This is the last hope setup you can say as if this fails trend will most certainly reverse. This is a very rare trade but when executed properly it has the best risk reward in all the setups.

D setup is the bounce of the price of the higher timeframe ma or bounce near the ma , price should not Close other side of the ma on the 15r and also u should have a double top double bottom or higher low for long or lower high for short.


Positive's of this setup

Best Risk reward. Great for add on entries.

Negative's of this setup its very rare for scalpers 1-2 times a day and so on...

It only occurs when pa on the smaller time frame is against the trend ... When price is in a strong trend Pullback on the higher time frame.

One can use combination of this setups to day trade or use it individually to scalp around.. Learn one setup at a time they are simple enough and they will help you reach your daily goal easily. market is moving 24hrs it doesn't meant you should trade 24hrs .. select your timezone keep your daily loss limits keep a target and follow it each and every day don't change them.. Remember trading is simple keep it that way and you will make money each and every day.
hope this helps


Best Regards
Jinhar

So, at some point we are going to experience mean reversion on the higher time frame. This could induce some nasty/whippy trades on the lower time frame. How to avoid?

Jinhar - thanks for sharing your experience and trade setups. I too would love to hear how you trade range/choppy periods or how you avoid it with this MTF setup.

Thanks!

Tell me a particular instrument with time and date and i can show you as for wad you can do ,as for me i don't have to face that problems as most of my trading consists of A or D setups and A setups i only take 1-2 after the trend is formed all other i just let it go as i only need 1 trade in a day to call quits.. So if u have anything particular in mind tell me i will try to get the charts and i will give it a look.

Also if you look on crude review trades it was in a 50 tick range so dunno if you consider that as a choppy zone or trend most ppl consider it chop in crude so again m sorry if it does not answer your question . please let me know if u have any particular instrument with a particular time zone in mind.
