here. If I can get below this low | ||
214 | here, I can take first profit and move my stop to a lower level. And I don't | ||
215 | |||
216 | 44 | ||
217 | 00:09:53,790 ~-~-> 00:10:03,780 | ||
218 | care at that point getting stopped out. But if I'm right about this being in it | ||
219 | Important high and we've done all the dirty work on the upside, and we grow | ||
220 | |||
221 | 45 | ||
222 | 00:10:03,780 ~-~-> 00:10:19,590 | ||
223 | lower. If I have a full 100 pips, in terms of a drop, it may not do this until | ||
224 | later in the week, if at all, it doesn't have to do it, I could be wrong. But | ||
225 | |||
226 | 46 | ||
227 | 00:10:19,590 ~-~-> 00:10:33,780 | ||
228 | I'm looking at the premise that we had difficulty on Friday, just like we saw on | ||
229 | the British pound, British Pound had that same scenario on Thursday. So you can | ||
230 | |||
231 | 47 | ||
232 | 00:10:33,780 ~-~-> 00:10:36,480 | ||
233 | destroy higher, low higher, low, higher, low, higher low. | ||
234 | |||
235 | 48 | ||
236 | 00:10:38,040 ~-~-> 00:10:46,560 | ||
237 | It's very frustrating when you're caught in this type of environment, because | ||
238 | you can be buying, it runs up a little bit and then comes back stops you out. | ||
239 | |||
240 | 49 | ||
241 | 00:10:46,560 ~-~-> 00:10:53,280 | ||
242 | And you think, Okay, well, I'm gonna sell short that now. And then you put a | ||
243 | short in, it runs up and takes a short term, how do you put your stop above, | ||
244 | |||
245 | 50 | ||
246 | 00:10:53,520 ~-~-> 00:11:01,710 | ||
247 | back and forth, it's very, very frustrating. The sooner you find that you're in | ||
248 | that situation, the better off you are, and you want to move to the sidelines. | ||
249 | |||
250 | 51 | ||
251 | 00:11:01,740 ~-~-> 00:11:16,500 | ||
252 | Or if you do see a run on the extended range. Like up here, I was entering, not | ||
253 | above the old high because I just didn't see it at a time. But ideally, you want | ||
254 | |||
255 | 52 | ||
256 | 00:11:16,500 ~-~-> 00:11:27,720 | ||
257 | to be a seller above old highs and fire below old lows, if you see the scenario, | ||
258 | or the out of the marketplace, because the closer you get to the middle with an | ||
259 | |||
260 | 53 | ||
261 | 00:11:27,720 ~-~-> 00:11:36,960 | ||
262 | entry, which is generally going to be with your like an optimal trade entry, | ||
263 | it's going to be painful, it's gonna be painful, you're going to be stopped out, | ||
264 | |||
265 | 54 | ||
266 | 00:11:36,990 ~-~-> 00:11:44,460 | ||
267 | it's not going to move in your direction. And it's going to be frayed for | ||
268 | frustrating. So to me, my thought process was that we cleared this high with | ||
269 | |||
270 | 55 | ||
271 | 00:11:44,460 ~-~-> 00:11:53,970 | ||
272 | this run. And I wanted to get in as close as I could to the midpoint of the up | ||
273 | close candle. Because even if I do get stopped out faster, it moves down a | ||
274 | |||
275 | 56 | ||
276 | 00:11:53,970 ~-~-> 00:12:01,980 | ||
277 | little bit, the likelihood of it come back to that midpoint is unlikely to occur | ||
278 | because we've cleared a high. So in other words, they've done some work up here, | ||
279 | |||
280 | 57 | ||
281 | 00:12:01,980 ~-~-> 00:12:15,600 | ||
282 | we cleared some stops. And now the market should seek, again, should is not a | ||
283 | definitive statement. It's not a an absolute definition of what to expect, okay, | ||
284 | |||
285 | 58 | ||
286 | 00:12:15,600 ~-~-> 00:12:25,650 | ||
287 | it's not going to be perfect. And you're not going to know that I don't always | ||
288 | know that I have very high probability and statistical edges that helped me get | ||
289 | |||
290 | 59 | ||
291 | 00:12:25,650 ~-~-> 00:12:32,040 | ||
