Supply/Demand, VSA, Wyckoff with Petefader

[petefader]

A/U long running nicely. Took off a bit more profit here at the 1hr fib zone, 40 pips, and holding the rest at BE for a run up to the 1.0840 area (draw the grey box on 1hr to see why.) I've been lazy with posting charts..will next week.

Pete: Could you talk a bit about how you decide how much to take off at key areas? i.e. what makes you take off 1/3rd instead of half or close out the whole lot? Thanks a lot.

Have you got your entries sorted first of all? you really need to focus on getting your entries right first, it's very important with forex to try and concentrate on getting one aspect sorted first before moving onto the next, and also exits and profit taking comes quite easy once you've got your entries bang on.

I have my entries down, but I'm curious as to how you decide whether to take half off or 1/3rd off (or some other variation) when you reach target areas and see supply appearing. When I start to see potential supply coming in, I just take half off, then if I see confirmation on the following bar(s) I take the rest off, else leave it to run higher, then take half off again at next sign of supply and look again for confirmation to take the rest off or let it run.

nice no demand, looking rather to buy on dips, for 1.38 target

There is no stopping volume for me. What I see from this chart, the first arrow shows a strong bearish dowm move with high volume and BEARISH continuation. The second is a pin bar but the volume is lower than the previous one. After these, there is no stopping volume. I would like to see a volume at least 70% of that bearish volume marked with the first arrow to go longs. This is my view, keen to hear new ideas.

Cheers

I do not understand this chart analysis. Could you explain in more detail please?

Cheers

True Pandras82,
The thread deals mostly with finding what stage we are in with the 1hr chart and making our vsa entries with the 5min. I am not sure of the relevance of a daily chart as far as this thread goes???

Yes, but the 5min did show demand today. I see the highest volume resulting in up moves. I wouldn't mind a test of the high area showing supply coming in on both TFs..maybe a short then.
