4H OB Trend Bias
15m PAC with 15m market structures + 4H OB's

• Price hit the 4H Breaker Block and was rejected for time being, looking for long positions on a lower TF 15m (or whatever you prefer) utilizing SMC ICT PAC concepts for entry

USD/JPY
4H OB Trend Bias
15m PAC with 15m market structures + 4H OB's

• Price hit the 4H OB and was rejected to the downside, looking for short positions on a lower TF 15m (or whatever you prefer) utilizing SMC ICT PAC concepts for entry and management

[opal cave]

@old crow Dear Mickey, thanks for being there for all of us. I am trading Crypto. Can I use your 4H PAC + 15 min Signals&Overlays&Matrix strategy as 1H PAC + 15 min Signals&Overlays&Matrix or 15 min PAC + 5 min Signals&Overlays&Matrix ? What are your thoughts on this?

Sorry, Micky 🙁

[old crow]

YES, whats important is the multi TF analysis, viewing what a higher TF tells us, so we have a snese of trade direction on a lower TF

[opal cave]

Thank you very much.

[real basin]

@old crow so in a situation like this what would be the game plan? just sit back and see what direction it takes wait for a retest in that direction then take a trade if it lines up with bias ?

[old crow]

If this is your higher TF for bias, for me I am only concerned with levels, nothing else for this strat. Then on a lower time frame, I want to see price reject a higher TF OB level or a retest

I tried to go over this analysis on the past streams https://www.youtube.com/live/qMkqoqIUhxE?feature=share

[hasty willow]

Hi @old crow , I hope you are well. I just sent you an sms in your inbox

[old crow]

Ok I’ll try to get through the DMs soon

ES
There you go, brief scap to the upside, and this wants to test the 4H OB again

Here is the order flow on the 15m, trade management, scalp and done, profit, breakeven, or safe.
Now we wait for another set-up

Can I use Lux Algo Indicator directly inside my broker's tradingview chart? I am using Binance and I see Binance has tradingview chart in them. Can I directly use the indicator there?

[little flint]

no

[real basin]

@old crow done and dusted stayed in the trade because of the hiken candles and the tracer H4 was on the down trend M15 seemed like it wanted up but the higher TF was right!! thanks man

I probly could have held it longer but im really happy with the profit and percentage the problem i always have Is that i hold for too long then round trip

[tranquil kiln]

I'm trying to understand the silver bullet, can someone tell me what I should be looking at on the chart

[old crow]

WHOA !!!!!!!!!

[real basin]

need to keep and eye on the OB and the Premium Buy zones for bounce glad I tp'd on eu yesterday because it bounced good off the premium buy

[old crow]

Same here, as long as im happy, I dont care how much further price will go, no FOMO

[real basin]

yea man its like I think could have made more but then that might turn into i didnt make anything lol

@old crow do we have anything like this in premium ? where it shows the SR in this style ?

[old crow]

LOL

[old crow]

yes we do, the ones in your pic are the basic levels, but if you scan through the LuxAlgo TradingView libarary, you will find some cool versions that have unique twists and features based on these basic versions

Lux does not just want to remake a basic version and slap it up, if it makes sense, they will make it better on steroids that will have a better take on the concept

[real basin]

any one you can recommend broski

[old crow]

Let me scan through that in a bit, BUT FOR ME, I want my 4H OB levels from PAC

Look at ES

• all these measured moves around the 4H levels

insane really

[real basin]

yeah true i just want the SR for more confluence I guess

[old crow]

Yes, i understand and very good as well, ill take a look in a bit, need to babysit my position now

[real basin]

yeah man super eye opening how come you didnt call me and tell me this 6 months ago ? lol jk

its about over in a bit

closing soon

you see how patient I needed to be, it was tough waiting all this time, could i had gone for that long entry? sure, but i waited for the pullback

instead

LOLLLLL

we stalk

[real basin]

very nice got in a little but later but still in proffit

was thinking of closing on the premium buy on the h4

[old crow]

See that HUGE thick OB's?

thats why the wait, thats why the short

[real basin]

yeah i saw that but unfortunately i was busy when it touched the OB on the H4 i wanted to short when it touched but i didnt get a chance too

[old crow]

Next time, but at least you know your set-up, thats more important than you actually taking the trade, you just didnt have time to get to the charts earlier, no big deal, the important thing is, you know your rules and set ups

Once you know your rules and set-ups, no one can take that away, you trade when you want to trade

[real basin]

yes but a bent the rule a little becaue i saw the MSB on the 5 and the H4 bias was down so i still went in

[hasty willow]

Hi Micky! in your chart which ones are the OB and which ones are the breakers? in colours

Bullish and Bearish OB

[real basin]

hes ok hes got gloves and googles on lol

[old crow]

the OB's and Breakers are the same level. Once the OB is mitigated, it is then called a breaker block to show that this level can be just as important later

[hasty willow]

Ok, I see 3 colours. I guess the green is the Bullish OB and red is the bearish, how about the grey one?

[tame socket]

yooo

[old crow]

let me clean it up so you can see, i will hide overlaps so its easier to see

@old crow check my name

[old crow]

When price crosses over, mitigates, the bullish or bearish OB, it changes colors so it helps visually.
I drew circles where price mitigates and color change @hasty willow

leave that off then ?

[old crow]

#1137449177249488968 message Check out the pinned posts here on my personal settings

[hasty willow]

Oh i see, for the bullish ones, once they are violated it becomes grey to symbolize Breaker, and the bearish once violated it turns into like brown to symbolize breaker also. Am I wrong or right?

[old crow]

correct

[hasty willow]

for your reference in future so that it does not confuse the analysis

separete OB and Breaker, you are really smart. I like that

thanks

[old crow]

Not for me, OB or Breaker is just a level to me a a 4H, price does what it wants to do

[hasty willow]

It is indeed. refined supply and demand. makes sense

[old crow]

Look how price reacts to these OB/Breakers when it comes back to them

OBs are not important at the time that it forms, it is important to me, when price gets back to these levels

[tough goblet]

@old crow do you give any weight to the purple candles when you entered short on the 15?

