Check out this Price Action Concept strategy
Anyone use "Price Action Concepts" with the "Reversal Candlestick Structure" indicator?
👀
ouch the dump
Done for the day.
JR are you R-values Camarilla, other?
Traditional or classic.
CPI, makes it or breaks it.
would have been trading the uptrend candle too in that range, wasn't hyped! 🙂
thought you were done?
Is this the potential NQ swing of all swings?
Hmmmmm. Let's wait and see
Looks like a coin flip 🪙 Not going to place a trade on this but I'm guessing a quik knee jerk reaction up then down hard. Could be the other way around so I'm going to try to stay neutral & just see what happens.
Let's see if anything changes here.
Tough gamble 
CL looks like unfinished business below & above.
It’s the devil 😈
For me this one looks hands OFF. Trading inside value (chop chop) neo flat as a pancake & neo 1 flipping back & forth.

guys - one questions - does teh income earned from funded account eligible for capital gain tax ?
In USA, absolutely yes. Any earned income.
Whether regulated or unregulated.
Legal or illegal, must pay the man behind the curtain 
But of course, ask your accountant, I know nothing
Top step website says - atleast in US - its not considered as CGT - It is considered as normal payee - like independent contractor
That’s TopStep.
We have a higher authority called the USA Government.
“Earned Income” are the key words.
Also any income coming as an independent contractor is also taxable 1000%
Just saying
income taxes are different - however, i am asking for Capital gain tax
Ask your accountant
100 % we have to pay for the income tax , no ambiguity
Of course we are not experts here in discord
ok, Thanks, I see there are many people here trade on funded accounts - so they might have some clue or update on it.
If TS earnings is not taxable, then that is a loophole I should consider. Maybe I should convert my cash accounts and move to TopStep? Hmmmm
but, its hard to explain the tax consultant about funded firm or prop firms
Think about it. Don’t you think the USA figured this out
Don’t listen to TS, as they are not liable for your taxes. Go to an accountant
And, why is TS one if not the only legit prop firms allowed to operate for USA residents?
idk.
may be.
But milk it as long as you can
but , i know there are many people who reguster themselve as hedge fund traders and they dont pay any capital gain tax except the income tax on commissions earned
Yeah, we can register ourselves anything we want. But in the end, you are subject to audit. You will always be looking over your shoulders
Just walk the straight line, and you will never look over your shoulder.
This is Australia regulations about the taxe for share trading
Share investor are different and they are liable for the capital gain tax
I’m in USA, I don’t know about any other country
however, on the contrary share traders only pay income tax - as a ordinary income and does not eligible for the capital gain
and its same for the US though
I don’t know if USA is same as some countries. I only know what I need to do here
I walk a straight line in life
Tax is tax to me. Don’t care what they call it. Or what category it is, I need to pay it
ok, great! Thanks for the info.
Is there a way of predicting and avoiding super ranging market conditions? The PAC clubbed with S&O is working perfect for me, however i am loosing money in options because of premium decay in ranging setup
BDW contrarian isn’t proving that effective in ranging setup
Nice profit in Gold
lol, gold flying high
none of the indicators will not work in ranging setup. All indicators work perfectly in trending markets. so avoid trading ranging market price
if the market is moving slow then it is highly likely it is ranging or choppy.also you can confirm with by looking at big timeframes
if the market is moving fast it is most likely trending or atleast there is volume going in
there is also a good lux free indicator rang detecto mr for 1 min set it to 14
Hey guys, have you checked out the latest poll and voted? #✍polls message
I touched the toxic ex today 
we got numbers in 15 mins
Lets go?
LFG
Spy gap up.
1000 USD more with Gold short - Crazy day today
Those news cleared up all the sessions highs and low 😂😂
classic CPI
whoever traded before the news got stopped that movement was so crazy.... believe will go long
For the 4H NQ, check out the NEW Oscillator Matrix Divergence on main chart.
It told you the bearish move had a possible reversal
New Matrix update 🚀
But one hour shows this could reverse
Or does it get invalidated if it overshoots?
