The WoW trade is one of the most important additions to Set and
Forget's set of rules. You must understand the Realignment lesson
before adding it to your trading plan since nesting and realignment
concepts go hand in hand.
WoW is an acronym for the way this type of pattern looks. It's
essentially a W or inverted W (a M shape) formed once a Higher
Timeframe has been hit, price is overextended and/or a trendline has
been solidly broken. I could have named it WoM trade but it didn't
sound as good as WoW
The WoW trade is the brand new imbalance created at the break of
the trendline. It's one of the two methods we use to locate new
imbalances on a price chart. The new imbalance can be a swing
(valley/peak) or a CP, it can happen before the TL is broken or at the TL
confluence.
The WoW trade is a high probability confirmation setup that if done
correctly with the support of the bigger picture trend, can yield great
results. Be careful with this pattern though because when you start
looking for them, you will start seeing WoW trades "everywhere", pay
attention to where the pattern occurs and follow the rules laid out below,
otherwise you will have unnecessary losses.
The WoW trade bar is perhaps the most powerful trade setup that has

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
been introduced to the strategy together with the PCP breakout setup.
If I could pick only one supply and demand pattern to trade with for the
rest of my life, I would probably pick the WoW trade. However, despite
its simple structure, the WoW trade can be very tricky to trade if you
don’t know how to distinguish a good WoW from a bad one.
I see many traders making the same mistakes over and over with WoW
trades; many trade every WoW they see, they give no consideration to
the market context the WoW formed within, they constantly try trading
countertrend WoW trades and many other mistakes.
The fact of the matter, is that there are many subtleties to trading WoW
trades that you must understand if you ever hope to trade them
successfully. So, without further ado, let’s start with the WoW trades.
Any price action setup is going to have a better chance of working out
with the power and momentum of a market trend behind it. There are
numerous reasons why markets trend, but the exact reasons don’t
really matter. All we care about is that a market is or isn't trending and
whether or not we can jump aboard that trend to take advantage of its
strength. To ignore the power and weight behind a trend and think that
you will begin making money trading WoW trades against the trend
before you've learned to trade with the trend, is simply ignorant.
WHAT ESSENTIALLY HAPPENS WHEN A WOW
TRADE OCCURS?
Watch this short video explaining WoW basics:
1. Price is testing a bigger timeframe zone or flip zone
2. Price is overextended on the bigger timeframes. Price starts to
lose steam and act like a spring. The more you pull from both
ends, the bigger the snap back into place will be. Price tends to
be in equilibrium (balance), reversals and take profits occur at
HTF imbalances (the footprint of dinosaurs professional traders
and institutions), it is at this moment where waiting for a WoW
trade is high odds
3. More than 3 CP patterns will most likely have been formed.
This goes hand in hand with price overextension. For instance,
the lower the CP supply pattern is in the curve (its altitude), the
lower its odds to hold price, the higher the odds to be removed
once a HTF demand zone has taken control
4. Big rallies and drops are not sustainable. At some moment,
the market will revert to the mean and traders/institutions will

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
take profit. Where will this normally happen? At bigger timeframe
supply and demand zones or flip zones
5. Price reacts to the bigger timeframe and creates a brand
new imbalance
6. At the origin of these trendline breaks we'll probably see classic
patterns like double and triple tops and bottoms, 123, etc. We
won't be trading these patterns, we will only be trading supply
and demand imbalances. By the time a double top is completed
or the 123 neck line is tested, we should have already been
triggered short way higher after the TL break
7. Price needs to test 1 timeframe HIGHER than the one where
the trendline break has occurred. If we see a descending D1
TL solidly broken but no WK demand area or a clear HTF flip
zone is being tested, the WoW trade won't be a valid setup
HIGH ODDS WoW TRADE SCENARIOS
Find below a list of scenarios where we will be looking for potential high
odds WoW trades.
Scenarios ordered from higher to lower probability. The first 4 scenarios
are the highest odds ones.
1. Momentum and location scenarios. WoW trades play out
really well in momentum and location scenarios, that is, with the
bigger picture in a trend paired with the Sequence and
Realignment scenarios. For instance, MN and WK up, D1 loses
momentum and retests a fresh WK DZ > Descending D1 TL is
broken which provides a momentum and location D1 WoW long.
Watch this short video to learn more about Momentum and
Location WoW trades
2. A HTF zone is being tested,bigger picture is trending. WoW
trades need support from a bigger timeframe. For instance a D1
WoW long will be valid if at least a WK demand zone has gained
control. It will be even better if the WK and/or Monthly charts are
trending (momentum and location)
3. HTF Trendline confluence. There are no HTF zones to lean on
but price starts to react at a MN or WK TL. WoW trades can
occur at TL confluences. Watch this short video to learn more
about this WoW setup
4. Flip zone at HTF zones (D1, WK and MN). WoW trades are
very common at HTF flip zones. Flip zones tend to be ample, so
waiting for a WoW trade to happen within the flip area is a high
probability scenario, even better if we are still clearly trending in
the bigger picture
5. At HTF 20 EMA. High odds if there is bigger picture's trend. HTF
20 EMAs will only be used if the TF we're analysing has got a
clear trend. 20 EMAs work with trending markets, else they are
useless. Watch this video to learn more about this WOW setup
6. PCP WoW setup. This is a new setup based on PCPs. It's the
potential CP created at the break or after the break of a TL
occurring with a clear bigger picture trend. Watch the video on
PCP WoW here
7. HTF zone countertrend. If the HTF is at a very extreme, it is
high odds. Else it will be too aggressive. For instance, MN and
WK are up and we hit a MN SZ. The MN SZ is in the middle of
the charts not at an extreme and imbalance is not that great.
That's not the best scenario to try shorts
Most scenarios are covered in more detailed lower in sublessons.

