💱forex-chat

[lofty bay]

i thought it was some secret

right

[viscid shard]

I was told from a higher up that i should delete

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GBPUSD/9GUdw3rx-GBP-USD-Trade-Breakdown/

My trade from today, but look at all my trades, consistent following same confluences

[echo kiln]

Yeah, of course, we understand, but everything has been detailed here for you, just read, take notes and screen shot these posts, you will learn better this way...instead of someone else collecting these posts and handing them to you

[viscid shard]

I told. @past acorn ill have this chat lit everyday😂 so keep the questions coming . Just dont ask for to much . You dont wanna rely on other people for results

Do what i said tho. Take 25 trades. Tell me your win rate

And whats your average RR

[sick crow]

On which setup

[viscid shard]

Your strategy

[sick crow]

Ohh... Okay. Will do and send you the results

[viscid shard]

Bet

[sick crow]

I mean will inform you

[sick crow]

Sure, i can tell you rules rn if you allow

[viscid shard]

If you want to send your rules in here thats up to you. Dont leave it up tho.

[sick crow]

I dont understand the meaning of dont leave it up though

Is there any good app or software for user friendly backtesting

Like where i just need to input data points and indicator etc, no need for coding

Tradingview's manual backtesting is very time consuming

[viscid shard]

Lux has a backtesting system

https://youtu.be/Ps41SQwqDe8

[sick crow]

But as far as i know its in beta and only available for lifetime members

[viscid shard]

Oh dang i was unaware. I cant help you on that topic . I mainly “forward test” i backtest by looking back at my losses

Thats why i leave all my trades on my chart on trading view

[sick crow]

Right sir

Thank you

[viscid shard]

🤝

[vernal nacelle]

Yes sir....I'll share TMS (The Malik Strat) pdf this weekend

[viscid shard]

💀💀💀💀

😂😂😂😂 gotcha

Its really just price action with my lil sauce on top but alright😂😂🤝

[viscid shard]

Dont forget to have lux in your TMS😂 i use lux everyday

5min chart, long term autopilot, gradient candles😎

[echo kiln]

Based on these 4H-1H-15m templates, we know what the safe scalps should be 🐢

Trade with the trend until it breaks, right? 🐢

[blissful leaf]

shit son everyone's having a strat

need to share mine as well 👀

jav's strat, malik's strat

@echo kiln we're missing from here

i feel an outsider

[copper pulsar]

Default settings?

[viscid shard]

CP Strat🧐

[verbal timber]

Anyone trade on XAUUSD?

[echo kiln]

I'm always the last one, LOL - But I do have my own strat (ssshhhhhhhhhh)

[echo kiln]

Yes, turn on neo, tracer, catcher, rev bands, auto pilot, gradient. I turn off signals, dont need them

[viscid shard]

@fresh sparrow gold slayer right here sir

[echo kiln]

They key is viewing the higher TF's as well, if your not, and only viewing only one TF such as 15m or 5m, then just say hello to "Mr. & Mrs. Rekt'ing Ball"

[verbal timber]

Any preset for 5M scalp?

[viscid shard]

@fresh sparrow

[viscid shard]

He may be asleep or just away from discord

[verbal timber]

Looking for xauusd 1M/5M scalp profitable preset 🙄

[echo kiln]

https://youtube.com/shorts/qNqAWlusflE?feature=share

[viscid shard]

How long have you been trading

[verbal timber]

About 6 months

[viscid shard]

I ask this because you can try any strategy but if you dont have your psychology down, you can still not be profitable.

Do you still get nervous in trades

[valid hedge]

Someone thinking like me that gold(XAU) might crash below the 2k mark

[viscid shard]

Not with all this bad usd news..

Gold and nas should be flying

[verbal timber]

I tried many garbage strategies with MoneyManagement , doesnt work

[valid hedge]

I think that there still room for a short today

Maybe not as hard as this afternoon

[viscid shard]

Oh its Wednesday midweek reversal

So maybe

[viscid shard]

Then try the lux strategy

https://youtu.be/vpSjJpCpwSE

[verbal timber]

Default preset?!

[viscid shard]

if you dont watch the video🙄

Its legit 4 minutes

😒

If you have good psychology then that should work for you

[tawny sandal]

Use the scalper present in LUX, then watch the video

[viscid shard]

But if you get scared in drawdown, close trades early, or close trades early before tp etc, then it wont help. You Need to work on your psychology first

[tawny sandal]

Will send a video to you, you need to see that 😂 @viscid shard

[viscid shard]

Ight send it🧐

[verbal timber]

I remember there was some settings according TF's on this channel as refrence

Thanks a lot

[viscid shard]

🤝

Just remember the base of EVERY strategy is market structure

So if anything learn that first

Then throw on lux indicators and youre set

[verbal timber]

I know many things but cant use as a profitable strategy .