I would not take the divergence blindly, I use it as confluence with other factors, or trade management.
Example, lets say you were in a nice long position, this might be a place to close out for a nice win, considering there were Matrix reversals being formed after that, and price is hitting the resistance zones of the Reversal upper Zone
We can NEVER ever predict and grab the entire move, but we can close out for a healthy profit.
Who cares if price keeps going after you close, no big deal, you got the win
it is about the sizing anyways
who cares where the price goes
if you risked for 1:2 and it is 20 points you get 1:2
we took the top CPI candle, now we run to the bottom of it 😂
right time to short gold?
🔥
nice long
40 points
we still going xD
ok i am out
are we bearish or bullish on this cpi data?
seems neutral on dxy and only y/y 2.9%
it this was higher than 3% i would def be bearish
atm idk
tho we are trying to go lower
we break the lower i will focus on shorts
yeah i hodling another long now
niiice
lets go
ok lets see now
do we break
low of that news candle needs to be taken out
yeah
alright seems we going lower
i'm new to the luxalgo discord, but really like your charts. what indicator are you using? are the arrows your buy/sell entries or are they part of the indicator? thanks!
hello, have a look at the library for metatrader indicators, you can apply a filter on the list https://app.luxalgo.com/library
alternatively, the premium indicators can be found here https://www.luxalgo.com/pricing/
Are we going to 18650?
that's very far. i think NQ has 150 points max to the downside based on a normal day ATR
thank you lux developers for adding osci divergence on the chart..quite helpful...yes, you can combine indicators w price action for you pa ragers...
I like it anyway
This is cpi day tho
the mods are not coders i'm afraid
if you have an indicator idea, by all means feel free to suggest it here and it will be considered by the dev team https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSczyBn-8QbV7izkluquUa7ukHZkMLxPEChK59I4afNM1hlEBA/viewform

NQ vwap at 19064 here
Nice reversal on nq sadly i didnt hold the long for long at the bottom hahaha
was scared it is gonna dump on me
Hey i got 50 points
not the 170 points still a win
Beautiful 2 sided trading. Nice profits!
yeah today is alot better than yday
back inside the 3 mins opening range
we clear above news candle high and then we have the daily high to take out
taken out now
new highs on ES, NQ is almost there
250 points off the lows
now that we did a new high do we grind back down? 
ES look strong though
market is looking pretty strong like yday
barely any pullbacks
i got a quick 25 point short
it is lunch break so i thought it will cool off a little xD
I am done for the day will check on this tomorrow see where we want to go
Damn maybe i should have held that short xD
80 points drop
i was in with micros on this one. nothing big
Nice drop
nice dump
This market scams both buyers and sellers 
There she goes
Nice call out
🚽
I scalped a long on vwap
i trade on 5 sec
nice nice
remember the 5 second renko we discussed before
if these goes in 5sec profits gonna back in low TFs looks promissing
Unrevealed aspects
Ikr xD
oh well focusing on risk management is more important
market is just doing u turns every hour
Yeah I trail on normal days. Market is just too choppy to have clarity..you can get 1 random candle that does 50-100 points
The long?
me
i said that a while ago xD
back to 19100
Knew that FvG would have caused problems …. Sold 3 contracts at that level and 1 at be…. 312$ profit for the day …. Was down 900$ before Ny opening . So I m happy Iike that
heard this before
why is there a cricket emoji? 😂
nasty 1hr range after that selloff
just waiting for another trade posted by @hollow yoke 
"i'm done for today"
How is everyone doing on crude?
$80 a barrel was a big level
Spot on Caca
was watching it the night it broke the consolidation at $75
I was watching it too.
I think it is heading back to that $75
Yeah, right now at 50%
Correct
Probably around $76 or below
What do you mean by this bar clears everything on its left?
Does that mean it engulfs the previous candles?
I see
Btw, how would you know when it's time to exit the trade?
HEYYYYY
You have PAC !!!

@nocturne sigil Look who is here. How are you doing, brother?
ZUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuppp
Give it to me?
