📚 Understanding Price Action - Impulsive & Corrective Moves 📚

3 במאי 2021

For every currency pair, all the price action can be broken down into 2 different waves. Impulse waves and corrective waves.

Both of these waves have the same patterns within them such as flags, ascending/descending corrections, channels etc.

The tip to finding out what phase we're in is to zoom out to a bigger timeframe and look at price action as a whole and ask yourself "is this impulsive or is this corrective". Once you understand that, you can more often than not understand where price will be going next.

For CADJPY, we are in a flat ABC triangle and we are approaching the upper limits of the triangle. We also are in an ABC correction. On the smaller timeframe, if things line up, we can get in at the very top of the impulse and ride this back down!

Try spotting corrections and impulses and watch how your chart game levels up!
