Re: Minsk T20 - Banana D1
thanks Sam, for your comments. I did consider the pinbar, thought it wouldn't be a big issue. I did not think of the S/R level you point out, that combined with the pinbar... hmm, not so nice indeed. I hope it turns out OK.fxsam wrote: 06 Nov 2022, 21:21 Nice one. The only issue i can see with NZDCHF is entry was close to previous support level which may act as a resistance and there is a high chance price will bounce off from that. Generally i would check distance of next level if it's 2R from your entry then go for it as you have an option to accept BE if price bounced off or reversed from that point.
Also candle before signal bar was pinbar so might be doubtful. you want to take signal after nice trend bars with small pullbacks.
PS. you won't need AO indicator if you are trading D1. Generally MA cross-over is AO change if you do some testing.

ps: Stick to main pairs and crosses. NZDCHF (I have never looked at this pair in my life)
pps; this trade you've taken shows the lack ofy our understanding of Context as well as the Banana Pattern
ppps: I have included a good mix of pairs and markets for you.
