I didn't mark it on the chart, but I entered off the bar to the far right that I marked off with a line, squat bar. *added the squat bar to the chartvsa with Malcolm

It took me a couple of tries to get this trade. First trade was off the NS and I was stopped out, second off NSP.

Thanks I will try to widen them a bit in the future, I just like to keep my risk as low as possible. My last one for today, I hope no one minds me posting 3 trades in one day. I saw some volume come in, and immediately afterwards there was tiny ...

I don't know if forex isn't traded as much as it was or if different tactics are being used. It feels like one session price just goes into a choppy consolidation period then the other session there will be some movement. Yesterday for example on GU ...

Can I ask what you think of the euro brexit bar from June 24th? Leaning more towards stopping volume or absorption to the downside?vsa with Malcolm

Trade went 20 pips my direction, but I was stopped out at BE. I set the trade to BE after 10 pips or so, and stopped paying attention to the trade. After the fact its easy to see that Bar A went up into the low of the climatic bar with low volume, ...

I'm assuming it was an SEC mandate that brokers increase forex margin requirements by 50% and probably due to the Brexit? Is there any information about if this increase is only temporary and go back down next month (or sooner)?

I'm not really an authority to reply. But maybe this will help. First you don't want to trade this time of day, you want to trade the London and US sessions. During low volume times price is easier to manipulate than during major sessions. I'm sure ...

If its not asking to much. Can I get an analysis of AUDUSD m5? I have been watching it most of today waiting for a short entry. Hindsight, I think I can see a ND, but I'm not sure if it's true ND.

Wouldn't that be absorption volume since the bar took out the previous low(s)? Would I be thinking of taking the money and running from a short position? I think I'd take a partial profit and wait and see if that MA changes trend before exiting the ...