[viscid shard]

Youve only be in the game for 6 months

[verbal timber]

Many things but not deep !!

[viscid shard]

You got time

I was strategy hopping my first few months. And what i did was i took bits and pieces for other strats and made my own. Which i think every trader should be doing

Because everyone is different

We can trade the exact same strategy but will have different results

[verbal timber]

U right

[viscid shard]

Yea but as i said. Basis of every strategy regardless is market structure. So get that down , use lux and youre set

I trade market structure & price action w/lux

[verbal timber]

The lux price action indicator covers many trading styles, smart money , ict , ...

[viscid shard]

Yes , its very versatile which is good

So choose your style

I cant understand smart money concepts, but i understand price action. Some people cant grasp price action but know smart money concepts easily

Everyone sees the market differently

[verbal timber]

Many traders believe in smart money around me

[viscid shard]

Yea i tried that and i feel like i need to be in college for that

So confusing to me

😂😂

[verbal timber]

What do you exactly mean about market structure? Do you mean following swings on higher TimeFrames?

Smart money has exact market structur concepts

[viscid shard]

Market structure happens on every time frame

Look at what i posted earlier

I showed a perfect example of how i see structure

[tawny sandal]

I think they just use some new fancy words for support and resistance to be honest... It works pretty much the same

[viscid shard]

Dont be that guy before they all attack you

I just keep quiet😂 alot of , but not all smart money concept traders are toxic , ive seen it too many times in comment section on youtube😂😂

[tawny sandal]

Ahaha

[tawny sandal]

I know i know, but honestly i don't give a f***k

[viscid shard]

💀💀💀💀

[tawny sandal]

Am i digging my own grave?

[echo kiln]

[tawny sandal]

Would you mind helping me ignite the flame here? @echo kiln

I'm waiting...

[viscid shard]

Yes with the funeral service already on standby

💀💀😂

[fresh sparrow]

😭😭😭

[left flax]

Evening everyone ....you all good

@viscid shard hows the plan going

[viscid shard]

What do you mean hows my plan going

[left flax]

We always have a plan brother ..

a new house, car, or just some noodles

what you think short for 2450

then hold you nuts for 24

[viscid shard]

I do plan on buying a supra in a 2 months

[viscid shard]

And shorts for 24500 maybe but i see price going back up

Look at the daily

Break and retest

[left flax]

I agree ...

[viscid shard]

My analysis is daily break and retest impulse tomorrow and friday

[left flax]

I dont trade Fridays ...

[viscid shard]

Then the weekly should close bullish above wicks at 1.24472

Break of structure on the weekly

Then we should be off to the races, dollar going to shxt

[viscid shard]

I do but only london

I wont be trading this friday tho im taking another cruise

[left flax]

Oh yeah nice

[viscid shard]

🫡🫡 all inclusive too, so you already know🥂

[left flax]

You go the the Carib ... for xyz ...I go to Amsterdam .. after Ramadam

[willow jacinth]

hope that the weather is nice 😀

last few weeks is has been 4 seasons in 1 month

[left flax]

Carib weather always good ..even when its bad .. swimming in the Sea in St Lucia was so good

when it was raining

[willow jacinth]

the weather in amsterdam only in the summer

[left flax]

True True

[willow jacinth]

cant wait gto go to caribs someday

[left flax]

I liked Jamaica, St Lucia, Turks .... Bahamas too commercial and Barbados too many English people

*training

[willow jacinth]

sounds like a nice place to go

[left flax]

Diving is out of this world

better than Cayman

[willow jacinth]

getting exited already

[copper pulsar]

Yes I am

[copper pulsar]

Me too

[viscid shard]

🫡

[copper pulsar]

I would like to know which is the profitability of Luxalgo with xau

[tight ingot]

How do I add a suitable stop loss? I start to profit from Lux recommendations, but then you go to a loss. What is the solution?

[viscid shard]

Put stoploss with last swing low via market structure

[tight ingot]

And TP ?