[old crow]

yes and no, i watch the matrix as well, so if my HA bar pattern says the same with matrix, then i go

[tough goblet]

Perfect!! That is what kept me out of that trade. That's ok I got my 10 Micky pips on UJ!

why you switching up on me im barely getting the H4 now your throwing in the H1 lol @old crow

NEO Cloud

• Look at Lux Candle Color on Neo Cloud

[old crow]

LOLLLLLL

many many WAYS to skin a cat

For Signals/Overlays strat ONLY, I like to use 1H and 15m/5m, for my 10 pips scalp.

for larger TP's, I want to see 4H OB's on regular candlsticks

Look at EU or UJ, how many times I can steal 10 pips with Lux candle coloring in directions of Neo?

Hey Micky, just going through the latest pro strategy. Can you explain why you wouldn't have taken the trades with the yellow arrows? It is all based around the flip of the cloud being the trigger and therefore you'd have missed those 2 probable sticky situations?

@warm blaze has earned the Lux Level 1 role!

Welcome to LuxAlgo Level 1! Here is a cookie for contributing into the LuxAlgo community. Keep it up & thank you for being with us! <3

[old crow]

Hey there, zoom out, and look how far away this measured move is from the Neo flip, there comes a time where these waves get exhausted and wither out.

and remember that short play you marked on the 1H, that was heading into a 4H OB, so depending on the strat, will dictate what I will be looking for

[warm blaze]

Makes complete sense that the wave got exhausted, but then the showcase example is further down that wave. Only reason I ask is because i'm doing my best to make as much of a rule based system as possible beacuse I've been burnt 1 too many times with over manual trading 🤣

At time's theres almost too many options and indicators to choose from i'm like a kid in a candy store!

[old crow]

OK yeah, its a candy store. I make it simple, how about this, this same Neo cloud chart, just use this with a lower TF neo cloud chart.
Forget about PAC or my 4H OB chart.
Only NEO template

Here is 1H and 15m Neo on HA

Thats it

Forget about Matrix for now.
Look at main chart

I drew red box on 1H where the 15m Neo flipped

Now look at all entries based on candle color only

I marked them all, win or lose, i marked them all

Even the losers, are safe and small losses or break evens small wins

as long as your entering in same direction as higher TF
you should not be rekt

Now implement ther features, like Matrix and Trend Catcher to try to filter out some trades per rules and not to over trade

if you blindly took all these entries and let it run until candle color flip, then this is what your going to do

https://tenor.com/view/osita-osita-iheme-nigerian-nollywood-calculating-gif-16142281

[real basin]

https://tenor.com/view/cash-money-please-dab-kids-boyfriend-gif-17321623

[old crow]

NQ

try different TF combinations

BETTER YET
YOU can use ONE chart
AND use NEO as your higher longer smoother trend and take candle coloring entries with NEO

ONE CHART

I wont suggest this, but trying to have you see this in simple way

look

[tame socket]

That is actually pretty smart Micky

[old crow]

hold on

[tame socket]

That’s something I understand

[old crow]

NEO bearish, only LOOK for shorts, who cares about the nice Long entries that has great win R:R, dont care, im looking for Shorts, this keeps me concentrated and focused ONLY on shorts

gets my brain organized

Heres BTC on 15m, I like to use crypto on lower TF, if you know what I mean, LOL.

I squeshed the charts to see more as btc was rangling alot

ONLY take candle color entries in direction of neo

• FOCUS on that "ONE" Lux feature that YOU LOVE, then build a strat around it....

• In my old Lux days, I LOVE NEO CLOUD, anyone can attest to this back in the day

[naive blade]

problem is most newer traders hate going through strat burn in

[old crow]

• So I build around the NEO

[naive blade]

thats why you see so much bouncing around these days

dont think i ever used neo but i remember it

[warm blaze]

Really appreciate you taking the time and laying it out, super helpful

[old crow]

But after all these Lux years and months, what was the most common theme about me, on every chart, every day, every month?

• Lux Algo Candle Coloring

☝🏽

• ON all past and present Lux updates and release, features come and go to legacy to make room for better features, but what is that one FEATURE that will ALWAYS stay with Signals/Overlays?

YOU guessed it

LUX ALGO CANDLE COLORING

(hint hint)

So NEO + Candle Color = "Time to Lurk and Troll Rest of Day"

https://tenor.com/view/lmao-spit-take-cracking-up-haha-so-funny-omg-gif-17921247

All jokes aside, this is really good stuff
Find your favorite feature(s), build aroud it

[tame socket]

That’s an indicator of its own, power baby

[old crow]

I had al old OLD Lux strat I post that was ONLY Lux Candle Colors, if I can find that post link, Ill post it

[tame socket]

Yes pls , it’s something I’d like to add to ict

For instance if we for@ CHOCH and price turns from purple to red then it may not revisit the fvg and continue delivering price lower hence we can have a good entry

Remember this level I posted on BTC last week?

• Well it broke, and look where price just fell, not chopped, but dropped to?

With my 4H PAC OB strat, only 2 Paths really, just have to sit and wait for price to take one of the Paths

• Here was that breakdown on a lower 15m TF
• Depending on your entry rules

Here is that same 15m TF BTC chart, with only the 4H OB's

• So depending on your entry model, here was the bearish path, the break and retest, then entry

• You can use SMC ICT PAC for entry or Signals Overlays, etc etc

• Want to add NEO and candle color with regular candlesticks? sure

• Just Neo cloud? ok

[mystic granite]

Hi @old crow previous hours JPY turned against my trade suddenly and powerfully. I haven’t expect that ….. in one hour my stop loss was crossed . Was that any news or using your 4hour order blocks strategy I could prevent this to happen. For instance the trades were USDJPY and GBPJPY.