292 | to these assumptions. But that's what's really, really all they are at the | ||
293 | beginning their assumptions. And until you see me go on Twitter and prove it | ||
294 | |||
295 | 60 | ||
296 | 00:12:32,040 ~-~-> 00:12:41,790 | ||
297 | after the fact. Then and only then was I right? But I'm not right yet. Even | ||
298 | though that the trade has paper profit. I'm not right about the trade, because | ||
299 | |||
300 | 61 | ||
301 | 00:12:41,790 ~-~-> 00:12:52,440 | ||
302 | it's still open. I didn't collapse anything that didn't take any portion of it | ||
303 | as a profit. So I want to see it trade below this low. Why because we've been in | ||
304 | |||
305 | 62 | ||
306 | 00:12:52,440 ~-~-> 00:13:02,310 | ||
307 | this trap overflow. And once we got to a higher high, I want to be at that high | ||
308 | or very close to it. And because it's the means threshold, that's the reason why | ||
309 | |||
310 | 63 | ||
311 | 00:13:02,310 ~-~-> 00:13:13,200 | ||
312 | I was entering at that price point. Now I'm not trying to be nailing the | ||
313 | absolute high, I want to be as close as I can to that high. It can happen after | ||
314 | |||
315 | 64 | ||
316 | 00:13:13,200 ~-~-> 00:13:25,770 | ||
317 | me. Nor it doesn't have to, doesn't have to be expected before I get in, because | ||
318 | the understanding is that we've already tried to run higher than this high with | ||
319 | |||
320 | 65 | ||
321 | 00:13:25,770 ~-~-> 00:13:35,700 | ||
322 | this high, we ran higher than this high with this high remained higher than this | ||
323 | high with this one. So I'm up here. So if I get stopped out, that gives me a lot | ||
324 | |||
325 | 66 | ||
326 | 00:13:35,700 ~-~-> 00:13:44,910 | ||
327 | of insight as to what I believe may happen with the euro dollar. Because if we | ||
328 | come back up and knock this position out, then I think ultimately euro dollar is | ||
329 | |||
330 | 67 | ||
331 | 00:13:44,910 ~-~-> 00:13:53,670 | ||
332 | going to go higher. Now, if it continuously goes lower, I know what I'm looking | ||
333 | to do, I would like to take a portion off below this low. If it runs through | ||
334 | |||
335 | 68 | ||
336 | 00:13:53,670 ~-~-> 00:14:05,640 | ||
337 | that, I would like to take a portion off below that. move my stop to a point of | ||
338 | reasonable open this paper profit and then hopefully see if I can get 100 PIP | ||
339 | |||
340 | 69 | ||
341 | 00:14:05,640 ~-~-> 00:14:14,790 | ||
342 | move out of it. And that's it. If I'm right in my assumptions about what has | ||
343 | transpired in here, | ||
344 | |||
345 | 70 | ||
346 | 00:14:16,320 ~-~-> 00:14:25,590 | ||
347 | I'm feeling this as they had high, anyone short, they were knocked down. Anyone | ||
348 | that sold short here, they were knocked out as well. And it broke down | ||
349 | |||
350 | 71 | ||
351 | 00:14:25,620 ~-~-> 00:14:34,710 | ||
352 | aggressively. And then anyone that was selling short up here was not, again not | ||
353 | allowed to be a participant in this move that's coming. So therefore, they not | ||
354 | |||
355 | 72 | ||
356 | 00:14:34,710 ~-~-> 00:14:45,540 | ||
357 | visit individuals out. So I want to hold on to this position. It admittedly, if | ||
358 | I were to tell you how I feel internally at the time of the entry, and also | ||
359 | |||
360 | 73 | ||
361 | 00:14:45,570 ~-~-> 00:14:58,440 | ||
362 | currently right now talking to you. I don't feel comfortable about the trade. | ||
363 | Now in my past history. Every time I've had a trade that felt uncomfortable the | ||
364 | |||
365 | 74 | ||
366 | 00:14:58,440 ~-~-> 00:15:08,160 | ||
367 | whole if I didn't like the way it felt, while I was in it, they generally are | ||
