If ur sure about ur strategy Execute ur trades without fear or emotion , don’t doubt your abilities

[crystal pivot]

Yeah once i make a few trades ill feel more confident lol

I'm planning on only using market orders with SL and TP set

[atomic stratus]

Yep always the way, the impulse or broken rules trades will break a good run. Your still well up over all though and that's what matters 🙂

[terse haven]

Sometimes depends the broker and chart ur using, price could be slightly different from MetaTrader, and if ur placing ur orders based on trading view make sure ur using the correct broker chart , with the most accurate price matching both charts on tv and MetaTrader

[terse haven]

I always market order , rarely use limits

[crystal pivot]

I'm literally changing my sleep cycle for this. I'm going all out

[terse haven]

Some traders are good with limit orders, I personally suck at them , almost never get filled

[atomic stratus]

I can see the limit orders fine on metatrader, the price just jumps above and below it but never fills. I suspect it may be because I am not using a VPS. The connection on my home internet seems fine, and is the best you can get here, but who knows!

[atomic stratus]

Oh ok, so not just me

[terse haven]

Not necessarily, maybe spread is hitting ur limit orders but actuall price is not ?

I should get filled if price successfully hit ur order

[atomic stratus]

What is a sleep cycle? 😴 🤣

[crystal pivot]

Yeah I dont think Ive ever used a limit order lol

I only want to trade London session and Im stopping before NY

My strategy works best in that timeframe

Going to stick to it

Only thing is my set up happens around 2-3 times in these 6 hours so have to be patient

[terse haven]

If anyone want to copy my template and see if you like the strategy or test my settings feel free to check it out https://www.tradingview.com/chart/x0jHXfSW/

[crystal pivot]

Thanks I'll check it out tomorrow

[atomic stratus]

Some of the best strategies have few entries but they are ideal entries. Good luck! What timeframe are you in? I am in Australia, and its crazy hour with the kids at my house when the London Session starts. It's the best time to trade, but so hard to concentrate, with the kids dinner and bedtime routines.

[leaden flower]

can be a nice long if price retests and get support target can be around weekly resistance

[crystal pivot]

Thanks yeah quality over quanity and im in California PST

[atomic stratus]

Thanks will definitely try it out, would work ok on 15M?

[crystal pivot]

From now on im staying up from 11pm-4:45am lol

[terse haven]

Yea it works on 15m but will get late entries but more valid confluence the higher the tf but the best results I had with it is on the 5m tf

[terse haven]

I used to live in Long Beach I moved to Orlando

I miss Cali so much

[crystal pivot]

Lol I hate it here tbh

I thought Florida was a good place to live

[leaden flower]

@terse haven any view on this?

[terse haven]

Tax rate and cost of living is better out here that’s for sure

[atomic stratus]

Nice 🙂 My fav band when I was a little girl was the Beach Boys, I was adamant I was going to move over and become a Californian girl for most of my young years thanks to them hahaha

[crystal pivot]

Yeah eventually when I become a successful trader, I need to worry about taxes lol

[crystal pivot]

Lol nice

[steep cape]

GJ about to drop

[terse haven]

I was analyzing and I’m kinda bullish on the market , looking at the daily and weekly we are breaking market structure, i don’t know how far down of a pull back we can get but I don’t expect it to come down a lot if the market makers are planning on testing daily highs , we are clearly at a strong resistance but I wouldn’t doubt it just get crushed trough

[leaden flower]

yeah im also bullish on it

but it has already stretched a lot so it might have a pullback on 15min

[terse haven]

But would be a potential long if it gets to the level ur anticipating

[atomic stratus]

Scalpers...are you using order blocks to exit trades before a potential pull back?

[terse haven]

I always set my SL above an order block for short and below for long!
For the most part I do try to target order blocks for TP or when I’m just simply happy with the trade or expect it to pull back on me , I don’t worry much about catching the whole move but more focused on entering in the right direction, taking profits is always the hard part , emotions and greed kicks in , so I learned to just take profit at a reasonable price

[leaden flower]

GBPJPY after a bearish move has taken support at 1D If price breaks 4H then we can have a nice long after retest

[atomic stratus]

Thanks...so I think I understand the rules of your strategy, but did I miss where the Trend Tracer plays in? Is that part of the criteria, or just extra confirmation? Also when you say you look for a sharp drop before entering a long, how much of a pull back would you recommend here? Not just a normal low?

[terse haven]

So basically for a long im looking for that drop like you said , and only will take a long once there is a choch or Bos and change of candle color with the stochastic turning green and a important part of the strategy is to only enter when the volume of the Macd is breaking above the 70 line

@atomic stratus to short is the exact opposite, u want a choch or bos , change candle color and volume of Macd breaking below 30

[atomic stratus]

Thanks, the screen shots help. Have you just tested on Gold so far?

[crystal pivot]

That long wick 4 min ago screwed up my set up lol

Still patiently waiting

[terse haven]

I only trade gold mostly but it’s pretty much the same for anything else just by looking at other charts but I simply just love gold , I don’t need to trade anything else , 1 pair is sufficient enough to make money , and the longer you stick to a pair the more familiar you get with it and it’s levels so eventually it just comes naturally and predictable

[crystal pivot]

Nice I like that sticking to one pair 💯 . I've done all my testing on AUD/USD so just going to stick with it

[atomic stratus]

I know what you mean, I have been enjoying USD/JPY. & AUD/JPY.

I am thinking about starting another funded account so I can have different strategy running and not be tempted to switch back and forth on the same account

[steep cape]

My favorites are Gj, Gold, and US30

[dim hornet]

guys,Based on lux algo stretegy can I automate trades on MT5? if yes, how?

[terse haven]

I like testing new strategies and learn new things but if something is working there’s no need to change it , just adapt to new market conditions and unexpected situations ,

You should focus on a strategy that works rather than running two separate strategies to see which one is better , better to test demo than real account if your just in the testing phase

[terse haven]

I have no idea about this , there should be a way to do it with 3commas or something I’ve seen others talking about this topic on vip hangout the other day but didn’t really pay attention

[dim hornet]

Thanks for lettting me know. i really dont know even what is 4 commas 🙂

sorry 3 commas

[terse haven]

Same I like GJ , is really predictable but rarely trade it

[terse haven]

It’s a bot , you can set Tradingview alerts to 3commas bot will take the signals given from trading view and place the trades

I think that’s how it works I never used it , I’ve used pineconnector which is a bot as well but I don’t know if Lux is compatible with pineconnector

[dim hornet]

nice. Thanks for the infos

[worldly goblet]

Who you funded through?

[terse haven]

MyForexFunds is one of the best in my opinion , ftmo is alright, and thefundedtrader has good offers and rules but there are high spread and slippage problems, glitches or freezes randomly so I stopped using them

[atomic stratus]

Lux is compatible with Pineconnector, I am using it. It works for entries and exits, changing stoploss etc. It's just a bit limited with what syntax you can use as their is no access to the script. Personally I am only using it for safety close trade signals at the moment (for example a bearish BOS during a long trade). I prefer to open the trades manually. I have also used 3Commas extensively with Crypto, it is great platform, and yes can be used with Lux.

[crystal pivot]

I didnt know you can get funded, hows that work? Nvm just researched it

[atomic stratus]

The 5%ers, they seem to have a good rep, also heard good things about FTMO

[atomic stratus]

@terse haven seems to be the funded king here 🙂 I am still trying to pass my challenge haha

[terse haven]

You need to pay for a evaluation challenge, they have multiple account size to choose from 500 to 300k accounts ,

Pay the fee for the challenge
Then u have rules , you can only lose a max of 5% daily, and 10% from the initial balance,
There are two stages
Need to make 8-10% profit on the first phase
Then 5% profit on the second phase
Without violating any rules of drawdown

Once passed you need to verify ur account ect , than you will get a refund for the challenge on your first payout

If u violate any rules unfortunately there is no refund and you need to start all over again

Only buy a challenge if you are consistent and confident that you will not violate any rules

[terse haven]

When I started I failed 8 challenges before I passed one 😂 it was a process but it is not impossible

I’ve come a long way trust me , it wasn’t always a blue sky

[crystal pivot]

Goddamn lmao ok thanks for that info

how much time they give you for each phase?

[terse haven]

Depends on the prop firm but most of them will give you 30 days for phase 1 and 60days for phase 2

If u don’t hit your profit target within that time you have to restart but as long as you stay above the initial balance you don’t need to pay for the challenge again

Also you keep 70-90% of the profits depending on your scaling plan

[crystal pivot]

Oh wow that's a lot of time they give.