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
Crude, I mentioned that yesterday
catch it up right away
@molten zodiac Have you looked at our overview videos on our toolkits we use?
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqCXsOfrM3P5mb5jY7Ye8pguhmozOKBC&si=lE9dKKrPzGeS8Dm3
Yuppppp
There is a BB on that current HH
Target $76 for another HL. All the structure from 4hr to Monthly is Bullish, so I will ride it up again as there is a nice FVG on the left for me.
@gloomy quail which broker/platform are using? id like to try it
Tradovate on TV. ICmarkets and IG
Thanks, I have used Forex.com for a long time
YWC
How did you do? safe?
Hell no
lol
It started this morning when I forgot I had placed a limit order late last night. That took me down like 850 in the morning. Then I got annoyed and tried to make up for it and hit my daily SL lol
So no, not a good day
Whatever, vacation tomorrow and rest of the week. Taking a reboot and will be back
ah man, sorry to hear this
you got this rest of week 
classic nq moves
did you guys survive?
survived to fight another day
tbh I expected a more chaotic cpi day
like 1k+ volatillity
but this is fine too
I guess it was "fair" it gave good moves to both longs and shorts
instead of just one big long and never pulled back
it is fine if it is also long only with 20-35 points pullbacks in between
🆒
uh uh
It's easy to survive when you don't have a cent in a brokerage account or any risk asset account 
anyone trading lean hogs here?
No worries, i just hate news week and big dojo around POC just back and forth, it was ranging a lot. I don’t trade range a lot, I need to be better identify that and adjust
not the best PA today
Seems like the focus is shifting away from CPI and toward employment
rate cuts in september
Also think that CPI print was priced in. Both PPIs were below expectations —> 80% probability that CPI would be at expected or lower.
2yr pricing in 50bps 😱
i was reading it might be 50bps yeah or 60% of the people think there will be a double one
Guess it will depend on employment data. Fed are always slow and the markets seems to often price in more than what occurs.
GC had an interesting reaction today.
Fairly convincing triple.
Wonder if it comes back down to the trend line below.
self made
Well, I've been on the 15 minute timeframe since open. I haven't seen a trade yet. We're taking on the ES.
I guess I guess when you're fishing go to a lower timeframe, huh?
@sturdy wharf 
rhe candle that eated everything before
and also rejected with the ligne
but u entred at the midle it could leave a weak and not eat the others ?
just like the one before
as for the TP why didn’t u went out on the lvl that u designed (the first big candles) the key lvl of last candles ?
nice trades mate 👍🏻
Nice scenery you got there😁
Uses 2H charts to make decisions (buy signal when price is in Discount Zone, is FVG (2h) plus RSI/Volumen confirmation. Immediately after buying, I try to set potential selling levels. These are the important FVG (1D) and Order Block levels. In your opinion, should I use these Order Block 1D or 2H?
if you bought at 90 and have an order block (2h) at 102 and another order block (1D) at 103 and where would you put the take profit order?
from where i can connect tradingview strategy to MEXC future platform. any suggesion?
ill study this, looks simple, you use it on 2m?
cool, ill try it on 1m
this would be valid?
red line

now i am just watching for confirmation
there we go
looks choppy
should have traded gold instead xD
way easier with shorts
I been watching that hour order block at 19600 for days and days now as the price action just keeps creeping towards it lol
I’m rebuilding my strategy around order blocks the more I see y’all use them the more interesting they are to me
Be hard for me to read chart with that many indicators 😅
What indicators are effective?
I normally use price action most of the time and some EMAs and macd
And the news 80% of the time
😅
Up to 19600 we go then we see what happens
Ya that block has been on my chart for more than a week and I’m so mad I kept doubting it over and over lol
@hollow yoke What trading platform you use ?
The more I see those blocks work the more I trust them tho
Won’t miss the next big swing with them
me with my two indicators lmao
Will the built-in values be modified?
Looks like mt to me
What do you usually trade ?most of the time
Taiwan Futures! Interconnected with Nasdaq
WOOOOOOOO
If you only trade for 5 minutes, it will be great! Ema, how do you set up and operate macd?