368 | the ones that pan out because they're the ones that either exit too early. And I | ||
369 | |||
370 | 75 | ||
371 | 00:15:08,160 ~-~-> 00:15:15,870 | ||
372 | take too much off at my first and second third profit scaling. And I wish back | ||
373 | in hindsight that I wish I would have held on to it longer with a larger | ||
374 | |||
375 | 76 | ||
376 | 00:15:15,870 ~-~-> 00:15:26,160 | ||
377 | portion. Because of the feelings I have about that idea. We are still in a | ||
378 | range, it has yet to break below this low. So we're still inside of a dealing | ||
379 | |||
380 | 77 | ||
381 | 00:15:26,160 ~-~-> 00:15:35,370 | ||
382 | range. What's the range now to this high in this low, we're on the low end of | ||
383 | it. Now, we could have just very easily traded below this low here, and it | ||
384 | |||
385 | 78 | ||
386 | 00:15:35,370 ~-~-> 00:15:44,130 | ||
387 | starts to tear off and goes higher and stops me out. And that's trading. That's | ||
388 | the way it works. Sometimes you just you're just wrong. I have a rule based idea | ||
389 | |||
390 | 79 | ||
391 | 00:15:44,130 ~-~-> 00:15:55,890 | ||
392 | that I'd like to be able to take something off below this low here. Now I could | ||
393 | take off something right now. And essentially, I would have 20 pips or so. But I | ||
394 | |||
395 | 80 | ||
396 | 00:15:55,890 ~-~-> 00:16:07,800 | ||
397 | only have two and a half standard watts on in terms of leverage, one over 100 | ||
398 | and some $1,000 demo account. So I don't have a lot to be concerned about you if | ||
399 | |||
400 | 81 | ||
401 | 00:16:07,800 ~-~-> 00:16:18,930 | ||
402 | it stopped me out. And I don't have a lot to make as an illustration for this | ||
403 | idea. But admittedly because of the technicals that are here. And because we | ||
404 | |||
405 | 82 | ||
406 | 00:16:18,930 ~-~-> 00:16:29,580 | ||
407 | just moved out of just the high end of the range that the final Friday's non | ||
408 | farm payroll price action, until we break out below this low, then I'd feel | ||
409 | |||
410 | 83 | ||
411 | 00:16:29,580 ~-~-> 00:16:36,840 | ||
412 | better about the likelihood that reaching below here. But right now it's still | ||
413 | hammering around, they could come all the way back up to the top, near the top | ||
414 | |||
415 | 84 | ||
416 | 00:16:36,840 ~-~-> 00:16:49,110 | ||
417 | of this range. And everything I have an open profit for this setup would be | ||
418 | eroded. So what was the point of this video, the point of the video is to see if | ||
419 | |||
420 | 85 | ||
421 | 00:16:49,110 ~-~-> 00:17:01,920 | ||
422 | he starts seeing opposing conditions that would present both sides. Okay, this | ||
423 | is obviously a nice ideal scenario to be a buyer at when classical support | ||
424 | |||
425 | 86 | ||
426 | 00:17:01,920 ~-~-> 00:17:12,360 | ||
427 | resistance would work. If you just use this Oh, hi, yet classical support | ||
428 | resistance would be favorable here. In this area here, when we have a high a low | ||
429 | |||
430 | 87 | ||
431 | 00:17:12,390 ~-~-> 00:17:22,470 | ||
432 | higher high once the lower point or low and between those two highs is broken on | ||
433 | the downside, draw that level as your resistance generally, it'll act as | ||
434 | |||
435 | 88 | ||
436 | 00:17:22,470 ~-~-> 00:17:35,940 | ||
437 | resistance and your classical support as our levels will work. But if we have a | ||
438 | range that's defined with this massive repricing as what this is here, all of | ||
439 | |||
440 | 89 | ||
441 | 00:17:35,940 ~-~-> 00:17:46,680 | ||
442 | this by side delivery, extremely overweighted. On the buy side, the market does | ||
443 | in fact rebounds right at this point here and it spends a lot of time | ||
444 | |||
445 | 90 | ||
