The Fractal Nature of Markets

4h







5 min


The difference is simply how long they will take to play out (example: Daily Trend will last much longer than a M5 trend).


Charts can be zoomed in to fractals, similar to how a tree grows

Trade #2 | LOSS -1%

 CF said long 1h deep green dot, hidden bull div. Did we just break out of this accumulation range and retesting the top of the range? 4h. Looks okey. Can be scary when momentum crossing 0 line.

Feeling stressed Depressed Bit excited Update CF's trades have been complete shit lately. Feels like his win rate is less than 50%. Been following him for 8(?) years and I'm still an unsuccessful trader. Feelsbadman. -1% stopped. 4h 0 line cross was deadly 12h still looks like we're coming down That 10 min MF was a complete disaster Now I'm defeated and discouraged to keep trading more with this strategy. It's shit. Fuck CF. Gonna keep working on TRW now.

You DON'T guess the range low or high, but rather wait for them to form with confirmation using a few techniques. > 75% retracement of last trend leg Why 75%?

From here you can draw a range low, range high and create your levels/ zones.  But you DON'T enter trades yet. You need further confirmation to have a high probability range.  7...
