oh nice..... do you watch those fake realtors story at multixxx? 🤣 ....just joking
ha
I am looking at BU
check those big drops and currently it is ranging
possible big moves coming
so either way....prepare to enjoy the ride
don't be a Hodl'er
just ride it out, get out when you can, as they always say >>>>TP when happy, do not be Greedy
what drew the yellow range zone box?
PAC zig zag zone?
how did the yellow box extend to the future if that is the zigzag zone box?
I drew it
Aaahhhhhh.
waiting for this mate, will ride it again
Im routing for you ‼️
Hi guys. Please tell me some good and proven binary options broker
Hi guys. I am a beginner. Anybody tell me the best and relatable Forex exchange?
*reliable.
would u guys recommend really volatile or rather stable pairs?
like my argumentation is that high volatility means higher margin, but more risk
and stability lower risk, but lower margins
abc 123 hh hl lh ll bos choch
how mate, pls explain
Because @full condor does not use an oscillator in his strategy... It's only price action... But i don't think that the MACD would be a bad choice tho... It can help you avoid the little consolidation that sometimes forms at an order block before the price starts to move...
For example, in case of a bullish order block, instead of enter right away even with a red MACD, you wait for the MACD to cross and turn green, then you enter
Hello gentleman. I'm looking for a good strategy config on Forex for the backtesting system.
30 min+ time frame
Contrarian Mode ON
For a buy:
Smart trail bearish
Trend catcher bearish
For a sell:
Smart trail bullish
Trend catcher bullish
Take profit with the exit
interesting. What I'm currently testing is this..
@brittle compass has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
I'll check out your config. thanks UGG.
these are the results from updating UGG..
I might have something wrong. can we compare config with your screensshot?
I'll ping you my results when i'm on my pc, don't worry... I used 5 min and gbpjpy for the test... Got an 88%.. but it doesn't mean much in my opinion
ah i get what you mean ...
on the 5min it makes more sense.
What is the better approach for consistent gains if the 5min doesn't mean much?
I have ALWAYS used bottom panel oscillators for confluence. It will be a total mind shift to look at potential areas for targets, and less on immediate precise action. not sure if this makes sense 🤣
ya man, need to study pac properly and try different settings, i use the oscillators already
i need to understand how people are nailing it, some amazing profits shared in #💰share-profits
Exactly, how are these people stealing huge gains. Crazy unreal. I am still happy with my 5-10 pips a day, and nothing wrong with that. But I will try and learn this PAC as well
Sup fam I was out on a trip for thanksgiving so wasn’t too active here this weekend , just seen some middle fingers shot at me 🤣 @echo kiln
🖕
🤣
you posted some crazy wins !!!
Lol 😂 they added the emoji crazy
PAC is the way to go , I’ll share some setups and trades I’ll be taking this week
i am interested to see them too @terse haven 🙏
I am the student NOW
learning should never stop
Does anyone know how to setup alerts for smart trail?
I haven’t tested the alerts on smart trail but maybe this will work
Mine are pretty similar on the 5 min, so you used the right settings
I'm not saying the 5 min doesn't mean much... The backtester doesn't mean much... For example, in your setup you have the tracer bullish and trend strenght with the contrarian mode... So it means that now you must do the opposite to get those results... So, from now on you will start to buy when the tracer is bearish, with no stop loss, close when the tracer turns bullish and viceversa?
I don't think so... Even with my version, where i have used the inverse of the contrarian to get those results... I will not buy on bullish and hold with no stop until it turns bearish
Don't focus much on the backtester, for now has no utility for me
Yeah man, we would love to see them👌
@livid compass that would work, make sure to use "once per bar close"
I am not against any oscillators or other indicators....if that helps you...by all means use it..... What matter most is to stay profitable but we must stay consistent as well with proper RRR. Let's aim to have winning formula that even our win ratio is low yet our profit is sustainable..... I would take 5 wins 5 loss if my profit is up by 60% than 8 wins 2 loss then my profit is only about 35%
My suggestion is to prioritize Swing Structure over Internal (this needs tons of patience which I do see lacks in almost all cases here). And never enter right away, when OBs are created, well you can't anyway since there is no alert currently for that unless you're eyes glued to your chart. Use Limit order over Market Order / Stop Order. This will help you battle that emotion sides of trading.
I mean isn't much clearer
and do take note that OBs will be created few candles after, why? it needs data for calculation and confirmation....as the way PAC setup >>>>> OBs doesn't repaint
let say you want to trade the upper right zone (Wed - Fri)
then check the LTF (maybe m5 or m15) for your sniper entry
you will see that price will retrace and you will have a better entry than placing a market order
i think you can man, this is from the call function, to set the alert
there is no OBs alert when created
OBs alert currently triggered when mitigated
likewise it will be nice when price candle is fully crossed above or below the TL zone when it trigger the alert and not when price is still within TL zone
I commented previously on this, you can get alerted when ob are created trough swing structures
I will check on that but haven't received any alert of that nature since day v1.0 on H1 timeframe
for this play, are you waiting for price to hit strong high OB on 1hr, for a short entry, using m5 BOS to down side for sniper short?
Structures alerts should be working as expected, maybe you have set for swing structures, which can take a while to be created
appreciate your response, I will post it once I have any OBs alert on Swing Structures, pretty sure there will be OBs on H1 this week. Do note that Alert are setup for 20 assets
not bragging just sharing....but using PAC alone with pending orders....it really help my trading
Alert was maximised
@terse haven @azure lake thank you!
These are all the function I called for alert
for all 20 assets? dam your computer will send those piercing TV alerts every 2 minutes 🤣
yes i said piercing
i wish i could change the TV alert sound, or I dont know how to
I turn off the play sound on alert setting, turn on your push notification as you posted and just hook up pipedream on webhook for my TG channel shared with my son and cousins
I still haven't received any push notif though TG send those push notif 🤣 and not TV
😁
didnt se that pull down menu 🤣 🙏
lolz, then I guess you haven't explore that email to sms alert
I def know about that 🤣
you cannot test them tho... Must wait for an actual alert 🤷♂️
how would you play a trade on your 2 charts you posted? short once it hits Strong High H1 ?
AH HA, i know something you dont, you can test it, click the button
place pending limit order using price levels on LTF (m5)
create?
whats the target?
wait let me ss
yes alert sound
fuck... It's a play... Looks like an arrow 
maybe 1st target is first green OB below?
yes short
Do u watch Metekaplan
no mate, but he got lot of subs in YT though
I love reading so each weekend I wait for WellsFargo analysis for macro approach
Ok. I get what you're saying. There's limitations to the back tester as a strategy working in the real word in any time frame. Aside from that what is a good starting point on the 30 minutes settings for the buy/sell signals on Forex. There's always going to be a stop loss when operating in the live account of course.
What has utility for you.
Yeah I saw that. Unfortunately @compact willow didn't include the settings rather just the results.
He's using the MACD as external. It would be much easier to just to take a screenshot of the configuration
also when going short, where do you place limit order? bottom of OB? top OB? or mid level OB?
#💬hangout message
read from then on
i want to master the PAC way 😁
ok. Seal posted in other channels too. thanks.
lolz..... you got no patience....hahaha ✌🏻
he only added an external indicator, the rest is algo
1.) that's where I will place pending limit order....either of the 2 lines
2.) thats where will I place my SL, just above the zone
from my link to down, just someone asks him about the settings and other indicator
then I let it run, let Ms Market goes where she needs to go....just activate TSL when you can, and how you want it to be
if you let it run and perhaps you activate either TP or TSL
you will get at least 100 pips or more in 2 days
or more than a day staying in trade
got it
unless you have a trigger point or bias in the upswing.....I wouldn't trade it
I will wait until it hit my zone on the upside to place another short position
whats your TP below? green OB's? or hard target pips?