446 | 00:17:46,680 ~-~-> 00:18:00,360 | ||
447 | accumulating right off of this breaker. It runs up to its obvious level of order | ||
448 | flow that would create a barrier or wall. Now they tried several times to drive | ||
449 | |||
450 | 91 | ||
451 | 00:18:00,360 ~-~-> 00:18:09,060 | ||
452 | it up in there one more time here higher high, and it just couldn't find | ||
453 | traction going up. But even though it didn't find traction going up, this | ||
454 | |||
455 | 92 | ||
456 | 00:18:09,390 ~-~-> 00:18:18,900 | ||
457 | retracement really wasn't all that energetic either. So what I'm doing is I'm | ||
458 | using a very, very small position to get attached | ||
459 | |||
460 | 93 | ||
461 | 00:18:19,079 ~-~-> 00:18:29,249 | ||
462 | to this particular pair. Because I have a position and it allows me to think | ||
463 | about what I would be feeling if I had skin in the race. In other words, if I | ||
464 | |||
465 | 94 | ||
466 | 00:18:29,249 ~-~-> 00:18:37,439 | ||
467 | had money, and at that risk, which I don't own this because it's a demo trade, | ||
468 | everything I teach with is a demo. Now you can have an issue with that and say, | ||
469 | |||
470 | 95 | ||
471 | 00:18:37,439 ~-~-> 00:18:44,789 | ||
472 | well, you have any business teaching, because you're not trading with real | ||
473 | money. I'm not here to defend that I could care less. Okay, I'm teaching | ||
474 | |||
475 | 96 | ||
476 | 00:18:44,789 ~-~-> 00:18:54,839 | ||
477 | conceptually. And if you're a new trader, that's my target audience, because you | ||
478 | need to have some kind of foundation and you don't build a foundation with live | ||
479 | |||
480 | 97 | ||
481 | 00:18:54,839 ~-~-> 00:19:03,689 | ||
482 | funds, because the only thing it's going to do is teach you bad habits, and poor | ||
483 | thinking and worry about the money. And I'm teaching the concept of reading | ||
484 | |||
485 | 98 | ||
486 | 00:19:03,689 ~-~-> 00:19:13,649 | ||
487 | price action, if you can respect that. Going forward and just understand it the | ||
488 | conceptual ideas that I teach, repeat over and over and over again. That does | ||
489 | |||
490 | 99 | ||
491 | 00:19:13,649 ~-~-> 00:19:25,589 | ||
492 | not translate into money. Now, it could, if you do it with a Live account, and | ||
493 | it pans out in your favor. But it also can and it absolutely will turn around on | ||
494 | |||
495 | 100 | ||
496 | 00:19:25,589 ~-~-> 00:19:35,129 | ||
497 | you. And you'll do it wrong and you'll suffer a loss. If you try to trade with | ||
498 | live money. Nothing that I do in my teachings provides a 100% strike rate, it | ||
499 | |||
500 | 101 | ||
501 | 00:19:35,129 ~-~-> 00:19:51,269 | ||
502 | doesn't happen. I take losses I lose sometimes I get it wrong sometimes. I just | ||
503 | read it wrong. And I'm not stating that this is going to make you money. I'm | ||
504 | |||
505 | 102 | ||
506 | 00:19:51,269 ~-~-> 00:20:02,609 | ||
507 | stating that this is going to help you avoid times when the market is far less | ||
508 | likely to pan out in your favor. And then Again, it's whenever we see opposing | ||
509 | |||
510 | 103 | ||
511 | 00:20:03,179 ~-~-> 00:20:12,149 | ||
512 | ideas, and you're inside of a trapped range ready to hit the market can't find | ||
513 | its way out. If you go back and look at periods where there's extended | ||
514 | |||
515 | 104 | ||
516 | 00:20:12,149 ~-~-> 00:20:24,839 | ||
517 | consolidation in a market or specific asset class, chances are you're going to | ||
518 | find this scenario. Cake this, there's a there's a good side and a bad side to | ||
519 | |||
520 | 105 | ||
521 | 00:20:24,839 ~-~-> 00:20:35,459 | ||
522 | this. Okay, the bad side is it's very difficult to find moves with a great deal | ||