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
1. HTF has been overshot but no candle close. If a HTF
imbalance is taken out, we should wait for the opposing area to
be taken out, a clear new imbalance with at least 2 ERC
candles, ideally you want to wait for a new D1 trend. I need to
perform further tests on this scenario since there are many times
that it yields great results
2. Lower TF WoW against bigger TF zone in control. For
instance, taking D1 WoW longs against a WK or HTF zone in
control is not a good idea. The bigger TF normally wins over the
lower TF. As a rule of thumb, a big TF will win over a lower TF
(not always but we're talking about odds here, we must play high
odds scenarios not the exceptions)
1. D1 WoW long against valid WK SZ > WK normally
wins over D1
2. D1 WoW long against opposing WK or MN TL and/or
20 EMA confluence (bigger picture trend down)
3. D1 WoW long against valid WK SZ and WK
downtrend. Maybe price is even bouncing from MN DZ
but we must respect the WK downtrend and WK SZ
4. The same applies if you swap the TFs by 1 level and /or
change long for shorts, that is, change D1 for H4 and WK
for D1
3. At all time highs/lows. For better odds we should wait for an
opposing zone to be taken out, not just the TL break
4. If entry TF has got a new opposing trend against the original
WoW and opposing zone is in control. If the WoW entry does
not trigger soon we run the risk of having a new opposing HTF
trend against us and even a HTF opposing zone in control, when
that happens, we need to wait for further confirmation (new
WoW). If we are holding an opposing trade against that WoW,
hold it since the WoW is lower odds
5. An opposing HTF takes control and WoW is nested within
tested opposing zone. For instance, price dropped from WK
SZ, now WK SZ is considered tested. As it drops a D1 WoW
short is created but price keeps on dropping and tests a fresh
WK DZ with a WK uptrend intact. When price rallies into the D1
WoW short, we'll have a D1 WoW short with opposing fresh WK
DZ in control and a nested tested WK SZ. The whole
confirmation process is needed again for a new short
The following attachment is a Coggle mind map created by Nathanael,
it summarizes really well the WoW trades odds.

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
THE BIGGER THE TIMEFRAME IN CONTROL, THE
BIGGER THE TIMEFRAME WE SHOULD USE FOR A
WOW SETUP
WoW setups are high odds if they are taken with the bigger picture
trend and the bigger timeframes of your sequence are aligned. If you
choose to trade WoW setups without that condition, you are going to
see many fakeouts before price takes off of the level you are
expecting.
The bigger the time frame in control we are using for our bigger picture,
the bigger the time frame we should use for WoW set up. With MN as
your bigger picture, D1 WoW will have a greater probability than H4.
As a rule of thumb:
The bigger the TF in control, the bigger the WoW TF you
should use for high odds. Imagine MN DZ in control
For instance:
MN DZ is in control, taking a H4 or lower timeframe WoW long is
not a good idea, opposing D1 and WK supply zones hold quite
well for a first retest so taking lower TF WoW longs with quality
lower TF's SZ in control is not a good idea
Price doesn't usually take off from MN DZ until there is a WK
WoW long, in the meantime, shorts can still happen on D1 and
WK SZs, even with the MN chart in an uptrend
If H4 WoW longs are used as confirmation, we have WK out of
alignment, and D1 downtrend, odds are H4 WoW longs won't
have much success, you will experience lots of fakeouts and
stop losses hit
Guidelines on what would be the minimum TF to wait for a high odds
setup
MN DZ in control and in an UP trend> D1 WoW long
minimum. If there is a valid WK SZ above MN SZ, it usually
holds well on a first retest, price usually takes off the MN DZ until
there is a WK WoW long. We''ll see nested D1 and H4 WoW
longs when that happens. Check out this WK WoW long at MN
DZ on GBP/NZD to see a live example of this scenario
WK DZ in control and bigger picture in an UP trend> D1
WoW long minimum. H4 WoW longs can work but make sure
there is no D1 SZ, flip zone, HTF TL or HTF 20 EMA in control
D1 DZ in control and bigger picture in an UP trend> H4
WoW long minimum. Rationale from previous two scenarios
apply here as well
COUNTERTREND WoW SETUPS
WoW setups can occur under many scenarios, they are best when they
go with the bigger picture's trend or bouncing off of a strong HTF SD
zone, as detailed in the high odds scenarios above.
WoW setups will also happen on countertrend like any other pattern,