I mean here
TP when happy 😊 mate 🤣
better not... he's happy too soon 😂
yep, that's what i mean
you guys have to confidence in me 🤣 👀
TP is future......I can't really say where I want to TP........ that is why I do have TSL and BE activated. But initially I do set TP 25 - 100 pips if doing intraday.....depends on what levels I see
yupp we do have so much confidence in you and we are confident you lack patience my friend 🤣
i would say tsl if you have time to watch during the trade... or set a line alert every 30 pips maybe... then you watch the action and decide
oh this is interesting, never activated alert on price level
agree, depending on the asset, as each pair has it own eb and flow, my TSL could be about 20-25 pips
nice, 3 trades, and you know 1 of them will be a winner to ride out the 2 small losses
learned the hard way via FTMO😂
you do PAC meaning Patience, Assess, Contrive 😂
think of it that way... when you catch a 100 pip move, risking 1% on a 10 pip sl, you can lose 7 trades in a row and still be 30% in profit... (just using convenient numbers for my example)... am i wrong? @full condor
I just went through Seals complete post. It's very incomplete. I doubt anyone could replicate it
Please don't do that buddy 😂 , don't make 7 losing trades in a row
10 pip SL is kinda tight 🤣
ahaha i would never
not so tight
but seriously, when waiting patiently for price to hit your level.....you will reduce greatly your losing trade
if you get an entry close to the OB the stop will be small 🔥
10 pips SL, sometimes work as seen on this
CADJPY
no screenshot of the config panel i dare say it's probably fake
by the time you knew it, your SL is already in positive zone
it could be true, give the benefit of the doubt, maybe ask the guy directly....
Yeah. it could be. A bit obscure post. Oh, the guy is german that explains something.
but do take back test results not to be your holy grail. Actual trading are confronted with so many factors
what panel man? he uses neo cloud, trend catcher and ultimate macd... all lux algo
then adds the supertrend and that other indicator called subhag gosh, settings below
I'm telling ya, we are gonna change the nick before Christmas... yours will be PriceAction_2, mine PriceAction_3, mark my word
also, do take note that some crosses vs majors do have the tendency of having larger spreads on low liquidity hours
@full condor before this PAC update, how was your strategy?
SupDem, VPs, Wyckoff and I do have box automation via cTrader which identify range but after few candles so I placed my trades after few candles (dip/rally) already. But always, always will not enter the current candle, will placed around the opening of current candle
ahahaha
I am looking on some of my bases, as I we didn't killed the fortress , hahaha
so it seems this PAC is much simplier than your previous strats?
VP could come in handy with PAC, maybe? confluence with OB's
oh man, make my life way way more easier.....imagine all those automation done for you
it filters out some shit for you i guess
VPs is nice, as long as you read it properly.....you need to have footprints as well when using VPs
and VPs is boring.....hahahaha...you will not last a week, I can imagine
if you want to study indicators, try to check for NNFX....you do not follow his suggestion but rather will give you some ideas
do you know that thing?

after watching him....it convince me further to stay in my comfort zone hahahahahaha
oh man do not show this to @echo kiln hahahaha
🦋
but on trade watch note.... let's wait for BU big move and ride the trend
definitely not ☠️
i think Lux has some sort of indicator that shows inner candle crap, ill need to look for it
wait let me check how to do that
are you into crypto?
not I am not trading actively crypto...if ever I enter a trade it will be just for BU
maybe from there
TBH, I do not know up to now what catalyst to watch for bitcoin
do you hold some?
don't mate.... EM can be a catalyst, or some hackers...or Ecuador 😂
too much variable
the least you can expect
i will expand... some Ray Dalio shit, some Warren crap, some dividend stocks... you know 😁
DIVERSIFY!!!!!
yas
and here as well
I bought this and hodl for 45 days
bought 27 and sold too soon at 34.50....went up as high as 36....well as they say "TP when happy" 😂
dang man, that's nice
When you get the alert for BOS/CHoCH that will be your alert for a new OB as that’s when they’re created
not really mate.... do be very careful on this..... they are different thing
oh didn't catch that reply..... cheers
Today has been a great tutorial for me using PAC. Thank you.
Another indicator I like using (which is now in the LuxAlgo legacy indicator), is “predictive SR” (setting 2). Many times it predicts where the OB will be and if you have a SR line in an order block it is a good set up for a limit order for a price reaction.
Awesome!!!! keep it coming guys!!!
I am like Micky here- just trying to pick up my daily 10 pips! 😂 I would love to capture more and get all my pips for the week with a big move. But I have been burned too many times where my 10 pip profit has reversed on me.
we must have strength.....
I really do like the muted bars now, makes you focus on important levels and areas, as oppose to be numb to trend bar colors 🙏
WE MUST FIGHT FOR 5-10 PIPS
OMG
ALL PIPS ARE CREATED EQUALS
"BB Breakout Lux" have a look at this indicator, dont discount the free Lux tools, you may find what your looking for, sssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh
damn you are contagious 😂
hey guys i just joined to premium i need some help like what is the good indicator to trade forex and what is tha good setup to trade ?
Try to use the liquidity sweeps, significance 10... I turn it on and off so it doesn't clutter my chart... When a sweep coincide with an order block (very often), it's like a wall... You can be damn sure that the price will bounce and not break through
Interesting
The significance 10 shows only the big ones and they coincide almost perfectly with the swings order blocks... From there, the move will be much bigger than from an internal order block only
Looks simple. I like simple 🦋
Yeah, i mean for someone looking for a rule based strategy, it looks like a solid setup, that's all
You are with a foot into PAC, so it's not for you... Keep adjusting your layout, this will be a week of 🔥
Don’t worry, I have 2 TV layouts ready to go. My original scalp layouts and my new PAC layout
But I do have a more open mind and underdog PAC now, we shall see. I’m thinking, if this is what I want, I can make it work profitable for me, no question
If you randomly give me a few indicators, I can study them and mix and match and come up with a good strategy. Always
The question is, would I like it and trade it everyday. Does it fit my style….that’s the key
Yeah, that's one point... The other one is what are the differences? Time spent trading, profits per trade, ecc.
When you have more strategies that works for you, you must compare them and see which one returns the most with the least time invested... More living, less trading
I think I know that answer 🤣 and thats why I have the PAC layout ready to go. I will not fail at this‼️
😎
Thanks for this! Looks great. Do you look for liquidity sweeps on higher TF initially?
where do you adjust to 10 for liq sweeps?
oh in legacy, i was looking in the PAC, so you have the liq sweeps turned off in Pac and use legacy liq swep?
There are no more sweeps in the PAC... They are in the legacy now... Add the legacy, and turn on the swings, lux profile and the sweeps to 10... You don't have to use it all the time... It's an ON - OFF indicator for me, so it doesn't make a mess on the chart
oh ok, in Pac they have Liq Grabs, but no settings
As of now, i have the order blocks alerts on, but i have not been able to test them yet... The plan is to get an alert, open the chart, see the order block, turn on the legacy with the sweeps and see
If the alerts don't work for some reason, the plan is exactly as you said... Watch the 1H timeframe every candle close (just some minutes every hour), when you get an order block, check with the legacy and then drop the timeframe for the entry... The 5 min will be the best for day trading... If you don't mind to swing trade and hold a position for maybe 2-3 days, you can enter on the 1H without problems
so you personally trade with 2 charts, 1H & 5m ?
have a 3rd muddy's the brain? and 1H 5m is good enough?
Two is enough
I still mark my chart with S&R starting from the monthly... Just the main levels... But you do it once a month and done... After that, the 1H for the big picture and the 5 min for the actual trade...
As @full condor said, if you don't want to stare at the 5 min chart to catch the next order block, you have to use the 1H... That way you can check every hour without missing the move
I dont hear too much about FVG's here in Lux? while everyone on gods earth outside of Lux treat it as gold. Thoughts?