[old crow]

• Smart Trail? ok

You get the point

[old crow]

show me where? you went long or short? NY time?

chart looked good to me, but I didnt trade it live today

[obsidian trout]

What’s happening with coinbase now?!😳

Coinbase i mean😂

[old crow]

Here is the 4H
Yesterday heading into the 4H OB above, then bounced and headed back down to the other 4H OB, then bounced back to the upper 4H OB, and then back down to an OB.

• Bouncing back and forth between OB's

here is the Path

Then 15m TF for trade management

For me, the trade(s) is when price breaks out from a 4H OB or retest rejection on a 4H OB

• My TP trading this way, will never be beyond a 4H OB, I may take partials, and let the rest run, but TP is next 4H OB, or trade management to stop you out sooner than later

Dont forget, MAJOR JPY news later, the big market makers probably fighting for a position now before the news drop? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[real basin]

i feel like there is more to the trigger retest reclam or msb and then send it idk

maybe im ovet thinking it

[mystic granite]

That’s a screen of my trades…. Went long on both and both of them suddenly reversed against my position. It took one hour or maybe little more. Was fast enough I didn’t even see it coming…. All indicators gave me a good to go for a long but it reversed soon after …. So was thinking maybe a news since jpy was in both of them.

[old crow]

That’s why I always mentioned, after you get the setup path on the 4H, go down to a lower TF and use your own chart rules to get in

[real basin]

I get you but for some reason my execution lacking i would like to get better and have a better trigger

[old crow]

Without a full screen image of entire chart, I don’t think I can analyze your chart properly. But what is your exit rule? I’m not talking about your SL, I mean what would you need to see to close out the trade if your initial direction becomes invalid? That’s the key. Trade management

[old crow]

Where do you have hesitation? Are you using this 4H OB chart?

[real basin]

On the confidently hitting the buy /sell button yeah im using the 4h OB now ....i get that were supposed to go down to the 5 or 15 but what i struggle with is saying ok on in now after the the first rejection or bounch of the OB

[old crow]

OK so when price breaking out of 4H OB, or retest/reject, then you are ready, but no entry yet, you go down to lower TF, and you stalk your set-up, whatever that set-up is, maybe Signals/Overlays Neo, Smart Trail, or PAC internal structure break, or pull back to FVG for entry, so many ways to enter. So this 4H chart telling you to ONLY look for one direction, then you wait for your rules for that direction only, on a lower TF

[real basin]

thas my issue so many way to entry and I then secound guess

[old crow]

When i get ready for the day, my goal, doesn’t happen all the time, but my goal is to find something to tell me to ONLY look for trades in one direction only, and forget about the other direction. That’s it. That something could be a 4H OB chart or a 1H Neo Cloud. Either one of this will tell me what direction I will look for only to start my day. This way, I just eliminated half my chart analysis in a direction. Now my head is focused more now. I am more attentive to only ONE direction. That’s it. I dont want to look for longs and shorts all the time. My head spins….

[real basin]

your right thats what i do to myself then i start to lose focus

[old crow]

Im not saying this to say its the ONY way, I am saying this to help traders stay focus on a trade set up in one direction only. Then whe you master this, sure, watch more symbols, or scalp up and down.....this is just a reboot on getting focused

Example, What if I told you, you can only, and MUST ONLY take ONE scalp trade for 5 pips, going LONG only, on the EUR/USD during the first hour of NY open, and thats it. Only take one long scalp on EU during first 60 miniutes of NY open. Guess what, the day before, you will be prepared and ready, you will make sure that you got YOUR entry rules engrained into your head for ONLY a small 5pip scalp on EU for the first 60 minutes. Thats it.

I bet you will be very fucused on this ONE task that is given to you.

[real basin]

I def would lol

[old crow]

https://tenor.com/view/lioness-hunting-savage-kingdom-hunt-mode-big-cat-hunt-gif-18963358

This is us, with ONLY one task

One and done for the day.
Then when your consistent, sure, 2 and done, then 3 and done...etc

[real basin]

your right man

[old crow]

EXAMPLE TASK

• Here is 4H HA chart
• I drew a red box where we start out day
• Your task, one and only task is to enter ONLY LONG when you get the first Green candle confirmed for 10 pips TP
• These are 4H bars, you will be waiting a long time, but it is a simple task, only one task

You think you can complete this task?

This is only an example for demonstrate executing on ONE task only

[real basin]

Bro your makins this to EZ where were you like 6 months ago like really !!!

FOCUS

Find "something" to tell you to focus on a task

Thats it

USD/JPY 4H OB + HA
Before I get jumped on

• Doesn't hurt to experiment
• Why follow the crowd?
• We don't have to be sheep?

[old crow]

Before anyone says that HA candlesticks dont show true OB levels.
AGREE AGREE, but hear me out.

Its all relative, right?

OB levels on regular candlesticks are accurate and relative to regular candlesticks.
So why can't OB's on HA candlesticks be accurate and relative to the HA candlesticks?
All relative, right.

So the HA candlestick patterns is my market structure, and HA wicks on either end of the body tells a story within its "OWN" market structure.

Take a look at the charts below, 4H HA & 15m HA

Interesting.

(I am not the first one that see's this as well...)

Can't stop me from staring at my charts, trying to see if I missed a clue before.

You stare long enough, you might find that piece you were looking for.

Man, I do this at KFC!

[old crow]

I have a posted strategy here, and template link posted in the Pinned post here:#1137449177249488968 message

[old crow]

Extra crispy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have another HA strat, unrelated to what I have chatted in the past, its a good one.

But good night for now, so tired!

[unreal sorrel]

and strategy about focus 10 pips?

[gritty kite]

Good night my friend

[old crow]

10 or more

Laters!

👋🏽

[unreal sorrel]

good night my friend

[hidden moss]

Nasdaq - 3 min, Autopilot Mid-Term. Beautiful!