50 tick drop right there from the dow
80 is enough
I watch 1m 5m and one hour and usually trade in the 5 min chart sometimes 15
you shorted with me ?
Ema and macd, how would you set up follow-up appearances?
I fallow the news a lot and trade on some spikes
Just like this one now
$500 in 5 minutes
I am done for the day
I watch Bloomberg news 😂
I’ll make a video today and send it to you my set up I use
That's really great! thank you very much
speaking of that I want to go to the beach but it is very hot =.=
What trading platform do you use ?
I use Tradovate and fee difference in MT5?
that was a good long on that pullback

Redemption
that's yesterday's covered nice
Yes lol
Everyone have losing trades it’s just a matter how you handle them
Thank you!
Good community helps!
yeah focus on the good trades
losses are part of the game
today I had the wrong idea at first with the shorts even tho they worked then i switched to longs after that big pullback
market seems very bullish this week.all attempts to bring it down didnt work
I need to follow the trend and the information in front of me. Macro, I just look at key levels and most likely the price will head towards the liquidity.
2 things went wrong this week, for me 1) I did not recognize the ranging 2) I did not close a limit order that caused me a good loss overnight. I’m so used to SL and TP with each limit order that these challenges are hard. I also trade like 7 accounts, between stocks, forex, future and crypto
Taking a step back focusing on fundamentals helps
2nd account 🙂
Side note GC looks ready
NQ really needs 19600 so this block holders can let go
If it gets blocked here might tumble hard lol
mother of chop indeed
i tried to scalp shorts from the top they worked but extremely nasty hahahaaa
my stop is litrally 4 points above the range but it never broke it
atleast it gives one big red candle everytime it touches the top
It did it!!
i think the 700s gonna be better for the shorts
thats where we had a massive downtrend of like 2k+ points?
if there are no shorts there then I guess we go for ath
Can’t believe this 1 hour went block to block amazing
Definitely need to rework my strat to center around these blocks going forward just so impressed with them
it doesnt always do that 
Yes I understand that
today we had a really strong trend
But it sure did
lol bro
Call it what you want it went straight to that block that’s been sitting there for a week. I’m impressed as I said there is no way it will make it all the way up there every day this week I said that
And then today finally said you know what it is lol and just caught the tail end
the 1 min candles are so funny to look a big red candle then 10 small green candles in a row 
Big negative order block at 20,000 i might way for a pull back and go for 20,000 with the next setup
stopped me out at 600's to drop 30 points later
it's okay i took the train to the upside now
trading the range with the house money
yeah i also did with small sizes for fun
but it was not fun xD
i got bored and shut it down

ofc now it dumps
SL hunt?
might be profit taking
Easy going with micros. Overall been green all over the week. Hopefully keep going tomorrow. Banked 1600$ and I m fine with that
Blue is slightly above black but not by much. The next day or two is very important for CL.
Overall Balanced day for GC but one timeframing lower as today's low broke yesterday's low. A vpoc is still at around 2450. Daily trend still up.
Vpocs at around 76.56 & 79.66. Value built slightly higher from yesterday into today.
Just wow
how.
Just a heads up to all new people there are a lot of fake people out there, be sure to trust your own strategies and find your rhythm. Learn price action your way. Don't fall for these youtube guru's and others that follow suit dont buy courses. You have a lot of professionals in this discord and a great set of indicators that help you follow price action. I'm sad to see so many people who want to make it big see others making "thousands" per day and think they can do it too, or that it's even real money that they are playing with. Majority of the things you need to learn about trading you can learn online for free and with time. Trading isnt a get rich quick scheme, its a really tough job that takes a high emotional toll. I believe in you all and im always in this futures-stocks-chat if you ever want to talk.
i will not lie
over the past year i made a lot of strategies based on a lof of indicators
worked for a while eated well with them) but stoped working.
the best once’s that lasted are the onces based on price action.
price action is ur way
How do you you get help?