[terse haven]

You need to trade at least a minimum of 5 trading days to pass , so if u hit ur target in one day you still need to open atleast Micro trades for the other 4 days to be eligible to pass

[crystal pivot]

Wow ok lol interesting.....

[steep cape]

@terse haven yeah i have enough together for 4 300 k accounts. Just aiming for more consistent profits and less drawdown .

Check your dm bro

[atomic stratus]

Thanks for giving me hope. I seem to be yoyo'ing a lot. I know I can do it. The rules are so different depending on the firm for sure. Do you mind me asking why you chose to pass multiple accounts rather than focus on just one?

[terse haven]

Just to have backup accounts and also looking to merge them all once I have 1.5m in capital which is the max they allow you to have

[atomic stratus]

Rules are different depending on the firm. With mine, you can go up to 21 days with no trade! Also they give even longer to pass. There a different starting account sizes, with also different rules. Like more aggressive/safe account rules. You can pay more, and have less stages to pass. Something for everyone lol

[terse haven]

Im aiming for a really profitable year , so if I can max out my capital, it will allow me to place the big trades I want , with 1.5m in capital my max daily drawdown would be about 75k , not that I want to drawdown that far but gives me plenty of space to do what I want to do , and most importantly I’m not even risking my own money

[atomic stratus]

Ah ok, I didn't know they could be merged. Well its a pretty amazing accomplishment!

[terse haven]

As long as it’s the same type of account you can merge them

[royal rain]

Same type as in rapid or eval or same type as in multiple 200k accounts?

[terse haven]

Same type as rapid can only merge with rapid , and standard can only merge with standard , cannot merge different type of accounts together

The account size don’t matter

As long it doesn’t exceed the max capital they allow, you can merge 100k with a 200k and so on

[royal rain]

Ah, understood. Good to know. I'm busy with a 200k challenge with MFF at the moment

[steep cape]

Im Maxing myself out too. But the best part is you can be maxed out at one firm and then go to other firms and max yourself out there also, which is my goal

[terse haven]

Scale it right and u can get the max capital, one challenge can fund the next challenge and so on , just need to play it smart and it’s basically free after you get ur challenge refund

[royal rain]

Which are the 4 firms you would use?

[royal rain]

Did you manually manage multiple accounts or did you use software like social trader to copy trades in multiple accounts? Or do Mff allow you to merge as soon as you pass the next account?

[terse haven]

They allow you to merge after you pass and get funded on the next account

You can copy trade from your own accounts to multiple accounts but cannot copy trade another traders account to your account

I personally manage each account separately I don’t want to merge them just yet until I’m maxed out

Also don’t like to trade all at once on the same trade , I prefer to manage manually incase I take a loss on a account, i would simply stop trading that account and use the other account for the next trade

[royal rain]

Good strategy. Thanks for sharing!

[icy wraith]

Hi is possible know you luxalgo setup?

[terse haven]

I shared my temple here #💱forex-chat message

[icy wraith]

Thanks u

I check instantly

[terse haven]

Let me know if ur able to copy it

I have sharing enabled so you should be able to just save the layout

[icy wraith]

Yes copied bro

Thanks U so much

What you use for trigger ?

[icy wraith]

I self explain better, what is the confirmations you use before enter in the trade?

And thanks for all 🙏

And what are the tf of reference,I think you use 1hr /15 or 15m/5m

[gentle canyon]

https://wundertrading.com/en/tradingview-automated-trading

[terse haven]

Stochastic color according to the trade ur looking to take , advance histogram volume above 70 or below 30 , choch or bos with candle color change for entry

This strategy is not a 100% winrate so always manage properly , regardless it’s hit rate is pretty high with all the backtesting I’ve done I find this strategy profitable

I’m using it on the 5 min and scalp multiple trades , but I find the best time to get in a trade when price is at a orderblock on the 1hour tf

[icy wraith]

i think this post is to sticky

and you trade with these setting only xau

?

[rich igloo]

Thanks much @terse haven will try this out today.

How about TP and SL?

[terse haven]

You can test other pairs but I trade gold mostly

TP I have no rule , u can trail the trade , u can hold until Macd turns bullish if short or bearish if long , you can try to Tp at an orderblock, in other words u need to manage to get out in profit by what you think is right

Taking profits is hard , just can’t get too emotional just make a decision

It’s just almost impossible to TP at the exact top or bottom because it’s all probabilities, it’s not a sure thing @rich igloo

[terse haven]

For SL use the most recent orderblock

[icy wraith]

Another thing you don't use trendcatcher for confirmation?

[worldly goblet]

Forex markets are so slow today 😦

[terse haven]

Not really, more for trailing the trade

[icy wraith]

Ok

Thanks for all you tips I'm waiting my first trade

With your startegy

Strategy*

[terse haven]

Good luck 👍🏼 let me know how it performs for u

[icy wraith]

I hope like you bro I have only a funded account of 100k but is a good start

[rich igloo]

Thank you brother. I'll try this out and let you know how it works out.

[terse haven]

100k is more than enough to get you going and make good money, im just always pushing myself for more , the sky is the limit / endless

[icy wraith]

You right bro!

[timid heart]

what is the best leverage for deposit $1000

[terse haven]

The safety way to go is 1:50 or 1:100 , if you choose higher leverage just lower ur lot size accordingly to leverage or one bad trade could blow ur 1k really fast

[tight jetty]

Morning All ! im excited to be here! i found the older version just on friday after the market close, and fell in love

now when i found the newer version i hurried to join the community

[terse haven]

Good morning and Welcome to Lux

[full condor]

which pair are you trading? Liquidity was quite high today, movements was about 100pips as usual for GU and GJ. Majors are around 100 pips and more. Market is a bit wild actually considering it is Monday.

[atomic stratus]

Welcome!

[worldly goblet]

Im not trading, just waiting hours for setups. Took profit on GBPNZD but that took 3 hrs before it started to move...now just scanning again

[terse haven]

Yea I was thinking the same , it doesn’t seem slow to me today , actually ran pretty nice , maybe now some consolidation

[full condor]

indeed, it was a wild run starting from Tokyo to Tokyo/London overlap

[rare zenith]

On your macd do you have the luxalgo settings on?

[terse haven]

I didn’t understand? It is the Lux algo Macd I just have different settings and only left the histogram

[rare zenith]

Was just double checking to see if you had the luxalgo settings

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven hi bro thanks and just a quick question your setting for the stochastic is it the same or different

I would like to test it out please if that ok

[icy wraith]

i have waiting choch or bos change colour candle green , green stochastic and finally macd above 70

[terse haven]

Yes, if u scroll up a bit u can copy my template, I shared it not so long ago

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven thanks

[next copper]

@terse haven are you on this trade?

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven I see your stochastic setting is 5 0 1

But on the oscillator it will not allow me to change to those setting, could you help me in anyway please

[terse haven]

That is the version of the indicator it’s not the actual settings

[stoic raptor]

Ok sorry I just realized lol

So I'm guessing you kept the setting the same

[terse haven]

17 and disabled the dynamic

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven thank you 👍

[terse haven]

Im not in it , histogram not above 70 I’m waiting , but looking into a Long if it plays , NY open manipulation , I need to see increased volume to take the trade

But actually looking promising

[echo kiln]

@terse haven This is great, you have an awesome solid setup👏

Morning☀️

[icy wraith]

im looking the same trade lol

[next copper]

maybe after the retest!

[terse haven]

I mistaken Macd with advanced, we are actually using the advanced histogram it is not the Macd just wanted to clear that up

[terse haven]

Thanks 🦋 I try

[icy wraith]

advanced yes

[echo kiln]

So your looking H1 for PAC levels, and scalping in m5 with your structure change, candle color, adv main above 70. Target TP at PAC level, right❓

[atomic stratus]

Cheers @terse haven 🙂

[terse haven]

Yea this setup is for scalping but can end up in day trades and swings, since this setup if pretty much trying to time the reversals and pullbacks and you can trail the trade until it choch or bos in the other direction

1hr tf PAC levels would be the best zones to look for trades and targets but mainly just go with the trend

[terse haven]

🔥 glad to see another one 🎯

[echo kiln]

mmmmmm, Adv Osc has always had a spot with me 🦋

[terse haven]

It’s pretty Danm good , helps me stay out of manipulation

[atomic stratus]

Great for those quick pip grabs before bed! Tried 6 scalps total using your strat tonight and 5 out of 6 profitable. I think I stuck to it pretty close, though I may have cheated on a couple with entering on purple candles...

