Asian Range | Liquidity Trap | FVG & London OpenHey folks I hope you're all good and making some good untraditional profits 😉 Here is a model that you will find few days every trading week! {Terms used in this Idea} Asian Range: a time span from 19:00 to 00:00 NY Time that forms every day except for Mondays.. Usually price taking of Asian Range's high or low means liquidity is taken and price "could" reverse short-term if that agrees with our daily bias.. London Open: Time span from 02:00 to 05:00 NY Time when the market is very acrive. Price usually forms high or low of day during London Open.. FVG: Fair value gab is a gab that forms between two candles separated by a third candle forming the gab (blue-shaded boxes on chart) If you found that useful give it a ♥️LIKE♥️ 💙Thank You💙 Glad to hear from you in comments✍️

London Open Killzone Liquidity Build and FVG Hello Traders! What I shared with you happens on most days of the week and is a super easy way to get trdaes that are highly probable.. London Open Killzone time is: from 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM New York Time.. (though it could extend a bit further).. What we should be looking for is this scenario: We have a clear liquidity area..(single or double lows/relative equal lows) and time is London Open Killzone and we have reached liquidity area.. on this case we expect price to reverse and we look for a confirmation (in this case a "Fair Valie Gab").. Note that: I recommend using 15-min chart to spot liquidity area and for looking at how price is performing.. And once we get into a liquid area, we should go lower (5-min_1-min) charts to look for FVG.. Hope you find this helpful 😃 Let me know your thoughts in comments I would be happy.. Be Well All!

A little peek into how I catch sniper trades with zero drawdownSorry guys, I didn't post today, but caught a cracker gold sell. I would like to give a small insight to how I look for sniper trades, especially in London open. If you look at the 2 red arrows, you will see that during New York yesterday, price made a high of the day at the 200ema, which acts as a resistance/support, in this case it is a resistance for obvious reasons. The Asian session High came up to test this same zone, as seen on the second red arrow. Effectively making a double top in the higher time frame, that is the 1hr chart. Price then broke below the 200ema, as well as the 50ema(red) in the Asian/London changeover, when price broke below the 50 ema, that ema became resistance and not support, price came back up to retest that resistance as indicated with the yellow arrow. When the price could not break that ema, and instead ended with an engulfing going short, that was my perfect entry for the morning. 140pips have never been easier. Patience and confirmation are key. This is the simplest form of my strategy, there are obviously more components to how I trade, but this is the simplest and most fundamental way for catching great entries. Boost if you like what you see. Safe Trading P.S. GJ is Bae!!

EURAUD 15M BIG BEN BREAKOUT TRADING STRATEGYRule #1 Define the London Trading Range We’re going to use the range definition that takes into consideration only the body of the candles, excluding the wicks. Note* this trading rule can be adapted as you get more experienced at reading the price action. This strategy works because the Asia trading range tends to attract buy and sell stops above and below the trading range. The bulk of buying and selling stops becomes an easy target for the smart money. Remember that traders need liquidity to execute their orders. And, the smart money is always in search of liquidity to fill their large orders. That’s the reason why the smart money needs to trigger those stops. Rule #2: The One-Hour before the London Open Needs to Generate the Breakout Our backtesting results revealed that momentum really starts to pick up 1-hour earlier than the actual London opening session. There are some smart ways to trade this burst of momentum. Let’s see some technical ways to trade the pre-London open. We don’t need to guess in which way the market will break, we let the market tip his hand and show us the way. This is where things get interesting. Let me explain… During the London session we’re going to see the most traded volume thus the foreign exchange market should really take off in one direction or another. Rule #3 Price needs to fade Immediately after the London session opens, we want to see the price fading the pre-open move. If the move starts fading, we know it was a false breakout. Smart money has used the pre-open move to trigger the stops above the range and now they reverse the tie and start selling. We want to see price pulling back into the range at the same speed as it went up. Let me explain… In simple words, the bearish momentum used to produce the false breakout needs to be equal to the bullish momentum used to fade the pre-open move. We enter our trade after the first 5-minutes have confirmed that the price is reversing. Once this trade setup is completed, you should see a price formation that takes the V-shaped form (or inverse V-shape). Rule #4 Take Profit or Ride the Trend We can measure the size of the Asia trading range and project from the top or bottom of our range to get our profit target. But, oftentimes this type of setup can lead to a trading day that can extend in the days to come. Now, in this case, it’s wise if you employ other trading tactics so you can actually profit from this trend. In this example, the better take profit strategy would be to use a trailing stop. You need to be ready to explore other trading methods to manage your trades. Rule #5 Use a Time Stop Instead of a Price Stop In order to fade the London breakout, you need to use unconventional trading methods. In this regard, for our stop loss trading strategy we’re going to use a time stop instead of a price stop. The first time I’ve ever heard about the time stop concept was while reading the Market Wizards book. Billionaire Hedge Fund manager Paul Tudor Jones one of the greatest traders of our times said: “When I trade, I don’t just use a price stop, I also use a time stop.” So, how to apply the time stop to the London strategy? It’s very simple… If, in the first hour after the London open the price didn’t COMPLETELY reversed the pre-opening breakout, we exit the trade. It’s simple as that, no further explanation is needed.