[viscid shard]

Set tp with nearest Support or resistance level. Try that. Trades needs to be over 1:1 rr. If zone is too small then still take trade but me cautious that price could reverse. But support/ resistance levels are ment to be broken to continue the trend

Lux algo has Sl/ TP levels, you can play around with that aswell

[tight ingot]

If luxalgo made copy trader i think will be perfect 🥲

[solar python]

depends on lot of factors imo, like:
How do you use luxalgo?
How many confluence you use?
scalp or swing?
trend or range trading?
risk management?

there is no definite answer, unfortunately. It is more about your personal performance on the markets. Hope it makes sense

[viscid shard]

^

[viscid shard]

Sounds like youre trying to take the easy way out. Gotta go through the trenches first my boy

Profitability will come, just be patient and keep backtesting

Focus on your psychology and dont strategy hop. See it through for atleast 2-3 months

Smack has great lux strategies on his channel

Pick one that fits your style “scalper, day trader or swing trader” and see it through

[tight ingot]

Where’s smake channel

[proper shore]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqCXsOfrM3N4wajKoJTL2G_sojJOl8Vg

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqCXsOfrM3MjO7q7uIiwoVq3evI4neQr

[tight ingot]

Thank

[proper shore]

No problem. I have to get more active in here.

[viscid shard]

My bad didnt see this. Gotta tag me , im not active on here when im not trading in session

[oblique siren]

my very basic, poor knowledge of trying to draw out the structure

where can i go from here

should i look at higher timeframes like the 4h?

[viscid shard]

Thats not how you draw structure

And you should always be doing top down analysis @oblique siren

From daily or 4h and down

Day by day i use 4h, 1h and 15min for market structure

[oblique siren]

ok sorry i'm clueless at this

[viscid shard]

im going to send a vid one sec

i got you

[oblique siren]

thank you

[viscid shard]

@oblique siren

Excuse all the lines, thats the daily timeframe and i dont zoom that far out . My chart dont look cluttered like that because i zoom in use recent price action

[oblique siren]

yeah that's ok

[viscid shard]

You understand now tho right

[oblique siren]

yeah

[viscid shard]

Bet

[oblique siren]

i do but i also did a massive fuck up as well

[viscid shard]

Huh

[oblique siren]

for some reason my pea brain called it structure not just technical analysis

as in marking out support resistance etc

[viscid shard]

Technical analysis is simply analyzing chart based on past data.

Market structure is how the market moves

Fundemental analysis is analyzing charts based on news data

And Sentimental analysis is analyzing charts based on other traders opinions

[viscid shard]

So what i sent you is how to read market structure. Stop over thinking lol

[oblique siren]

how did you guess lol

[viscid shard]

Cause ive been in your shoes lol

[oblique siren]

yeah i'm just trying to get out of trying to pair indicators up with the signals and try to learn how to do actual analysis since my account size is slowly depleting

[viscid shard]

That is why im here to help sir🫡

[oblique siren]

it is appreciated

[viscid shard]

Do % based risk, 0.5 - 1% per trade

What i did is i took bits and pieces from strategies and made my own but focusing on market structure.

You have lux, which is really all you need. So learn market structure and mix in lux algo

Learn market structure and try this strat from @past acorn

https://youtu.be/vpSjJpCpwSE

Ive backtested it myself and its profitable

[oblique siren]

ok so for the moment i think its best to stop trading for a while

learn about market structure and technical analysis

and then come back

[proper shore]

Candle patterns too, helps me recognize things before the signals even pop

[oblique siren]

so that's looking into hammer candles and shooting stars?

[viscid shard]

Yes now that strategy is called price action

Market structure, price action , lux. All you need🤷🏾‍♂️

[oblique siren]

thank you

going to start learning the basics

[viscid shard]

Anytime

Yessir

[oblique siren]

and this is what i got for the moment

[viscid shard]

No

Nonono

[oblique siren]

f for me

[viscid shard]

You are entering tooooo lateeee

Those moves are already pushing

You dont enter

Where would you put your SL

[oblique siren]

i know what i'm going to say is wrong

very wrong

but

recent swing high/low

i'm sorry

i know its bad lol

[viscid shard]

You good😂

[oblique siren]

so where the rejections were

[viscid shard]

Also

Since your new

Do not trade indices

Too much volume

[oblique siren]

noted

[viscid shard]

My recommendation

Go to eur usd, or GBP USD

And work on your market structure knowledge

[fading agate]

hello everyone quick question with the lux signals indicqtor when it tells you to buy/sell are those indicators real time? to catch the entire move or deos it lag

[viscid shard]

Every indicator lags but yes its real time

[oblique siren]

not the best to follow them blindly

[viscid shard]

^

[oblique siren]

trust me

i am a victim of it

don't do it

[fading agate]

thank you another question how do i get the indicator to say sell/strong sell vice versa it only shows red and green arrows do i have to change settings?