[terse haven]

Awesome 👏🏽 , I cheat at times too , purple candle is fine as long as everything else is valid

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven thanks for your help javilito I just wanted to ask the second oscillator, is it the awesome osillator

[atomic stratus]

Yep, was strict on everything else. I put the least weight on the candle colors, I think they can be especially delayed with some pairs.

[stoic raptor]

Oscillator

[terse haven]

That’s the ultimate stochastic

[stoic raptor]

Sorry the second one

[icy wraith]

What you think about sell on gold if we have a bos

[stoic raptor]

Above the stochastic

[terse haven]

I agree , the most important part is volume, aslong as the histogram is above 70 or below 30 it’s a potential trade

Just remember this ain’t 100% winrate but it’s pretty consistent so don’t feel bad if there a loosing trade here and there , stick to the plan and watch ur account grow

[terse haven]

That’s the advanced

[atomic stratus]

Keep an eye on Gold, I think it may meet @terse haven Strat pretty soon on the 15M. I have been hanging out but it's past midnight here, so night everyone and have a great trading session 🙂

[terse haven]

Good night 🌙

[stoic raptor]

Ooo ok how would I do the advanced

If you don't mind me asking

And that what I need to be honestly consistency

[terse haven]

It could be a possible short but it’s not an area where I would like to short since price already pushed down quite a bit

[terse haven]

It could come down to around 1782 , 1hour tf orderblock

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven I found it but the stochastic graph disappeared

[terse haven]

I don’t really understand what ur trying to tell me , can u send a screenshot

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven sorry if I'm being annoying

[terse haven]

Don’t worry, we’re here to help one another

Great Job Everyone

[brave rune]

anyone want to talk about gbp/usd?

[native mirage]

credit and big thanks to @terse haven been doing this set up.. and yo gives me good result no 100% but its good..

[echo kiln]

@terse haven Again, great job with this. Question. If one of the criteria is change in structure, why dont we just turn off the LuxPrem candle colors and turn on PAC candle colors? Just wanted your thoughts?

[terse haven]

In fact yes I kinda prefer the pac candle colors and was using them first but there are few times I noticed it will change color late on a big pull back because it hasn’t broken structure in the other direction and by the time it does change might be a bit late

This isn’t all the time because PAC candle colors are really accurate, but there’s times in the market where it will change color a bit late

[native mirage]

this is how i play. always have my analysis and confluences to make sure i dont miss a thing... this PAC is next level.. hope this is the game will change my (our) lives starting this day forward!

[echo kiln]

thats interesting......maybe glitch? who knows 🤷🏻‍♂️

[icy wraith]

same setup bro @native mirage

[terse haven]

Here’s an example same screenshot, one with Lux prem and the other with pac , with Lux prem it was clearly a short and with pac it wasn’t

[echo kiln]

@jagged slate Have you heard anything about PAC candle colors maybe printing a bit late? Should be printing at candle close, right? Ill need to watch this closely or replay this.....

[echo kiln]

which structure change?

[terse haven]

Im my view I think the color changed because it had a choch , but it held green candles all the way down , I think candles should’ve turned red as soon as it broke back in the choch

For the most part pac candle colors are accurate, but moments like these are where it can confuse anyone

[icy wraith]

Let's go guys

[terse haven]

Im in it too already sold half

[echo kiln]

ok i see it, but kinda curious, did it really break internal structure? maybe scan to the left and confirm...not sure, i have a headache 😹

[terse haven]

A little bit more back ,,, honestly it ain’t that bad it’s not all the time that it happens I don’t think it’s a big deal

Also it’s the 5 min TF so it should be normal for things like that to happen, the higher the TF the more accurate the pac candles @echo kiln

I might regret getting out of the trade but it’s all good 📈🤤

[icy wraith]

AMAZING BRO

[echo kiln]

I think it is correct, the structure didnt break until broke below the 734'ish level, right? ill study this more

[icy wraith]

This is the last step for my strategy thanks U a lot @terse haven

[royal rain]

Wow! Thanks Both! Epic scalp

I'm not used to trading Xauusd so I got the lot size wrong. This time it worked out in my favour! $1500 in 3 minutes!

[echo kiln]

@terse haven it maybe one of those times that the color structure worked , but due to the jittery fast price action, it changed too late for our taste?

[icy wraith]

With these oscillators I can have more confirm for my trades and is that I need for don't enter in too much trades

Bro but with 30 lot you don't risk to reach 5% limit of daily drawdown

[terse haven]

I have a big account, big DD lol

I run multiple accounts the one I’m running with 30 lots is a 300k account

[terse haven]

🔥glad it went in our favor

[royal rain]

Phew, me too!!

[gusty mango]

What’s your order size in $ if I may ask?

Just answered above 😂

[terse haven]

Im thinking that could be it , i dont think there’s a problem with the candles, just market manipulation

[gusty mango]

Sheesh

[terse haven]

Dang it whyyy I let go of my short 😩

[terse haven]

Awesome catch

[gusty mango]

Are all these indicators lux indicators?

[terse haven]

Amazing it make me feel good to see others doing it 💯 , I know many won’t share they’re strategies, but I always love to share because when I wasn’t profitable I always wanted someone to help me get better but many people hate giving help , selfish and greedy ,, I never got any help and learned the hard way , so I want to be different

[terse haven]

Yea we only use Lux 🔥

[gusty mango]

What’s the name of the histogram indicator?

Sorry for the many questions brother 😂

[rare zenith]

@gusty mango Click on that link and theres a copy template at the top right hand screen on trading view

Scroll the chat

Today i have put gas on fire asking @terse haven his setup with conditions for entries ahhaha

[terse haven]

I’ll share it one more time haha , https://www.tradingview.com/chart/x0jHXfSW/

[icy wraith]

I don't think it can drop to 1774

[terse haven]

Also risky to long here , better to just wait for the setup to come

The right time will present itself eventually

I caught the short thanks to u @icy wraith because I wasn’t paying attention until u showed it

[icy wraith]

i have a good strategy bro but with these conditions of entry i really can kill it everyday

THANKS TO YOU

you give me the last piece of the puzzle

RESPECT

[gusty mango]

Will be home in 2 hours and will copy and give it a wirl, thanks in advance lads

[terse haven]

I know someone asked earlier if I was long on gold because it looked like it was going to go up and I told them no because histogram hasn’t met conditions

This is why it’s important to follow the rules 100% , if u get overconfident and ignore a simple rule then u will likely lose

Always be patient, take ur time to make the right decision, don’t blindly follow emotions and try to catch a move sooner than needed

[gusty mango]

Where are you guys from?

[terse haven]

Ur welcome im glad I was able to help you improve in some way 📈

[feral herald]

When I click the link you sent to copy your layout it just takes me to the regular home page of trading view

[terse haven]

Are u logged in to ur account

[gusty mango]

How do you decide your SL? I normally just use recent swing high/low

[feral herald]

Yeah 100%

[terse haven]

I set SL on the most recent orderblock

[terse haven]

Okay let me check and re share

@feral herald check this one https://www.tradingview.com/chart/x0jHXfSW/

[gusty mango]

Ah okey, do you find them yourselves or does the indicator also provide that

[icy wraith]

Italy

[gusty mango]

Order block on HTF I suppose?

[terse haven]

The pac indicator provides the orderblocks

[gusty mango]

Oh sick I came back from Milan last week

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven hi javielito it me again lol, just a quick question I want to set alerts for string buy and sell signals using your setting but I can see that the signal don't show up on the chart but you have enabled the settings

[terse haven]

Im using the 5min tf , since these trades are small swings and scalps , I don’t want a big SL from a htf orderblock

[gusty mango]

Okey, haven’t used the pac indicator before so need to have a go with it when I get home

[lethal palm]

what are the rules to this strategy?

[terse haven]

@stoic raptor go to the lux premium settings and on signal mode change it to confirmation + exits and you will see the signals

[stoic raptor]

@terse haven thanks again when we make it, I'm defo coming to see you 🔥🔥🔥

If that ok, just to thank you or I send your a Christmas gift 🙌🙌

You

[unborn wing]

Thank you @terse haven much appreciated 🙂

[gusty mango]

I have my own company but would want to make some extra cash on the side with trading

[feral herald]

Hey @terse haven check your dm whenever you’re free?

[icy wraith]

From what prop firm you grab money bro?

