D1 Analysis 12 - March 2015

Unread post by immy »

I shall try to be disciplined with this. Would some one remind me if I miss a day? B-) (hug)

EUR/USD : big green bar forming. a healthy correction. I think it should be a good spot to trail bars and take profit. if you have add ons exit half add ons at trailing leave rest to close on green.

USD/JPY: Fruit bar on the 10th. Market touched the aims high to the left the weekly high and dropped would it go further up or is it time for UJ to drop now. Fruit is on offer although you'd be in it as today's PA broke the low of fruit. the range of fruit is big but it was big on EURJPY D1 on the 16th of Oct 2014 and after that it moved 1333 pips before it next closed on green a month and a 3 quarters later in december 2014. So just adjust lot size to reflect the high range of fruit and roll with it.

GBP/USD: there was a fruit with a high range on the 26th of feb, no angle but it was showing as an AA fruit. Now remember we don't want too much angle for AA fruits as aa fruits are often the peak of a corrective wave, that is wave 4 or wave 2. If you switch to Weekly chart you'd see a strong down trend followed by a pullback towards gator and then the subsequent drop on the daily chart. I was monitoring longs since 23rd of Jan Fruit. did not take the fruit but took the break of aims 4th of march. Notice that if you're timing a reversal you can still trade an aims level but it has to be hit at least below red line. its not like add on aims level. When we add on after fruit we don't care if its above green, below green or any other gatorline, we would take any next nearest aims level to the left either formed before fruit or a fresh one formed after fruit entry is made.
Moreover, if you watch these daily charts they all give you fair idea which direction you should be looking to trade on h1's. Its so much fun, often even more fun than the excitement of the faster moving m1 charts. trust me. Have a demo account and play. And keep reminding to update you around evening times during the week. thanks.

USD/CHF: the swissy has touched the levels from where it dropped in the Swissy crash that destroyed Alpari! so they are went bust and its back to where it was, how ironic is that? oh well NEXT fruit signal was created on the 19th of jan with add on on the 26th of jan..

USD/CAD, if you switch to monthly chart you'd see a rocket went up and perhaps ready to go further up. same story. We talked about it brieful in skype, we saw price touched the level to the left on daily chart and price reacted and dropped. now is it going to resume, looks like wave 5 is on the table. so if you're trading daily charts you should be long from 6th of march 2015. or if you're bullish then you could have caught a fruit on h1 today.

NZD/USD: kiwi seems to be doing the opposite of USD/CAD. it touched the weekly low and today's news blasted it off to up side. a lovely fruit was presented to us last night if you took it long you're a happy wo/man. :) Meanwhile we are still short from last months fruit down and add on but will clsoe if it closes on green. perhaps exit above last nights fruit would have been ideal.

AUD/USD: it broke into a wave 5 down but since its been dropping like a ton of feathers sine sept last year, perhaps the trend down is lowing momentum gradually. all the profits of the drop from Setup 1 have been vanished by the news spike and today's bullish activity.

So that si Daily D1 wrape episode 1. If I don't do episode one please ask me to do it!

EUR/Jpy: still short from the Setup one that gave us 2 weeks to decide whether want to short EJ or not.... how good is that? same for EUR/USD. and EUR/AUD you must have seen picture in posts above is still going strongly down with 4 entries our best daily campaign this month.

Immy thanks for such a comprehensive writeup. I dont see the same fruit bar on the 10th on your USDJPY daily chart. The last fruit bar i see on my chart occurs on the 5th of march. why is this so?

In any case, today was my first day trading the fruit after just learning the setup yesterday. What a revelation it has been. Very clear signals on the EURUSD and AUDUSD on the 5min chart and both produced ~20pips each! looking to get into more of such trades. Thanks Immy for sharing this technique

Hi

Thank for your comment. Perhaps different feeds but on daily chart I would expect all feeds to be relatively the same. Don't forget forex brokers make there own feeds from a pool of bank who quote them randomly so they are market makers and feeds can be different. Perhaps a post with a screenshot would help me understand it.

Yes, fruit is a great strategy, but 20pips is the "yard stick" to measure this arena!

Dax V5.1 Live Trade 1.png
Dax V5.1 Live Trade 3.png
Skype Chat relevant to above trades you might find interesting