100% Price action is the way.
A lot of people can make indicator strategies work and a lot of people just follow the action of how price moves.
Just to add to this. People share their wins not their losses. Its very easy to "fake" winnings and amounts. All strategies mathematically have to have a draw down it's impossible not to.. and what works for one person may not work for the next. There are numours factors that take place from what you are trading to what time to your emotional strength and ability to manage a trade.. there is so much that goes into it. Lux Algo is a tool like a hammer and many people can do many things with hammers but the most common thing is hit their own thumb.
I've caught many a people cheating their p/l in various ways. Adding deposits, photshopping, trade both directions on two accounts and showing the wins from the winning account only, using paper accounts and straight up coding their own fake p/l screen to look like a common broker. Don't fall for it.
Very true people love to fake their success
Everyone trades differently
Everyone is different
its an easy way to bait in potential marks
Hi
I’m wondering here if we make. Lower high, if so I might take a trade outside of trading hours
Hi
Yeah when you see people making 10's of thousands, or using 5-15 contracts per trade be weary. There are very very very very few people that have the skill let alone the margin to be able to actually trade like that.
Hello
Did u know
thats funny i was looking at nq long here lol
i see the lower high you are talking bout tho
might work down to around 19572
but i dont liek thta its above all moving averages right now
oh see im looking at a 1min scalp
It’s a good area to close a HH and down to a LH
No rush though, I’ll wait until open, but if we get a bearish candles under 200 ema and resistance I’m back short
I'd rather just share charts instead of pnl. Pnl doesn't help to learn or pick up anything.
I agreee
It's really tough to take a position here but if I had to, the open hit a low volume node and fvg which propelled price upward and outside of value. Now that we hit the vpoc from August 1st it's tough to see where next stop is. 4H has untested fvgs below.
Maybe neckline at around 19700
gib bounce ser 
Is it time for SPX to crash down before the weekend? Anyone shorting?
Shorted at 5548. Looks solid.
I’m waiting for my signals I’m not gonna try to catch the top
I see a sell block at 20k on the hourly so plenty of ceiling room imo if the market wants to price in more long
I'm locking in with a SL at 5555
tbh i wanted to short in london but kinda saw how shitty the price action so didnt take the sell
yeah I usually take it easy on fridays
I dont take signals unless they come to me
yeah i did well this week all days were green
considering how shitty the pa in some of the days
last week was way better
I want the volatillity back
I traded chop for years
It is just not fun
i want volatillity xD
like yday the evening ny session it was mega choppy i still took some scalps
on choppy days my risk is low
cuz anytime the range can break and it is not good
I want a healthy market with good up and down moves
not 3-5 points chop
cuz if the market doesnt retrace it usually just crashes hard after a long period
I trade all markets
for that reason
better do something else with my time
some days it is crypto some it is gold some it is nq
i just have more experience with nq than say forex
been trading stocks and nq for years
that was fine for me few years ago
i just got bored and decided to learn something new
there is always more
forex made my experience in nq feel like i knew nothing about the market hahaha
i didnt even know sessions existed until now
I only knew NY
thats was the only thing i traded
and tbh it is still the best session
damn crude tf
Yo guys I'm new to trading
I need some help with everything
who traded the long GOld was busy diden't toke it 😖
yup....
Ya great short
Thanks. I don't have a big account. More so the validation 😆
Good morning
I had targeted 19692 for a short on NQ, I was 12 away and had to go to bed 😂
shorts revenge from yday
WWWW
Gold is flying
Consumer Sentiment at 10:00 est
Thanks!
I held this one for 20 ticks instead of 10 which was huge for me LMAO
ill trade NQ this afternoon i think
good luck bro!
Thanks man
Bro, anyone have topstep funded account
Need some help to understand the challenge things ?
my newest express funded I just traded today for the 7th day of its cycle no losing days, I made another 200$ off of the crude trade today!!!!!!
What a start, maybe im getting the hang of this lol
Mr. @agile jasper is an honorary board member of TS
What do you want to know?
