How do you use price action in your own strategy?

I've been using price action as a key part of my forex trading strategy, focusing on candlestick patterns, support/resistance levels, and market structure. It’s helped me make more confident trading decisions without relying too much on indicators.
 
Price action offers so much clarity when you understand structure and context. Do you also incorporate liquidity zones or concepts like FVGs and internal/external range breaks? They've really added precision to my entries, especially on lower timeframes

Yeah, I keep an eye on liquidity zones, especially recent highs/lows—they’ve saved me a few times. FVGs can be hit or miss for me, but when they line up with HTF structure, they’re golden. And those internal/external breaks are game-changer for catching momentum. Any pairs you’ve noticed they work best on?
 
The longer you watch your chosen time frames, Price action / Pattern Recognition in my opinion gives you a basis / foundations of the start of a clear trading strategy.
With reoccurring patterns happening on the charts again and again, using lagging indicators are no use at all.

I’ve seen it work best on EUR/USD and GBP/JPY — both tend to respect structure pretty cleanly, especially around key liquidity zones. On lower timeframes, those internal/external breaks give really solid entries when they align with HTF bias. You trade those pairs too, or lean more toward something else?

I’ve noticed they work really well on GBP pairs. price tends to respect those zones with some strong moves. EU’s good too, but it’s a bit slower. Do you mostly stick to the majors or do you dive into crosses as well?

Totally agree, price action gives that solid foundation. Patterns really tell the story. What’s your go-to setup?
 
Yeah, mostly stick to majors for now — cleaner moves and tighter spreads make them easier to manage. But I’ve been curious about a few crosses lately, especially GBP/AUD and EUR/NZD. Might start testing those zones out there too. Have you had much luck outside the majors?

Oh nice. Pure price action is great. less noise, more clarity. What's your favorite setup?
