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.
Nota
plotting. will see what develops, would like to catch a trade either today or tomorrow then observe the rest of the week
Nota
took a short before confirmation, but we are in a 2hr FVG. might be a little early. lets see what NYSE decides.
Operación cerrada: precio stop alcanzado
Nota
giving the short another go.
Nota
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.
Nota
added a second.
Nota
hoping to get a drop before the day closes.
Nota
still holding first position, had to give it room overnight.
Nota
lol, thanks Powell.
Nota
closed full position here cus I dont want to stomach a retrace.
Nota
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.
Nota
Ignore that random stop loss level, that was used to measure the open price on an 8hr candle and not for actual trade management.
Nota
TP2 hit after being deleted. Still comfortable with the decision cut and run earlier. However this is a win for analysis.
Nota
Considering.
Nota
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.
Nota
buying here
Nota
still holding this bag, but looking to get out at small profit.
Operación cerrada: precio stop alcanzado
Nota
long on EU again, weekly outlook idea is developing nicely.
Nota
Added to position
Nota
Just need Powell to be a good boy today.
Nota
Powell took out my add, I added one back in during the drop
Nota
going risk free.
Nota
some of what im looking to see.
Nota
march open price is giving some resistance, hopefully price can push through.
Nota
Nota
adding a third position here on demo for education
Nota
demo trade didnt hold, SL is back down at BE, had to give it room.
Nota
Nota
still holding but she's running out of steam. will see what it looks like by days end
Nota
ill hold intraday if it closes above the open.
Nota
lol what is EU cooking?!
Nota
holding. but I dont love it tbh. we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Nota
dont love the daily doji with FVG as the market likes to take liquidity on both sides of doji.
Nota
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.
Nota
still holding. this is pretty sh*t price action. would like an exit so I can call it for the week.
Nota
lol what was that?
not complaining tho. feel more comfortable moving my SL, below the 12am open.
Nota
price is struggling to sustain trading above the monthly open but I still believe we get there with some patience.
Nota
Need NYSE to behave.
Nota
developing, moving SL higher into profits.
Nota
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.
Nota
this is what im looking for to start thinking about an exit
Nota
gave SL more room to below balanced range
Nota
nice. could have been a nice entry if i wasnt already involved.
Nota
I should take up knitting...
Nota
probably my last stoploss move
Nota
added a small position with a tight SL.
Nota
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.
Nota
taking a short, will try to clsoe before NFP.
Nota
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.
Nota
definitely regretting selling position but c'est la vie.
Nota
looking for shorts, taking my first attempt here, will try one more time if it doesnt hold.
Nota
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.
Nota
i gave it some more room to the high of the last hourly candle, still in this.
Nota
stopped out, trying again
Nota
was way too impatient for an NFP day today.
Nota
short again.
Nota
JFC finally getting on the right side today.
Nota
note to self, stay off the 1 min chart.
Nota
adding here.
Nota
balanced ranges might be the most reliable small stoploss entry technique that exists. Will look to study and journal this weekend.
Nota
added another and reducing TP level.
Nota
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.