Strategies should have been worked out already (Asset>timeframe>buy/sell signal>exit signal --- that`s it), we are paying expensive sucscription fees here...you guys still just "playing around" here and changing everything every minute, searching for new solutions. Making thing more and more confusing and complicated. Everything is understandable but still...Need more clear buy/sell SIGNALS and concrete EXIT signals...like on the picture. Everybody knows there is no HOLY GRAIL, just need more precise guidance from you. Not that I am complaining or whining. Good luck!

[candid salmon]

That's the tricky part! We just gotta be sure we see what's there and not be selectively filtering 😁

[hidden moss]

Where is exact or suggestive Buy/sell signal and where is exact or suggestive exit signal here from Luxalgo? Would be nice to actually see it on the chart, I am not so smart to keep guessing...Sorry!

[old crow]

Have a good night everyone 👋

[tame socket]

Indicators are there to support an ALREADY existing trading plan of yours and NOT as a trading plan itself. Everyone trades different some use signals some use oscillators some use auto drawing indicators. Lux is kind enough to include everyone’s preferences into their tools, something you should be thanking for instead of criticizing why new solutions are being brought to place.

[tame socket]

Gn Micky Boy

[winter bone]

in every video of luxalgo , there's a risk warning for dont follow signal blindly . and theres no such thing like exact signal , every one will be billionaires .

[hidden moss]

General public and people are more simple. Need a simple signal...ok, be lucky and happy. Ignore my moaning. I am good and you are doing well, so let`s get on with our lives! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Nasdaq - 17 pips already up thanks to Luxalgo signal! Excellent! Good signal!

[undone sequoia]

you trade microlots with your vast experience?

[hidden moss]

London session, first 2 hours, 104 green pips taken, nice! 🙂 All trades closed...

Etc, etc, etc...Its not a strategy as such, cant explain, wish I could automate it or break it into some sort of signals but it`s just intuition(al) scalping after 11 years of watching JUST NASDAQ. Watching them turningpoints roundnumber levels and acting accordingly. Trading is hard and as such all respect to you trying to find an OVERALL concrete strategy to all timeframes... 🙂 I guess IT IS POSSIBLE with small(er) losses and big(ger) wins sort of way...!

[obsidian trout]

What signals are you using? Short term, mid term or long term? And do you use a preset?

[hidden moss]

These were Autopilot mid-term, no preset signals on previous chart photo. 3 min chart.

worked on quiet times, when traders and their emotions come in, it`s all messy again...

[obsidian trout]

I recommend you to not use signals only, use the trend catcher too to look for trends and maybe the smart trail. @hidden moss

Yes i got a lot of false signals as well but i ignore them if the trend catcher and smart trail are on the other direction.

[mystic granite]

Was following the live chart on YouTube ….. I like the higher time frame order block strategy . Since I m entering on 1 hour time frame do you think day time frame is more appropriate for order block?

[random sail]

this have new settings?

[hidden moss]

Oh, really, didn`t think of that, I try, thanks for noticing...

Other thing you can try on 3 min chart is put on Short-Term Autopilot and take STRONG SIGNALS ONLY. From Signal to signal, like on picture. Ignore candle colours, looks like a winner strategy!!! 🙂

Where there is a big cross - its news time, that doesnt count. 20 min before and after NEWS no deals.

[random sail]

what's the signal sensitivity

[hidden moss]

When you use Auto-pilot, it automatically switches off sensitivity, leave it on default. Or 10.

[random sail]

how filter the fake signals?

[stiff bronze]

Hey fellow traders, i want to build up a trading account but dont have enough money as yet. I want to try binary options as the compoung effect on them is crazy. I know the risk involved, not born yesterday.. have any of you tried this before? Any successful strategy. Pls and thanks.

[hidden moss]

You take already ONLY STRONG signals, thats your filter 🙂 🙂 🙂

[random sail]

this is strong but fake

[hidden moss]

You just take a loss there... Wait for next win. It`s 3 min chart - you get around 10 - 20 trades inside 24 hours - you will stay a winner in the end of 24 hours. At least you have a proper strategy.

[random sail]

ooo thanks

sorry last question where is the sp

sl

[stiff bronze]

Use the trend catcher as additional confirmation. What day and time was this?

[hidden moss]

Open Strong signal ONLY, close next upcoming signal(weak or strong, does not matter, thats your tp).

Everything is just suggestive and advisory, I am not a Luxalgo worker. Good luck!

Asian and London sessions right now, today, as you can see, you stay overall winner,,,tiny losses but wins are bigger! 🙂 Strong signals only! Nasdaq 3 min.

[old crow]

Good morning

I think you'll like the next sticky fact

It is unusually quiet today

The Smart Trail on UJ 4H is about to switch

[old crow]

If this 4H HA candle holds this line, Then I want to see 15m price breakdown below, while breaking below the 4H OB

[gritty kite]

For a second I thought that was UJ and was wondering if I am seeing things 🙂

[old crow]

UJ with my little line in the sand (Ill think of a new name for this...)

[gritty kite]

Previous day high?

Low even

[old crow]

naw...nothing like that but something like that, but really not like that

[real basin]

@old crow are we still shorting eu lol ?

[old crow]

I'm actually no taking any live trades today, as I am creating and testing a new strat, BUT from the 4H OB strat template, no shorts as its in a OB now, need the PATHS to form for me to consider anything today, so if this gets rejected, I want to see a restes for a scalp long. If price breaks below the OB, then yes, Ill look for a short

[real basin]

whattt new start ?! hell yeah

yeah My tp on bith my eu positions hit so im hapy

[old crow]

NICE!

[old crow]

Im trying to create something, maybe nothing, but if it's safe, then for sure Ill post all the rules and stuff

[real basin]

that was my second position my other one was smaller but when i saw that it was going in the direction i wanted it to i compunded on the pull back

[old crow]

great read, now shut it down?

[real basin]

it closed over night i didnt want to get greedy

[timber frigate]

guys one question please for the Lux Algo signals the Bearish or Bullish signal appears from the start of the candle or always when the candle close?