I wouldn't say they're gold, but no one indicator is. Just another 5% of a larger puzzle.
hate puzzles, can never find that one piece 🤣
Hi all, quick question what would you say is the worst day to scalp forex, based on my analysis it's a Friday, any thoughts?
dang, crypto room getting heated, ill lurk in here 🤣
good question....tough to answer
currency in itself is range bound, as a countries currency $1 doesnt go to $1,000 in a day, and it doesnt go to $0 in a day. it pretty much holds its value give or take those range in pips....
so the key figuring out what those ranges are and see if you can take some of those pips with your own strat
so my answer to your question is, I dont know
🤣
Need some help with the price action premium. Im setting the volume inside the OB, in the buy/sell activity, the first box its for long volume and the second for shorts?
correct it shows buying/selling volume with the green/red bars
🤷
shhh, Luke is teaching his PAC in the vip room, come join
good morning 😊
Check chart for AU, NU or any commodities currency vs safe haven currency
there you will see gap opening, the very reason you don't want to leave open trades over the weekend
why there is gap opening right now?
Covid cases in China is getting worse, widespread protest ongoing. Russia / Ukraine war worsening again.
So how can we take advantage of this situation.... Use PAC to find for a "gap fill" that's need to happen😊
FVG is a must to know, that's the imbalances in the market you need to watch out for. As the LuxAlgo docs clearly stated, an imbalance created by this 3 candle sequence called FVGs are a possible magnet of price in the future.
So you can on/off this FVGs (this to lessen clutter in your chart) and maybe perhaps turn it to 30 for extend box and set mitigation to "NONE" so you can have reference for OLD FVGs.
Why I do not choose "always on" for FVGs if it is an important things to watch out for? I checked for them from time to time - take a note of possible FVGs that will be mitigated, but for me, there will be another tools within PAC that either will come up (OBs, BOS, CHoCH or other market structure tools) that eventually help me to trade "current" price action.
I just want to remarks on this
If EUR/USD moves from 1.1050 to 1.1051, that .0001 USD rise in value is ONE PIP, so imagine that 0.0001 is ONE PIP already, what more if Price says move to about 1.1151 - that's 100 PIPs already. Then imagine if you trade GBPs, these pairs moves in big pips movement.
But please stay away with exotic pairs 🤣
Ok overlap now, be back in a few
good to know👍
don't chase price or don't fret about this "gap filled" ...... but good to place some limit order now.... seems this will be an "exciting" Monday to trade
😊
SMH missed an easy divergence for AUD USD on 1 min TF could’ve done 1 to 20 RR with trailing SL
I always miss the best trade set ups
🥴
there always the next one...just reload and be ready 🚀
Yea 😕
your on a 1m chart, so be ready, should be another one soon...
92.3 AJ?
did you take any positions? im sitting on my hands for now in these over night hours...just watching my usdjpy as i am familiar with the eb and flows of that pair
yooooooooooooo g's just bought the premium indicators
welcome big R
yessuuurr
brand new to trading? or season vet?
no open positions yet but placed some limit
I would call myself new 😂 but I know the basics
I'm using an EA atm for funded accounts
but trying to focus more on manual trading now
nice, then your at home here
Yea saw the black friday deal 60% off bought it for 3 months
haha its part of the game
yeah mostly forex
any suggestions on which premium indicators to combine?
I for one is a nuisance 😂 , you will dislike more quickly than like me
go for PAC ------ FTW!!!
🤣
my initial analysis of usdjpy to the down side was correct before market open, but it didnt go up to fill in the above fvg's and the upper OB's on the 1H, i just tanked when the bell rang, dam
Placing a pending order before market resume will be a big mistakes
haha that one been profitable for you? i'm gonna check it otu
i was doing homework in the other room for @snow beacon
Gap will push your order above or below further thus missing your entry level
no trades, just analyzing
document it so we can easy to ready lolz.....
i posted my chart in there...
how long does it take before I can use the premium indicators? or is it immediately? it still says " this script is for invite-only "
should be realtime @mellow crystal
should be real quick, refresh TV?
delete indicators, refresh TV, and then favorite the indicators,
should be good from there...
if not send a chat in the vip support room
nice, FVG mitigated
yes, the green FVG, then it kept going, it didnt give a shit about the upper OB's and FVG's LOLLLL
its at weak low, discount on m5
I wish there is a "radio button" on chart where you can quickly "on/off" those tools 🙏🏻 🤣
not sure how i would correct this trade if I actually took buy position, to aim for the upper FVG's and OB's before heading down for the overall trend....
which one?
or I just eat it, and close it out for loss and wait
Y got it
the chart I posted, what if I took a long position to aim for the upper fvg's and ob's 1H
firstly, you do not trade the opening, wait until the 1st overlap
no way to correct it right? just take the SL, and move on?
that is a panic hour, no need to trade
i know dont trade open, i wanted to analyze the chart itself
ok so in normal hours, then you think my analysis would be good to take that buy trade?
so being that, you will see there's a nice OBs on 1st hour of overlap
can you post it here, so I do not switch to other channel 🙏🏻
mate, the first thing I would do TA wise, is to check HTF
during weekend
to gauge the trend
being that you will see that UJ is downtrend on H4
yes 4h was to the short side, but i was guessing that the 5m would go long to fill the fvgs, and ob's, before heading down
so with that notion, buying on the market resumes seems illogical
not on market opening mate, wait until market stabilise
ok if during normal London/NY session, for this instance, if you have a choch to the upside on 5m, would you take the long to fill the upper fvg's ob's? for a quick 50-80 pips?
in stock market, opening and resumes (after daily market recess) are considered to be panic hour
let say this is during London / NY sessions....I would give respect to PDH since you are reading the H1
yes agree, but i was saying, what if you had this same set up during regular mid session during london/NY
oh ok
the "bullish" choch there on H1, is that what you are talking?
there was a bullish choch and bullish bos on m5
m5 is your sniper entry mate...... take your trade / trend bias in H1 or H4
got it, thought maybe there could be a quick counter buy scalp first, then place a swing trade to the down side.......
ok ok, still learning how i can play this, i think i need to get rid of my old habits of scalp for a quick win and concentrate on the bigger picture
I would wait for Overlap, (remember I said awhile ago "Oh overlap be back in a bit")
next you will see a nice Swing OBs and Swing ChoCh there
ahhhhhhhhhh
then your limit order will be the average of that Int OBs
no way you can place a limit order on the Swing OBs unless you do market order
remember how they said that Swing OBs will be created when Swing ChoCh appear, on that arguments then no way to place a nice Limit order in last Swing Bearish OBs
👍
Do not trade Wellington and Sydney on its own alone....that's a very illiquid session
Overlap will be the best to trade, whether scalping, intraday or daytrading.....
1.) London / NY
2.) Tokyo / London
3.) Sydney / Tokyo
in that order.
So it means, change your work time 🤣 , and make sure you can work that overlap hours 😂
this is not a trade call, do not follow but you see where I placed my limit order for AJ
ok, the key for me, i should had waited for some move to the downside since 1H 4H were down trend, then on 5M, there was overlap of swing/internal OB's, and that alone should had told me to short this shit ‼️
indeed mate
in my other world of forex group, we used small m for minutes since M1 denotes Month
what are you seeing at 92.300?
im seeing empty waste land with no levels? LOLLLLLL
I use pepperstone as my source
it is close to my UK / Aussie Brokers LP
LP = liquidity providers
you got purple, that shit alone is telling you to go short....hahahaha...now you will not be able to place Long Position since you all see is Bearish price movement
🤣
AJ is the barometer for RORO
i know i know, my brain is still in the sniper scalp mode on m5 m1
since AUD is commodity currency and JPY is safe haven
AUD is the representative of CNH which stands for China Renminbi Offshore
long live Ming Dynasty!
