There is a trick that market makers use and that is to create consolidations in order to induce retail entries. In text book practice, retail traders will always view a resistance or support level that has been tested more than once as a strong area to do entries because they feel it will hold price. As a result they put stop losses above or below the entry and...

So let's learn something about engulfing candles entries. An engulfing candle is usually a momentum candle and in most cases signifies reversal and at times trend continuation.

London Open Killzone time is: from 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM New York Time.. (though it could extend a bit further)..

As the market is overall bearish this was spotted much easier. We can then view the NYSE open where the price came back to grab liquidity from the...