[old crow]

Yes, candle closes is always best, when candle closes, it confirms the signals

DXY sitting here taking a break for the weekend.

London closing....wrap it up for Big Ben!

[timber frigate]

Ok but the indicator shows the signal on top of the candle when the candle starts? I mean when the indicator shows the signal on the chart?

[old crow]

Wait for it to close to confirm it

[timber frigate]

yes I know just I am working on a bot and I wanted to know when is the first time that appears on the screen

[tulip pagoda]

Good lord y’all got busy in here

It does look the same tho. But I still like it micky

[rancid tundra]

does anyone know, is there a difference between the charts of "e mini" S&P & normal S&P? I assume that you have "mini' because you're not leveraging? TIA

[proper wing]

All right 1st day of my TOPSTEP trading combine 100K challenge. The trading rule says I can not go over 50% of the profit target. Lol

@old crow Get on Funding

prop

It's fun to play with house money

[hidden moss]

I show how banks work - their target is ALWAYS 100 pips. So at first they took 100 pips up from 4556 to 4656, then they pushed market down 50 pips to 4596, then took 100 pips from 4596 to 4696, now their targret is back down 100 pips from 4696 to 4596, they have pushed it down to 4656, now, when trend to downside is too strong they turn around at 4656 and target 4756. Mark my words, you will see at closing time. they have taken 200 pips from New-york.

[old crow]

Nice

[old crow]

Maybe one day soon

[proper wing]

Box is back, today is the day. If you need help with the set up let me know. i am using Rithmic

with Ninjatrader, but they do have Qunatower platform.

[little flint]

had bad experience, lags and outages with topstep.

[old crow]

I have lifetime license for NT, haven’t used it in over 7-9 years

[proper wing]

gosh 9 years, things have changed a lot. They acquired "Tradovate" , I have lifetime license

[proper wing]

oh really, i think that was few weeks back, i think they have fixed it

[little flint]

yeah they bought tradovate and they did that 80% off and since then shit went sideways. they took off tradovate x tradingview integration

nah had lag 2 days ago so i gave up on them

blew the account fuck it

got it for like 20 bucks or something

• their rule of your highest profit can't be more than 50% of your target sucks

[proper wing]

i signed up this morning.

[little flint]

what i like about them is the 1k daily dd rule (idk if that applies on the 100k account or is higher?)

[proper wing]

hope they are not messing up with the account

[little flint]

they killed revenge trading

[proper wing]

It's 2k daily loss limit, and they will lock your account for the day if you hit the limit, but you still can trade the next day untill you don't hit the max drawdown

for 100K

[little flint]

i mean, the monthly comes up in like 9 days i might renew it if their issues got resolved. customers were getting emails "you broke the rule you're out" from funded accounts, i had a day where my daily profit was doubled and i broke the 50% rule profit (they fixed it though)

but shit like this can't really happen in a 15 years company you know what i mean?

[proper wing]

AGREE.

[little flint]

ok i get it you gave 80% off and loads of folk joined but c'mon

[proper wing]

What prop fund do you recommend

[little flint]

apex does this every month and they're 4yrs old or so

[proper wing]

based on your exprience

[little flint]

i just started futures a month ago and i got an apex 50k last thurs evening, did the target on the next day lol

i do/did forex until last month when i touched futures for the first time

90% off so i got it for like $18 or so. they have 50% off now i think but no doubt they'll get back to 80/90% off

@tame socket is your man

[tame socket]

Today is Friday

They will push 90

I’m sure

[little flint]

[tame socket]

YWS

Yes

105$

Per month

Or 160$ permanent

[little flint]

that for NT i guess?

can you pay 1 month and then after 2-3 months get perma? in case i blow it and give up 😂 😂 😂

or @old crow can give me his NT

[tulip pagoda]

I was going to ask about funded accounts. I actually don’t know anything about them

[hidden moss]

251 green pips, not bad, happy that 3 min Strategy of Short-term Autopilot with Strong signal is working on NASDAQ. Very GOOD, LUXALGO, THANKS! Finally got 1 good strategy from YOU! Micky and everybody else who works for LUXALGO, respect and thanks! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Almost !!!

[tame socket]

[tulip pagoda]

Who should I use.

And how does it work. I’m simple terms

[little flint]

it depends what you trade. forex or futures but we can grab a chat after my dota game

[tulip pagoda]

Mostly FX. Some futures

[little flint]

if mostly FX i'm with MFF. they don't allow futures. for futures i'm with apex but some people are with topstep

[tame socket]

Apex is best

With topstep you will lose if u r not pro trader at all

They strict like hardboard

Harvard

[little flint]

for mff you pay a fee (based on the acc size) and you need to reach a profit target(step 1 and step 2). you trade a demo account.

[tulip pagoda]

Am I able to do both with any of these programs?

Or should I just take winning from one and out in my personal account ti do the other? Lol

[little flint]

MFF forex will be MT4 or MT5, apex you can do tradovate/ninja trader/rithmic etc

[tulip pagoda]

Oh. How does that work? If I’m not funding it, how do I earn money?

[little flint]

my game started so brb

[orchid crescent]

Highly interesting, thanks.

[tame socket]

10 min till live

[hidden moss]

Not scalping. Luxalgo strategy is different, I am watching, not using it yet. Its Short-term Autopilot + Strong signal only for 3 min Nasdaq.

Banks target now is 4596, then they`ve got their 3rd 100 pips from New-York session. 🙂 Like I said! Exactly!

They might shoot up another 100 pips....

4696 destroyed, taken out... :-). Banks taken 4 x 100 pips. It`s easier to trade or scalp when you know your EXACT targets!!!

[old crow]

Love this

I dont think I have seen NQ alot from you

[hidden moss]

watched for 11 years, bound to stay something between 2 ears. 🙂

[old crow]

@tame socket Good job again!