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
however we need to know when a valid WoW countertrend can be
taken.
There are a couple of rules:
It must hit and be supported by a HTF opposing zone. A D1
WoW short countertrend will require as minimum a WK SZ
taking control
It must take out and opposing zone with a candle close, if
price is bouncing off of a WK SZ and our entry TF is the D1, we
need D1 DZ taken out with at least a D1 candle close
Ideally what we want to see is tested levels to the left, over
extension and/or compression, read about it on the counter
trend lesson. This gives price a path of least resistance to play
through, unobstructed.
HOW TO DEAL WITH THE FRESHNESS OF A LEVEL
IN A WOW TRADE
It is very difficult to cover all possible scenarios in trading,
there is no perfect recipe for a WoW trade. Try to apply
common sense and logic here as well. Don't try to outsmart
the markets, play your odds and look for the next high
probability trade. Deal with each scenario as if it was the only
one, think in probabilities. If you want to tweak some of the
rules or scenarios, make sure you've thoroughly tested it and
it works.
Follow the guidelines below to deal with the freshness of a HTF level:
1. Fresh HTF zone in control and bigger picture trend? No
need to take out opposing zone
Most of the time, the opposing zone will be removed
anyway, you can always wait for it to be removed and
deal with it as a higher probability entry
If the opposing zone we want to see removed is not well
formed (too wicky, too much trading, compressed, etc),
we can be a little bit more aggressive and "expect" the
zone to be removed
Recommendation: always wait for the opposing zone to
be taken out (you will not have to think when to wait or not
for the opposing zone to be taken out), or at least there
should be a lot of room to the next opposing zone.
2. Nonfresh HTF zone? Wait for a brand new imbalance to be
created, one that takes out an opposing zone. If there is no zone
to be removed and there is a lot of profit margin to the closest
opposing zone, then there will be no need to remove any zone,
it's advisable that bigger timeframes are with you. For instance a
H4 demand zone nested within a D1 demand zone, nested
within a WK demand zone with the WK chart in an uptrend
3. Usedup HTF zone? Do nothing since they are not high odds,
ideally we want to wait for at least a new D1 trend in the direction
we want to trade, not just a CP or WoW trade, but a confirmed
D1 trend connecting two clear valleys/peaks
4. Countertrend WoW? We must wait for the opposing zone to be
taken out. Watch HTF 20 EMA and flip zones, make sure price
action to the left is ideal for countertrend trading (compression,
overextension, tested levels, etc)

The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
HOW TO PLAN A WoW TRADE
When price starts reacting to the bigger timeframe, it usually
creates a brand new imbalance. We must be aware that many times
there is more than one imbalance created:
1. A valley/peak at the extreme, right where the whole imbalance
was originally created at the origin of the move
2. A CP (Continuation Pattern) or valley/peak right at the area
where the Trendline is solidly broken (breakout spot) or just after
the TL break
If both setups are valid. Which one should you take? The CP? The
extreme? Both?
Both entries will be valid, however we have the core strategy rules to
help us make that decision, trendline breaks and freshness of a level.
1. Take the extreme if no valid CP pattern or if another
valley/peak is formed above, take that. We might have no CP
formed, only valleys/peaks, so we will trade what we see
2. Take the CP at or near the retest of the trendline break if the
CP has been validated as per the core strategy rules
3. Once the TL is solidly broken on our entry timeframe (let's say
H4 entry TF trading a WoW trade at a D1 fresh Demand), we will
wait for a bigger pullback right at the extreme valley/peak that
originally created the new imbalance on H4 within the D1 zone.
This is part of the core strategy
AT WHICH TIMEFRAME SHOULD I WAIT FOR THE
IMBALANCE?
If the HTF which is being tested is a D1 level, then we will wait
for minimum H4 WoW trade
If WK is being tested, then we wait for a brand new D1 zone to
be formed. H4 is also ok if there is compression and over
extension to the left
It's all related to the TF you specified as your entry TF on your
trading plan and under which circumstances you might drill down
the WoW trade to a smaller TF
NESTED WoW TRADES
There are scenarios where we'll see several nested WoW trades. A
nested zone is a zone which is located within a bigger timeframe than
the one where we have located the first zone.
The more nested WoW trades we find in any given scenario,
the higher the odds. That does not mean you should tweak or
break the rules of imbalance/departure, quality of the levels,
nonfresh and/or usedup zones however
An example of this could be this scenario:
D1 WoW long nested within a WK WoW long at a Monthly
demand zone
The Monthly demand is fresh and WK is overextended to the
down side
The descending WK TL is solidly broken and provides a WK
demand zone at the extreme or at the retest of the TL break
When a new WK demand is formed, the descending D1 TL will
most likely be solidly broken and might have provided us with an
earlier entry of the sort of a D1 WoW long trade, nested within

