About This Strategy

This strategy combines the power of RelicusRoad’s Price Action (Road) analysis with Support/Resistance levels and Trendlines, using a dual timeframe approach to identify high-probability reversal trades. By focusing exclusively on reversals rather than breakouts, we achieve more predictable outcomes with clearly defined risk.

The dual timeframe system allows traders to analyze market structure on a higher timeframe while timing precise entries on a lower timeframe. This approach filters out noise and provides better risk-reward ratios, making it ideal for traders seeking consistent profits with controlled risk.

🎯 Key Principles

🛣️

Road Movement Analysis

Use the road's directional curve to predict future price movements

📊

SR Alignment Trading

Never trade against recent Support/Resistance breaks

🔄

Reversal-Only Focus

Trade bounces at key levels, not breakouts

⏱️

Dual TF Confirmation

Higher TF for bias, lower TF for precision entry

⚙️ How This Strategy Works

🔍 Trading Approach

🛣️

Price Action Foundation

Read the road movement patterns

  • Upward curve = Bullish bias
  • Downward curve = Bearish bias
  • Flat road = Range trading
📊

Support/Resistance Respect

Trade with market structure

  • Never counter-trade fresh breaks
  • Wait for level rejection confirmation
  • Align with overall market flow
📈

Trendline Confluence

Additional confirmation layer

  • Draw mentally or on chart
  • Combine with SR for higher probability
  • Use for dynamic support/resistance
⏱️

Timeframe Synergy

Multi-TF analysis system

  • Higher TF shows the destination
  • Lower TF provides the entry ticket
  • Both must align for valid trade

📊 Entry Methods

5min Analysis → 1min Entry

Scalping Best for: Quick intraday trades
  1. 1 Identify SR bounce setup on 5min
  2. 2 Confirm road movement aligns
  3. 3 Switch to 1min for timing
  4. 4 Enter on reversal pattern

30min Analysis → 5min Entry

Day Trading Best for: Larger moves, better R:R
  1. 1 Analyze 30min SR and trendlines
  2. 2 Wait for price approach

  4. 4 Enter on reversal formation

📋 Core Trading Rules

📝 Rule #1: Road Movement Analysis

Look at the movement of the road as instructed in the videos to predict the future price

Critical

📝 Rule #2: Never Trade Against SR

Never take a trade opposite to the SR (If the price just broke a resistance upwards, taking a sell makes no sense)

Critical

📝 Rule #3: Reversals Only Strategy

We only trade reversals in this strategy since reversals are more predictable than breakouts

Critical

📝 Rule #4: Trendline Mastery

Learn to draw trendlines on the chart and then eventually just draw with your mind visually

High

📝 Rule #5: Dual Timeframe System

Choose 2 timeframes: one TF for entry and another TF for analysis (e.g., 1min for entry and 5min for analysis). Look at next 5-15 candles on higher TF

Critical

📝 Rule #6: Higher TF SR Analysis

If price is about to bounce off SR on 5min, wait to take a deal on 1min

High

📝 Rule #7: Trendline Entry System

Looking at trendlines on 5min and entering on 1min is highly profitable

High

📝 Rule #8: Extended TF Analysis

If looking for entry on 5min, look at 30min for trendlines or SR for analysis

High

📝 Rule #9: Take Profit Strategy

TP at CenterLine or TrendLine or SR

Critical

📝 Rule #10: Stop Loss Management

SL 2-3 times less than the profit you're looking to make or just set above/below SR

Critical

🛡️ Risk Management Rules

Essential Trading Discipline
🎯

Small Position When Uncertain

Take a small position if you're not completely sure (to avoid revenge trading)

💚

Accept Losses Gracefully

It's okay if you lose a position (don't let it drag you down)

⏱️

6-8 Candle Limit

Never let the position drag more than 6-8 candles

🚪

5 Candle Exit Rule

If the market is going in the opposite direction and the number of candles is greater than 5, close the position

📈

Trade Up Strategy

Trading Up - Trade up on a better position or reversal

🧘

Emotional Control

If you mess up, leave trading for a few days

⚠️ These rules are non-negotiable. Following them is the difference between long-term success and account destruction.

📈 Real Trading Examples

Perfect Bounce Trade

EURUSD at major support

Price approaches 1.0850 support on 30min with road curving up

30min: Price at major support, road bullish
5min: Bullish pin bar forms at level
Entry: 1.0855 after pin close
Stop: 1.0845 (below support)
TP1: 1.0875 (centerline)
TP2: 1.0890 (trendline)
Result: 20 pips at 1:2 RR

Trendline Confluence

GBPUSD trendline + SR

Price meets ascending trendline at previous resistance turned support

H1: Trendline + horizontal support align
M15: Engulfing candle at touch point
Entry: After engulfing close
Stop: Below both trendline and SR
Targets: Scaled at multiple levels
Result: 45 pips at 1:3 RR

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

Trading Breakouts

This strategy is designed for reversals only

✅ Solution: Wait for clear bounces at levels, never chase breaks

Ignoring Road Direction

Fighting the road leads to low probability trades

✅ Solution: Only take trades aligned with road curve direction

Single Timeframe Trading

Missing the bigger picture context

✅ Solution: Always check both timeframes before entry

Early Entries

Price hasn't confirmed the reversal yet

✅ Solution: Wait for rejection candle to close completely

💡 Advanced Tips

🎯
Level Strength Assessment

SR levels with 3+ touches are strongest. Fresh levels (1-2 touches) need extra confirmation.

If 1.1000 has 5 previous bounces, it's a high-priority level
📊
Session Timing

London open and NY open provide the cleanest reversals at SR levels.

Enter during first 2 hours of major sessions for best results
News Filter

Avoid trading 30min before/after high impact news. SR levels temporarily lose reliability.

🔄
Profit Management

Take 50% at TP1 (centerline), move stop to breakeven, let rest run to TP2/TP3.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trade breakouts with this strategy?
No, this strategy is specifically designed for reversal trading only. Breakouts require different entry criteria and risk management. For breakout trading, see Strategy #3 or #5.
Which timeframe combination is best for beginners?
Start with 30min analysis and 5min entry. This provides a good balance between noise filtering and opportunity frequency. As you gain experience, you can move to faster combinations.
How many trades per day should I expect?
Quality over quantity. Expect 2-4 high-probability setups during active sessions (London/NY). Some days may have none if conditions aren’t ideal.
Should I use pending orders at SR levels?
No, always wait for price confirmation. SR levels are zones, not exact prices. Market orders after confirmation provide better entries than pending orders.