[proper wing]

ES with updated chart level. Look at Box-5

[proper wing]

I know there are so many indicators out there which will save time, but I like to draw it manually. Do you know why I do this ?

[hidden moss]

4x 100 pips, New-York session. 4556 >4656, 4596>4696, 4696>4596 and 4596>4696. Thats how Banks always do it, each time target is 100 pips. If we could create an indicator or strategy similar to this, would become very rich in no time. Unfortunately we don`t have INFO what they have, they are main marketmakers ! 🙂

[naive blade]

banks dont trade lol

you realize 90%+ of orders are done via computers right

[fallow lichen]

Humm so im looking at the Premium & Disocunt Zone in the Price Action Indicator and realizing that it may not be plotting the last swing points correctly unless it plotting based on something else

NQ last 15 min swing is 15018 to 14609 but PAC has it at 15334 to 14609

[old crow]

Can you send a screen shot? many interpretations on where to use anchor points to mark the most mid swing structure

[fallow lichen]

im not sure if these are the last swings points

[old crow]

im not on my PC now, but looks good to me, can you zoom out more so i can see more of the left chart price action?

This is mine

Hold on

I may have wrong contract

[fallow lichen]

I wonder is it because 15018 level pulled back up enough

[old crow]

Don’t mind the yellow line, my experiment earlier

Yup look’s perfect

Yours is perfect

Many different interpretations of where to mark the anchors. So if you are comparing PACs to another 3rd party, it may differ

[fallow lichen]

im going back to plot the market structure out again, wasnt using any other indicators

[proper wing]

Here is my settings. I try to adjust/tweak based on the market condition:

@old crow how can we add these settings to my strat section at the begining

[old crow]

Post these images in your forum post, and I will pin it, as I already pinned the main post strat

[proper wing]

Oh, i just posted some chart under the forum

we are thinking alike. 😇

What I meant was LuxAlgo's algorithms may have a different interpretation on where to mark the mid swing points for the Prem/Disc zones compared to another 3rd partys version. There is no right or wrong version on where to start the anchor points

[old crow]

can you repost all those imags on one post so I can just pin one post, there's alot of individuals posts for each image

[fallow lichen]

im tracking what you are saying im just checking to see if it is right based on standard market structure

[old crow]

OK cool...

[proper wing]

You mean, Copy and paste all images in one shot. Let me see if It works

[old crow]

yup, it works that way too

just like you did above, you added 2 images in one post

now you can add all your images

to one post

[proper wing]

Can you check in the forum, i think I created many images but I had to paste individually

Done

All day and scalp traders, I have added more strategy to my original strat: Check the pro-strat channel: #1136141821404258334 message

[dawn stag]

Anyone know why options trading is deemed really risky and compelx and you have to be 21 for some browkrs to verify you?

[tulip pagoda]

@tame socket you mind telling about your opinion on different funded accounts?

[old crow]

Options are a derivative of the actual stock and the feds dont guarantee the options. And very complex short term vehicles that can really do damage as time progresses in a short period of time. There's more to it, than buy low and sell high. Not to say you cant be profitable, but you need to bring your A-Game here. Lets ask the expert @deep trout and other can chime in as well.....

[sterile cosmos]

Hey folks! I'm back after a small break. Big update to the strategy posted today. Hope you enjoy. #1133513574791270532 message

[old crow]

NICE, I just pinned the new update post too

[dawn stag]

Ah ok ill be waitin for more info

[rocky nova]

Hello @old crow I hope everything is well. I really enjoy your strategy discussions during the live YouTube streams. I just would like to ask you a question regarding the 4h charts that you demonstrated: Do you also treat an Equilibrium zone as an order block? Such that if price retests that zone, would you still consider executing a trade on a lower timeframe? Or do you hold off until price visits an official order block?

[old crow]

For me, if an OB is near and next to the equilibrium, or overlapping it, yes, I view this and trade this as I would an OB, but the equilibrium makes it that much more a significant OB.

[old crow]

Also remember, the equilibrium is the 50% fib level of the recent mid swing structure, with premium and discount being the anchor points. So at times, you will see price exhausted in these mid fib levels for possible retracement before continuation. For me, I like the 50-80% fib area for pullback areas....

Lets say there are multiple OB's scattered around, and its is very difficult to know which OB will be "THE One." So what you can do is draw your FiB levels from the anchor points, to see which OB's fall within your Fib level sweet spot, and that will be your OB to trade around it.....

[rocky nova]

Thank you for your feedback, @old crow. I will keep this in the mind for the future. May I ask which Fib tool on TV do you use?

[old crow]

Give me a second and ill post an example what I am describing....

[rocky nova]

Take your time - no worries. 🙂

[old crow]

@rocky nova Now look at this, I turned on the Prem/Disc Zones on this same chart for this current swing structure.
I also drew my Fib sweet spot levels 50-79%, look where price stalled, exhausted and trying to turn back down? In my 50-79% Fib sweet spot, and in the PAC Premium Zone, and a 15m OB.

• Now hopefully you can see how the PAC Premium/Discount zones can be utilized
• So now, you dont need to draw your manual Fib levels, just use PAC Premium/Discout Zones for this same technique

( I would had turned on the Prem/Disc Zones on the first example on the left side of the chart, but unfortunately, I am not able to plot previous Prem/Disc levels as these are designed to be fluid as price makes new H/L's)

@rocky nova Hope this makes sense, probably more info than you were asking for?

[rocky nova]

Wow. Such a great and detailed analysis. I love it! You definitely taught me something new.

[old crow]

At some point I’ll add this to the Pro Strategy forum

Also you can use a FVG as well in relation to the Prem/Dis levels, like we just did with OBs

[rocky nova]

I just have one more question for you tonight. Just to clarify something: When price is either uptrending or downtrending between order blocks on the 4h timeframe, would you still execute trades on a lower timeframe that aligns with the trend or do you wait until price reaches the next order block and shows signs of rejection / bounce off the next order block?