[14:37:27] tracker-13: SAR from 15:22 AA; should have played it both ways from the fruit up there
[14:37:41] tracker-13: see you Immy
[15:04:27] Immy AIMS: hey, i happen to be on the computer again.
[15:04:35] Immy AIMS: and I just took short on Fruit m1.
[15:05:07] Immy AIMS: just came to get something from my trading room and saw my m5 chart. and thought hmmm it looks like going sdiewasy up and down. and then I thought, well this could be the high of the range
[15:05:12] Szakál Péter: this is the beauty of this concept
[15:05:16] Immy AIMS: that got me to think, may be m1 will have soemthing
[15:05:22] Immy AIMS: and i dropped to m1. and there it was
[15:05:50] Immy AIMS: 14.51 was an s2 green dot for Gman. btw.
[15:05:57] Immy AIMS: but perhaps big box might not allow him to trade it.
[15:06:11] Immy AIMS: i'm certainly in the zone today. 100% full throttle.
[15:06:33] Immy AIMS: its bizzare , when you're not in the zone, people will phone you, wife will come to your room, lots of other events will happen at the wrong times.
[15:06:57] Immy AIMS: you will collect rents and when its time to catch big moves, you'd go to toilet, or internet is down, or you start browing the net etc etc.
[15:07:01] Immy AIMS: when that happens STOP.
[15:07:20] Immy AIMS: biggest thing is to know what are the conditions that may allow you to get in the zone.
[15:07:29] Immy AIMS: and I can share what works for me.
[15:07:42] Immy AIMS: 1. Enjoyment. 2. Focus 3. Relaxation 4. Self Trust
[15:07:58] Immy AIMS: Do whatever it takes to allow those 4 conditions to exist while you're tarding.
[15:08:17] Immy AIMS: so your question should e, how do I bring enjoyment. how can I bring my self into state of joy?
[15:08:40] Immy AIMS: it could be a nice video, it could be a song, it could be a deep breaht, it could closing yoru eyes and imagine something that makes you happy.
[15:09:14] Immy AIMS: that iwll start the process. its like being at the top of the mountain and give a rock a slight nudge, once it starts rolling it will never stop. unti lit hits the ground.
[15:09:39] Immy AIMS: i just lost $200 :)
[15:09:42] Immy AIMS: (rofl)
[15:11:07] Immy AIMS: another fruit hmmm
[15:11:36] Immy AIMS: if you take the first one ,the rule says, do take the second one. becasue that means if first was wave 3 thsi could be wave 5, but if that fails. step away.
[15:12:35] Immy AIMS: often i see guys trying to buck the trend 6-8 times ... and then they get exhausted at the top and don't take that one, and it drops like a ton of bricks. (meaning they were not in synch notin the zone, why? perhaps they are scared traders... one of hte biggest and most common reason traders dont expereince the zone is FEAR)
[15:12:47] Immy AIMS: its not lack of experience or technical knowledge.
[15:14:55] Immy AIMS: I've caught a AAA on GU H1 on 16th of march. would love to show it the forum later.
[15:15:49] Immy AIMS: EUR/USD H1 has a blue dot Setup 1
[15:16:18] Immy AIMS: and USD/JPY Setup 1 Short, a red dot called by sam (clap) is doing EXCELLENTO
[15:16:41] Immy AIMS: with one add on its running profit is +32 + 17 (sounds like a joke infront of dax haha)
[15:17:19] Szakál Péter: UJ had a fruit there, I exited from that
[15:17:46] Immy AIMS: shut up peter.
[15:17:56] Immy AIMS: WRONG exit.
[15:18:27] Immy AIMS: its h1. you did not have any profit. why exit? allow the damn thing to go your way.
[15:19:05] Immy AIMS: so dax m1 is looking awesome now.
[15:19:08] Szakál Péter: I will share my thoughts about this in my journal
[15:19:18] Szakál Péter: see you later
[15:20:02] Immy AIMS: 11947 is my ADd on here
[15:20:47] Immy AIMS: its a doble setup. m5 and m1 both showing go down.
[15:21:12] Immy AIMS: though the pressure of FOMC at the back of my head makes me "mis trust" my judgement so i best stop after this.
[15:22:13] Immy AIMS: 11957 is a conservative SL.
[15:22:18] Immy AIMS: if you don't want to lose.
[15:24:08] Immy AIMS: visit to 11920 would be very nice.
[15:24:58] Immy AIMS: SL at 11955 would be ideal now for conservative traders
[15:25:05] tracker-13: bye guys see you tm
[15:25:06] Immy AIMS: otherwise don't give a shit and enjoy the process
[15:25:44] Immy AIMS: reading your post right now Tracker... bye bye
[15:26:31] Immy AIMS: Result after the 7th batch: .... should alsso say Discipline score of 19/20
[15:26:47] Immy AIMS: ok fantastic m1 trade. going veyr well indeed
[15:26:57] Immy AIMS: pushing down brilliantly.
[15:29:57] Immy AIMS: very nice.

Soooorrryyyy :-s For some reason missed the whole video. It was excellent video, as always. I just love to hear how you interpret the market. Sometimes learning something new and if not learning the confidence increases. Either way, a good thing. Thank you for the effort.

Sorry, missed the video somehow.

Thank you Immy for your big effort. Explaination is very enlightening again and even after 5 month of intensive fruit-trading, there's still so much experience to gain for me ;-)