[terse haven]

Got it

[terse haven]

My favorite is MyForexFunds

[icy wraith]

I'm using the funded trader

Program

[terse haven]

I was using them but I prefer MyForexFunds, thefundedtrader is great but server lags for me , froze on me a few times in the middle of some trades so I stopped using them

[upper jungle]

Could you explain what u mean by prop firm? 🙂 Im rather new

[terse haven]

Prop Banks, brokers , they lend you their capital to trade and you keep 70-90% of the profits

It’s not that simple either, you actually gotta prove you are a consistent and profitable trader to get funded

[upper jungle]

Ahh that makes sense - Sounds lucrative for both parties! - If everything goes well

[gusty mango]

You basically have to pass a ‘test’ to get funded

[terse haven]

Yes , if you are profitable and able to follow their rules , drawdown, max loss , ect you can take advantage of it

[terse haven]

Exactly

[gusty mango]

You could always use your own funds if you wouldn’t want to be tied to a party

Start with a small capital and grow it out

[upper jungle]

Yeah, thats what i'm doing - Gotta learn the rules of the game at first

^^

[gusty mango]

Know some guys in my circle that started with 200 bucks and went to 100k plus

[terse haven]

You also pay to get the challenge and if violate any rules u lose the money and have to start over , so only get one if you know u can pass/ otherwise don’t even try or they just gonna end up keeping ur initial fee

[gusty mango]

Without prop funded

Funds*

[terse haven]

True you can grow your own account,

but can’t argue with being funded with 100k - 300k ect , If u are profitable and want to scale fast than funded is the way to go in my opinion

[gusty mango]

Definitely agreed, I know they didn’t want to be tied for tax purposes 😆

Also @upper jungle

If you are very new to forex

You should check babypips

They have a very good free course

It’s time consuming but it gives you a very stable start

[upper jungle]

Yeah thanks - I've played around with BreakFree Trading - It is nice, but you primarily learn their way of doing it, and cannot shape your own style

Like LuxAlgo way better

[gusty mango]

My personal opinion is, know how to trade the basics first

Then move on to the deep stuff

In any case, it taught me a lot

When I was at 0

[upper jungle]

Thanks man!

Which broker r u guys using?

[lethal palm]

osprey

[gusty mango]

Im using vantage fx

[exotic pasture]

I tried oanda paper trading with my usual lux indicators I use for stocks/options. Might have taken a paper account from 100k to 0 in record time.

[gusty mango]

😂😂😂😂

[gusty mango]

Mostly because I have IOS and mt4 isn’t allowed in my country on iOS (god knows why) and their trader is clean

[terse haven]

Have u ever had the mt4 app on ur iOS before ?? They removed it for us in the USA but I still have it , as long as u had it before they took it down I can show u how to re download it 😉

[gusty mango]

I had it before but not on this phone

Recently got a new one

[terse haven]

But same iCloud?

[gusty mango]

Yeah but fuck I never use iCloud 😂

[terse haven]

Doesn’t matter as long it’s the same email

[gusty mango]

Yeah it is

Dm?

[terse haven]

I’ll share it here incase anyone else need to re download their mt4 or mt5

[gusty mango]

👍🏻

[icy wraith]

I would say learn risk management first. Can't trade a blown account. Once I got a grip of proper risk management trading became way less stressful.

[gusty mango]

The course teaches risk management also

It’s highly dependent of personal views ofcourse

Personally I’d say don’t risk more then 3-5% on a trade

[icy wraith]

For someone just starting out I would say 1 to 2%. I personally only risk 0.5 to 0.75%. My trading style allows me tight stop losses.

[gusty mango]

I mean for someone just starting just paper trade right

Play around

Biggest reason people blow their accounts is because they get emotional

Try to win back the losses etc

That’s the hardest part

[terse haven]

Go to your App Store and click on the profile icon , then go to purchased, then click where it says not on this iPhone and you should be able to download MT4/MT5 @gusty mango

[gusty mango]

Alright thanks, will try when I’m done for the day

[icy wraith]

100% true.

[tawny sandal]

you need the Lux pro tag man 😁

[terse haven]

I really like the black badge , black is my favorite color lol

[tawny sandal]

yeah, mine too
how many years have you been in the game? 3?

[terse haven]

Trading 4years , with lux not even a whole month yet

And I feel like I’ve been here forever ♾️

[gusty mango]

What’s ur experience with Lux so far?

[tawny sandal]

was your strategy a lot different before lux?

[terse haven]

The best ! No other words , it gave me simplicity, better trading

I always been a price action trader , my strategy is consistent to how I trade with Lux , i always been a reversal trader just that lux makes it more clear and stress free , so simple and clean charting, it does it all for you , gives you proper TP and SL levels , better clear direction of trend , market structure

Those are things that as a trader you need to learn , but they make it so easy for us, we just need to take the best possible setups @tawny sandal

When I mean gives you proper SL and Tp im referring to the orderblocks , they are good levels for your targets

[tawny sandal]

indeed

what do you think about POC levels? May be good targets for price to revisit

[terse haven]

When I talk about order blocks I’m actually referring to PAC levels , those are where I try to take profit if my trailing doesn’t take me out first

[tawny sandal]

with poc i mean the levels with the most volume

[terse haven]

Ohh sorry I tought u miss typed

Well tbh I don’t use that so I can’t really give u a proper answer to your question

But you should expect price is likely to come back to where it had the most volume , it’s kinda the same as orderblocks

[tawny sandal]

@terse haven i think most of the success or failure of a strategy comes from the asset on which that strategy is being used... same strategy, different results on different assets

[terse haven]

I agree , not every strategy works for any asset , I know for sure that the strategy im using works great on the pairs I personally like to watch but I set it up on gold

My strategy on crypto is useless

At least for btc it doesn’t work i really haven’t tested altcoins

I know everyone thinks differently and have their own preferences But compared to stocks and crypto , I believe forex is the easiest to read

And metals

[tawny sandal]

gold is kinda trending, like the jpy pairs... which pairs do you watch?

[terse haven]

Eurusd, Gbpusd, usdjpy, gold and rarely us30

[tawny sandal]

i like gbp jpy and usd jpy... never looked into gold but i will definitely start, the price action looks clean

[terse haven]

Gold moves nice and almost all the time is very predictable, easy to spot good trades

[terse haven]

Gold still dropping I wish I held onto that one

[rare zenith]

Not to stick the knife in a bit deeper or anything but how much would you have been up?

[royal rain]

I'm going to guess north of 100k

[terse haven]

Imma delete it im not really trynna flex it but yea would’ve been a lot

[royal rain]

@terse haven your setup has helped me make 2.5% on my account today. Thank you again! I only joined today and cannot believe how well this group operates and shares! 👏🏻

[terse haven]

That is awesome, I’m glad your experience here was a great start 💯

[royal rain]

EJ, EG and UJ all approaching overbought and about to fall on the 4H and 1H Tf's... could be some nice scope for hunting the drops for fellow scalpers.

4H TF on LHS, 1H TF on RHS

[gusty mango]

Most forex traders tend to stay away from crypto anyway

@terse haven Just got home, digging in the chat to find the requirements you trade on xD

[echo kiln]

Neo trend trades, works most of the times 😁 (back to Lux basics)

(trend catcher a little wacky though) 🤷🏻‍♂️

[gusty mango]

@terse haven

one last question

do you have any alerts set up on thisa?

[ebon stratus]

True man

[gusty mango]

Anyone seeing anything interesting

[astral wing]

Shorting eurusd to 1.35000

Looks good

[gusty mango]

Looking to see if usdchf resistance wil hold

On 5m

[gusty mango]

1.35?

[astral wing]

Look at 4hr

Comin to the test the parity

Don't take thus as financial advise

[gusty mango]

No worries I don’t trade that long term 😂

[astral wing]

Lol

[sly pine]

guys, which indicator from lux and settings, do u find best?

[gusty mango]

entered long on GBPUSD tp set on 1.22350

[royal rain]

Scroll back seven hours, @terse haven explains his. We all seem to be smashing it on that set up

[analog smelt]

Is this POC possible with LuxAlgo?

[echo kiln]

There’s a few LUX volume profile indicators that plot POC’s.

[analog smelt]

Thanks

[echo kiln]

There’s one in Legacy Overlays, and another detailed version in a separate free Volume Profile Lux Indicator.

[native mirage]

Hi whats makes you not take this..? if base on chart you got choch on left green stoch solid green candle above trend catcher. But trend tracer didn’t agree. So its like 4 confluences .. thanks for your input.

[mellow crystal]

Yo guys, what does the discount, equilibrium and premium mean?? nvm found it. for anyone who wants to know this video explains it in 1 minute. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/b0r9W7kEFc4

[random nova]

slingshot

[tawny sandal]

Or the one from trading view, search for the periodic volume profile

[past acorn]

🤝

[full condor]

for me, IMHO, this currently will be the best option to use POC. Just set it up that would cater to your chart timeframe accordingly. IMO with PAC - there is no need for profile, all you need is POC. I would recommend use Period Daily on anything lower than H1 and Period Weekly for H1 and H4 and so on and so forth.