I know that in your live YouTube video, you stated that you would only execute trades when price is retesting an order block or breaking out on the 4h timeframe - and would never execute trades if price is ranging within / inside an order block. I am not sure if I heard you mention your strategy when price is moving between OBs.

[old crow]

OF course you can, as that is probably the basic rule of trading top down, multi TF's charts, trade the lower TF in the direction of a higher TF. The reason why I have my 4H OB template, is that I like to make the plays when price is at a 4H OB. So many set ups on a PAC chart, I just like to limit the ways, down to 1 or 2, and just trade price when breaking out or retesting an OB.

The purple circle you drew, yes, on a lower TF like 15m or 5m, trade those micro measured moves down, trade those bearish market structures down until you reach your TP, which could be a 4H OB as TP

[gritty kite]

Nice one

[old crow]

• So many ways to skin a cat
• So many conceptual strategies on a PAC chart
• I just like to be focused on one concept, breaking out or retest of a 4H OB.

You may like to just focus on scalping those small measured moves from 4H OB to the next 4H OB, on a lower TF

[rocky nova]

That definitely makes a lot of sense. Love how you break down all of your points in a simple and conceptual way.

I will definitely be attending the next live stream you will be in via Discord / YouTube. You are such an inspiration to many members here. 🙂

Imagine having 3x1000 piece jigsaw puzzles of completely blue sky, added to a chopping blender, blended and jumbled up into 1 pile. Now seperate all those apart and assemble them. That's how I view the last 3 years of trying to understand trading. Finally feel like something significant has clicked. It's cost me a lot. But, it's totally worth it.

Safe trading folks. Wear a stop loss

[glossy matrix]

@old crow do you have any strat for ranging market?

[old crow]

My 4H OB strat. I don’t trade inside these big OBs

Welcome!

@ocean pivot You all situated with the Premium indicators? Also check out these to get started #🧠core-lessons #📈must-watch and #1128499789437354106 where LuxAlgo and members have been posting their strategies with settings and set-ups

[ocean pivot]

Not yet. I watched a few videos. I'm about to start working through it. I literally just started trading earlier this week. Figured my money is better spent on this rather than losing it in the market making rookie moves.

[old crow]

Cool, we are all here to help if you need....

[ocean pivot]

Thank you!

[native jolt]

Can anyone please tell me, what is the best settings for sessions by luxalgo?..I want to use it with CHOCH

And how can I use it in NIFTY and Banknifty.

Hi Can anyone suggest
using Lux Algo indicators, I am interested in creating a custome strategy in pine script so that I can deploy the strategy in overall in the Tradingview and use it for backtesting in tradingview also.

Given the fact luxalgo is just an indicator, so in my pinescript while coding, how do I integrate luxAlgo indicator within it so that when in one click I deploy the strategy lux Algo indicator also gets through with the same?

[gritty kite]

No such thing as best settings for a particular stock/ forex/ crypto. Everybody develops their own settings based on their style and temperament. Some users have shared their strategies on https://discord.com/channels/641770286638694402/1128499789437354106 for everybody else to benefit

[gritty kite]

Have fun Micky

[old crow]

Hi and welcome....This is possible, as some members are implementing this on their own. I would think they will chime in soon to give you pointers on this...

Anyone trading with luxtrading prop firm?

[undone sequoia]

[little blade]

Which one is the Broken Uptrendline alert in this scenario please ? : https://prnt.sc/lV77_K7Q35V_ Thank you

[old crow]

The TrendLine feature is not displayed on your chart. Your arrows on your chart are just pointing to a candle wick.

https://docs.luxalgo.com/lux-algo-premium-indicators/lux-pa/liquidity

[little blade]

umm ok. So the dotted line or the top line cannot be alerted on ?

[old crow]

That dotted line is the midline of an order block. You will not be able to get alerted on the actual candlestick that the OB is formed at since it takes about 4 bars to trigger the algo to plot the OB 3-4 bars before. But you can set the alert as a condition level when price comes back to revisit the OB

[undone sequoia]

is there an alert for candle color change @old crow ?

[odd jay]

Can you tell me what is the ideal approach to this? Because while coding the pinescript i need to enter the indicator code as well if I am not wrong. In such case as your indicator source code is protected. How do I code my pinescript so that without needing your code my strategy can use your indicator in the script and include it as part of my startegy.

Also I see the indicators have red and green locks what does they mean?

[dry rover]

So you want to use a premium code that LuxAlgo’s team has been working hard on in a strategy that you want to deploy for free in tradingview ?

[odd jay]

No

I don't want to deploy free on trading view

I want to create a custom strategy for private use of mine using other indicator as well as lux algo indicator too and combining them i want to create a custom strategy for myself

[weak acorn]

hola

[candid salmon]

Use the external sources available from the indicators in your strategy. Just so that others are aware, you would need to have subscription access to the indicators to do this in any case, so nothing is "for free".

[little blade]

Thanks @old crow . And the Top line which is the Strong high cannot be alerted on either ?

[tulip pagoda]

@tame socket I was trying to figure out my strat. And sense you do the same thing as me, but your better. I figure I’d ask you what you think.

So say you get a Choch, without a recently created or a valid FVG, but price still dips. Do you look to enter on the next honored FVG or do you enter when prices breaks the recent structure of the choch?

[tame socket]

Exactly, called advanced entry, riskier but not by much. Also I showed this exact trade yesterday on Live stream here on Lux with everyone

[tulip pagoda]

@tame socket Yea I caught the ending of it. I was rushing to try and get on bc I wanted to catch it. It was good stuff

How to avoid blue percent over lapping

[old crow]

can you show me settings? do you have OBs overlapping?

[old crow]

Oh my 4H template.
How many PACS did you enable/visible on the chart?

[worthy veldt]

I make it same your setting in live

[old crow]

OK let me see my AUD/USD on 4H

[old crow]

I see 2 PACs enable on your chart, can you show me the other settings?

