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.

plotting. will see what develops, would like to catch a trade either today or tomorrow then observe the rest of the week
บันทึกช่วยจำ
took a short before confirmation, but we are in a 2hr FVG. might be a little early. lets see what NYSE decides.

บันทึกช่วยจำ
giving the short another go.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
added a second.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
hoping to get a drop before the day closes.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
still holding first position, had to give it room overnight.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
lol, thanks Powell.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
closed full position here cus I dont want to stomach a retrace.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Ignore that random stop loss level, that was used to measure the open price on an 8hr candle and not for actual trade management.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
TP2 hit after being deleted. Still comfortable with the decision cut and run earlier. However this is a win for analysis.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Considering.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
buying here
บันทึกช่วยจำ
still holding this bag, but looking to get out at small profit.

long on EU again, weekly outlook idea is developing nicely.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Added to position
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Just need Powell to be a good boy today.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Powell took out my add, I added one back in during the drop
บันทึกช่วยจำ
going risk free.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
some of what im looking to see.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
march open price is giving some resistance, hopefully price can push through.

บันทึกช่วยจำ
adding a third position here on demo for education
บันทึกช่วยจำ
demo trade didnt hold, SL is back down at BE, had to give it room.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
บันทึกช่วยจำ
still holding but she's running out of steam. will see what it looks like by days end
บันทึกช่วยจำ
ill hold intraday if it closes above the open.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
lol what is EU cooking?!
บันทึกช่วยจำ
holding. but I dont love it tbh. we'll see what tomorrow brings.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
dont love the daily doji with FVG as the market likes to take liquidity on both sides of doji.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
still holding. this is pretty sh*t price action. would like an exit so I can call it for the week.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
lol what was that?
not complaining tho. feel more comfortable moving my SL, below the 12am open.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
price is struggling to sustain trading above the monthly open but I still believe we get there with some patience.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
Need NYSE to behave.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
developing, moving SL higher into profits.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
this is what im looking for to start thinking about an exit
บันทึกช่วยจำ
gave SL more room to below balanced range
บันทึกช่วยจำ
nice. could have been a nice entry if i wasnt already involved.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
I should take up knitting...
บันทึกช่วยจำ
probably my last stoploss move
บันทึกช่วยจำ
added a small position with a tight SL.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
taking a short, will try to clsoe before NFP.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
definitely regretting selling position but c'est la vie.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
looking for shorts, taking my first attempt here, will try one more time if it doesnt hold.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
i gave it some more room to the high of the last hourly candle, still in this.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
stopped out, trying again
บันทึกช่วยจำ
was way too impatient for an NFP day today.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
short again.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
JFC finally getting on the right side today.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
note to self, stay off the 1 min chart.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
adding here.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
balanced ranges might be the most reliable small stoploss entry technique that exists. Will look to study and journal this weekend.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
added another and reducing TP level.
บันทึกช่วยจำ
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.