And China as we all know is a manufacturing country hence commodity currency
so if there is trouble in China, then it affects AUD / NZD / CAD
commodity currencies
dang, had i had the AJ chart up, no question id be taking a short, FM
this week is jobs report week plus it is month end flows (rebalancing), will be lots of price movement
I still think downside to the USD, though there gaps need to be filled
MTD of USD is -5% (worst since 2010), so most likely indices will rally (SP500)
you will be ok with PAC, you will not blow your account for nth times 🤣
miss by 5 pips, urghh 😬
there is your 10pips quota @echo kiln , you should be done for today, 😂 🤣 😂
I never knew this, useful infomation
How do you get the time zones on your chart? Do you only take trades in those cross overs?
Just search for sessions on TradingView, quite a lot.
I would basically like to place trades on the overlaps (if permitted) but most of my trades are pending limit anyway.
of course best would be majors, but depends on your risk apetite
Try JPY crosses, they are quite good also
Just got the lifetime package last week. Any advice to newcomers (of the indicators)? Will be going trough all the official guides this week/today.
Welcome 🤝🤝🤝
The docs absolutely; best place to start; then luxAlgo YouTube
And Geckotrading
Thanks!
thanks for this awesome explanation, you and @snow beacon should be in the mentor team
are you using the PAC candle colours?
I am just a noob, and I serve to the pleasure of @echo kiln 😂
done 👍
how can i have a fx calendar of this sort?
so easy and nice visuals mate
from Vantage, one of my broker 🙂
can anybody help me for making good strategy for XAUUSD?
hi mate, quick question
at some point the price should cover the fvg at 10$ and 10.2?
My read is still bearish for today (gmt8)
it will eventually be filled, but need a push for it to be filled, so maybe not today
cheers matey
Good morning 
Good morning, afternoon or evening 😊
whats shaken peeps?
still over 100 pips for AJ for it to close the gap
need to watch this pair 🙂
GU was closed in 1 session only, hahaha
Do you guys use the opti-bot for signals sensitivity and agility or have a preferred setting? (trading the hourly mostly)
opti is more precise, but need to input everyday. Auto is set-it-and-forget-it, but maybe a little late on entries/exits but still good overall if higher tf's
I see thanks, if basing entries on the premium indicator, you mostly set S/L at the swing lows vs a fixed percentage S/L?
how is it going man? you're too quiet today 😁
the BB breakout looks really good 🔥
shhhhhhhhh
🤣
just enough smoothness to hang on.....
add it to your pac
already there 😏
enter on your pac trigger, and hopefully the BBB will take you for a ride to the next pac level
do y'all combine the pac indicator with other indicators?
for now, i think that the most consistent approach would be order block + enter with the trend catcher turning on the same direction... other than that, i don't know yet... an oscillator or the BBB
what about you?
as u know, im new to pac, so i need to learn it first before i start adding crap to my charts 🤣
Ye same, i'm just using the default pac settings atm
i think the catcher is the most useful element of the premium suite... so i'm tryin' to test if i can combine it with the PAC suite... all in test for now
we can't get into the non vip chat anymore?? or do I just can't find it
VIP is separate from public @mellow crystal yep!
we're special, no need for the public and the common folks there 🤣
looks good, I just need to remember and have strength to not muddy up my pac chart. if too muddy, then im back to my daily sniper targets, which is still not bad 🤣
yeah, i have only the catcher and the SSL (that's a topic for another day 😄 )
so this one bounced perfectly on the order block below and hit TP
for the trailing of the stop, we can use the order blocks of a lower timeframe
I love ssl
ssl? tell me more 🤣
what about overlaying the Lux Premium candle colors....
there ya go
🤣
nice, just slap the neo cloud on your pac chart, and call it a day
👀
or keep it simple, turn on pac candle internal colors, clean chart
yeah, man... it's elite 🔥
This script is designed for the NNFX Method, so it is recommended for Daily charts only.
Tried to implement a few VP NNFX Rules
This script has a SSL / Baseline (you can choose between the SSL or MA), a secondary SSL for continiuation trades and a third SSL for exit trades.
Alerts added for Baseline entries, SSL2 continuations, Exits.
Baseline ...
nice... share the code if you want man, i will save it as a script 👌
Hello everyone, I bought the indicators now. Who knows the best settings for gold?

thanks smack
no prob!
@past acorn are you guys working on a solution for the alerts on order blocks creation or it's not possible?
Good morning PAC’ers
It was mentioned that when ChoCh or BOS appears then OBs are created as well
Only for the swing ones?
Both
Correct
I have disabled the internal structure... I will enable it and check
Hello from downunder 😁 I am new here, and to Lux and been lurking and learning for a few days. Not a new trader, but had settled very nicely into FTX Futures, and yes well...... let's just say I am having to change directions completely now & given futures options are otherwise very limited for Aussie's I am delving into Forex. It's very different....trying to pass a funded account challenge. My favorite indicators just don't seem to work like they did with Futures. But now I have found Price Action coupled with Trend Catcher, I am optimistic. Thanks for everything I have learned on here, especially from @full condor Cheers 🫡
What TF mostly you are using in trading?
If you are trading like @echo kiln 😃, then SwOBs is good enough
5-10 pips a day keeps the dr away, but you need to make sure you are on point with your game....you dont want a bad day to wipe out your weeks work
Mostly 5 min for the entry and 1h or 15 min for a bigger picture
Welcome to the club of @echo kiln 😂
Pac Boys (and Girls)
The Packets
🤙
🤣
PACkets!!!
@full condor so, do you set alerts on 4h and 1h for bos and choch swing and internal?
Will be in trading mode in about 1.5 - 2 hours from now 😂
Tuesday PAC’ers, another great day to trade!!!!
What's your opinion on price action and time frames, how reliable on lower time frames? 15M is my favorite thus far as I am a scalper for the most part, but thinking of moving up to 30M.
Anything LTF (m15 and lower) @echo kiln is the master 😃
Thanks, question was for anyone in the know 🙂
@full condor I noticed you mentioned using trailing stop loss. Do you set these right from beginning of trade, or if price passes through an OB? What distance do you find works well or does it depend on pair?
@snow beacon will release some videos on scalping with pac on ltf
I have this cBot that runs on my trading platform that automatically handles my open trade. So I set BE when price is about 25 pips in profit, then TSL is moving when trade is about 15 pips in profit. so my trade line will jump when BE is triggered then TSL will resume from where BE left off.
I do scaling in/out as well but not manually....it has been handle by my cbot
a little fancy pants, huh❓
it is really helpful mate, try it
Great idea. I am using Pineconnector to send a range of closing alerts directly from Trading View to MetaTrader. With crypto I had an automation system set up using "Make" and webhooks. Another really clever and cheap way to filter alerts from an indicator is using Airtable. For example you could have a column for Bullish BOS and a column for Ob Mitigated, and a column for Trade Catcher Up. The alerts get sent via webhook from TV and change each column to true/false. Then the sheet can be set to send webhook to open trade on trading platform, only if all columns meet true. So kind of like creating an automated strategy from indicators. Then another sheet linked to the first one can automatically update open/closed trades/sl/tp etc. The possibilities are endless with automation haha. Just got to be really confident with the syst5em before letting ti run unsupervised.
smart, if I may add....focus on SwOBs, will make a difference
Thanks, I have noticed but not sure how many I get with 15M charts. Am I understanding correctly that OB's are essentially support/resistance points? And best entries will be when the price passes through the OB and then retests and bounces off? What if it breaks the order block and the just rapidly keeps going? These are more risky?
if it breaks thru OBs, then OBs is mitigated....... though I prefer SwOBs than IntOBs
Hey mate, you willing to share this?
