Neutral would be if price is currently in between the High and Low fractal
Its always up or down. One fractal is always broken either wayā¦ the most recent is the current flow, basis timeframe.
Guess I have more to learn! Gotta go back and find that video about fractals now lol.
What trend would you say GU is currently on daily 4hr and 1hr?
Daily MF = Down but Sunday open at Key Support and Figure 1.60
4Hour MF = Down but trumped by Key Support.
1 Hour MF = Up since Friday close
We opened in the āBuy Zoneā and new week and New Session āAsianā brings with it change in Sentiment.
Optimal Trade Entry was present.
ADR projected High reached from the Low of Sunday open.
SMT Positive Divergence Fiber vs. Cable
voilaā¦
Wow nice catch right off the bat. What settings do you use for the ADR tool? my numbers arenāt lining up with yours, but it could be the platform Iām using it on, the candles donāt start until 6PM EST for some stupid reason.
edit:
okay, found a more suitable platform with opens at the standard 5PM EST, but still not lining up properly
Iām currently demo-ing with IBFX and the market does not āopenā til around 6-7PM EST as wellā¦ Is that normal for IBFX?
The World Clock indicator I use for MT4 is called P4L_Clock.
Here is the download link P4L Clock.mq4 just save to your drive:/mt4/experts/indictors then restart MT4 if you had it on and then just load it up and play with it as you see it.
If the link is broken just google āP4L clockā and youāll find some where to download it.

great tool, thanks for sharing : ]
Anyone else catch the short on EUR/USD (I tried to post a screenshot, but donāt have enough posts yet).
50% Fib retracement of previous dayās high-low, confluent with PP, I traded it (live) down to 1.3480 where previous support / resistance appears on the daily.
Nice start to the day
Caught GU short today from setup (Sunday night my time). Fib drawn 4hr, entered slightly above 61.8 @ 1.60732 , confluence of yesterday R1, overall bias short of GU. TP set to 1.6000 as BRO, yesterday S1, and was a 61.8 retrace line from the daily (a possible daily move up from this point). 30% taken at 30 pips as suggested by ITC (thank you), rest went to TP 73.2.
ICT references a smart money tool. Which tools is he referring as I canāt seem to find it anywhere?
Woke up to a pleasant surprise today
Half of the trade was closed at +30, stop is at previous monthās high now, and Iām gonna let the rest run until itās stopped out. I wish I had a slightly bigger lot size so I couldāve closed out 1/3 of the trade instead of taking off half at +30.
Sorry ICT about the chart screen snaps. I will take larger pictures and resize them so it is more useful.
Hereās a trade I caught monday morning, Iām excited because now that Iām over my weekly pip goal Iām going to force myself not to trade everyday and now I can just sit back and relax and of course still practice with the demo !
P.S.- I was supposed to put āEntry at Previous session/day highā and āTook profit at the previous low!ā
If I remember right itās overlaying say E/U and G/U on the same chart to show possible divergences or relative strength or weakness in a pair.
My original entry was with .02 lots, closed one out and the remainder .01 is now risk free so, I entered again on the .618 retracement (1.60392) with the same risk as the first trade. Targeting the same as well. Being that I have a smaller SL so I was able to trade with .03 lots so 1/3 will be taken off at +30 instead of half like the last trade.
There was also a scalp I couldāve taken but being that I was already short my platform would not allow me to enter long :mad:
Answer to Hordane,
For some reason I cannot quote your post regarding the Smart Money Tool, but here is my answer to it.
As PipBandit already said, itās an overlay of a highly correlated pair, (in this case EU over GU, line chart), to look for divergences between the pairs at critical levels to look for a nice reaction.
ICT presented this amazing tool on his first thread here last year, and Iām sure heāll talk about it in more detail in the near future. In the meantime take a look at what happened before the quick drop of the eur/usd and gbp/usd in the London session.
I can tell you that personally this tool is worth gold. Itās a nice way to know if a level is more likely to work or not and the fact that a reversal/continuation is just around the corner.
Something Iāve never got with this tool - once you spot divergence, how do you know which direction is going to win out e.g. in this example how would you know to look for a short?
Iām not 100% sure im right, but in the example above, (lets just say you were trading cable)ā¦ (and the cable was the blue line lol) you would be looking for the cable to be making a lower high than the euro at an important resistance level. So basically when it gets to a known level of resistance on gbp/usd, turn to the SMT chart to see if cable is failing to make any new highs while the eur/usd continued to make slightly higher highs for the time being. ā¦ like others said im sure ICT will explain it better
