[Refining your ENTRIES based on MARKET STRUCTURE]
In this post I will make an attempt to share a simple but effective way of getting into TRADE with LOW RISK
If you find it interesting feel free to "RT"
So let's get started
Most of the time when we want to trade LONG we generally look for a classical pattern of UPTREND i.e. HIGHER HIGH - HIGHER LOW which is the first confirmation to trade LONGS
(See the image for better understanding)
Secondly what we look for is we wait for the price to retrace to the zone where it prior faced RESISTANCE and now it will be acting as SUPPORT and from thereon we will initiate LONG based on the concept of ROLE REVERSAL / CHANGE OF POLARITY
A perfect sauce for "PULLBACK TRADING"
But how about finding a way in which we tweak our sauce of PULLBACK TRADING to reduce our risk and take low risk entry to get more benefits via better position sizing
So let's make an attempt to understand how that can be done
So instead of BUYING at the "ZONE OF CHANGE IN POLARITY" wait for the price to retrace back to the "ZONE OF ORIGIN" which lead to making to HIGHER HIGH
But always remember when the price retraces it should not break the pattern of HIGHER LOW other wise it will get invalidated
When you are taking ENTRY at "ZONE OF ORIGIN OF MOVE" you get two benefits 1. You get LOW RISK ENTRY 2. You get more places to COMPOUND POSITIONS when the price moves higher and get chance to make your trade RISK FREE
Let's discuss about PRICE ACTION PATTERN which gets repeated again and again but that FEAR OF MISSING OUT (FOMO) over rides and people do wrong trade
In this post I will try to explain about human mindset when PRICE starts moving higher/lower
If you find this interesting
"RT"
See in this image you are able to see that price is moving higher from a zone which is marked with horizontal boundaries and from there price moves up without looking back
Let say in this manner that if this much PRICE ACTION is present in front of you where you will take a trade
Accordingly there will be two categories of traders 1. Those who will try to take trade at CMP 2. Those who are waiting for PRICE to retrace back to POINT-A and then take a trade
You know why people will be ready to take trade at CMP because of one simple reason "CONFIDENCE"
