Nice, thank you! I'll read this over tonite.

Couldn't have said it better, Pekelo. She's my favorite go-to schadenfreude trader, so anytime she opens her mouth, I'm all ears, and in the 3+ years since I first heard about her, I've never once witnessed her saying anything of substance. Everything she says is just vapid filler with the...

Anytime I try to post a thread on here, the end result is always the same. 3 snarky replies, and 5-7 off topic replies that make me seriously doubt the person even read the title of the thread. But here I go anyway! Worst it costs me is a little carpal tunnel, right? I was reading Person's...

Interesting, I would've said he gets too specific sometimes, he really loves his own quirky terminology. As for MAs, I've heard him say a few times the only MA he allows on his chart is the 20EMA, and I've come around to that as well, great for identifying PBs on all day trends.

I've read two of his books. Although they're repetitive and not super well-written, I've gotten a lot out of them nonetheless as far as how to quickly identify trends vs ranges. He's also got a bluntness to him that broke me of a couple stupid habits I had early on. His "Reading"book is...

Haha, good to know! I'll look into it, thanks.

8:30 to 12:00 most days at the moment.

No worries, I can take it. And I only block people if they're rude AND provide nothing of substance. Bust my balls if you feel like it, long as you're helping me learn somehow!

Thanks easymon, appreciate that you always try to be helpful when I ask a question here.

Hate to break it to you, but I was replying to the other guy whose post was both pompous and unhelpful. Yours was just a bit unhelpful. Am I a beginner? Sure, I announce that upfront every time I post. That doesn't mean I'm a get rich quick idiot, and it's a little presumptuous of you to...

Well, in this thread I'm trying to get at how the plebeian definition of FVG can be applied concretely for entries and exits. That cool with you or should we stick to the more sophisticated "Street" sense of the term?

I'm definitely guilty of that myself, I need to prioritize more HTF analysis, thanks for the reminder.

Thanks, I daytrade mainly, but I'm looking to branch out into swing trading more soon, so I'm hoping it'll be helpful for both. The one thing I haven't figured out yet is obvious: there are FVGs all the time, how do you tell the meaningful ones from meaningless, besides noting excessively large...

Cool, I haven't heard of those specific factors before, I'll look into them, thanks!

Oh thanks, I thought it was 3 components.

Anybody use FVG in their trading? It has lots of applications, but I've mainly been using it for timing exits where I still struggle with hopping out of winners a little too early. Setup in attached photo is from QQQ today. Orange bar = Fair Value Gap. For anyone unfamiliar with FVG...

Yes, the idea is the first breach often fails back to VWAP within the range. Entry trigger is a pull back into range after a weak breakout.

Just what I said above: it seems to work pretty well as a price target for fade scalps after the first breach of IB.

Mostly training wheels tickers like SPY these days, still learning.
