Anyone like to share the idea why?

Your chart concerns me...a) you are zoomed in and b) it is blank

If you go and mark you monthly, weekly, daily and finally 4HR PPZ's then it should become clear why one pin went to FTA and the other didn't

Hi Han, in my chart they both close lower than the open, although the first one close on the weaker side but it is bigger in size. Both also fighting the same downtrend and trading right into ppz.



Hi Nasir, of...
Is that the only PPZ you have. Share a chart with your PPZ's and I'll happily provide my own thoughts.

Here are my charts starting with the weekly, then the daily then the 4HR. It's no surprise that the best PA setups occurred in the higher TF PPZ areas.

That's because I use RSI compared to the High or Low of the bar in question instead of the Close - thus it will look slightly different.

This was a classic setup.

Weekly BEOB price retraced back to the broken support with 61% fib confluence (one for the touch traders) and formed a 1hr DBHLC, 2hr pin then a 4 hr pin.

Nos
I closed my ANZD trades - I was planning to hold onto them but am impatient and when it did nothing for a few hours I decided to take full profit.