[viscid shard]

Go to the settings and turn them on

Should be in the second tab

“Style”

[fading agate]

@viscid shard thanks

[viscid shard]

🤝

[fading agate]

ill be tuned into this chst good vibez

[viscid shard]

Yessirrr

[midnight pivot]

Bro how can I get the black check

[oblique siren]

my mind is blown

like actually blown

learning about market structure

[viscid shard]

Just by being active and helping out. Im tryna get that purple pro badge 😂

Ill get it eventually. Im active everyday . This the only “forex chat” im in

[oblique siren]

Malik mind if i get your input on this?

[viscid shard]

Duh

The hell kinda question

[oblique siren]

sorrryyyyyyyy

[viscid shard]

Goofy

[oblique siren]

ok

[viscid shard]

Wassup

[oblique siren]

so

moving on

purple boxes is 4h

yellow one is 1h

just marked out the lows and highs

[viscid shard]

You dont need that many zones

Ill send mines

I only trade GU and i see thats gu so i got you one sec

[oblique siren]

ok thank you

[viscid shard]

daily

4h

4h is breaking structure currently, but need that next candle to close below first before changing the zone

also i color code my zone. bullish structure is green

bearish structure is red

[oblique siren]

so the first red structure zone at the top was placed after the large red candle closed?

[viscid shard]

1h

[viscid shard]

yes because thats the candle that initiated the push that broke structure

so now thats the new swing

[midnight pivot]

We should get more in contact brother I like how you only focus on one pair GU king…

[viscid shard]

i call it "flowing with the market" thats why i only trade recent candle sticks

and not zoom all the way out

[viscid shard]

hmu

[midnight pivot]

Gold King.. GU king relatively sounds the same

[viscid shard]

beautiful

[midnight pivot]

1% away from losing the whole account

[viscid shard]

i had a nice profit split the other week so i took a cruise 2 weeks ago and taking another one this weekend

gotta reward myself

[oblique siren]

as you should

[midnight pivot]

I’ll get to do the same!

My first payout ever will be from this company that thought they could break me down 💯 I will prevail and show them who they messed with

[viscid shard]

im going to toptier traders or securethebag funding

im with e8 right now but commissions are so bad

[hasty harbor]

youre not using the PAC or SMC for the SD zones?

[viscid shard]

no

i draw my own structure levels day to day

i use lux for candle colors

[hasty harbor]

nice

[viscid shard]

helps me stay in trades. nice "eye candy" you know

you in a buy and lux is green as hell

[oblique siren]

my aim ^

[hasty harbor]

yeah feel good

[viscid shard]

the trade i took today, lux was red but structure was bullish

lux then changed to green

i still entered when lux was red because i understand market structure. i knew it would go up based off that and lux just had to catch up, which it did

[oblique siren]

and you waited for the candle to close green or turn green?

[viscid shard]

no, i waited for my entry signal

[hasty harbor]

yeah indicators always lag. What you see is what you get

[viscid shard]

support closed with an engulfing candle

lux was still red

[oblique siren]

theres another thing to look into

types of candles

[viscid shard]

thats price action

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GBPUSD/9GUdw3rx-GBP-USD-Trade-Breakdown/

my trade breakdown

[midnight pivot]

I still can’t believe the algorithm chose the year of date to react on 😆😆😆😆

[oblique siren]

what do you mean by a 4 hour flip?

is that just trend reversal?

[viscid shard]

4h flip is the open price, where the candle flips from bullish to bearish

when i come to the market during london. my plan is to trade that 4h candle.

1am -5am est 4h candle

on the lower time frames if theirs a setup by the flip or opening price of the higher timeframe, thats a high confluence when you combine it with market structure

setup as in a break and retest on lower timeframe etc

[oblique siren]

so where i put the blue line?

[viscid shard]

The opening price of the current 4h candle

[oblique siren]

fock

ok

[viscid shard]

Not the top of the wick. The opening price

[oblique siren]

this

[viscid shard]

Yessir

[oblique siren]

finally

got something correct

ok

so

this is the opening candle for the day

[viscid shard]

That candle closes at 1am

Then u adjust it to the next 4h candle

And so on

[oblique siren]

ahhh ok

so just keeping a track on the close of every 4 hour candle

[viscid shard]

Yes, im a scalper

But i sometimes hold to intra day trading

I never hold past 2pm. Volume dies down

For me

[oblique siren]

ok so about 6pm for me gmt time

i'm going to have to change a few things since im looking for more intraday

since spread betting isnt the best

[viscid shard]

Yea just keep backtesting and find your style

[oblique siren]

and will more than likely look into hour charts

[viscid shard]