Hello guys
What strategy do u use for Forex with LuxAlgo? I can’t finde none to work
🤦♂️
Order blocks are supply and demand. So yes behaves like support resistance but not by definition
How do you guys use the OB's for trading? Are you mixing it with any other Lux indicators?
Use swings and watch how price reacts off them. If they seem to be holding look for whatever you look for and long/short/close
I see, you mostly check the swingOBs and ignore the Int OBs?
Swing ob’s cause market structure break
They’re stronger than internal
But ..
If there is imbalance at or near the ob, it doesn’t matter which ob you take it will be good
Thanks do you pair it with any other (lux) indicators for confluence?
I think the OBs whether Swing or Internal doesn’t need to be printed alongside when BOS or CHoCH is created. OBs can be printed much earlier. Currently, IMHO, it is way too late.
So I understand correctly, it is the BOS & CHoCH that are being printed too late?
Nope
Ah ok, so otherway around, the OB's are printed too late?
BOS and CHoCH are both fine and they alert on bar close
That would explain why I had been thinking, there should be an OB when there is not yet one. Thought I was misreading the chart. Visualizing trend lines and support/resistance has never come naturally for me. Have been hunting for something like PAC for ever!
You can do replay and see when and where the OBs are printed while either BOS or CHoCH is printed
I think the OBs can be a few candles earlier
Great idea thanks 🙂
So as earlier mentioned, currently the best use for OBs are for SupDem or S/R zone when price retest or respect that particular zone
And I think best if there are 2 separate control panel for OBs on user pref how they will be mitigated and an additional user pref of “none” (no mitigation)
Maybe I want my swing OBs will not vanished when mitigated and internal OBs to disappear when mitigated
The TL is as powerful as the other PAC tools, seems less ppl are interested on it
Like this trade, perhaps I would close my trade if I don’t see that support TL.
Newbie question here: I see a lot of people saying to only risk 2% of your account per trade, does this mean you can put however much you want into the trade but set the stop loss at 2% of your entire account. OR, You should only ever put 2% of your account balance into one trade
say you have 100$ and you want to risk 2%, that means around 2$, so you will set your hard SL equal to 2$, but if you set a higher lot size, it reduces your hard SL level, so it will become tighter, if you use lower lot size, then you will create enough buffer just in case price start to goes against your trade, possibly will not hit your fixed SL
Guy which app can o use for forex trading on iOS
if you have existing MT4, you can still used it.....for new d/l, I think they banned already.....if ctrader works for you then try it
Thank u
Which broker can u conect it
OB's are formed as SOON as market structure is broken
no
order block is called order block once market structure breaks
to break market structure, insutution-level buying/selling orders must go through
otherwise any swing low/high is an ob lol
no actually, order block as the accumulation of orders from banks and insti which you and I have no access on it
thus creating range zone with high liquidity
thats not how it works but ok lol
this is actually the order block, accumulation which leads to markup
you can google it if you want, I guess you got google, well if you don't want...lolz
as you wish lol. Ive been trading order blocks for almost 2 years now
i gotta eat once im back ill show you what is a valid order block and what isnt
and maybe @past acorn can clear it up and confirm how the lux OB works, ie order block created once market structure breaks or market structure, insutution-level buying/selling orders
there is not even market structure break. oh my days. just keep doing what youre doing lol
what's the best forex exchange?
where do u live?
On earth
lol


Turkey
hmmm ok, the big ones are Oanda and Forex.com,
not sure what leverage they can give yu for Turkey residents, but you should be finding others that go up to 1:500
Thanks.I'm searching.
hey mate, have you shared any setups and are you using PAC as well
gcmyatirim
appreciate you
I've noticed many people seem to be using countertrade mode in the share-strategies channel, do you also use the optibot settings for that mode?
What is PAC ?
@terse haven yo man how have you added PAC to your strategy along with the SSL and colour change moving average
I actually removed everything else and only using PAC and oscillator
As in the price action concepts? Which settings have you found the best results with on them?
Yea price action concept I’m using the default settings and turned on everything, I’m always testing so I can’t say what’s best , as I’m always looking to improve myself , learning never stops
Ye makes sense, still on the 5 minute tf ?
Depends on what I want to do that day I usually stick to the 1hr TF and 15m for entries for a higher Tp target , for scalping I use the 5m and 3m
Ye I get uou, what do you aim for in a percentage gain when scalping ?
Scalping I have no set targets, i focus on my entries and I trail the trade , I just follow the market structure and trendlines @snow lagoon
Ye I get uou and risking 2-5 % per trade ?
Depends on the setup, but I base it on how much money would I loose on a set SL and size my trade based on that , i trade mostly 1 lot and have a $500 stop loss rule for myself , so I won’t loose more than $500 per trade @snow lagoon
I usually cut the losers short I never let it go to far against me
jesus $500 sl? what is your position size and tp xd
$500 in loss would be a $5 move against me on gold with 1 lot
They do get hit sometimes but most of the time they don’t , I try to get sniper entries and the $5 SL is only on a swing/day trade
oh in that case yeah, for swing day trade normal
but for a scalp is crazy
For scalping no , I set SL at $1 move , but as soon as I’m in profit i break even and trail from there
awesome
do you close what % of ur positon at tp?
and keep what % runnning?
anyone got a 1 minute scalping strat for forex they would like to share?
I close all at TP
Done for today , went a lil crazy with the lots but this a big account
One day🤞
Be patient, don’t rush things , don’t lose focus , you and everyone here can achieve great things. Start with ur mindset and you will see progress
Hey guys can someone recommend any good and fast paying borker for trading
Hey man congrats to your profits. Whats oscilator are you using?
Thanks and I use Lux algo oscillator, the ultimate stochastic and the Macd
And you use m15 to enter ? When both of them agree?
@terse haven could you send a ss of your chart setup?
Sometimes one will agree and the other not , I just use as some confluence but my trades are strictly using PAC levels
Got you thanks.
Yea but I’m not home I’m on my phone rn so a phone SS
Thanks 🙂
dude, 25 lots on this sucker? wth? how large is your account? a few ticks against you will call your margin, no? thats nuts, but shit, I wanna some of that! 🤣
I need a good broker platform
Lol I got a lot of funded accounts from 20k accounts to 300k , 25 lots ain’t that bad on the 300k account as long as I don’t drawdown 15k I’m safe , these are extremely sniper entries tho
I got 11 Mff accounts
why not trade your own money and earn 100% of your time and effort? 🤷🏻♂️ screw helping these props firms make money off of you 🤷🏻♂️
I prefer it this way because if I ever do end up loosing big it’s their money not mines lol
I have a personal account but I only use it on the best possible setup, that money I protect
Impressive javielto
I am not ballsy enough for that short time frames
Too scared from noise
🤣
In some way u are right, props make money from you but funded is good to get you started enough to fund ur personal account, I look at it as taking advantage of them for now until I’m ready to let go @echo kiln
I’m not a fan of low tf either, but when price at a orderblock and or a FVG created on the 1 hour) I go to low timeframe to look for rejections , then take trade off the rejection
Then this I would agree with 100%, save up and go on your own
To be fair i did that with some scalps on eur usd shorts around the 1.0380-1.0400
@terse haven you are really pro. I keep losing money recently no matter how I trade
Should have held a bit to take more but 2 scalps is like 40% of what i would have made
never understood why peeps do prop firms for all their life, im scratching my head, if they did this for a long time, they must be good, so why not trade for yourself and earn 100% of your efforts
That’s a really good day , that’s some nice profit
Yes just need to trade what i see
Dont trade what i think
Take small % trades
And grind it up
Blown up a lot of times to realise that the gauranteed trade is always not 🥲
Capturing 60% of a move is better than catching the falling knife
I used to be the same and I started wrong , I been trading for 4 years and the first 2 years I lost over 100k , the 3rd year I stopped gambling and took time off trading and focused in knowledge and paper trading- 4th year successfully consistent, I never gave up , anyone can do this
From all my experience and all I went through to be able to be consistent, the tips I can give you to help you get better are not what strategies I’m using
It is your mindset, your dedication, patience.
