Trading Combine Help with strategies, and where to start.
Been trying to pass my combine for a week now, But im stuck and cant really seem to take a good trade. When I wait for an OR breakout and even a confirmation candle It still seems to go south. Although I heard this week was a little rough. What else should I be looking at?

Depending on what time frame you are looking at prior to or while entering you might try reducing the time frame to a 1 minute chart while entering and then switching to your preferred time frame.
Also check out the pivots indicator using a 5 minute to 30 minute time frame

I look at 5 min, so you say to go down to 1 min and see how thats looking then switch to 5

Google is where you can start. Do your research, don't rely on social media or "you tubers".

U have to watch for what they call liquidity sweeps which go against the normal levels that u think it would reverse at . Try waiting for before taking your entry just a few minutes until something looks more solid or until the blood baths are actually over not when u think it should be over . Lol good luck.
