Keep in mind Fruit is HALF The Setup. I commented because here, This setup 1 and Fruit Method had the same entry. Breakout into Wave 5. simpleseonard wrote: 03 Oct 2017, 19:36 Thanks Immy for your comments
I know fruit is most profitable but hard to master. I hope I would make it someday ...

Re: Clint's Journal - T20 - H1 - Setup 1 - Stage 1
Its a great looking S1 on H1. However there is one slight issue and its a matter of choice and experience. I can see that its been moving up on the H4 chart for over a week. (week does not matter though). What I mean is that you see a third dark bar zone on the AO and its crossed the ZL quite a few bars away. But it has not yet diverged so one can still take it. But that is nothing to worry about in Stage 1-2. All you need to do is check your entry and filter rules and then set your po.
. I have not looked at this chart yet.
I Now looked at the chart and I can see you have been B trapped. right?

Hi
I don't think you need to think about avoiding B traps. Its just the name of a pattern that happens from time time. Nobody knows in advance whether it will end up as B trap or not. We can certainly tell there is a possibility of a B Trap based on what we see currently but never know for sure if it will either end up as b trap or continue in the direction of the trend. So we still take setups that look like b traps. However its important to understand Waves and the patterns that appears near the start mid and end of waves. B trap is one of the pattern that appears towards the end of wave.
cheers

Hi Clint, that's a trade I'd have taken as well, H4 had long wave 3 but the cherry was nice to make me take this. I wasn't surprised that it did turn out to be a B/E trade.seonard wrote: 12 Sep 2017, 05:23 Stage 1 Setup 1- T20 Batch 01 - Trade Number 06
