This a reading practice post...
I noticed as I was trading this AM that just trading between S&R seemed simpler and did actually help the PL in terms of avoiding a trade that hadn't reproached a prior S/R level. I can't pretend to have witnessed the trades that occurred from 1135 - 1620 in realtime and I am no longer foolish enough to say "but they look easy enough" but from 0930-1135 and 16.20-1820 I hand on heart acknowledged all the green arrows in real time. I missed however the Aqua arrows but can subsequently see why they are trades.
This is something that ScalpingtheStretch/LevelHeadedTrading has been patiently telling me for months. I guess my head and eyes needed to catch up with the information. Anywhoo, like he says "less focus on candles and more focus on context" is obviously the way I need to go. And to be honest made for a far more enjoyable experience.

Its amazing how much easier to became to not "see trades" all over the place once eliminating the candles all together. They are really just another indicator.