I Look at it like school, every professional worker went to school and practiced hands on training and takes them at least 1-2years to graduate,
same is trading - trading is a profession and takes time to learn, if you rush the process you will fail , I was failing because I wanted to make money without the knowledge,
If you study 📚 u will learn, it’s just the basics of life .
@terse haven thank you for sharing this important lesson. Didn’t know you been through the hard way as well. I will bear this in mind and start to study and practice
Price action is king , learn that and you will get better, it’s not about winning them all but becoming consistent
Thank you.
I use the 1hour to determine the trend / support and resistance levels using the PAC , then jump to low TF and look for rejection - but when there are news and fed meetings, fomc ect I try to stay out 1hr before and 1hour after to let the market stabilize from the event to have a clear direction- trading news is always a gamble - no analysis is really valid at a volatile time
Here are two screenshots of the start of the big moves on the 1hour TF, you got a bullish engulfing example and a bearish engulfing both happened at an order block giving me confidence to enter the trade .
Just all the lesson today is worth the software fee.
True, we learn a lot from the more experience ones!
Thanks for sharing @terse haven
Thanks @terse haven
🫰 Everyone chatting about PAC, dont forget about LuxAlgo Premium........I know it's not fancy like PAC, but have a look at it 👀
I agree, when combine, it creates a great tool. Especially for some fast pack intraday action.
@terse haven i saw you usually trade XAUUSD can you can share, trading strategy I think it can help a lot I have read your from this year a consistent trader , I'm in from 2 years and I have burn already around 70/80k . Now I'm starting to be less impulsive . Maybe you can help me thanks a lot in advance!
Agreed, I am loving Trend Catcher combined with PAC, it's great for exiting winning trades at an optimal time, and exiting losing trades before stoploss gets hit.
@terse haven thanks for sharing. I am trying to pass a funded account challenge with 5%ers at the moment. I think its brilliant putting large risks on someone else's money. The profit share is pretty decent in my opinion. Not everyone has 100k laying around to put into a exchange either.
FTMO been consistent on profit split.....will pay on time....try it @atomic stratus ....support channel is nice also
A good reason for doing props is that you are not risking your own money, and also I believe it makes you a better trader as you have to focus more on risk management.
hmmm, I would think id be more careful with my own money than someone else's, right?
maybe one day ill give it a go
whats the splits these days? if high enough, then yeah!
80-20 mate
and if you are really that good, they have scaling plan plus will be upgraded to 90-10
80 to me?
ok ok, here we go
here? LOL
FTMO is been quite long on prop game.....some are having hard time on the payout....some dissolved already...
so try FTMO
Everyone is different when it comes to psychological hang ups with trading. I definitely find what you said to be true. I am much stricter about sticking to my strategy rules, no impulse trades, and sticking to my risk management with the funded challenge. As I know it's too easy to blow the rules otherwise. There is more room to move with your own account.
their Psycho coach is from my traders group before....... she made a good leap in realm of trading
sort of....so stick with more reliable one
I was so close yesterday to finishing the challenge....so close. Kicking myself because I knew I needed a sleep when the London session started, I was so drowsy. But pushed through, like a stupid stubborn idiot, and went $600 backwards. NEVER trade when exhausted. Lesson learnt!
indeed, and if I may add......pending limit order really helps me overcame that FOMO thingy
I should have just had the evening off. I broke my own rules, didn't wait for confirmation on the 1st & 2nd trade and then pretty much revenge traded on the 3rd. We make stupid choices when dog tired. After having a great run all week. I am thinking of framing some trading rules to go on my wall 🤣
@Nevlugion#5712 yes but you have quite a strict drawdown limits with the prop firms.
I guess I’ll never qualify, I’m all over the place in my own way 🤷🏻♂️ Dam
Just wondering what is PAC
Price Action Concept
@atomic stratus is this right way .. Trend catcher with PAC
This is my 15M setup with just the Trend Catcher, I turn the buy/sell signals off under "Style" in the Lux Algo Premium indicator. PAC also. I don't use Candle Coloring as I prefer to easily see the 3 Line Strikes, and Bullish candles. I am by no means an expert at LUX config though, only been here a week.
Same here I subscribe on 27th Nov.. still getting familiar with the Premium algo
You would be surprised, the one I am with doesn't restrict trading style. You can scalp, even hedge if that's your thing. The rules are more around risk management, like no more than 2% of account risked per trade, and must have a stoploss, max draw down on account. I was way all over the place with crypto too, but I am trying to change my ways haha
How does the trend catcher help you since the candles tells you the same thing. Don’t mind me asking. I am a noob here.
Hi fellow Lux newbie 🙂 It's fun learning it all. I have noticed Trend Catcher is more precise on lower timeframes. I am back testing a 5m one I put together today that adds in the HQ Cloud too.
Do you mean the candle coloring? From what I have observed, i thought I was getting different colors. Like Trend Catcher can be green if candles are still red? Anyone else confirm this?
@atomic stratus has earned the Lux Level 1 role!
Yes. Trend catcher is a much earlier detection. But how does it aid to your trading since you have the candle stick tell you red or green
More reliable, earlier entries. I scalp so early is good. I don't use the candle coloring because I like to see the normal candle colors to spot bullish etc. Trend Catcher is confirmation for what PAC shows.
Ahhh…. Thanks for that. I will try it too! 😁
@prisma bluff forgot to say its especially useful to me for exits. I have TV alerts that send automatically to MetaTrader if the trend changes so I keep more profit or cut losses early.
Noted. Thank you for the input.
@prisma bluff has earned the Lux Level 1 role!

Guys, my first day with Algo Lux and with an account about 10.000 euro, I earn 114 euro in the first 2 hours. Amazing...
Welcome on board and enjoy
Hi All, what is the best/most profitable moving average crossover for 5 Min chart on Indices or forex?
I’m actually doing this right now
There isn't one. Not for such a low timeframe. You're better off trading support and resistance.
Hi fellows, just joined here…hope we all get a lot of green trades 😃
welcome @proper vector
🦾
Thanks, I am relatively new to trading, tried a few Signal services an was not satisfied…hope it will work out better here.
I was trying to follow the indicators, but the market went the other way. It’s really hard to pick the right choice for me…
Also today I have loss 1.5% 😭😭
All was showing for a strong USD but it falls…🙈
I don't understand how people use these plugin
Which plugin?
USD/JPY, gambled on first short trade in between news, aiming for discount level, I know I know, stupid, hit SL +1 pip, so I survived. Came back after all the news, still HT 1H short trend, took another gamble at a short, aiming for discount level again, but hit my TSL at +15pips. I guess i'm done. Not a big timer like all you folks, but better than someone kicking me in the face, or pushing me down the stairs 🤣 🤷🏻♂️ 🦎 (entered on m5 and managed on m1)
I also overlayed the Lux Premium, turn on/off during the trade management as well....whatever works, right?
Just need to hold on for the home run's 🤷🏻♂️
Still a newbie trader so don’t take my analysis as any advice hahaha but I will share what I traded in the London Session today RR: 1:1.5
Price forming HH / HL’s and a BOS was formed, waited for a pullback to the BOS level and placed stop below OB. I’ve noticed when the price is above the average on RSI it’s a good confluence to buy and vice versa when selling. Sold when the price hit the overbought area on the RSI.
not bad at all, from internal ob to premium, nice job! text book, right?
and looks like from your 1hr candles, you had a stress free ride to the top
Yeahh text book, trying to keep things as simple as possible hahahah
I normally go between 4h/1h/15mins
I’ve been revising my strategy with the neo cloud. I can’t believe I haven’t been using it
Lmfao
Hello i wanna ask, is that possible to know forex scanner bot accuracy ?
