📌 How Do Limit Orders Work?
❓ We have a few questions about order types, so let’s break them down for you, guys. There are two main types of orders: 1️⃣ Market Order: executed instantly at the current price. 2️⃣ Limit Order: executed only when the price reaches your set level. Here’s how limit orders work: ⤴️Buy Limit — set below current price. You expect the price to drop, then rise. ⤵️Sell Limit — set above the current price. You expect the price to rise, then reverse. 🔼Buy Stop — set above the current price. You expect a breakout upward. 🔽Sell Stop — set below current price. You expect a downward breakout. 👀 Use them to plan your trades, no need to stare at the screen all day.
📌 How Do Limit Orders Work?
🕗 THE POWER OF TIMEFRAMES
⏳ The market shows a different reality on each timeframe. What looks like a breakout on M5 might be just a wick on H1 — or a liquidity grab on D1. 📉 LOWER TIMEFRAMES (M1 – M15) 🟢 Every stop hunt, liquidity sweep, and market-maker trap starts here. 🟢 Price moves fast and dirty — spreads widen during news, wicks kill tight stops. 🟢 Institutions use these charts to engineer entries and sweep retail orders. 🔥 Best for scalping news (NFP, CPI), sniper entries after HTF setups, managing trade exits. Use M1/M5 only after a plan is made on H1/D1 — they’re execution charts, not planning charts. ⚖️ MID TIMEFRAMES (M30 – H4) 🔵 The control room of price action — where intraday trends are born. 🔵 Asian ranges, London fakeouts, and NY continuations are clearest here. 🔵 Levels here are respected by both retail and institutional players. ✅ Best for: swing trades, daily setup building, spotting real break-and-retest zones. H1/H4 closes filter the noise — if a breakout holds on H1, it’s real. If it fails before candle close — it’s a trap. ↗️ HIGHER TIMEFRAMES (D1 – W1 – MN) 🔴 The macro lens — this is where funds, banks, and algorithms plan the big money moves. 🔴 When a D1 or W1 level breaks, entire market cycles shift. 🔴 These zones create months-long supply & demand areas retail traders ignore at their peril. 🏆 Best for: defining bias, mapping institutional zones, holding positions through market noise. A single D1 candle = 288 M5 candles. Never make a decision on one of those 288 without knowing what the “parent candle” is doing. 💚 Pro Tips 1️⃣ Start from the top down — mark W1/D1 zones, then zoom into H1/M15 for entries. 2️⃣ When 3 timeframes agree (trend, structure, entry) — you’ve found an A+ setup. 3️⃣ Don’t let M1 noise shake you out of a D1 trade — the market is bigger than one candle.

🌍 FOREX SESSIONS
🕯 The FX market operates 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. Liquidity, volatility, and market behavior change as different financial centers open and close. 🇦🇺 SYDNEY SESSION (22:00 – 07:00 UTC) 🟢 Liquidity is thin, spreads can widen, and price moves slower — but this session often sets the initial tone for the market. 🔥 Best for: catching weekend gap closes and trading AUD & NZD pairs before Tokyo takes over. 🇯🇵 ASIAN SESSION (23:00 – 08:00 UTC) 🟢Pairs like USDJPY, AUDUSD, NZDUSD take the spotlight. Price moves slower, ranges are tight, and levels hold beautifully. Perfect for range traders & scalpers. ⚠️ Watch out: Asia often retraces late US moves – overnight traders get trapped all the time. 🇬🇧 LONDON SESSION (07:00 – 16:00 UTC) 🟢 Over 35% of all FX volume flows through London. This is where the market wakes up – EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCHF explode with liquidity. 🟢 Breakouts from the Asian range happen here – but beware of the London fakeout in the first hour. ✅ Smart traders wait for the real move before jumping in. 🇺🇸 NEW YORK SESSION (12:00 – 21:00 UTC) 🔥 Big news – NFP, CPI, Fed speeches – can rip through the charts. Sometimes NY pushes the London trend further, sometimes it kills it instantly. 🟢 After 20:00 UTC, liquidity fades & spreads widen. 📈 THE OVERLAPS — 12:00 – 16:00 UTC (London + New York) – the prime time of Forex. Stop hunts, breakouts, trend launches – this is where the action is. 💡 Pro Tips 🟠 Mark the high & low of the Asian range before London opens. 🟠 When London breaks out – wait for the first false move (the “fakeout”) to trap weak traders. 🟠 Enter in the opposite direction after the trap is cleared – ride the real move into the London/NY overlap. Hit ❤️ and save this post — so you’ll never trade blind to the sessions again!

@Sukhwinder Dhanoa trading fee is per transaction and they depend on which one you pick. I believe they are manageable. It's been since 2021 since I last traded fx and I forgot how much.🤭

Hi, I'm a distracted trader that follows any new shiny objects whenever I don't get an results. Hopefully, this would be my last shiny object. :)