Those 4 charts in my breakdown stays up at all times

5min,1h, 15min and 30

I have a 34in ultrawide monitor

[oblique siren]

nice

i got a laptop lol

[viscid shard]

$200

On amazon

Make the investment

I cant trade just on my mac, some people can

Not i

[oblique siren]

i think since i only got TV pro and can only have 2 charts up at once allowed

[viscid shard]

I have pro+

[oblique siren]

so i think i'll have to have the smaller timeframes on and just map out the higher ones

[viscid shard]

$30 a month

[oblique siren]

with the boxes

[viscid shard]

Alright

[oblique siren]

i would upgrade

but i havent proved i can make consistent profit yet

[oblique siren]

gotta find a workaround

[viscid shard]

I upgraded and i became profitable after i did

So take that info lol

And do what you want with it😂 but you do not have an ultra wide so it will be crammed on a laptop

But id try it anyway

[oblique siren]

so my pro subscription literally renewed today

bruh

ok so i think what i'll do is just learn everything i need to know

before placing anymore trades

so market structure etc

[viscid shard]

Yee

[oblique siren]

then upgrade to pro+

[viscid shard]

Study time

[oblique siren]

and then once study time done

we add in lux

[viscid shard]

Yep. Try out that strategy from smack

[oblique siren]

i'll give it a shot

need to backtest a bit and see what timeframe works best for forex

[viscid shard]

[viscid shard]

@fresh sparrow @echo kiln assistance whenever yall get active, por favor

[meager valley]

so what timeline do you all use to trade with this algo

[viscid shard]

I use it on the 5min

And i take my entries on the 15 and 30 min

[meager valley]

do you exit base on 5 or 15?

[viscid shard]

15

[meager valley]

so you just watch 5 minute candle to see the trend so you can choose best entry base on 15/30 candle?

[viscid shard]

No i use higher timeframe for trend

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GBPUSD/9GUdw3rx-GBP-USD-Trade-Breakdown/

[meager valley]

[viscid shard]

Wick city

Im waiting for my GU sell. Just being patient🙇🏾‍♂️

That 1h break and retest is clear as day. I wonder if theres going to be manipulation before london open

[left flax]

yeah ...7.30-8.30 to 247..248

[viscid shard]

That would break structure completely

And no sell for me my bias would change

[left flax]

i just called Saxo ....most of the guys off at 12 midday tomorrow

[viscid shard]

Im bearish under 1.24669

[left flax]

I think it will crack that

[viscid shard]

[runic garden]

[left flax]

[viscid shard]

😂

[runic garden]

[midnight pivot]

Any of you can help?

What is the frequency of the optimal sensitivity changing on a 5min TF… it seems it changes every 30 minutes or so…. Kinda cool but annoyed at the fact I have to go to setting to change every other time I come back to the charts @past acorn

[left flax]

You hear the FED meets around the table with powell holding the defrib ..going ..."Clear" and the others going ..what did he say

[viscid shard]

The usd could have great news tomorrow

And gold could melt

🤷🏾‍♂️

[midnight pivot]

this thing be be changing every 10 minutes annoying af having to change it

[viscid shard]

Try autopilot

That is what i use

[midnight pivot]

I want best.. but true idk about managing it every 10 minutes it changes by itself

Kinda distasteful

[left flax]

I have no c.lue about this stuff .. but love the pretty colours on my screen

*screens

[viscid shard]

If you want the best u gotta put in the work. I feel you tho

But as i said try autopilot

[midnight pivot]

I think it changes everytime price action does something new

[viscid shard]

I havent touched my lux settings since 2021💀

Soon as new update drops i carry over same settings

[midnight pivot]

Shittt

[viscid shard]

Im profitable

So

It stays

5min long term, auto pilot, gradient candle sticks 💍

I turn off the signals and use moving average for entries

Candle colors is all i need

I use the 8 SMMA

[viscid shard]

😂

[left flax]

Ok ..nice little 7.30 move .... [Heartstone removes cattle prod from holster]

[viscid shard]

[left flax]

[viscid shard]

Im still bearish under 1.24669 so im just waiting

You can edit ya dang missed spells

I’m about to turn my life around from zero to hero. With the bro @viscid shard

[left flax]

I was in the crypto channel for a bit ....you know what it reminded me of ? you know when you go the the doctor for a prostrate rectal examination and your sitting in the waiting room wtaching everyone reading medical journals and medical magazines about rectal examinations and shit .......but in the end it gonna hurt ....thats them

for real I thought that exact;ly

[midnight pivot]

Thanks bro! Where did you find this

[dreamy narwhal]

https://docs.luxalgo.com/lux-algo-premium-indicators/lux-algo/signal-settings#dashboard-optimal-sensitivity

[viscid shard]

I really wana go see abu dhabi mosque

[midnight pivot]

Is it normal for it to change every 5 minutes cause that’s what it’s doing on mine… I might not have the most updated version maybe

[left flax]

Will be my utmost pleasure to take you to one of our most treasured Mosques

[viscid shard]

Which version do you have

[dreamy narwhal]

That would depend on the last 250 bars. On more volatile assets, with lots of movement, then it would change often.

