Yeah, that happens, likely you just see a wee square face with a lop sided mouth, means it wasn't viewed as being important by it's creator so why want to view it?

Learn in the now - more divergence today, yet again at a certain time, I know it gets kinda boring, but what the heck:

Oh no - not again, third day in a row, stupid divergence, how boring can I get.

Btw, exit identical to the chart previous page - everything in reverse, entry same place again, timing always at session open (this time NY, after all it was NY's fundies).

Btw, the low at S1 was at 8.00 am UK time (07.00 gmt) , when I was young I would have jumped right in at that point, but nowadays I just see the divergence when price hit there, and wait a little.

Guys, this is my puzzlement.

You guys affirm that the fundamentals are already 'priced in', so therefore I must disregard that nonsense, so my question is - at what point did today's NFP (you cannot get more fundamental) get priced in?

Was it in my first chart on Tuesday where I was a seller, was it the next one on Wednesday where again I was selling or was it yesterday switching and being a buyer?

Imo, this is exactly where FA and TA meet, I mentioned earlier to think the why of divergence, today was that why.
 
yesterday

perfect exit today, right to the tick based on yesterdays action

after the exit, sell it off...

focusing on news events is an entirely pointless endeavour

:tossbills:
 
Jonny, nail on the head, focus.

Yer wee man throwing the money, I'd hazard a wild guess that many join in this most wonderful of games with him in mind, then when they search, and like the pot of gold...

This thread title has that marketer dream word in the plural, the reality is there is no wee man, no pot of gold, no secrets to be found, all there is hard learning, and a never give up attitude.

He who profits and keeps those profits lives to profit another day.

Now back to where TA and FA meet, good trading.

Well exactly as advertised according to ICT, he says it was intentional. He has traded himself into a hole so he can show how to trade out of it :eek:

Btw petermas recent posts led me to hunt down your old fib expansion retrace thread- great stuff. Just finished my first read through. I think you may have revealed some of his untold secrets. 8)

This is more succinct than I could explain it:

a little Shopster rant/wisdom:

"watching the funny mentals is for losers.
..............................................................

.........the news has nothing to do with it.

it is an excuse to run price , jam up the retail traders, open the spread and blow those out running short on the edge of their margin.

" bank traders do not give a crap about the news. ........"

i repeat.........

" bank traders do not give a crap about the news. ........"

................................................................

their job is to take your money. ........period

they will run it down, blow the longs out, DB or DT the market , poke it out the bottom for the break out short traders, grab the pendings and get them short. then run it up or down out of the zone so they are jammed. this is called the reset."

Also they can only do 3 things and the IMF controls the max points per day banks can run a pair.
they are not allowed to ruin an economy. Hence the ADR number on the pairs."

Yeah, couldn't agree more with shopsters view on news and bankers - all good spoofers NEED news.

Many equate news trading with fundamentals, different discipline, FA takes a wider view, incluses news and price reaction to same, takes on board the spoofers.

BTW massive divergence this morning at DT on cable, signalling a short - just before the pmi news :)

Didn't bother drawing the lines, yet again the time and the exit back at PP - see what I mean about becoming boring?