Hey there, sorry for getting back to you this late, yes trend catcher is amazing and all thanks to LUX Algo and you, I have applied in all my charts ... 🥳
Yes it does, and it makes it super easy to detect the movement whether its bullish or bearish ...
tell me about the strategy, all ears 👂
Neo Cloud found in LUX premium ... just change the filters and you could get more confirmation on blue color being bullish and red color being bearish
which filters mate? you mean set preset filter to Neo?
@summer wedge there you go!
thanks mate
🦋
you already know, its NEO or bust. 🤣 🚀
I’m feeling the butterflies
nice job
Works great, I just waited for choch ( change of character) on the 15min then waited for price to come back to the supply zone and took entry , SL at orderblock and TP on the 1hour TF
PAC is a beast
What forex broker do you used in the US that have US30?
For personal I use lqdfx, it’s an offshore account but allow us residents
Thank you @terse haven
What u guys think price will keep coming down? Looking at the weekly I still think we can go higher if price manages to break the 1800 again in the next few days/weeks
Lower tf might look bad rn but the big picture shows otherwise, let’s see what happens
On the other side of the picture we double top at 1804 on the daily , but also looking like an inverted head and shoulder
Really tricky scenario here , I’m gonna stay out till I have a better clear direction
This could actually be a short side fakeout, it was an NFP move after all and DXY looking like crap still
DAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM so impatient
took a short usdjpy, took forever, stagnant for past 3.5 hours, so closed out at BE, screw it. Then look what happens‼️
🤬
🤣
stick with Neo as they say 🤷🏻♂️
Purple!!! 😂
@terse haven Need to know your setting for the order block coz mine doesn't work except being gray in color
For the new LUX members, check out this simple strategy I have always said Neo Cloud was my anchor. Top to bottom analysis. 1hour chart Neo Cloud showed down trend, even after major news release. So now we wait for lower time frames to take a short, if it's there. 15minute chart Lux Candle color turning red below Neo Cloud, as I treat Neo Cloud as support/resistance. 5minute chart Neo Cloud turns short, there is your entry 🚀 Now you can add other Lux oscillators below for confluence. Why not add the new PAC levels for target levels? so many ways. Just need to start simple and build around it....
For those who trade on a much smaller TF, look at the 1minute here, here is where the entry could had been with confluence of the Lux Ultimate Stochastic
Potential of 25-40 pips on this move
🚀
Start simple with Lux Premium, no need to be fancy right away. Take a few small wins to make you feel good, and then start to add other tools to improve what you can see on your charts
I'm always learning too, Always re-watching Lux/Geckos Videos, to see if I missed anything.
Now why dont we add Lux Volume Profile to this? Look where price is bouncing around ranging? in between the two POC's (volume & Volatility) on the Lux Vol Profile. Maybe good area to close out trade or trim some off?
Take it another step further, add the Price Action Concepts level to this chart 🤔 Maybe price needs to head back up towards some levels, before making another leg down?
These are just ideas I have seen others use, not necessarily what I use. Find something that fits with you...
Hmmm do I trade oil and hold over the weekend….eu agreeing to cap Russian to $60 a barrel
why not, you have 50/50 odds, right? 🤷🏻♂️
We’ll see if a nice set up comes into place for me
Not ideal holding over the weekend
With whats going on over there, anything can happen over the weekend, while your sleeping 🤷🏻♂️
Anyone take a few pips today❓
Early today I posted a sample top/bottom strategy with usd/jpy, here is eur/usd. 1H HT tells me to stay long, even after news announcement. Wait for a move up on the LuxPremium on the LT m5. (winner chicken dinner?)🤷🏻♂️
Good morning from the states ☀️
GM 😄
Good morning ☀️ it’s a nice but boring day
How u get the pro badge, an upgrade or just being too active
Being too active 🤣
It's for people very very active and have been with us a long time and are trusted
Got it (:
Morning. Yes boring with no trading pairs. But the good thing about it, I have time to study my charts and learn new ideas from everyone 🌞 So what’s your go-to set-up entry❓😁🦋
Very true , well I been back testing something interesting with the ultimate Macd on the 5 min TF and it seems to be a really good strategy using the PAC, Neo cloud,trend tracer and trend catcher I’ll share the details shortly, let me get some screenshots ready for you
Thats great, thanks again....interested in seeing the ulti macd with pac and neo
a little fyi, I think the trend catcher is a little off, update coming soon @terse haven It gets out of wack after a sudden price pop, which occurred after yesterdays NFP news....
I like the Adv Osc, but I do like the Ulti MACD as it may not show details like the Adv Ocs, but may smooth out the jitterness of price movements, in order to not scare you out of a trade.........
I been testing it with just the volume and the 30-70 level for entry , me I personally almost all the time I get sniper entry but my main problem is not riding the trade out till TP , so I’m looking for an edge to be strong and hold trough the manipulation until the target hit or trend changes, I consider myself a good trader and consistently profitable but there is so much more room to grow , I always end up missing the massive move most of the time after I got the best entry @echo kiln
I’m testing on the 5min and 15min tf
EURUSD at resistance on 5min,15,1&4H
Can you plz throw some light on some hood setups that you have seen successful
@echo kiln on the advanced Macd I have the length set to 5 and disable the dynamic, Basically what I’m looking for is that the price is changing character or BOS after a pull back or a steep decline, then i would enter a long when the volume of the ultimate Macd is crossing the 70 level with that Choch or bos
For existing the trade I’m still trying to time the best exit , either the stochastic length 50 turning red , or a candle closing below the trend tracer
hmmmm, thats a great description of your trading mindset, just like me, always taking the easy 10-15 pips, but there's so much more to be had. Have you tried aiming for a PAC level? ORRRRRRR, let the trade run with the LuxPrem candle colors? Now this would be simple and not crowd the chart......hmmmmmm
Be less time to analyze the chart to go for bigger runs, just go with the LuxPrem candle colors, set it and forget it 💰
YEAH, nice call, might be a drop to a few FVG's and PAC levels below...
Sure, a very VERY simple strat to get started is the one I personally use. I posted it yesterday in this room.....
Also, if you like stocks or options, another simple one is called the QQQ Strat, should be posted in the other rooms as well, thats a good strat for sure, check it out. Keep in mind, these strats were molded by Lux members here, and we constantly improve on it....
What really HELPS to create you own strat is the videos on Lux youtube and Gecko's youtube as well, PRICELESS💎
True just by the coloring it’s pretty obvious where the price could be headed it does help stay longer in the trade
Yeah, I can make a strat based on candle colors, and nothing else on the chart....let me see....talk about simple
Here you go, YOU cant get simplier than this‼️ LuxPrem candle color only on chart. 1H for trend bias, and m15 for entry/exit chart 🔥
Ok here, if you want to use LuxPrem signals, look at 1H first, if there is Short signal, go to m15, and if m15 candle shows red, then take the short entry. Look at the green long signal on 1H, then on the m15, you could had taken that long entry, but LOOK, it was safe as the m15 was green and purple, and you could had closed out very safely and not get hurt....
here is they 1H long signal I talked about, and look where you entered on the m15
enough time to close out at BE or small win, or small loss depending on your finger on the mouse. But look at the HUGE wins you could of had following the colors of 1H
YOU cant get any pimplier than this, right?
1.AUDJPY4H 2.AUDJPY15MIN 3.AUDJPY5MIN
PAC levels look good for sure!
YUPP.
I’m planning on changing my sleep schedule this week so I can actually make some trades during London session.
Anyone else here have to do that? Lol
who sleeps?
