Hi guys, hope i have the right post here, i've found help here before, maybe this time too!

I was waiting with baited breath for the MM series to continue; now the last few are out I'm a little confused by the Short-Term long entry given as an example in MM10, maybe one of you might be able to help.

In MM09 for a swing trade entry Michael identified a return to the equilibrium of a daily candle as the area in which to look for OBs forming, with perhaps an eye on the resistance area above/below it. In MM10, though, (as well as a potential turtle soup entry) he uses only a return to the equilibrium of the wick of the down candle in a +OB as entry, even though this OB itself also forms a swing low. I thought it might be because in the example in MM10 we are moving rapidly away from this low and the swing entry in MM09 was referring to a return into an area of interest in a previous swing high/low but I went back and looked over i.e. the EURUSD daily chart back to around Sept. 2014 and I noticed that very often the daily candle either is moved away from too rapidly or, if there is a return, this return often moves quite deeply into the OB body before moving away, much more in line with the idea in MM09.

I feel like i'm missing something fundamental in the framing of this idea, is it a ranging/consolidation approach vs. a trending approach or am i missing something even more basic?

I'd appreciate the help, thanks in advance!

I'll try to get to the question if I have some time.

MM9 is focused on Weekly Chart trades, which expectation of much longer hold times or the explosive responses. MM10 is more of a 2-5 Day hold. MM10 is also dealing with In-Trend Trades, mostly based on Turtle Soup Entries (that are hovering outside of a OB). The main thing you're missing is what I call "Look Left". You can home in on the likely response levels within a larger OB by looking to the Left and sorting out where the Orders are resting within the OB. That's why the 50% guideline of the Order Block is what we want to see. (It also lets you apply the logic all up & down the time scale)

Or maybe just look at MM9 as a Trend Reversal Trade. MM10 as Trend Continuation.

It's hard to hold anything against anyone when they're drunk & typing. Mostly as only about 1/2 of the messages could actually be figured out what he was trying to say. Haha.

on a more serious note, Chris's post was one of the better ones in this thread... its a shame it had to go
 
that's a real shame, it was damn funny. hope he doesn't feel too bad, after all better a drunken stream-of-consciousness post on a forum than drunken trading....!

They don't bother me, [member=1116]Jeronimo[/member] . (I honestly didn't know the Mentions thing existed until you used it, haha) Though it's still funny I ended the "village scribe" because I could never get Twitter's links to properly download. So I just drop them here (though the Preview function does all that I need), but it's pretty easy to just post up the threads. I do actually like helping others.
 
No worries, as said not an ict fan, but appreciate your posts. Who knows, i may learn something useful...