Gold tends to whipsaw a lot.

[left flax]

trade AUD with it

cant do one without the other or CAD

[fresh sparrow]

Morning all

We not open on weekends. Go enjoy yaself

[queen tangle]

What y’all think of Eurusd atm?

[viscid shard]

Kinda same setup as gu on the 1h chart

[solar python]

is there anyone else that trades only 1 pair?

[viscid shard]

Other than me?

[solar python]

yeah

[viscid shard]

Reiss only trades gold that ive seen

[solar python]

i've been switching up to eurusd only... so much better and stress free

[viscid shard]

Its the slowest forex pair

Great for beginners

Thats why i told buddy earlier to stop trading us100 and trade EU or GU

[solar python]

seeing us100 from the charts, it will be definetely nice to catch the trade right, but when you don't 😅

[viscid shard]

Same as nas… if you dont catch it, it just goes for awhile with no pullback

I dont like that lol gu i see break and retest all day long

[solar python]

isn't us100 nas?

[viscid shard]

Other than this week

Yea my b. Just woke up

But this week if u look at GU

[solar python]

haha me too

[viscid shard]

Look at the moves

On 1h chart

Mon and tues

[solar python]

about 200 pips from mon to tues lol

[viscid shard]

Irritating

Rockets no pullback

[solar python]

that would been a week worth of pips for me, maybe 2

[viscid shard]

Yea and i missed entry on tuesday but 15mins

Was heated😂

[oblique siren]

damn that was a move and a half

[oblique siren]

whoops lol, couldn't be me

[viscid shard]

Boyyy knows his price action okkkkkk

[real oar]

You're my inspiration dude !

So not really free

[real oar]

I see, good catch tho hehe

[viscid shard]

They finessed but its worth the $5

[real oar]

As anything in life

I understand, having something like a book is holy grail to look at while traidng

I memorised a lot haha

@viscid shard you've seen rsi on 15m ?that voice off 50level?

[viscid shard]

Yes when i was in my first yea id hold the book up to the chart and match them up lmao

[real oar]

Moving average. Lux and pivot points

My lucky 3 indicators

[left flax]

[real oar]

Totoaly understandable my g but it's your knowledge no one will take it away from you that's powerful!

[sick crow]

So what should be the ideal entry here sir... Can you please explain in this same photo

[real oar]

Yes sirrrr

[viscid shard]

If u look at my trade breakdowns

Youll see i enter the same way everytime

15 min, 30min support or resistance with an engulfing candle or reversal pattern

[real oar]

Let this brew now

[viscid shard]

Lux long term on 5min

[real oar]

Powerful

[viscid shard]

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GBPUSD/9GUdw3rx-GBP-USD-Trade-Breakdown/

Just look through my trades , look at the 15min and 30min timeframes. You see a red candle then green right after

If buys.

Entry

You need to use that in confluence with market structure tho

I explain it tho just read the breakdowns

[real oar]

Popin 🫠

[viscid shard]

Im trailing stops

[real oar]

I've BE position 💪

[viscid shard]

Dont think im going to close. Lets see how the market behaves

[real oar]

Babyyyyyy 📈

[viscid shard]

Im not closing cause idk why i feel another 100 pip push lol

[real oar]

Personally I think the 1.255 level doesn't seem too far off

[viscid shard]

Thats my tp

😂

[fresh sparrow]

yeah I want to trade Gold and GBPUSD

[real oar]

You're not alone, looks legit level

[fresh sparrow]

primarily just trade Gold

used to Trade US100 and US30 and lost money lol

[viscid shard]

Yee thats why i tag you when people have gold questions

[fresh sparrow]

Ya, I don't really have discord notifications on my phone

I only really see notifications when I'm on laptop

[viscid shard]

Got you

[fresh sparrow]

I don't even have social media bro

lol

no Instagram

none of that

lol

anyway what's up with the market today

not expecting much with the bank holiday tomorrow

[viscid shard]

Its london/ny right now so volume came in

A little bit ago price was consolidating for 2hrs

[echo flower]

This new version doesn’t have alerts

[real oar]

Can you elaborate

[nocturne shard]

@viscid shard got a question about V1 does the stochastic have to be above or below 70/30 the same as the histogram? Or is it just the histogram that needs to be above or below these levels to enter?