7/17
5/28/2016
The WoW trade and how to trade a Trendline break at higher timeframes zones
the WK demand zone where we are originally waiting for price to
drop before we go long
Remember that at a HTF zone like the WK or Monthly, price will
take longer to move, accumulation and distribution stages need
more time at these bigger TFs, and price will probably range for
some time. So if you move your SL to breakeven too soon you
will miss the big move and might get kicked out early.
You need to practice and forward test these scenarios on your
favourite testing software for quite some time before you gain
confidence in the rules for the WoW trade.
1. Trade only D1 WoW at the beginning so you can get the feeling
and confidence. H4 WoW trades happen more often, buy taking
D1 WoW trades is advisable in the beginning
2. Take any pair and start at any year, use the D1, WK and MN
charts
3. Use the D1 as the TF where you will be looking for the TL break
4. Use the WK and MN SD zones as areas where price will most
likely react, it will lose steam and cause the D1 TL to be broken
5. Be aware of the TL breaks on WK and MN as well, they are even
more powerful and those trades will most likely become a longer
term trade
In the beginning, if you decide to take WoW trades, it's advisable
that you to concentrate on WoW trades that go with the HTF trend.
Trade the super clearest setups, don't take countertrend ones or you
will see WoW trades everywhere. That is, a D1 TL Buy WoW trade that
goes with the WK and MN uptrend, the D1 drop would be realigning
with the WK/MN uptrend, those are the ones to start with, and then with
practice the countertrend ones and the other scenarios listed above.
The bigger the timeframe, the bigger the WoW TF entry you should
look at for having high odds setups. For instance, looking for a H4
WoW at a WK Demand area will probably generate some fakeouts,
price normally takes some days to take off from a WK or MN area so it
will generate several entry areas normally. If you wait for a D1
imbalance instead of a H4 or H1 you will probably have more success.
That does not mean that H4 WoW trades won't work but look at the
charts and observe the WoW trades on WK and MN areas of demand,
price hits them and a couple of WK or MN candles bouncing off it is the
normal thing, that means days of accumulation/distribution, providing
several H4 longs. After 13 CPs on the D1 price will most likely take off.
By 3 CPs I don't mean overextension, I mean a CP is created, then
price retests it, it goes back again to the origin of the imbalance, then
rallies again and another CP with higher lows... after the 2nd or the 3rd
price will most likely take off.

Weekly flip zone reached, wait for a D1 WoW long trade to
happen before thinking of going long
Price reacts to the WK flip zone, creating new D1 demand zones
and breaking the descending D1 TL to form WoW long trades
There are several opportunities on the D1 based on the D1
WoW long in this scenario, all described in the attachments
below
WK flip zone is hit again, so we wait for confirmation and
opposing area to be removed. D1 TL broken and new D1
demand zone formed. Price did not pullback to extreme zone,
but it did to the CP at the TL break restet

Several trades happened based on WK WoW trades, D1 nested
WoW trades will be there almost for sure
Price hits MN demand zone (blue line is the MN proximal line).
WK is overextended, hits MN demand and rallies creating a
brand new WK demand
Then it creates a new CP at the TL break, not 2:1 but it works as
well, very strong
TL is broken, WK CP is not fresh so we need to wait for the
extreme. Price hits it on Dec. 2013

MN demand is hit (blue line)
D1 TL is broken, new bullish engulfing (no 2:1) but works). This

