I believe you are right, when you say there is the right and wrong time to trade, but i do not believe the price is random. Other wise how do we make money?
You need to stay calm all the time in this market. Even excitement after a great win can ruin your whole trading day!
provide markets to incoming orders. use to be someone on the top step, specialist, dpm, friends with a broker, now pfof
first determine market conditions-is it a trading range day or range day..... you can see it by looking at your screen. i did not say it is easy to do to teach or explain so it is easy for you to ask how do you trade market conditions. that takes years of experience
Just to say (trading range day or range day) sound to like you are trading a higher time frame than me, I do not take notice where we are on a 1/2/4 hour /or daily chart is, i do note but not for the strategy i trade. You ask how i trade Market Conditions i gather this is the same as most. Major New releases ,which are on the calendar. Major event news releases (NOT on the calendar) . World event news which will move my pair (then manage that trade) if i am in a trade at the time. Knowing when to start trading again after the above. Holidays Time of day, etc, etc Its all basic conditions, but it works for me.
Where can a retail like me get order flow info? I am not trying to give you a hard time, I really want to know if it is possible.