Well done
Thanks 😊
Thank you
What does "express" mean versus regular funded acct? cheaper combines?
Nope thats just what they call XFA's
X stands for Express because they are special
@agile jasper bro you there ??
so there's FA's that are not express?
or thats what they call their FA's?
multiple users with topstep whatsup
Hello
XFA's are express funded for when you pass an account.
They call their Challenges Trading Combines
So theres Live accounts that the best of the best gets
Then Express Funded accounts for those who passs challenges
from XFA you can withdraw real cash @nocturne sigil
This
I actually made more than 6k in just 02 trades
so XFA is different from Live accounts?
Now it's like more than 50 % profit target, however I want to understand, what is next additional amount needed to make?
so traded more than 50% of the goal?
Yes, while an XFA you are technically still on a sim account you get paid off of what you make. Live is just them giving youa ctual capital and trading live money
Yup
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
So Live, you get better splits?
what is your dashboard saying?
pretty sure
All my trades are actually going more than 50%
So thats your next goal, I would assume?
Nothing as of now
nevermind trades, daily profit can't exceed more than 50% of your maximum target
so if you're on 100k, your max profit is $3k. if you make $4k on a day, you need to make extra 2k
consistency rule
My goal has always and will forever be consistent profitability and a continous learning of price action using the same 2-3 indicators.
I want to be a single hitter not a home run hitter
in baseball terms
high Batting Average
I don't understand that math, how does it works ?
whatever you make over $3k in a day, the total profit target is extended by the difference *2
For continuous 02 days - I made around each 3200 USD so total was more than 6000 USD
so if you make $3500 today but your daily target is $3000, you're over by $500.
you will pass when your account is at $107k instead of $106k
Ok, good. This is what I want to know
I was afraid of getting more profit
So I need roughly 600 USD more
I have to lose one trade purposely yesterday. Because my account was 108k.
ES flipping my Kumo it wants to be Longed lol
have to check open and see if we are gonna retrace more
nvm found something better
turn it off
ggs
ggggsss
you still doing your OR Strat?
Whatever your doing, TS is rewarding you
Not a bad short
tought spot im sitting on hands

Tricky Tricky
wow.
NQ pumping
had 3 micros from 550, took 2 out at 586 and riding the last one at 614
Is this the rejection level for the indices to turn to the dark side?
Nice push!
wondering the same thing seems like a good level to whipsaw off of
Yeah, I wonder if its worth the gamble with TB at the purple daily OB?
Yeah its been nice hitting my goal of 8-12 ticks a day on each account.
I have my bad days and still have a long way to go. But consistency is coming.
I just keep journaling and staring at charts
what happens when you snap and have a losing trade?
its usually a rough day
You eat ice cream
ive noticed that when I have more then 2 losing trades its a disaster day so I lock my account after 2 losing trades
1:16 R:R ?
LOLLL
Thats one hell of a tight SL
ive learned only 1 thing about NQ and that 1 thing is dont touch it
Its not for me
is the ES chart the same?
Yeah id short ES instead that way im not getting REKT
ES inside a daily OB
it needs to break 5600.75
and hold it
idk sadly im not the best at equities which is why I stick to gold and crude, sometimes I will trade the YM but its on occasion
yeah I did well hbu mate
was alright been taking it easy did like 8 scalps
8 scalps is easy 
how many do you do on a not easy day
30+ ?
Wowww
depending on market conditions
Anybody else feel like it's better to be done for the day and avoid Friday pm session?
you should yeah
Yes
pm sessions are hard even for experienced people
when i was a newbie i only traded the first hour of the morning session
did that for years
Yup, either way
Gotta know when to close the loss
you guys are all eying the same zone i am eying for a whole week
hahaha
the RR is worth it just dont know if the conditions are good enough atm
We never traded below the pivot so that's bullish. If we start trading below the pivot than that would be an eye opener.
Daily NQ
Looks like it could form a choch if it gets over this high?
higher high or lower high whats it gonna be
haha
Daily NQ for next week.