Important is to know if those POC were mitigated, then the nearby POCs will be your next levels to watch out for.

PAC with POC, will make your technical trading truly an informative way to trade.

For me, this is an art of trading - the beauty of LuxAlgo Premium PAC combining with VPs POC

[native mirage]

solid strategy really thanks to javilieto 🙂

[spice prawn]

I see,the result so far ok after using lux?

[gusty mango]

Bought it like 2 days ago hahaha

[spice prawn]

Haha,yeah I just bought yesterday

[odd dragon]

Hello everyone, just bought it as well and excited to see the indicators and how it will help. Now waiting for the manual approval on trading view to use the indicator

[full condor]

I am doing FTMO, for about few months now. My approach was to do it in intraday not day trading nor swing, to avoid the overlapping of Daily DD (5% is a bit tight). I normally start with 3:1 or 2:1 then if trades went in my favour, I will just let it run and raise my RRR to 5:1 or even up to 10:1. Sometimes you will catch that nice break .

[crystal pivot]

Damn GBP JPY dumping

[full condor]

Any JPY actually

[gusty mango]

50% on the bankroll this morning

[crystal pivot]

Just found out about this..I cant believe a simple bb with 200 EMA and MACD strategy can be so good

🧐 🤔

too bad i didnt know about it until now or i wouldve caught those 3 trades 1 to 2.5 rr lol

Yea I want to start trading with the trend. Reversal trading is too scary

[rare zenith]

Shorting USDCHF

[gusty mango]

Went long on GBPUSD

Closed

[atomic stratus]

So what's this all about!?

[jaunty sail]

@gusty mango any tips

[crystal pivot]

New strategy im working on lol that follows the trend and catching pullbacks with the bollinger bands and Lux MacD

[gusty mango]

What kind of tips?

[atomic stratus]

Certainly looks promising, how did you go yesterday with your testing?

[jaunty sail]

Your killing result, any particular strategy @gusty mango

[crystal pivot]

Lost 2 trades yesterday and today i lost another 2 and missed a win lol

[icy wraith]

@terse haven

[gusty mango]

Sick, I would probably take profits at that order zone tho

Might go short on gold soon

Which pair is this @icy wraith

[native mirage]

YES YES EARLY BIRD CATCHER PROFIT!! i feel like i want to take the challege to where you will get funded what broker or company is recommended?

[atomic stratus]

Damn, different strat though? With the bollinger band one your working on what do you wait for with the MACD, the cross of lines or cross under?

[icy wraith]

gold

closed in early tp

[kind folio]

Nice 🔥 , but the first oscillator it´s not MACD, it´s the advanced oscillator

[icy wraith]

i use funded trader program , also my forex fund is good

[kind folio]

trying to figure it out a good exit signal for this strategy

[terse haven]

Took the same trade 🔥📈

[native mirage]

yeah thats advance histogram my bad got use too calling it macd lol

[native mirage]

thanks i will take a look in to that

[native mirage]

i have fix target. 1:1.5 ratio for scalping. for first tp and seconnd tp will be trail stop to next m15 OB which ever comes first

[terse haven]

3 small trades all winners same strat

[icy wraith]

same trade bro the last

[icy wraith]

lol

amazing

[terse haven]

Liking the setup ?

[icy wraith]

is perfect for me bro

no uncertainties

when i trade now

[terse haven]

It’s very simple and effective if u just follow the rules

[native mirage]

perfect brother without you im perosnally lost. been trying to find strategy that suits me took me 2 years till i found yours thanks for sharing that brother and big thanks as well to lux algo!!!

[icy wraith]

We have to make a gift to @terse haven

[rare zenith]

@terse haven changing lives over here within the first day of releasing your strat

[dim hornet]

@terse haven could you please explain rules of your stretgy in simple words. Im sorry to bother coz im not a pro.

[native mirage]

i think the second part now is to really believe in the set up i will try to size up a little bit. still targeting 1% a day with this strategy

i will take the liberty to explain all this credit to mr.javielitofx and lux algo. this is the confluences you must have.. 1.advance oscilator histogram must cross above 70 2. stochastic ocsilator must agree as well.. 3.trend catcher(for me i add trend tracer for extra confirmation) 4. on your left you must have BOS or chOch. were using 5min time frame.. when you see al the confluences your entry is when 5mins candle close solid candle color.see picture example. AGAIN! big thanks to mr javielito and LUX ALGO!

[dim hornet]

Thanks so much @native mirage for sparing time for me. It really become easier for me to understand. You guys are really so helpful and amazing. love

[native mirage]

if we can pin it i thing it would be great if everyone agree

[tight jetty]

this awesome explanation do we add the historgram to our charts separately or is their a indicator lux has

[terse haven]

These are all lux indicators

[tight jetty]

ok i sh

[terse haven]

The histogram is the advance, just different settings

[crystal pivot]

wow I didnt know we can adust the advanced like that

[tight jetty]

okcan you share the settings

[terse haven]

Easier to copy the template https://www.tradingview.com/chart/x0jHXfSW/. But settings is just length 5 , disable dynamic and only leave the histogram bars

[crystal pivot]

Thanks for that. Im actually going to start using the advanced now

Do you think the length 5 also is ok for 1 min TF?

[terse haven]

I doubt it , I haven’t tested 1m but I’m likely sure it won’t be a good idea

[crystal pivot]

Lol ok ill test it out

[native mirage]

Is there a way we can set up an alert when trend catcher or trend tracher change??

Or when histogram passing 70 or 30

[terse haven]

Yea I was struggling to get the alert yesterday but lux guided me trough, just click add an alert like u normally would, then on the drop-down and select crossing after that change stochastic cycle to advanced main , and the value to 30 and create another with value 70

[tight jetty]

this is gonna seem crazy but i have no idea how to find the histogram

[terse haven]

It’s the advanced

[tight jetty]

awwwwww

[crystal pivot]

Its similar to the MACD

[tight jetty]

your length is 5

[terse haven]

Yea length 5 and disable dynamic and all these to leave only the histogram

[tight jetty]

ooooo thank you

[terse haven]

Make sure to set it one alert per candle close so you get alerts only when a candle close on either level

If u leave it onces per bar u would get a lot of alerts

[gusty mango]

Which alerts are you running?

@terse haven

I’m almost 2x on my bankroll today boyyysss

[terse haven]

Just on the advanced histogram, whenever a first candle closes with the histogram above 70 or below 30 level I’ll get an alert , basically that’s where my entries take place so if I like the setup when I get the alert I’ll take it

[native mirage]

thanks men. now i can put alarm siren and sleep hahaha

[terse haven]

That’s what I do , no need to keep staring at charts all day

[gusty mango]

Just entered this one

What do you guys think?

@terse haven wondering about ur opinion also!

[native mirage]

grade b set up for me. no trend catcher align no solid green candle to go long even histogram go above 70

[summer wedge]

agree, rules not met

[gusty mango]

Didn’t take this one based on Javs strat btw

But I see what you mean

Was to eager on this one

[terse haven]

I am also trading Xauusd/ gold ,

My strategy might work with other pairs but I have not tested them so results can vary depending on that pairs volatility and price action , might not work on some other pairs or assets

so alway make sure to do some backtesting before considering the strategy to be effective with the asset you like to trade

[icy wraith]

i'm waiting change colour in red on xau for try a little sell

[gusty mango]

Idk why but I can’t add an alert on the histogram lol

[terse haven]

I was looking at that , almost everything met conditions, just need that candle to flip below trend catcher

And turn red 😈

[icy wraith]

😈

[gusty mango]

I’ve been playing around with it on multiple, succes so far

[native mirage]

what are the most pairs traded? i will try this strategy and back test

[undone sage]

1. I was bearish overall on the market

2. If it broke the top zone I was looking for a Sell

3. STRONG Sell from Lux Algo

4. TL Break

5. TDI Crossing the 50

[terse haven]

Quick 30 second vídeo showing how to set the level alert

[gusty mango]

I guess the majors and gold?

[gusty mango]

Grayed out for some reason

[terse haven]

Hmm no idea

[kind folio]

No ChoCh or BoS yet

[gusty mango]

Resetting app worked

[terse haven]

Not yet , but likely will get a choch below the trend catcher , but u are right , not all conditions are met yet

[pulsar drift]

Sorry to disturb, but abit curious where you would set your S/L with your strategy if the orderblock is rather "far" away?

