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.
تعليق:
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
تعليق:
giving the short another go.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
added a second.
تعليق:
hoping to get a drop before the day closes.
تعليق:
still holding first position, had to give it room overnight.
تعليق:
lol, thanks Powell.
تعليق:
closed full position here cus I dont want to stomach a retrace.
تعليق:
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.

تعليق:
Ignore that random stop loss level, that was used to measure the open price on an 8hr candle and not for actual trade management.
تعليق:
TP2 hit after being deleted. Still comfortable with the decision cut and run earlier. However this is a win for analysis.
تعليق:
Considering.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
buying here
تعليق:
still holding this bag, but looking to get out at small profit.

تعليق:
long on EU again, weekly outlook idea is developing nicely.
تعليق:
Added to position
تعليق:
Just need Powell to be a good boy today.
تعليق:
Powell took out my add, I added one back in during the drop
تعليق:
going risk free.
تعليق:
some of what im looking to see.

تعليق:
march open price is giving some resistance, hopefully price can push through.
تعليق:
تعليق:
adding a third position here on demo for education
تعليق:
demo trade didnt hold, SL is back down at BE, had to give it room.
تعليق:
تعليق:
still holding but she's running out of steam. will see what it looks like by days end
تعليق:
ill hold intraday if it closes above the open.
تعليق:
lol what is EU cooking?!
تعليق:
holding. but I dont love it tbh. we'll see what tomorrow brings.
تعليق:
dont love the daily doji with FVG as the market likes to take liquidity on both sides of doji.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
still holding. this is pretty sh*t price action. would like an exit so I can call it for the week.
تعليق:
lol what was that?
not complaining tho. feel more comfortable moving my SL, below the 12am open.

تعليق:
price is struggling to sustain trading above the monthly open but I still believe we get there with some patience.
تعليق:
Need NYSE to behave.
تعليق:
developing, moving SL higher into profits.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
this is what im looking for to start thinking about an exit
تعليق:
gave SL more room to below balanced range
تعليق:
nice. could have been a nice entry if i wasnt already involved.
تعليق:
I should take up knitting...
تعليق:
probably my last stoploss move
تعليق:
added a small position with a tight SL.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
taking a short, will try to clsoe before NFP.
تعليق:
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.
Till next time.
تعليق:
definitely regretting selling position but c'est la vie.
تعليق:
looking for shorts, taking my first attempt here, will try one more time if it doesnt hold.
تعليق:
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.
تعليق:
i gave it some more room to the high of the last hourly candle, still in this.
تعليق:
stopped out, trying again
تعليق:
was way too impatient for an NFP day today.
تعليق:
short again.
تعليق:
JFC finally getting on the right side today.
تعليق:
note to self, stay off the 1 min chart.
تعليق:
adding here.
تعليق:
balanced ranges might be the most reliable small stoploss entry technique that exists. Will look to study and journal this weekend.
تعليق:
added another and reducing TP level.
تعليق:
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.
back at it again next week.
back at it again next week.
Let the algo show you its hand.
plotting. will see what develops, would like to catch a trade either today or tomorrow then observe the rest of the week