These are the highest odds WoW trades, you must understand the
Realignment and Nested zones lesson to fully understand this. This is
trend trading, location and momentum type of trade. Read the lesson
on momentum/location to fully understand these concepts
EURUSD CHART 27th Feb 2014
MN, WK and D1 in an uptrend. Momentum and location type of
trade
New D1 demand created, price retraces into the level, breaks
descending H4 TL, H4 realigns with the D1/WK/MN uptrend
Price rallies from D1 demand (blue lines)
Creates two brand new H4 demand zones
Price does not retrace to the extreme blue valley, but it retraces
to the H4 CP at the D1 proximal line

There are times where the HTF level is not fresh or it's not that well
structured. Instead of setting and forgetting our trades, we'll wait for a
WoW trade. If the HTF is a D1 level, then we'll wait for minimum a H4
zone. If it's a WK or MN level then we'll wait for a brand new D1 zone to
be formed.
EURZAR D1 CHART
7th March 2014. This was an real live trade I took
MN is up, making a bigger retracement
Price reaches a D1/WK demand zone whose basing is not that
good and not fresh
We wait for a H4 WoW TL break
In this case there is a nested D1/H4 WoW long trade
The extreme H4 zone has got a lot of trading, too many candles,
but there is a H4 CP demand right at the retest of the TL break

This small 5 minutes video explains how the WoW long trades work on
bigger timeframes. You may not have these instruments on your broker
but SD and WoW setups work on any instrument, these are just a
couple of examples of how they look and when to go for them without
hesitating.
When these kind of setups occur on bigger timeframes, don't
touch your Stop Loss, let these trades run and trail them in a more
conservative way. The bigger the timeframe, the bigger the profit we
can get from a WoW trade.
Nested WoW trades also happen the same way nested SD zones
are great with a trend at bigger timeframes. It's very common to see
D1 WoW trades within MN and WK SD zones. The bigger the
timeframe the bigger the TF you will be looking for a WoW trade.
Looking for H4 WoW longs at MN demand is not a good idea because
there will be many false signals, it's better to wait for a WoW D1 setup
at WK and MN zones since price tends to accumulate/distribute at
those zones for some candles, a couple of WK/MN candles will
probably give early H4 long trades, which will not run as expected.

I've created a small 30 minutes video on WoW trades for bigger
timeframes. I was analyzing USDHUF exotic pair for the first time, I
wanted to add it to my D1 account. When doing the top down analysis I
realized it would be a great idea to create a small video that went into
more detail on the WoW trades.
This video goes in detail into these subjects:

When to wait for a WoW trade (trendline break)
Patience is key, you can trade lots and lots of instruments on
D1 entries, but patience is key
Which Timeframe minimum we should be waiting for as
confirmation for a WoW trade
The bigger the timeframe the higher the WoW Timeframe we
have to use for confirmation
How to use confirmation on D1 and WK timeframes to trade
at bigger TF zones like the WK and the monthly. At a Monthly
area of demand, it's higher odds to wait for at least a D1 demand
to confirm a WoW trade. Lower timeframes will give false
signals, moreover if the instrument you are trading has lower
liquidity (like the exotic pairs). H4 is fine as confirmation for D1
zones, H1 as well if you are doing intraday. H4 is fine if WK
supply is fresh and original, else a D1 imbalance. Many H4
levels at WK zones will be retested several times until the D1
imbalance is created
The bigger the TF the higher its reliability
If the bigger timeframe level is hit and a trade already played out
(made it nonfresh), it's better to wait for a deeper penetration of
the bigger timeframe before looking for another WoW trade

This is a lower odds scenario. As a rule of thumb, a bigger TF wins over
a lower TF.
Taking a D1 WoW longs against a WK or HTF zone in control is not a
good idea. The bigger TF normally wins over the lower TF. As a rule of
thumb, a big TF will win over a lower TF (not always, but we're talking
about odds here, we must play high odds scenarios not the exceptions)
1. D1 WoW long against valid WK SZ > WK normally wins over
D1
2. D1 WoW long against opposing WK or MN TL and/or 20 EMA
confluence (bigger picture's trend down)
3. D1 WoW long against valid WK SZ and WK downtrend.
Maybe price is even bouncing from MN DZ, but we must respect
the WK downtrend and WK SZ
4. The same applies if you change the TFs by one level and/or
change longs for shorts, that is, change D1 for H4 and WK for
D1
NZDCAD D1 WoW LONG AGAINST WK SZ AND WK
DOWNTREND
October 2014. D1 WoW long failed, WK SZ in control. WK and D1
charts attached
WK downtrend + WK SZ in control + WK 20 EMA confluence = not
good for lower TF longs or D1 WoW longs.