[terse haven]

Yea I just personally haven’t tested myself incase there are other results, I’m just clarifying that I made the strategy on gold

[native mirage]

i think its early to go for short on gold we only aproching .3 fibb retrecement. but if volume kicks in its nice to short on this area

[terse haven]

Recent swing high or low , but every setup will give an orderblock once is confirmed, and I adjust accordingly to the order block

[icy wraith]

we got choch

[terse haven]

And orderblock appeared too let’s see if it plays

[pulsar drift]

Thank you, I've noticed you mostly trade gold but I believe it also worked on Forex markets?

[icy wraith]

i think this strategy can work high volatility forex pairs also

[terse haven]

It works good on some pairs

[icy wraith]

gold is one of the most volatile

something like gbp usd

maybe gbpjpy

but i have to test before

[native mirage]

3 OUT OF 5 CONFLUENCES 2 MORE TO GO SHORT LETS DO IT ALL TOGETHER HAHA

[pulsar drift]

I see, I'd try to backtest it once on the USD/JPY

[terse haven]

I like usdjpy , strategy is okay with it

[gusty mango]

This is what you mean with the order blocks right

[terse haven]

Yes

[icy wraith]

yes

the order block is a supply or a demand that breaks the high

or the low

[terse haven]

Pro tip , always watch DXY , makes it much easier to know what to expect with gold

[pulsar drift]

For clarification you want the candles to turn green/red or just change color (neutral) too? (+ the other requirements)

[icy wraith]

green or red

[pulsar drift]

thanks!

[icy wraith]

depends on the directions of your trade

[terse haven]

Neutral you would be taking chances, change of colors green or red is the best confluence

[next copper]

How do you find confluence with DXY? How it works

[echo kiln]

I think it's time to you to create a simple handout/doc 🤷🏻‍♂️ 💯

[terse haven]

The only times I risk a trade on a neutral color candle is only if it been hours since the last time it had changed color and conditions are met

[terse haven]

I agree I was thinking about making a nice doc or video and ask for permission to share it here

[pulsar drift]

I see. Should it go from red to neutral, and meet the criteria again for a short and go red you'd re-enter a short too?

[gusty mango]

It’s from neutral to green/red to my understanding

[terse haven]

Dollar goes up gold goes down so watching the dollar is also a good idea

[icy wraith]

we are all waiting red candle on gold hahahaa

[echo kiln]

will make life easier for you

or save the setup post inks, and use the links, whatever is easier for ya

[gusty mango]

Playing out for now

[terse haven]

Example if the candles are red and price in downtrend obviously , and it’s been a few hours with the strong trend then most likely the next neutral color change with the other conditions met would likely lead to a reversal or pull back

Like on this screenshot it was strong downtrend for a few hours and the first candle color changed with the other conditions and price went up nicely @pulsar drift

Of course this is not 100% of the time but a good probability trade

[pulsar drift]

Thanks! You usually TP at the next OB I believe? Or do you aggressively trail stops?

Yea imma make something simple,explanatory and educated , too much typing 😆

[gusty mango]

Losing is also part of the game

[terse haven]

I trail most of my trades but main targets are the orderblocks , when trailing you can move SL to new orderblocks created in the direction of your trade or whenever histogram turns opposite of your trade

[pulsar drift]

Thanks!

[plucky pulsar]

Gold short coming soon?

[terse haven]

Yessir , the main objective is to minimize them,

The truth is that the most successful trader dont have 100% win rates,
Some even have less than 50% winrate and are very successful

It’s not about the winrate , it’s about consistency and management

Keep loses tight let winners run

The way things are aligning im actually looking for a short as long as the histogram comes back to the 30level and we break structure back down

[plucky pulsar]

Would you look for a 1 min confluence to confirm? Just made a BOs to downside on 1 min maybe put SL at that order block once the 5min histogram reaches 30

[terse haven]

I do not like telling anyone what trade to take because I don’t want to be responsible for any loss , I shared my strategy, follow the rules and make it your own

[terse haven]

I never look at the 1min

Trading the 1min is not easy and I avoid it

[plucky pulsar]

Do u wait for a tap on the histogram or for it to cross completely before u enter

[terse haven]

I like to wait for the candle to close and histogram also close below or above the level, i lost a trade yesterday because I didn’t wait for candle close and they just pushed the histogram back in right before the candle closed and trade went against ,

sometimes waiting that extra minute could save you from a fakeout or a bad entry

[icy wraith]

there are more confluences green for buy or red for sell on stocastic, advanced above 70 for buy or under 30 for sell, then change colour of the candle from purlple to green for buy or puple to red for sell

[terse haven]

The key is patience and waiting for the right time

[echo kiln]

With any indicator or set-up, best to wait till candle close, I always, no question. we cant outsmart and front run the indicators, we will always get kicked in the face if we try

[icy wraith]

when you got all the confirms you enter if you have 4/5 you don't enter is simply

[terse haven]

I agree , can’t trust ur emotions or guts just because

Nothing is always what it seems to be

[icy wraith]

then you have also to wait a break of structure (bos or choch)

now the colour is changed to red

[gusty mango]

Closed this one in good profit

[terse haven]

Oh yea gold looking ready

[gusty mango]

So far 75% gain on bankroll today

[icy wraith]

one thing @terse haven you wait the close at least of one candle with the colour change

[gusty mango]

I’m shoring gold now

[terse haven]

Sometimes I wait but if everything is met I just take it

[icy wraith]

now for example we have all the conditions

[native mirage]

trend tracer still not red i might miss this but not going for short yet 4-5 condition met

[torn lotus]

@gusty mango well done! keep it up

[plucky pulsar]

@terse haven would you consider minimal entry on choch then scaling in on each bos? Or full entry initially

[terse haven]

I take full entry initially but need to wait for the rest of the confluence

But there’s nothing wrong with scaling the trade on continuation if that’s what u prefer

[pulsar drift]

You were only looking at the trend tracer I believe and not the catcher?

[terse haven]

In my personal way of trading im the opposite,
I take full entry initially, and i take partial profits on the way till full target hits or trail takes me out

[icy wraith]

in this case i have take stop loss

[plucky pulsar]

Stop hunt

[terse haven]

Big candle on gold , puré manipulation, i got out , trail SL took me out

That’s why I like to trail incase we get these big candles

[rare zenith]

How do you put trial on?

[terse haven]

I dont

I manually lower my SL

[rare zenith]

ahh is that what you mean

[terse haven]

I use mt5 so it’s really easy

[rare zenith]

yeahh I do that as well, thought lux might have something for that

[terse haven]

I know on pc i can trailstop in mt4/5 automatically but not on mobile for some reason

[native mirage]

COM ON TREND TRACER FLIP IT ALREADY SO WE CAN GO NOW HAHA

[icy wraith]

i have retry short

[terse haven]

Lol , u saved urself from the wick up

[terse haven]

I also re entered

[native mirage]

most of the reason why i always got tap out is not following rules. im over with that not this time and not anymore.. as per back testing if all condition met almost 0 drawdown so im just sitting ducks here waiting

[terse haven]

That is really good , patience and timing properly, that’s the way to go

[torn lotus]

sticking to the rules is where probabilities have a chance to play out

[native mirage]

just 1 more piece on this and im slapping my button

[terse haven]

Ur manually settings the Fibonacci or using an indicator?

[native mirage]

manually

[summer wedge]

small correction there i think, double check with @terse haven - stochastic should be above 70 or below 30 and histogram should be purple/blue

[native mirage]

i only use h1 to plot my swing high and low. and use heinkin aishi candle to plot then switch back to regular

[terse haven]

Not necessarily, as long as the stochastic color is the same of the direction of the trade ur planning to take , But being above or below would be better yes but not necessary

The stochastic could stay below or above for a very long time at times

[icy wraith]

i have target 1771

[terse haven]

Im closing partial at the first block at 1773 and ride the rest at BE

[torn lotus]

targeting daily open at 1768.55. will close slightly before

[tight jetty]

check your inbox please after market slows down

[terse haven]

Sounds good 👍🏼

First TP hit 🔥

[plucky pulsar]

💪🏼

[terse haven]

Let it flush 😈🎯

[icy wraith]

I m angry because the spread took my sl before

[gusty mango]

Almost 150% bankroll

Today is a good day

[terse haven]

Always try to calcúlate the spread with the order block and set SL above orderblock to cover for the spread

[rare zenith]

DXY not slowing down

[terse haven]

I think we had some News I wasn’t paying attention but the news were good for dxy as it looks like

[terse haven]

Target smashed TP 🔥 im booking

[torn lotus]

paying myself now

2 smaller positions left. fun trading along some people here

[icy wraith]

Closed

Yes bro

I'm really good to find the right target

Fucking spread

1.5% in bank

[terse haven]

Stop hunt manipulation, part of the game , always calculate spread to place ur stop above the blocks according to spread

It not all lost u made it back , and learned a lesson

I never get mad when I lose

I just learn from it

And try to do it better the next time

[plucky pulsar]

I think we can always expect some form of manipulation around news events

[native mirage]

Miss that trade. On gold well i will wait for pull back. Learned something from that set up 🙂

[plucky pulsar]

You have a plan and your sticking to it thats the main thing 🙌🏼

[native mirage]

Yeah i promise that to my self. If i miss. I miss. Theres always better one

[terse haven]

We are always learning, setups come and go and we’re not stopping 💯 u followed ur rules , there’s nothing to feel bad about , we can’t catch everything

[native mirage]

Thanks you brother!! Also im already up 1% from long earlier so i hit my daily goal thats why im ok if i miss. Trying also so stick on daily goal.