I see a wedge
Forming to close out the day
What tool available in Trading view do you use to confirm the volume of a top breakout at CHoCH
i sold a 0dte put spread slightly OTM on NQ
if we break and close outside the wedge ill take the l
oh fast continuation to support and resistances zone
when price acation gets boring i like to see if we in in a wedge and then i sell option premium
just one of those little tools in my tool belt
nope i just buy back at %50 profit
the premium gets sucked out quick in final 2 hours of the day
Option spreads and non directional trading (butterflies, condors, etc) are a good tool to keep in your back pocket but very difficult to master and manage for beginners
20 points range incoming
if I got it I would not complain but I think we will stay here for the weekend.
ya ive been in im still in
still 30 mins left
Bullish developments with value higher on the day and both POCs migrated higher with a bullish OB on the pivot for ES.
round trip day, back to were I started
wrong direction lol
My guess is trap shorts into the close only to take it back up again. Are they really going to mitigate those 30 minute FVGs today? Let's see.
out break even
on my vertical
short
will take it lol
wrapping up the week with a break even yall ahve a great weekend
Champ
We green this week ?
NQ is sitting nicely at 0.618 from swing high / low and ema 200 is right there with it. Should be interesting next week.
Was this just a scare, will we climb or fall? tune in Monday to find out 🙂
bull mode on
How is everybody preparing for next week?
with sleep 😂
Good stuff @agile jasper
maybe go watch either deadpool or alien romulus
what are your plans?
I need to catch up on some napping 😴
And Wolverine?
yes that's the one. came out 2 weeks ago or so
Working on the neoscalper. In combination with volume profile and risk management, hopefully it can continue to pull in some profits 🤞 I believe I like it better with the money flow. It just takes some understanding of it.
hhh just heard that one yesterday from an other group
Great day to be a trader 😏
I am a new member I joined on Friday and setup my Futures chart. WOW the screener is awesome I did not know this was possible on Trading view

Nice 
Beautiful short on nq
Scalping rejection from higher tf ob towards the next one….. 7 trades 6 wins and 1 loss @nocturne sigil
morning yall lets have a good week!
OB short on ES 5 min + daily POC
Good way to start the week 11 ticks on crude

Since I buy gold, crude, es, a copper with 2 contracts, Dow with 3, that instead of taking both them off at the take profit to take one off and move a stop to break even.
you're rich you can buy so many things 😂
Not buy, enter. My bad lmao me no have money, me just now winning trades on express accounts lol
Nice 
What do u think of XAU, pls share ur PAC structure.
Good Morning!
Same here reaction to a 15 min ob CHOCH and all way up to tp (1.5-2,5 sd area)
holy
o held my short from before the open was losing hope xD
then i get this dump
i was like no way i see 20 million rejections and it doesnt dump atleast 40 points
might continue to stick with micros though
nq gives me crypto vibes
this is going straight up
lets see now if it dumps again
I truly believe NQ is nastier than crypto
😬
this whipsaw is WILD
What do you think?
crypto is like no movement then one big ass move
nq moves more and moves alot more depending on news
both a pain in the (blank)

right?
ES is our friend
LOL
i never traded ES
NQ mainly
sometimes dow
dow on big days you can get 500+ points
ES 4H
even if you secure half the move thats 250
Es is slow for me
i thrive in volatillity
i got ~~john ~~wicked on NQ.. gave back my profits for the day. 