NOT ME im CYBORG 😎
@echo kiln whats your view on GBPNZD looks nice support at 4H
🦋 the above charts were confirming gradient, now use confirm simple, that 1H long signal, that was a no-go, no trade since no green candle, but a ranging purple candle
HATE GBP with a passion, real time price action eb/flow really stinks, to jumpy and jittery, not for me, BYE
I like boring price moves 😹
thats why me and crypto dont date
😹
its ok, post GBP, I can love the chart set-ups, and learn as well
okay okay😁
here is eurgbp on candle colors only, I did not adjust anytime axis and it is the same as my usd/jpy chart
this is what I mean jittery price movements, yuck 😹
😁
BUT, for PAC trades, it might be good, as the chances might be good to hit any of your levels, right or wrong, it could hit any level with this type of movement, right?

Not any levels 🤣🤣
USDjpy broked it's support at 4H
just like the folks in the stock chat, most of them chose qqq the way it moves.....
I can't trade Qqq 😁
yeah, most of us cant, as we may need to go offshore broker etc.....too much headache in withdrawing
Not available in my 1: unlimited leverage broker 🤣🤣
LOLLLLLL
Yeah too much and if through any means then not legal 😊
and I havnt the slightest clue where to begin for options....beta theta gamma....whatever

above my education level
Have u seen my broker 😁😁
which one?
Learned a lot but don't trade options
1: unlimited leverage 🤣🤣
maybe one day ill take the time to learn
screw that, i like Oanda, caps me out at 1:50
keeps me in check
Mine gives the most 1:2000 & then unlimited 😂
Just motivating me to blow my account soon 🤣
OMG, talk about busting an account on the first losing trade
Don't have anything to do so I just learn a lot 😁😁
shouldnt be legal anywhere, except for some islands
cayman, st george or wherever most crypto scammers are
LOLLLLL
Forex is completely illegal here
Just these brokers are operating through P2P.
nuts
Just for fun with 10$ demo account I traded 0.60 lots it's just boomed to 50$ profit & the next sec its over 🥺🥺
50 to 0 $😭
Lol my broker has 500 leverage
OANDA 50 leverage was too little for me
And the spreads were too high for 1 min TF trading
so we got offshore people that wants to trade qqq
and US citizens that wants to trade crypto
yup
One day I’ll move out USA just so I can trade more comfortably
Figured out new strategy for 1 min scalping. Backtested 2 weeks got 34 wins 12 losses, call it 30 wins 15 losses for good measure...at 1 to 3 RR. 🤔 🧐 Could this be the one??? Lol Going to adjust sleep so I can trade London session. Ill let you guys know how it goes. Hoping this is it. 🙏
Now you have my attention 
Youll be the first to know if all goes well
1m scalping 1:3 RR? damn you onto something bro! let us know and gl
Yeah I guess its not really "scalping" lol
Stand in line, you will be 2nd to know
hahah
let me know when you get to know

youll know when i know when he tells me that im ready to know, if you know what i mean 🤷🏻♂️
all you rich traders with Discord Nitro, smh
😹
i know thats why when youll know when he lets you know then let me know that he let you know what he knows so i can know what you know from what he knows

ok gn babes
exactly 🫰
am jumping in the line haha the third one 🙂
@crystal pivot decides that unfortunately 😹
Lol I should’ve never said anything 🥴
What strategy??? 😅
Just give it up already......
now is too late haha we stay already in line 😂
I told you @echo kiln go to Thailand and trade in USD but spend in BAHT and you will live like a 👑 😂
that’s pretty much same in every 3rd world country
If only that fallacy was true. I've been living in Thailand 9 years now, and one thing it is not is cheap. Beleive me.
idk about thailand lmao but for vietnam it’s true 100%
Yes that's what I heard too. A lot of expats have left Thailand and moved to Vietnam for that reason. But my wife is Thai so we won't be going anywhere soon.
I actually wondering why Thailand still considered a Third World Country, where in fact they are more like a "developing" country
But thats okay. I do like it here
In some respects they are quite developed. But. The infrastructure sucks and they are embedded in a culture that does not like change.
and that's why it gest "costly" on your part...you been there for so long, get used to the daily norms of Thai Life
Right. Anything 'foreign' is imported with costly import duties. I live in the south and not in a tourist area but a western meal is comparable to UK prices. But even for Nationals it is expensive as the wages are so low.
so apparently 3rd world and developing countries mean the same thing
Lol. I would say so, yes.
3rd world is more offensive so they stopped using it
Right. Politically incorrect.
Very much so.
Bangladesh and Cambodia is no developing country IMHO, not even near...... but Thailand is far far far better than those 2
Yes for sure.
look at the GDP of those 3 countries I mentioned
unstable and the gov is a lot more apparent in corruption
GDP means nothing. That was introduce during The Great Depression and was never meant to be continued - smoke and mirrors.
No comment. Reminder to myself - get a vpn.
I think to be a “developed” country it would mean that country has influence over other countries in term of the economics
Think it just means you flush toilet paper down the pan without causing a blockage.
Anyway gotta go.
i was born in vietnam and has moved to the US and became citizens for 14 years and i still dont like to live in the US with its “freedom” priviledge
not developed country but developing country, totally different level
in some way, with money, freedom can be anything in vietnam
Ill stay were im at, the land of the free, the land I was born in.......no place like home
👉 Whats everyones favorite "FREE" Lux indicator ❓
oooooooooook, Ill go first 😹
I like the VRMDH 😁
Check it out
See how the VRMDH plotted it's 4 POC levels for the period of last monday to friday. Take a look how price went down quick from the 2nd POC, paused at the 3rd POC, and then touched the 4th POC, and ranging back to the 3rd POC
Have fun, enjoy the weekend 😹

How does everyone find reversals early in the markets Do they use candles, double tops, patterns etc?
that is a nice one 😉
our Reversal Zones feature is really good for this 🙂
Premium and discount zones?
Reversal Zones within the ‘LuxAlgo Premium’ indicator
Thankyou
seems it can be a nice setup
Agree, and once you learn what past bars you want to scan it with, its good. 🍇
This is a tough one looking at this chart alone, could be the first HL for a leg up to a HH, breaking through some internal OB's. Or a fake out to the upside to get you back into the range below. Whats does a HT say?
and thats a alot of news coming, stay out
🍇
Yeah I'm always aware of news 😁😁
Just having my homework for action 😁😁
It's ranging on 4h &1D
Can be a good short on 15TF
Let's see how it reacts.
reversal zones but you need to pair it up with rsi and something else because a lot of times it goes beyond the zones
Yall ready for this week?💪
week only started 😆 was gonna hold but I’ll take it
goddamn $19400 lol
Well I’m not gonna say it was all pure profit, I’m only up 13k I had took a 6k loss prior to this trade
Thats still crazy you playing with big money. One day ill get there lol
You sure will 🙏🏽, anyone who is consistent and self educated , motivated can achieve big money moves , it’s all about planning
Thanks yea I think I finally have a good strategy. Starting to test it live now. I'll see how this week goes 🙏
I'm ready for it
Good to hear keep us updated on ur progress, hope it goes well and never give up 💪🏽
Thanks man I appreciate it 💯
Well done! I have been playing with your ideas 🙂
Hope you have found the one! How do you go with 1m timeframes. I find I am normally not quick enough on anything lower than 5m
Well I'm going to find out tonight most likely, just have to be ready I guess lol
Stay away from 1m if possible, you need to be extremely skilled to make the 1m work , it’s just hard for any average trader , not imposible but not recommended
Was this with the new Strat your trying out, you described yesterday?
Yea basically Macd volume with choch , trendline breaks ect , quite few confluences ,
The loss I took was an emotional play, I shorted the gap down on market open which was a mistake!
Always wait for a setup , never just asume that the market will do what u want
Was planning to 🙂 I always seem to have technical issues get in the way with too lower timeframes. Anyone else have trouble with MetaTrader not filling limit orders? I have to use market orders for opening trades 100% of the time. Closing seem ok with limit orders.