[viscid shard]

I dont trade like that bro i posted how i trade not too long ago

[viscid shard]

.

[viscid shard]

So i have noooo idea

[echo flower]

Add alerts is been removed

[nocturne shard]

Thank you, I’ll have a look

[tawny sandal]

No it's not

[echo flower]

How to access

Alerts

[viscid shard]

Once you do this then right click and turn in all alert function call

This is how i set up my alerts

[fresh sparrow]

I can see it

[viscid shard]

Be creative with yours of course to your style

[tawny sandal]

That was JAV's strat, why are you asking him?

And the 70/30 rule was for the ADV oscillator, not the stochastic

In fact, the strat was updated and the stochastic removed

[fresh sparrow]

maybe remove and add the indicator back

[viscid shard]

Yea try that^

@echo flower

[tawny sandal]

He's probably out of alerts

[echo kiln]

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

[viscid shard]

Sir

[echo kiln]

LUX Docs is everyone’s friend. Search for anything Lux

[viscid shard]

The goat has arrived

[fluid elbow]

@viscid shard with this, are you using.
Smart trail , Trend catcher , trend tracer , etc?
And auto-pilot? Short, med, long
1,5,15 chart?
And

[viscid shard]

Nope.

[fluid elbow]

@viscid shard ok, I haven’t seen this done. Sweet!
Is your complete strategy with settings linked anywhere?
(I don’t wanna bother you to write it all out again )

[viscid shard]

What do you mean linked

I dont have my strategy anywhere else other than my trading view trade breakdowns

[fluid elbow]

@viscid shard sorry, I just mean get me settings like yours, so I’ve got something proven to work with

[viscid shard]

I just showed you, thats how i use lux

Everything else is market structure and price action trading

Higher highs , higher lows. Break and retests. Candle formations, support and resistance

You can find that all over youtube

Moving averages

Fibonacci pivots points only other indicators

[fluid elbow]

@viscid shard last question, with these overlays, what chart time 1,5,15 ? In other words, maybe 1 hr but then what smaller chart time do you work from?

[viscid shard]

I use lux on 5min, pivot points on every timeframe

55ema on 1h

8 smma on 5min with lux

I only have the daily and weekly central pivot point on my charts

No s1 ,s2 etc

Then the bank levels, 1.24500, 1.25000 etc

[tawny sandal]

[real oar]

@viscid shard insider info that g haha Gold info ! 💪

[viscid shard]

🫡

[real oar]

@viscid shard what we saying with that GU ?

[viscid shard]

Oh and make sure its fibonacci pivot points too

Not normal pivots

[nocturne shard]

Apologies, I just remember he pointed me on the direction of it

Thank you

[viscid shard]

I see break and retest on 15min

And 30min

So im holding

[real oar]

Volume tho

[viscid shard]

If it bleeds with news. Idc. Only 1% risk

[real oar]

Biggg

You're right, I'm on BE if so

[viscid shard]

Idc, market structure is bullish on 3 timeframes

[real oar]

It is, I think it need time now

[viscid shard]

Actually

Its bullish on every timeframe

4h

Just hasnt pulled back yet

[real oar]

But that order block above seems holding big players

[viscid shard]

Manage risk

If i see crazy volume ill know to cut some of my position

[real oar]

Without SL I'm not trading 💪

[viscid shard]

Hell nah i never enter without a SL. Not even a “mental SL’ like some traders

My prop firm has high commissions

I didnt know before i joined

😒

[tawny sandal]

#💱forex-chat message

[real oar]

I guess we all learn on mistakes 😉

[solar python]

Jobless claims coming in 10min, be careful guys

[real oar]

@viscid shard I like your "go break even when 1:1 is hit" 🎯

[viscid shard]

Yea thats why i said manage risk, only risking 1%

Aint nooo tripppp

[solar python]

same

[viscid shard]

And if i see volume and manage it before it hits my SL i wont even lose my full 1%

[real oar]

Risk management is essential 🚿

[tawny sandal]

Why did you choose GBPUSD over EURUSD? Any particular reason? @viscid shard

[viscid shard]

More volatile

But not as much as GBPJPY

Right in the middle

And, it respects break and retest heavily

And the bank levels

[real oar]

Playing with fire that if you begging haha

[viscid shard]

Wick City

[solar python]

innit

[viscid shard]

Yep lol

My boy trades it daily tho

7 figure trader

His name is JP Savage

[real oar]

It's a good pair tho, just need to understand it

[nocturne shard]

Legend thank you!

