Bullish overall on XXXUSD pairs, but NFP is this friday, its not as straighforward how price gets to its final objectives but this is what I find interesting at the moment.
ملاحظة
plotting. will see what develops, would like to catch a trade either today or tomorrow then observe the rest of the week
ملاحظة
took a short before confirmation, but we are in a 2hr FVG. might be a little early. lets see what NYSE decides.
أغلقت الصفقة: تم الوصول لوقف الخسارة
ملاحظة
giving the short another go.
ملاحظة
SL is BE. aiming for a 1:1 projection (standard deviation) of the trading above the 12AM open price, reflected below it for my 1TP. 2nd TP is the monthly open price.
ملاحظة
added a second.
ملاحظة
hoping to get a drop before the day closes.
ملاحظة
still holding first position, had to give it room overnight.
ملاحظة
lol, thanks Powell.
ملاحظة
closed full position here cus I dont want to stomach a retrace.
ملاحظة
I dont think the selling is over, but the market might want to take out all the "price chasers"
I will consider a re-entry if we get a retracement to this level.
ملاحظة
Ignore that random stop loss level, that was used to measure the open price on an 8hr candle and not for actual trade management.
ملاحظة
TP2 hit after being deleted. Still comfortable with the decision cut and run earlier. However this is a win for analysis.
ملاحظة
Considering.
ملاحظة
no trade taken. Note how entry criteria failed to form. This is a better approach than buying and praying. identify what you need to see to justify participation, then participate if the market delivers.
ملاحظة
buying here
ملاحظة
still holding this bag, but looking to get out at small profit.
أغلقت الصفقة: تم الوصول لوقف الخسارة
ملاحظة
long on EU again, weekly outlook idea is developing nicely.
ملاحظة
Added to position
ملاحظة
Just need Powell to be a good boy today.
ملاحظة
Powell took out my add, I added one back in during the drop
ملاحظة
going risk free.
ملاحظة
some of what im looking to see.
ملاحظة
march open price is giving some resistance, hopefully price can push through.
ملاحظة
ملاحظة
adding a third position here on demo for education
ملاحظة
demo trade didnt hold, SL is back down at BE, had to give it room.
ملاحظة
ملاحظة
still holding but she's running out of steam. will see what it looks like by days end
ملاحظة
ill hold intraday if it closes above the open.
ملاحظة
lol what is EU cooking?!
ملاحظة
holding. but I dont love it tbh. we'll see what tomorrow brings.
ملاحظة
dont love the daily doji with FVG as the market likes to take liquidity on both sides of doji.
ملاحظة
going to dial down the hubris factor and shoot for more conservative targets, and respect the daily FVG and its ability to put in a new low once traded into. looking for a 1.5 STD extension of yesterday's asian range for a take profit.
ملاحظة
still holding. this is pretty sh*t price action. would like an exit so I can call it for the week.
ملاحظة
lol what was that?
not complaining tho. feel more comfortable moving my SL, below the 12am open.
ملاحظة
price is struggling to sustain trading above the monthly open but I still believe we get there with some patience.
ملاحظة
Need NYSE to behave.
ملاحظة
developing, moving SL higher into profits.
ملاحظة
im still a believer in this trade but this has to be the worst price action in a while. I will hold till either SL where it currently is, or TP. Or close before NFP even if NFP brings completion I dont want to be in an open trade for that.
ملاحظة
this is what im looking for to start thinking about an exit
ملاحظة
gave SL more room to below balanced range
ملاحظة
nice. could have been a nice entry if i wasnt already involved.
ملاحظة
I should take up knitting...
ملاحظة
probably my last stoploss move
ملاحظة
added a small position with a tight SL.
ملاحظة
add got stopped out and I closed trade manually here. Didn't get the push I was looking for and it looks unlikely at this point. extremely annoying trade would not recommend lol.
ملاحظة
taking a short, will try to clsoe before NFP.
ملاحظة
Lol the market successfully kicked me out of my position and baited me into a bad trade. well played, ill take the reduced profits as a consolation prize.
Till next time.
ملاحظة
definitely regretting selling position but c'est la vie.
ملاحظة
looking for shorts, taking my first attempt here, will try one more time if it doesnt hold.
ملاحظة
initial reaction is encouraging, i would like to add to this if it gives a breaker entry, dont want to double up before im well into profit, unnecessary risk.
ملاحظة
i gave it some more room to the high of the last hourly candle, still in this.
ملاحظة
stopped out, trying again
ملاحظة
was way too impatient for an NFP day today.
ملاحظة
short again.
ملاحظة
JFC finally getting on the right side today.
ملاحظة
note to self, stay off the 1 min chart.
ملاحظة
adding here.
ملاحظة
balanced ranges might be the most reliable small stoploss entry technique that exists. Will look to study and journal this weekend.
ملاحظة
added another and reducing TP level.
ملاحظة
closed positions here before market close. This week was good overall. decision making slipped a bit on thursday into friday. in retrospect should have let thursdays long continue to completion and sat out NFP but hindsight is 20-20.
