Note to self.
Gpb/Aud not taken, but chart below shows seed signal near top of box.
Trigger candle was long.
Black line shows the level the Waltz down rests at, - the previous high before the trigger candle.
Then it continues upwards.

Usd/Jpy D1 Waltz

Taken, correct on D1, however a closer look after at H1 showed it was not the best setup for S1.
End result nearly BE.
Next .....

Lets just focus on the Basic Pattern. 2 candle patterns. 1 Trend Candle, 1 Seed.

The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".

I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.

I am, this was just a note for much later, and while I remebered. It doesn't take much to confuse me, so I will leave this for awhile for sure!
The basic pattern gives me enough to work with, once you can spot them they keep poping off the charts.

Think about it today. had you NOT looked at H1. And let this trade do its thing? Can we learn something from this.

Looking at the chart for awhile, and playing about with previous levels. I am wondering if now having the boxes is the answer.
So for this one, not looking at H1 or H4 and just relying on the info in front of you on D1. I have marked the attached chart with a different entry/exit.
The red line is the entry at the bottom of the current box. The stop could be placed a bit above my black line which is just into the bottom of the previous box.
My reasoning for this is the tails where we were stopped out look like they are similar to the bottom of the previous box.
