These 2 trades turned out very well. Looking at the Euro chart first it had made a 3 level rise from the lows of Asia. (notice there are no red candles but 2 hesitations where the SM was absorbing stops) The 2 leg reversal candles were not the prettiest candle formation however at the same time there was the 2 legged spinning top formation plus the EUR/GBP had a little nicer set of reversal legs. It was a little aggressive but once the 2 legged spinning top formed on the Euro at the double top I figured all was well. It did eventually run 25 pips or so before it came back. When it chopped around for more than 3 hours I exited with a 1 pip profit as per the rules. (if SM dont shift price within that time frame we exit because the clarity of what they are doing is lost) It did eventually move off and give up 50 pips but it was better to be safe rather than take a possible hit. Again don’t get focused on a pattern. Any candle pattern or formation is only good when used in context of the manipulation Smart Money is showing. We track manipulation, and the patterns verify the manipulation.
The GBP/USD was much prettier and started with the 2 legged spinning top formation. I took this short when the high of that formation breeched. I was a little concerned when the next candle closed up but right after that it gave a 2 legged reversal formation which relieved all fears. Then as the next hour and a half progressed it gave 3 pins to the high. At any time during this hour and a half was a great time for entry also. I ended up netting 70 pips of the over 100 pip run from this recent trade example.
Here is my orders that show the price of entry and exit. Hope this helps guys.