[worthy veldt]

This OB by chart

[old crow]

OK, this is perfectly fine and normal the way I use these charts with multiple PACS
You had a 4H PAC OB
and a 1H PAC OB, on same chart

These OB's will overlap, and the metrics/percentage will overlap
This is fine and this is what I want to see.
I want to see the overlaps
The overlap of OB's is important to me

If you do not like the overlap, Then you need to disable one of the PAC's

[worthy veldt]

👍got it

[old crow]

If you like the overlaps, but dont want to see the percentages overlap, then disable the metrics in settings

[old crow]

USD/JPY

Beautiful 4 HOUR CHART here

Wow, that's a seriously trending market. 📈📈📈

[strong zephyr]

Hi there

[strong zephyr]

3H chart I see bullish divergence

15m chart

As per order block is holding strong rejection matrix print reversal

So little confuse about trend direction as money flow still active with trash hold

Heineken Ashi chart for same pair

1H chart with 3H Order Block

Money flow turning up its a good reversal sign

Please suggest @old crow

[old crow]

I will have to go to my desktop as I cant really analyze with phone screen shots, I need to see the whole picture and not a piece. Get me a few moments.

@strong zephyr You have 3H and 15m regular candlesticks charts and then you have 3H and 1H HA candles charts. So which 2 charts your actually trading with? For me, this is confusing as they each tell a story and most likely, you and I will be confused. I will bring up Nifty on my on 2 charts and analyze what I see on my charts.

Here's BankNifty on 3H regular candlesticks with PAC and Matrix

I would like to buy low and sell high, so on a lower TF, I would like to see price above equilibrium, in premium zone, to look for a short.
Price on 3H is in Discount, so in theory, I will only look for shorts on lower TF's in premium zones.

Hope this helps

What did you need done? for journaling your backtests?

[ocean pivot]

Whats the best broker to use for buying indices like this? Tradestation and others ive looked into dont support a lot fo the stuff you guys talk about.

[young sand]

@ocean pivot has earned the Lux Level 1 role!

LukeR just levelled up! 🍪

Welcome to LuxAlgo Level 1! Here is a cookie for contributing into the LuxAlgo community. Keep it up & thank you for being with us! <3

[ocean pivot]

fuck yeah. Level 1. Lets go.\

[old crow]

Just depends where you live and what brokers support your country and what they are allowed to offer per your countries regulations. For USA, Tradestations provides me with all the Futures assests, and Oanda provides all the Forex pairs.

[old crow]

And cookie for you

🍪

[ocean pivot]

Cool, I'll have to look into Oanda.

[sterile cosmos]

Yea, I'm looking to calc a RR factor.

[old crow]

found this somewhere long time ago

not sure if this helps, maybe too basic, i guess you can add more columns and maybe adjust the formula etc?

(meanwhile let me go back to my HA studying)

[sterile cosmos]

that looks ok?

[old crow]

I mentioned alot of times that I watch and rewatch LuxAlgo videos over and over to find clues that I have maybe missed before.
Same with videos, I stare at the charts, over and over again, until I see a clue that I may have missed before.
So this is what I saw now with my HA template.
Interesting...

So now, I can use this conceptual clue, with my LuxAlgo PAC 4H HA OB strategy

(dont mind me, Im thinking out loud while I go through this exercise)

[sterile cosmos]

the question is,,,, how can you trade that live.

[old crow]

Now with my 4H OB strat, with HA patterns, we just might have something

Retest rejection of these 4H HA OBs, the HA patterns could validate the trade direction

[old crow]

Just like any other strat your testing out, no different really

Over Lapping HA wicks gives me a clue, just like overlapping OB's

Lets rephrase this.
Over lapping HA wicks, may be a early clue of a trend change.

[sterile cosmos]

whattcha backtesting Micky?

Mine is painfully slow backtesting this evening

[old crow]

just visually looking at my HA charts on several pairs to find consistency of this wick pattern Im seeing

[sterile cosmos]

excellent, do you catalog the findings?

[old crow]

heck no

I just wing it

LOL

Im not a r/r number formula kind of trader, as price does what it wants to do, for me, I want to see consistency visually on different pairs, thats ll im looking for

[sterile cosmos]

gottcha... although I was never a stats guy, since I have started this journey I find myself wanting to gain confidence by backtesting the f$*k out of things.

In the end, its all trade management after you enter

in the end, it's all psychological

My brain is chewing on this thing most of the day, but it provides some incredible things.... thanks brain.

[old crow]

A trader that enters against the trend with better trade management, will be more successful, than a trader that trades with the trend, without any sound trade management - Think about this 🤔

[sterile cosmos]

Define trade management.... following a plan?

[old crow]

Know when to say its over, cut your losses, or check your greed, trade humbly, no bag holding. Ending the day with a small loss and not trying to get one more trade for a huge win, so you can boast everywhere....

Anyway, back to the charts I go, LOLLLLL

hi good morning Micky
For someone who wants to start trading for the first time, which strategy do you recommend? Thank you for your help

[old crow]

⛈️

[old crow]

Morning, good question. What comes easy for you to visually interpret on the charts? Trending moving average color types like Signals and Overlays? or SMC, ICT market structure such as LuxAlgo Price Action Concepts?

[random sail]

I know you don't suggest that I work in scalping in the lower time frame, but I am interested in scalping with the price action concept of order block. but in lower TF

Which one you think is easier to start with? Price action signal concept or whatever

[old crow]

This LuxAlgo PAC strategy is pretty good on lower TF’s #1130856420703735849 message

[random sail]

thank you ❤️

[sterile cosmos]

That's THE question right!? Depends on your personal style and psychology

Do you have a fear of loss, does your brain function well under stress... are you looking for a purely mechanical strategy.... or more discretionary , these are some very important things to understand about you as a person.

[random sail]

You are absolutely right, thank you

[late blade]

I start 3 funded 100ks tomorrow and I'm so nervous, can anyone recommend any last minute studying?
