Good to see you here and keep practicing and posting. I'm not as good as you, so perhaps I'm going to learn from you... who knows...

Today, classic M pattern. Note the high volume on the first leg up high - Fox is active but must be selling. The purple bars signify very high volume. Then not much volume up on second leg.- Fox has what he is after, and with little buying he can then force price down without the threat of unwanted buyers ruining his plans.
I'm still not very good, but am over 50% up since I started 2/3 months ago. Only a small account, but I hope to improve and get larger once I'm confident enough. Hoping to learn from the good guys on here...

Hi ti6543! Nice job, can I ask you how use volume and what your mm (sl\tp)?
Happy new year guys!
symmpathy as always you rock!!!
I now I ask a lot, but can you take one of the new trade posted and share with us your thinking process\analysis?
I don't want to step on any toes here as it isn't what Cj is using. However a very high volume bar indicates professional activity - the fox. You then have to work out if it is buying or selling. This isn't always obvious, and you also have to realise it could also be profit taking.
This is then combined with the other bits on this thread. I can't do the level counting thing, so this is why I do this instead.
I don't use a stoploss. TP I'm still poor at. I missed out on a load today because of work so I stopped my trades earlier than I should have . You can normally see when the move is over for the day.