After this holliday i will take that fund challege with this strategy thats nice way to scale up profits

[terse haven]

That is very important too ,,, knowing when to stop is a mental game, sometimes overtrading makes you give back what u already made , sticking to targets and goals is the best thing , it’s the mentality you should always have

[native mirage]

Its nice to have community like this. Lets keep it rocking. So that more blessing to us will flow😇😇

[icy wraith]

Have a good risk management , and follow the rules

No gambling

[echo kiln]

anyone trade/use Lux Pattern Detection here?

[terse haven]

I was using it for the higher TF , not on this 5min setup but it’s really good on the higher tf ,, it has detected some h&s patterns flawlessly 🎯 rising wedges ect , definitely a must have for higher tf setups

[echo kiln]

Nice!

[astral wing]

Javielitofx are u able to overstand the spread

[echo kiln]

the actual spreads should be indicated on your brokerage trading DOM or chart

should be around 1-2 pips if using a major FX exchange

u can get smaller as well

the spread is your fee for trading FX

for oanda, right now, usdjpy is floating around 1.0-1.7 for spreads

[echo kiln]

here is link to Oanda's live fluid spreads for each pair

https://www.oanda.com/us-en/trading/instruments/

[gusty mango]

Potential long on gold if we get a green candle?

[terse haven]

Never got a green candle , I’m looking to actually go short probably

Let’s see

[next copper]

IC markets is best for scalpers

Try it guys

[rare zenith]

Does that next OB (30%) put you off the trade?

[terse haven]

Im looking for price to break the ob down also would be breaking structure or choch

Breaking down I hold to the next ob and to the next and trail

[rare zenith]

I didn't realise that the OB changed that much when the next one is broken, that's where the 30% came from

Still getting used to OB

[gusty mango]

Yep

On my way! Home now so will check then

[terse haven]

This is the trade I just took, all conditions were met except the histogram below 30 when I took it but pretty obvious trendline rejection so I took it then histogram went in my favor

On that first OB I booked half of my trade and moved SL to break even and try to target lower , basically stopping me out price would be getting back inside the broken structure and this current ob could act as support,

I could just leave my SL above and let it play fully but that’s just me I like to play it safe since I trade with high lots

[rare zenith]

Understand thanks amte

mate

[terse haven]

When it breaks an orderblock down it will create an orderblock at the resistance where the move initially started and viceversa when it breaks above an OB it will create one below as support where the move initially started

[gusty mango]

There was no choch or bos when you entered this trade, why did you choose to ignore that in this particular situation?

[terse haven]

I anticipated it , i been trading for a while I like using this strategy but it’s not the only way I know how to trade or enter the market, strategies help you trade better, but knowledge and understanding the market you can predict a move before it happens

Btw doesn’t mean I’m always right, but the longer you trade an asset the more familiar u get with it , in this case price is just making lower highs and saw the probability and opportunity

[gusty mango]

understood thanks!

im looking to enter long on eurGBP if theres a green candle

whats ur thought on that? ofcourse if your done with answering everyones questions i understand that haha

also only if the histogram crosses 70

[terse haven]

I dont trade that pair so I don’t know , backtest the strategy on it to see if it performs well

[pure igloo]

@terse haven Can you please give me your strat?

[terse haven]

Please scroll up , we talked about the strategy all day and yesterday, it’s a lot to cover but it’s all there, u can copy the template settings I shared somewhere above in the chats , ect and we all talk about entry rules and everything

[pure igloo]

can you share link iam trying to find it

please

[terse haven]

#💱forex-chat message @pure igloo click this

Gold hit tp 🎯

[gusty mango]

Maybe a noob question, but is there a way to do it, or you jsut run back through the graph and see the entries i would take

[terse haven]

Yea I just go back weeks or days and look at all the setups I would have taken , and see how many would win and lose to have an idea of it’s win rate over a longer period of time

I rewind the chart as well and replay forward

Take your time to properly test ,, and you’ll be able to see it more clearly when the opportunity represents itself,

The market always repeats itself, learn patterns and price action to back up your strategies

[terse haven]

There are also back testing software but I don’t use any

[pure igloo]

thanks what are the entry conditions?

[terse haven]

Read trough the chats , it’s a lot to cover I’ve have explained it a couple times already and don’t plan on keep repeating it over and over it doesn’t hurt to take time to read 😅 I’m not trying to be rude , but it is really all in the chats and it’s not far away

[unborn wing]

A huge thank you @terse haven, I have just spent most of the day collating all of your messages into a power point for the PAC strategy. Reading through everything you have so kindly posted is a fantastic exercise to learn what you have shared.

[worldly goblet]

Awesome! Will you share it here?

[snow beacon]

guys how do you guys use meta trader

isnt it russian and is no longer on iphone app store/

@terse haven how can i know if this https://emprocapital4.com or any other forex broker is legit?

im in turkey ;p

[terse haven]

If u ever had it installed on your iOS before , and keep ur sane email account even if u get a new iOS you can still download the app , it’s just not available on the App Store

[snow beacon]

damn is there a workaround that? i never had it installed

[terse haven]

Doing research and looking for reviews on the web, on YouTube ect

[snow beacon]

i cant find any for turkey ;/

[terse haven]

Tbh I don’t know , there might be 3rd party downloads but I don’t know of any at the moment

If u have a friend or know someone who has the app you can ask them and see if they are willing let u borrow their iCloud or for them to log in to your phone and download it for you

[snow beacon]

i heard you can open it in safari

so can i ask this question, i register and add funds to an broker

then on meta 5 i login using the broker and i can start trading?

[native mirage]

this is now the problem hahahhaha

[terse haven]

Every broker is different, some have requirements others don’t , some ask you for a specific deposit amount, there verification processes ect , before joining make sure to take your time to see if it’s the right fit for u and that they are legit, sticking to the known brokers is better, I use lqdfx is pretty good I don’t know if they allow ur country u can check

[terse haven]

Approaching end of day , manipulation

Not so volatile rn volume is dry

[snow beacon]

love it, thanks javie

[native mirage]

yeah im done will wait for asia or euro later usually this time is the best time to place limit order using order block

@terse haven i have notice that when looking on h1 tf. using advance setting on default. when histogram is -50 below its always nice to short and 50+ long its like just looking on histogram you already know your bias.. plus spotting divergence is really nice too

[gusty mango]

And we end the day with 150% on bankroll

[terse haven]

I agree , the strategy we’re using is just 1 of the ways we can trade consistently,

But there are so many strategies we can set with other timeframes as well

Always look at the higher timeframe to have a bias and better direction.

The default settings on the advanced are really good as well

[gusty mango]

Today was a good day

[native mirage]

here take a look at this

[gusty mango]

Have one trade running that I’ll let go while I sleep

tight SL

[native mirage]

when i trade my bias always come out on h1 frame. having this lux advance oscillator is a killer

[gusty mango]

@terse haven I have Been playing with ur strategy across multiple pairs

Seems to be working fine for now

[terse haven]

I’m only seeing a small picture in this example you are sharing so I don’t know what was going on prior to that situation ur referring to

Preferably i would wait for the histogram above 70 to validate the volume based on the strategy and it’s working fine that way

but in some cases if you know what you are doing and looking for I would personally take some early entries , it depends on the movement, is it a uptrend continuation or was it a steed decline in price before that happened? That’s my question since I can’t see the whole chart u shared

Sticking to plans and strategies are a good thing , it secures ur trade and if it end up loosing at least it’s a trade not driven by emotions but by a set of rules , once a strategy starts not being consistent then need to adjust the situation and look for a way to fix it

[worn tapir]

@echo kiln hows it feel me being in your chat

[analog smelt]

Are you sharing the presentation?

