AUDJPY(1D) - KILLZONE AHEAD

Updated
It's a killzone. It doesn't mean you're going to make tons of money.
In fact you have a better chance of losing money.

Unfortunately - I tend to talk more about losses, cuz it's the most important thing in trading to control. Sorry!

Assess your ATR, on this time frame. Know your acceptable loss. Control the loss if shorting in the killzone.

Prepare to lose! All traders need to do that!

Note
So, price went straight into the killzone. The retreat is better shown on the 2H timeframe below. I explain a few things below the chart for trend followers. snapshot

Trend following means that you take higher risk for much higher long term rewards. There will be a higher failure rate but also a smaller proportion of high value trades. It requires significant resources and 'bottle'. Much experience is needed.

The 2H time frame at the leading edge, shows a retreat from the killzone. Now the work begins. Price could shoot back up or it can collapse. A trend follower's analysis of technical and fundamental data will inform of the probability of direction. Have a look at the 1H time frame below. snapshot
