May 6 2025 I entered the buy entry on the USDJPY pair at 142.84 with a 90 pip stop loss at 141.94 and eyeing for a move higher to the 3R minimum target at 164.29 and the 5R maximum target at 147.34.

Buy Trade Setup

1. Price reacts higher from demand zone signalling bulls/buyers trying to take control. (Gray box)

2. Price closes above ChoCh/Change of Character level signalling bulls/buyers are in control.

3. Price continues higher on the BOS/Break of structure level signalling a higher high/higher low sequence has started.

4. Price taps the purple demand zone and triggers buy entry.

A trader should always have multiple strategies all lined up before entering a trade. Never trade off one simple strategy. When multiple strategies all line up it allows a trader to see a clearer trade setup. We at EWF never say we are always right. No market service provider can forecast markets with 100% accuracy. Only thing we at EWF 100%, is that we are RIGHT more than we are WRONG.

Of course, like any strategy/technique, there will be times when the strategy/technique fails so proper money/risk management should always be used on every trade.  Hope you enjoyed this article and follow me on social media for updates and questions> @AidanFX