[native mirage]

What broker you guys using? Im using octafx with avg spread of 2-3pips. Is there any lower spread there?

[crystal pivot]

I’m using hankotrade EurUsd has like 0.2 spread

It’s unregulated though

There’s also osprey I heard it’s good

[steep cape]

Could you send me the pp?

[native mirage]

dinner profit is serve !!

[rich igloo]

Could you kindly share the PP here as well?

[echo kiln]

NICE job‼️

[native mirage]

thanks best decision that i went back to use lux.. i used lux way back 2 year ago. didnt have success i stop.. couple weeks i receive an email i made reserach whats the chages on this indicator.. and true enough it has big changes.. so now is the time to use it right and make big GAINS!

[misty sapphire]

Why wasn't my stochastic above 70 at that same candle? Weird

Histogram

I just copy Javielito settings had the length wrong

[proven nacelle]

Am using vantage very tight spreads nd no commission on indicies

It’s regulated

But not crypto if anyone know brokers with tight spreads for crypto just let me know

I compared hankotrade with Athens with vantage and found out vantage best for me

[crystal pivot]

Why is vantage better? Maybe ill change to it lol

[atomic stratus]

Does anyone know of backtesting software that works on indicators?

[proven nacelle]

Regards the tight spreads and no commission on indicies and commission for currencies is only 7 Dollar for 1 lot

Vantage charts are already integrated in TradingView

[crystal pivot]

Hmm regulated broker with 500 leverage. Im guessing its illegal for US residents lol too good to be true

Yup cant select united states as the country

This why im stuck with unregulated brokers lol

[proven nacelle]

Really why not?

[crystal pivot]

The max leverage in US is 50 and you cant even trade crypto with leverage/options/futures

[proven nacelle]

🤔

[crystal pivot]

Yeah the regulations suck here

[echo kiln]

Yup, we just got boring fx, fine with me 🦋

[crystal pivot]

Lol

[night abyss]

wow

does anyone do XAU/USD?

[crystal pivot]

Yeah lots of people in here do

[leaden flower]

Hows this USDJPY facing resistance on 4H 1D and also weekly level and also confirmation through fib. if it breaks 136.831 can easily give 1:2 trade @echo kiln @terse haven

[dim hornet]

yea, alot of people here are doing

[leaden flower]

going the way😎

[unborn wing]

It's in final edit. The best advice I can give is to go through the exercise to build your own database, you will start to spot things as you read through the posts and analyse the charts. My learning curve went through the roof. And as they've said, you start to develop your own slight variation along the way. It's all there, just search for posts by JavielitoFX and they are listed on the right.

[crystal pivot]

Finally got a win

breakout trading i guess

I made an embarrassing move earlier...I got in another breakout trade set TP 1 to 2. As it got close I thought it would easily go much more so i moved TP to 2.5 RR and it hit the original 2 RR and went all the way back i broke even lol

From now on staying firm with TP

[timid heart]

where is the 70 volume ??

[gusty mango]

I think his question was if he would still take the trade when it hits 70

Haven’t seen much interesting today

Anyone got some good trades off ?

[icy wraith]

@terse haven how is today?

[plucky pulsar]

potential xau short

[gusty mango]

I’ll stay out

[icy wraith]

Idem

Because there are 4 order block under

[gusty mango]

And market is ranging

I would more look for a long if it holds

[azure minnow]

Agree, check on the 1H and 4h TF, there was a momentum down and it's just accumulating around the equilibrium. On the daily, it might just breaks the trendline down.

[plucky pulsar]

we also have trendline liquidity built this entire time

[terse haven]

Yea gold ranging and choppy , it’s best to wait for a Bos either side to start looking for a trade,

[terse haven]

I’m good I just woke up , how about yall

[next copper]

guys a stupid question. How do i drow line on macd ? 70 and 30 level

[terse haven]

It’s the advance the one I’m using and just by disabling the dynamic overbought oversold

On the lux oscillator disable the dynamic and you’ll get the level lines for the Macd, and all the rest

[azure minnow]

It's under the style in the settings

[azure minnow]

Yep, it's easier 😁

[gusty mango]

Completely missed that movement up 😩

[next copper]

Thank you

[native mirage]

lux PAC improve how i do my charting and analysis.. whats your analysis for gold today guys? DXY? small TF look like going down

[plucky pulsar]

defo seems like a stu hunt before the down move

stop hunt

[gusty mango]

What is sterlina

[tawny sandal]

[terse haven]

I was on a gold trade all night finally hit tp , was close to getting stopped on the chop, horrible trade but ended up winning

[terse haven]

Nice 📈

[summer wedge]

thanks to you and PAC and few other Pros here like Micky

[icy wraith]

[native mirage]

second day. doing this. no fear no emotion when all condition present itself JUST DO IT! i lower down my TF into 4min

[terse haven]

Nice win

[summer wedge]

awesome statement

[terse haven]

Everyone just crushing it 📈

[terse haven]

Another entry back to back , dang u got it down real quick 🔥📈

Or raised ur TP ?

[azure minnow]

I think the indicators just make the technical analysis consistent and so easy to read. Thanks for the strat, just started to use and it's awesome.

[native mirage]

THANKS can`t wait to size uup my position right now will do it nice and consistent no rush even my brains being greedy lol

[native mirage]

hi brother which fund company are you doing right now?

[terse haven]

Ur welcome, I’m glad many of u are getting great results with the strat

[terse haven]

MyForexFunds

[tight jetty]

me too

i have two funded accounts im shamefully down on both

[native mirage]

if you fail in foirst try do you have to pay again or it has unlimited tries 🙂

[terse haven]

Just noticed it’s a different trade , nice job 👍🏼

[tight jetty]

does the purple candle mean possible trend change

[terse haven]

If u fail the challenge u need to pay again, they would give you like 10% off for the retry

If you don’t pass the challenge during the time period they give you you can start over for free as long as u are above the initial balance

[terse haven]

Yes ,the purple candle indicates (possible) reversal , but it’s not to be used for an entry unless u are sure it will reverse.

[tight jetty]

ahhhh i thought so

[native mirage]

im down for this.. maybe i will try january.. thanks .. just to make sure this is there home page right??

[terse haven]

Yes thats the one

[native mirage]

wish me luck. haha

[summer wedge]

dont rush mate, bad idea

[terse haven]

Good luck 👍🏼, but don’t rush it . Máster the strategy and consistency then go for it , you can do it !

[gusty mango]

Got some losses in the morning where I was too greedy

[terse haven]

Thats good to know 👍🏼

[gusty mango]

Made back and back in profit for the day

My tp was pretty spot on 😂

[royal rain]

CAD news in 8 mins - Oh, tp...... good to know! Well done

[tight jetty]

the exit indicator was spot on and im in love that it printed waaaaay ahead of time ,

[terse haven]

Weren’t you like at $100 yesterday, you’ve been steadily growing the account quite fast , good work

[gusty mango]

Started at 200 yesterday morning

But my lot sizes don’t reflect my bankroll so technically higher risks

Also my leverage is 500 😂

[royal rain]

Growing your own capital 500:1 leverage is ideal. Ever heard of the $20 >>> $50k challenge?

[gusty mango]

I have not actually

[royal rain]

Called the 20 pip challenge, uses 500:1

[gusty mango]

But I like trading with 500:1

I have some friends in US and it’s banned there I heard

[terse haven]

Lqdfx 500:1 available in US

[royal rain]

I dont know what the rules are here about posting someone elses videos and youtube links so I'll just suggest googling 20 pip challenge.... leave the rest to you

[gusty mango]

It is??

Idk why they told me that then

They said something about regulations

[terse haven]

Yea that’s what I use for my personal account

[gusty mango]

Should be in the US soon so will ask then

Already not looking forward to the 15 hour plane ride 😩

[terse haven]

It’s an offshore account tho , not exactly sure about their regulations, but I have no issue trading with them at 500:1 and no withdrawals or verification issues

[gusty mango]

Hmm yeah no clue, they said something about regulations, maybe state bound?

They all live in Georgia

[terse haven]

To be honest I don’t know , they are an unregulated broker , there are many articles contradicting either they allow or not allow US residents to open an account

But me personally i live in Florida and have no issues using them and i do not use a vpn or anything like that

[gusty mango]

I’ll let them now because they are bothered they can’t use 500

Know**

I did learn today that whenever you open an account with a broker the tax control here immediately get a notification 😂😂

[royal rain]

@terse haven do you adjust sensitivity or agility at all?