i suck at slow movements
maybe I should move to a higher TF. Learn a bit more
15m ES
it is hard to be wrong when volume and volatillity is high
1m whippy action
when you are in low volatillity it will be choppy movement and then when does go to high volatillity it is 50-50
i mean 15 min NQ prolly looks the same
I dont use a sl tho..i close manually always
i only trail sl if i am winning
if i am wrong i close manually but it cant be a wick
gl
dont forget we got powell twice this week
on wed and friday
not much news going on this week
only powell
so if the big boys want to pull big moves gonna be during powell
we proolly chop all the way to wed
I don’t play news
I pay zero attention to news and headlines
Those are better for day trades
sure if your sl is in africa
Since I do swings news detracts me
I just size right
Swings are different than day trades tho they are managed different imo
Nice swing
We will see lol
Yes, news less impact on swing moves
Less stress
well idk about low stress but if you sized correctly sure
if it is 1% of the acc it doesnt matter
you can hodl that
nice short
🔥
Thai is what I’m playing btw on the swing 1hr chart
If you zoomed out a bit I’m aiming for that order block above
big 50 points 3 mins candle
stuck in a range
I am overall bullish as well unless the market breaks the current bullish structure
we are above london highs
just need to break asia to make new highs
thats why i think we might chop until wed
if it fails to break those highs we will be chopping
i use renko on nq ,tried on gold but alot slower for me
if you use big timeframes then rebko gold is great
It depends upon the size of block you use
i’m so interested in that started to look last week
gold is very choppy in nature then does big moves
well like i said it is good just not for scalping
Oh you use percentage
RSI Stochastic - put zone 60 and 40
above 60 - Alyways buys
Less 40 - Always sell
duration per trade ?
Put VWAP
Price above VWAP - RSI Stichastic - Above 60 - Look for buy
Price Lower than VWAP - RSI Stochastic - Less than 49 - Look for short
As simple is that
Print some money
you put vwap in the middle of rsi stoch?
Does vwap work with renko?
Yes Default - but off the bands
just one simple line
like EMA
TF - 05 mins
its simple and effective
u use this to scalp or daytrade?
day trade
scalp too
it actually tells the trend - so you wont go against the trend
I tried with size 4 on gold it works really well but it is for a daytrade usually
do not trade - if the RSI stochastic is between 60 and 40 - no trade zone.
we need either above 60 or below 40
you can use fixed too and percentage is much better
as price is changing constantly
i like sizing by number so it is easier to make sl and tp
for crpyto % i assume it is better
but hey i am open to trying it out
might learn something new and apply it somewhere
thanks
What is NQ doing today?
I know the renko - in and out
Check the above chart - Renko made a top, however RSI stochastic took 40 as a risistance - a perfect short rather than going long - you know the trend well in advance- let other go long - lol
A wedge
Seems like an upward range for a couple days and then a decisive move when Powell speaks later this week
chopping
Yes, it is
Yes and boring.
mgc long & cl short were the only good setups I could find so far.

trying out vwap on renko on my renko chart
looks promising
never used vwap on renko xD
you can also use - EMA 20 and 40
Price above 20 EMA - Strong trend to buy
EMA 40 - Pull Back -
It works on renko - differently
not like candles
candles are noisy - so you hardly find a trend
this is difference between candles and renko
All chop on this one.
EMA 20 - Yellow and EMA 40 - Purple
white line is VWAP
follow the trend - not the noise
sorry - Yellow was EMA 05 - but change it to 20
nah
nope - its not long - RSI stochastic is less than 40
hold my beer 😂
less than 40 - no long
yes, it can go up slightly - i dont want to trade in transition of trend or chop
if it is above 60 - definately long
great
got 20 points out of this
longing near ressitence 
in my setup the rsi stocj is above 60 and above vwap and avobe both emas
thats why i took a long and tried it out
ok thats promising so we might actually go higher and break this chop then
lets goooo
niiiiice
thanks bro
good break
my chart still shows the resistance to test yet - lol
At 19699 I’ll scale out some of my swing and move to BE
lets goooo boys
thats some fire long
we cooking
we up 50 points since i took this long
lets see now it either rejects and goes lower
or cools off a little and continues
gonna take a small long for the lols
if we actually break now i am a believe of this strat
hahaha
we are trying to break xD
lets goooo break
might be too optimistic tbh the zone above is kinda huge
might just sell off
You are all over the place lol
hey it is breaking
Delta percentage is lower to have a valid breakout
yooo lets goo
Hey All - What do you think about $ASTS - I'm up 53% with a C330823 33 Strike
we actually broke ???? wow
ok this strat is indeed powerful
this long is almost 20 points in profit now
amazing
