time and price

structure > shape, its more about which highs and lows get taken imo.
had some trouble keeping shorts open last 2 weeks, letting go of bias can be hard but improving on that yo.
careful
don't let your memes be dreams
demotrade 🤡
doubling down
funding is in an hour.. I'm looking to have it closed by then, expecting people to start covering shorts as the funding comes closer and thus buy pressure increasing.
if you're feeling lucky and looking for the triple kill fatality
some notes.. 3rd one didnt have the 1min confirmation, should only take it if it follows pink and you don't mind shorting into a decent volume pinbar which isn't recommended, tp's have hit tho.

nice to have some volatility again.
3rd one would've been too cocky, especially with that SFP and funding coming up.. shorting 3 times when it's already dropped a fair bit isn't advisable anyways, take from this what you want.

some thinking about funding + price in the chart
if you don't mind to pay funding expecting a bigger drop when the its a stupid high amount of like 0.2%+, you could opt to dump it right before the funding hits as a scalp.

I call this the Arthur Killzone.
funding still heavily negative while price not moving down much.. some squeeze could be due if you're running tight stops.

the squeeze.
initial trade hit.. messy thread but it shows what I'm looking at on lower tf's when the trend is bearish, leaving some open which I'll close if btc manages to get back above 5400 again.

1min in volatile periods can be fun but you need to nail more tfs in sync

10+R in here yo
last one for this thread.. why to still keep it tight in consolidations and take profits even if it looks or feels really really bad, ends up with shorts often being the overcrowded (emotional) trades.

if it looks too easy..

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
wait for the stophunt.. then step in.
btw if you see $ETH hanging on a cliff like on that 2nd arrow, btc looks shaky too and it starts dumping hard and $ETH hasn't responded yet.. there's sometimes some 5-15 secs delay and you could market dump it expecting it to follow.
the other thing I was watching was that the quanto's made the stophunt, not much follow up + no buying coming in on btc.. I dunno the way I see it is like the acc / dist on btc was done already while some needed to be cleared on eth still, so must be a stophunt = wick should hold

filtering m/s breaks, when to anticipate lower highs or higher lows.. only valid with confluence on support / resistance blocks.

This is something I’ve been thinking about last few months: how you can review and find setups yourself, preferably high r/r and the idea behind tight stops.

Going to be a long thread.
First off, most of it is derived from other people, mostly ICT’s methods, but the thing is you have to build something that works for you based on what works for you.

I’ll go through what I derived from it below.
From what I experienced, shooting for high R/R can be nice but you have to be really really realistic with yourself and more specific for the trades you’re taking. Stupid stuff is possible but only if everything lines up.

Shared this with @__BTC3P0__ in the discord.. +23R while I was on holiday this weekend, gg.

Expectation:
Reality:
Ok, first of all, I’m not here to brag or show off, I want to share about how I’m making full time trading work for the longer term, which things I ran into, how it should change you as a person and how the markets will keep on slapping you in the face if you don’t face yourself.

Honestly ... I follow you every day but right now nobody gives a shit BTC, everyone is talking about TRX and it will continue that way during 2019, in December maybe nobody remembers Bitcoin.

$BTC
There's only 2 zones left capping price now imo.. if one of those on the 10min chart give in I'd expect continuation in that direction.

10m chart being held in the same way as the 1h to the upside, found those always being respected quite well on bitmex, I mostly play those.
Also note how we haven't broke structure coming from any of these blocks and how the consolidation is being held by those closing in the consolidation.. block used to break highs, dumps below, used for selling after and vice versa.

Don't switch bias too fast before those break.

$dxy about to top out here or nah? maybe a bit early since it would leave that top on the left in but we'll see.. eurusd has been consolidating for weeks, was waiting for this liq to be taken.

opened half a long on $eurusd here, will add if we get above the black line again.
from 2 days ago.. been consolidating for weeks but failed to make a lower low thus far, if this zone can push it above again I'm assuming it was just a run on liquidity since otherwise it'd be more likely to stay below.

help me out here NY pls.
If grey on the 2h chart above breaks it looks pretty game over for eurusd, so from a r/r perspective this would be max opportunity for longs.. break below / retest would be a short for mitigating the loss for me.

Not much confirmation yet tho, could be dumb catching half here.

some ideas and similar patterns.. hey look its Koning again with the 1 min charts.

Just some thinking about entries.

$BTC $ETH
also note this very last wick into the grey box and the volume on it.. I don't know, I'm not long btc yet but for some reason I'm not feeling too bad about everything, three drives into support, lots of alts capitulating and not much of a bounce yet + my last tweets
just waiting this out, if it breaks the lows the play is clear anyways, and if it actually does break upwards there's always time to get on board since its going to be a pretty big move then anyways.. interesting times, no real way to tell for sure yet.