[viscid shard]

Its a baby nas100

[solar python]

and moves on all sessions

eurusd usually doesn't move much at all on tokyo

[real oar]

Thank you 😄

[viscid shard]

😂

[real oar]

@viscid shard was it hard to get into funded trading ?

[viscid shard]

Nah. I took 1 ftmo challenge during christmas session like an idiot. I passed phase 1 then phase 2 was the week before christmas, market was so choppy so i stopped trading.. Failed that challenge in phase 2, came back 2 weeks later after the new year when the market was back to normal and passed in 3 weeks. Taking 1-2 trades a day max

Mainly 1 and done

[tawny sandal]

100K?

[viscid shard]

50k. Im taking 250k rn. I didnt want to buy 100k because i knew id get 250k after 2nd profit split and they only fund up to 300k

So 100k woulda been waste of money

[tawny sandal]

[viscid shard]

Yea so now im basically getting paid with my 50k funded account to take the 250k

[tawny sandal]

You will be flying with 300K

[viscid shard]

Thats when i start my youtube channel lol

[real oar]

Sounds great buddy, never give up !:))

[tawny sandal]

Awesome journey

[real oar]

It is, as mentioned before my inspiration 😉

[viscid shard]

🤝 just a young jamaican youte tryna find his way through the forex trenches

[real oar]

You doing great job sir 👏🎉

[viscid shard]

Thank you sirr

[fresh sparrow]

Just wanted to show this btw

[viscid shard]

Did gu take you out at break even

[fresh sparrow]

Consistency

[viscid shard]

Thats why i tag you sir

Mr XAUUSD

[fresh sparrow]

lool

I have to say though the week before thisevil

[real oar]

@viscid shard adjusted SL before news to risk 0.5% if it goes south, how about you ?

[fresh sparrow]

when the indicators changed

[viscid shard]

Im waiting for it to break this counter trendline

Before i manage

[hasty harbor]

I got BE on EU

[viscid shard]

I still got my full position open

Its rejecting it so im holding

[fresh sparrow]

so just to be transparent, we all kinda have to go through losing trades but it's consistency

[viscid shard]

Forex has legit made me cry back in the day

[real oar]

Same, still in GZ of fib

[viscid shard]

Last year

[fresh sparrow]

loool

[oblique siren]

oh i defo know about losing trades lol

[fresh sparrow]

But I've learned sometimes people just try to not make losing trades

impossible

even the trade I did there

I got wicked out my liquidity grab

[real oar]

So true

[fresh sparrow]

but yeah I've taken my porifts now and am just holding to see what happens at next order block.

I knew a sell was coming though

but I factored in the risk

lost £30 on liquidity grab

but then doubled profit on the way down

I'm trading with my own money btw

and I have a good job

so I can afford little mistakes here and there

[real oar]

Same

[fresh sparrow]

even in those losses there, the sea of read I call it, I lost around £200

but I've already gained it back and more, last two days

so it's all good

[real oar]

If that's ammount you're happy to lose and comfortable to see, you do you 🙂

[fresh sparrow]

I wasn't comfortable but, it raised what @echo kiln said

I was way too reliant on Jav Stra

that when the indicator changed, I was kinda in no mans land

[viscid shard]

Now i managed

Should bleed

[fresh sparrow]

most of the time as well, if I have a large amount of losses, I'll eventually move to demo

[real oar]

I'm out

@viscid shard rip setup

[fresh sparrow]

let's go!

[viscid shard]

Aint trippin .im up for the week

[real oar]

Same 😁

[tawny sandal]

So what's your strat now? What did you change?

[real oar]

In fact 0.10% lose on this @viscid shard manage risk is key

[fresh sparrow]

nice trade there on GOLD minus the grab haha

[fresh sparrow]

my risk is a bit more

[real oar]

Mine was too G, managed to adjust everything before big punch

As someone above mentioned nothing is perfect 😉

[fresh sparrow]

This was the trade I took

[oblique siren]

damn wth is happening in gu rn

[viscid shard]

News is saying the dollar is holding due to expecting good news tomorrow

Im done for the week. Usually if i take 1 loss ill re enter but not on this kinda week

Take my 2% in profit axx on

[real oar]

Done for the week too

[tawny sandal]

On 300K will be 6K a week

[real oar]

Yea ^^

Good that 😉

[tawny sandal]

[viscid shard]

My boy, i know. I cant wait😂

With my strat i did the math , ill average like 25k a month lol

[real oar]

Little goes a long way 🎯