523 | of magnitude that go higher or lower, we have to find our way out of that that | ||
524 | |||
525 | 106 | ||
526 | 00:20:35,459 ~-~-> 00:20:48,509 | ||
527 | range first. The good news about this is that there's going to be a large | ||
528 | displacement that will occur once we exit this range, once there has been a | ||
529 | |||
530 | 107 | ||
531 | 00:20:48,509 ~-~-> 00:20:57,629 | ||
532 | buildup of positions, and we don't know for certain if it's the institutional | ||
533 | buying or the institutional selling that has the heavier weight. I don't know | ||
534 | |||
535 | 108 | ||
536 | 00:20:57,629 ~-~-> 00:21:08,639 | ||
537 | that. But I know that once we leave this range, we'll have a pretty high odds | ||
538 | that we're going to have a sustained price move of several 100 pips both know it | ||
539 | |||
540 | 109 | ||
541 | 00:21:08,639 ~-~-> 00:21:19,409 | ||
542 | could be, you know, move up several 100 pips or several 100 PIP move lower, I | ||
543 | don't know at this point. But I'm placing weight on the fact that I want to be | ||
544 | |||
545 | 110 | ||
546 | 00:21:19,409 ~-~-> 00:21:26,819 | ||
547 | on the high end of the range here, with the likelihood of it clearing up these | ||
548 | relatively equal lows. And that's what this liquidity pool is, if we run through | ||
549 | |||
550 | 111 | ||
551 | 00:21:26,819 ~-~-> 00:21:37,739 | ||
552 | this and serve some kind of energy, I would like to see it below, here. But if | ||
553 | I'm wrong, and it trades all the way up, stops this out and trades above this | ||
554 | |||
555 | 112 | ||
556 | 00:21:37,739 ~-~-> 00:21:46,439 | ||
557 | liquidity pool, relative equal highs, then I think that this high is going to be | ||
558 | taken out, and we'll probably trade, you know, a little bit longer move on the | ||
559 | |||
560 | 113 | ||
561 | 00:21:46,439 ~-~-> 00:21:58,229 | ||
562 | upside. If you look at also, euro dollar, you know, we've been in a really | ||
563 | sloppy consolidation. For months since the fall of last year, the Euro dollar | ||
564 | |||
565 | 114 | ||
566 | 00:21:58,229 ~-~-> 00:22:12,059 | ||
567 | has basically been sleeping inside of a range of a couple 100 pips. And this | ||
568 | movement here, it's highly suspect to just remaining in the range. So to help me | ||
569 | |||
570 | 115 | ||
571 | 00:22:12,059 ~-~-> 00:22:23,639 | ||
572 | get a better feel of what prices in initially showing right now, for this week, | ||
573 | I wanted to carry something from over on non farm payroll, I wanted to see how | ||
574 | |||
575 | 116 | ||
576 | 00:22:23,639 ~-~-> 00:22:33,029 | ||
577 | we opened up we didn't really open up to much different from where we closed on | ||
578 | Friday. So again, I'm watching to see if we reject this low, and then we try to | ||
579 | |||
580 | 117 | ||
581 | 00:22:33,029 ~-~-> 00:22:45,569 | ||
582 | run higher up, it would look really weird in terms of price action, but it can | ||
583 | do it. And it would only be beneficial to me. If we run these highs, because I | ||
584 | |||
585 | 118 | ||
586 | 00:22:45,569 ~-~-> 00:22:53,669 | ||
587 | think then this high would be taken out. And we were just going to continuously | ||
588 | press higher on the higher time frame dealing range being broken. But for now, | ||
589 | |||
590 | 119 | ||
591 | 00:22:53,699 ~-~-> 00:23:02,819 | ||
592 | as long as we remain below these highs, that obviously would indicate to me that | ||
593 | we're probably gonna make a run declare up these equal lows. Now it could come | ||
594 | |||
595 | 120 | ||
596 | 00:23:02,819 ~-~-> 00:23:12,359 | ||
597 | down clearly sequel lows, rebounds this void. And that would be something that | ||
598 | we monitor monitoring and seeing if they make or attempt to run back up. We | ||
