Forex Chart Markups: Weekly Stop Hunt & Reversal Archive

Forex chart markups from Forexia: every week we scan the seven majors and gold on real candles and mark up each setup that follows the method. Stop hunts, M and W formations, liquidity sweeps and the midweek reversal, with the retail stop losses drawn on the chart and the pips the move made in the header. This page is the archive: 26 weeks so far, 209 textbook setups, 123 partials and 106 weekly cycle charts.

How these forex chart markups are made

Each week gets the same four passes. Textbook daily setups, where the reversal cleared the whole Asian range. Partial setups, where the structure printed but the follow-through did not. Weekly cycle charts for the markets that turned midweek. And a confluence chart per pair, scoring each daily setup on eight confirmations.

Nothing is typed in by hand. Every level comes from the candles, every news marker comes from the economic calendar, and the setups that did not work are published next to the ones that did. If the charts are new to you, start with How to Read a Forex Chart Markup, which explains reverse price action and every mark we use.

What the confluence score has been worth

How often the high or low behind a setup was never traded back through for the rest of its week, leaving out Friday setups:

• 6 to 8 confirmations: 11 of 18
• 5 confirmations: 21 of 31
• 3 or 4 confirmations: 68 of 135
• 2 or fewer: 35 of 95

Read this with care. Being the high or low of the week is one of the eight confirmations, and it is only known in hindsight. These forex chart markups are a description of 26 weeks, not a tested edge. The method's own advice applies: backtest it before you believe it.

Frequently asked questions

What is a forex chart markup?

A chart markup is a real price chart with the structure drawn on it after the fact: the Asian range, where retail stop losses were resting, the stop hunt that took them, and the reversal that followed. It is a study tool, not a signal.

Which markets are covered?

EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, AUDUSD, USDCAD, NZDUSD and gold (XAUUSD). Gold is counted at 1 pip = $1.

How is the confluence score worked out?

Each daily setup gets one point for each of eight confirmations: a clear Asian range, a second-leg stop hunt, the hunt at a session open, taking the previous day's high or low, high-impact news in sync, forming on Tuesday or Wednesday, being the high or low of the week, and price being induced into it from the week's open.
