Supply and Demand trading report
Result Commentary GBPAUD - closed 10 September 2016
An excellent trade that produced more than a 4:1 reward ratio, despite lacking entry precision. The market managed to reach deep into the level (possibly due to the minor last-moment supply speed-bump that was created just above our level while price was returning to it), but then reversed sharply and kept running in our favor until the end of the week. Cutting the upper wicks tightened our entry and improved our reward ratio and final profit, but the minor supply speed-bump was a reason to take some small early partial profit out of the market in case it proved to be stronger than expected. Overall the trade exceeded our expectations by producing such a large move in just around 1.5 days.

We got a nice bounce with a precise entry just above our Demand level. The very thin level allowed us to achieve a high reward ratio without requiring a larger move, so overall this was a very good trade for a simple bounce setup.

A good trade overall, although not without some minor difficulties. Our entry was precise and the trade was profitable quickly, but the market left some Supply behind while approaching to the level. This is can be seen as a mini-reversal from area A back to the level (when price reached the recent lows on the left of area A). Taking some partial profit there was generally a good idea, while if you moved your stop for the remaining position to break-even and got taken out during this retracement, it wasn't necessarily a mistake. Judging after the fact we can also see that if we had chosen to cut the upper wicks we would have gotten a slightly better entry while also skipping the mini-reversal, but there was no way to know this in advance. Finally, even with the Supply above invalidated, there was no reason to hold a position during the interest rates announcement that was approaching as our Demand level had also been used by that point.

Supply and Demand is NOT the same as support and resistance

I would like to add my own opinion regarding the differences between "Supply and Demand", and "support and resistance".
The main point is, the novice "support and resistance" is commonly based on completely arbitrary tools like moving averages, indicators, oscillators etc. These have always been arbitrary tools, never meant to define precise entries and exits. Change one parameter and you get another result. Not only that, but they all lag price. in order for the computer to run the calculation, prices have to be input into the calculations. Even if these can show rates increasing or decreasing, and to extrapolate everything into the "future", they still lag price. And no matter how common these tools are, they are no less arbitrary. Just ask the 95% of traders that lose money week after week.
Supply and Demand on the other hand is about recognizing specific events like a Supply/Demand imbalance, and then using that in your favor next time returns to that area, whenever that is, tomorrow or next month. There is no informational gap/space to be covered by an indicator or an oscillator, the initial event is known as soon as it happens.

I think it's worth reading, even if some truths are hard to admit sometimes. If you are happy with your current results, then you shouldn't change anything at all. But if you are not happy as it is, then you might want to consider alternative ways of thinking and/or trading.
I hope that helped
