April Futures Recap
Finished the month up 12.4% on my 50k Apex account. 15 green days and 4 red days. For my first full month trading the market, I will take it.
On April 14th I had a tilt day and hit MDL. I am honestly happy it happened because it taught me a great lesson. This trading is more discretionary than my previous trading, meaning you have to be very in tune with your emotions and mental state. Discretion can be a edge, but like anything it needs to be trained and built.
Slow compounding is definitely the way in this market, to do that you need to ensure you keep the red days small.
I am finding a repeatable edge combining volume with wyckoff.
Going to start sharing more of how I trade this market and doing some trade reviews.
Excited for May ⚡️
$ES Monday morning M2A on NY open.
Price accumulated on the overnight VWAP and respected the NY VAL.
Overnight VWAP is OP
Great way to start the week ⚡️
Beautiful Short this AM on $ES
NY opened with a heavy sell off leaving behind a LVN Void. Price came back into it and created a LTF distribution into the LVN and VAH. NY VWAP failed to reclaim which added extra confluence.
Used @MrZincx's @edgeful IB playbook to have the confidence to target the IB low.
Going to touch grass for rest of day ⚡️
Been Quiet lately. Collecting Data.
Going to try and be more active this month.
Took this Internal M2A this morning on $MES. SMT with $NQ, Respecting previous weeks VAH.

I’m starting a series breaking down how I’ve been executing Wyckoff models in the futures markets through the lens of Auction Market Theory.
I place heavy importance on FRVP, VWAP, and reading the Initial Balance. Together, these tools help build the context needed to scalp Wyckoff models when they present themselves.
In this video, I review a Gold trade from Monday’s session and walk through the logic behind the execution step by step.