599 | |||
600 | 121 | ||
601 | 00:23:12,359 ~-~-> 00:23:15,839 | ||
602 | would like to see it obviously find resistance in here and not try to trade back | ||
603 | above | ||
604 | |||
605 | 122 | ||
606 | 00:23:15,839 ~-~-> 00:23:24,809 | ||
607 | here and move lower. But you know, we're not in control price, we'll just have | ||
608 | to see what happens. But I just want to give you guys an opportunity to see what | ||
609 | |||
610 | 123 | ||
611 | 00:23:25,019 ~-~-> 00:23:35,249 | ||
612 | it looks like when I have problems. Technically, when it's challenging for me, | ||
613 | because I put a tweet out on Twitter last week and on Friday and mentioned that | ||
614 | |||
615 | 124 | ||
616 | 00:23:35,789 ~-~-> 00:23:46,889 | ||
617 | euro dollar is between two opposing ideas from my content. This is a bearish | ||
618 | breaker. Okay, this is a bearish breaker as well. And that's why I have it | ||
619 | |||
620 | 125 | ||
621 | 00:23:46,979 ~-~-> 00:23:55,889 | ||
622 | directly between both of them. Originally, it was this one. But this one is a | ||
623 | breaker as well. And I got a question asked, you know, what is? Why is this a | ||
624 | |||
625 | 126 | ||
626 | 00:23:55,889 ~-~-> 00:24:06,569 | ||
627 | breaker because what stops would have ran out first. It's this short term high | ||
628 | right here. So the high, low higher high liquidity was ran out here. And then we | ||
629 | |||
630 | 127 | ||
631 | 00:24:06,569 ~-~-> 00:24:18,179 | ||
632 | broke down through it. So that makes this a breaker. So you can see there's all | ||
633 | kinds of layered, opposing ideas. So if I'm trading, I want to find a very low | ||
634 | |||
635 | 128 | ||
636 | 00:24:18,179 ~-~-> 00:24:29,819 | ||
637 | resistance liquidity run. That means everything is so heavily weighted in my | ||
638 | direction, or my idea in that trade setup, that it's going to take a real move | ||
639 | |||
640 | 129 | ||
641 | 00:24:29,819 ~-~-> 00:24:40,619 | ||
642 | of significance for me to be wrong, and see it fail. The more adversities and | ||
643 | things you have standing in your way with your trade idea. We shouldn't be | ||
644 | |||
645 | 130 | ||
646 | 00:24:40,619 ~-~-> 00:24:48,599 | ||
647 | surprised when we have a trade that stops us out or it fails to move out. And | ||
648 | this wears us down emotionally and psychologically. We just can't stand anymore. | ||
649 | |||
650 | 131 | ||
651 | 00:24:48,599 ~-~-> 00:24:59,669 | ||
652 | We just closed the trade. If you look at the overall market environment, it will | ||
653 | look many times similar or similar in many ways. Like I'm describing here, the | ||
654 | |||
655 | 132 | ||
656 | 00:24:59,669 ~-~-> 00:25:07,559 | ||
657 | market In consolidation, so if you look at when markets are trading and trading | ||
658 | ranges, now you understand we can go back and look at price, you'll see that | ||
659 | |||
660 | 133 | ||
661 | 00:25:07,559 ~-~-> 00:25:18,359 | ||
662 | it's being held between two breakers. And one of those breakers gonna have to | ||
663 | give way and then the market will have a much easier way to trade from high | ||
664 | |||
665 | 134 | ||
666 | 00:25:18,359 ~-~-> 00:25:28,199 | ||
667 | resistance liquidity runs, which is where we're at right now. It makes it very | ||
668 | hard for markets to find sustainable moves, then transitioning from that to low | ||
669 | |||
670 | 135 | ||
671 | 00:25:28,199 ~-~-> 00:25:34,979 | ||
672 | resistance liquidity runs, or very efficient, symmetrical price movement. So | ||
673 | hopefully you found this insightful and I'll talk to you next time wish good | ||
674 | |||
675 | 136 | ||
676 | 00:25:34,979 ~-~-> 00:25:35,999 | ||
677 | luck and good trading. |
