as you probably know i have been trying to make sense of his method for over 12 years . this thread is my attempt towards that goal.......

this thread is my attempt to define a relational context to certain market conditions and an attempt to define pre defined conditions to enter certain types of trades. This thread should not be seen in isolation but together with my journal...

what is the difference between a pull back and a trading range? I think that a pull back should be [or is] much shorter in duration than range. but understand that this is very time frame specific:a range of 24 bars on a five minute is only 2 bars on a hourly and that may qualify to be a pull...

since H2 L2 are setups to enter a trend, when the pull back is finished.....trading these near or at a moving average, is a higher probability trade. trading reversals [mtr] when the market is away from the ma, increases the probability of the trade.....and if the reversal trade is during a...

on a trading range day fading breakouts from trading ranges formed near or around the ma are high probability trades.

DO NOT trade H2 L2 on a trading range day......

this is good video to see.....if you are looking for honesty.....and realism.....and not a sales pitch he says clearly where to sell above bars/buy below bars or sell below bars/buy above bars

if you are looking for a one page on how to trade you are not going to find it most of the time it is management of the trade that makes you money. what you have to learn is how to manage the trade, manage your geed and fear, manage your capital.... most traders only manage their...

no markets are not random....but that does not mean you can predict them.....but the fact of the matter is that any edge is fleeting and you have trade in the market when you have an edge. so 80% of time you are doing nothing

Brooks says you need context and a signal. How can we determine context: i am using 4 moving averages to determine if there is trend or a range and i am using a rsi to help determine or judge momentum. Brooks uses only 0ne ema but i have found that is need more.....so it is a personal...

i have included a 14 rsi to help with trend direction. h2 is basically a second attempt to reverse the pull back .....
