No trade for me today, choppy price action, was neutral heading into the day since we had many unfilled gaps below and above us, was waiting for possible delivery from 4h for a short but did not like the reaction, and es tapped a 15 min fvg already so we had a bullish smt below
I am glad that the market showed me again that patience is key to this game, which I did not show today at all, its on me now to correct this mistake when the same situation happens again๐ซก
This was the first trade today, which was absolutely a terrible entry longing in a falling knife structure, rookie mistake, tried to target 15 min um after we respected a 0.5 of the 1h fvg, completely ignored all the red flags, like inversing a 4h
Long in a falling knife structure is something I need to learn to avoid, after a big berish move like we had today it was not probable that we are going to make an inversion off a random key level like 0.5 of the 1h fvg, paitence was not my virtue today
Nq tapped into a daily fvg we swept the low inside a 4h fvg after which we got a beautiful 2 min ifvg and 1 min ifvg 2 min cisd 1 min cisd and 3 min cisd, es was also respecting a daily bpr, my breakeven point was a 15 min um fvg, took profits when price started to accumulate
Broke my rules today I took the second trade after an L which directly broke my rule of 1 trade per day. But the setup was so good I had to take it. Pnl on the day +332
No trades for me today i was HTF bullish but did not see my model with high probability at open after which we just started ripping up and no retracement was offered. I was also leaning berish toward 10:00 am open but no setup was presented.Fade day for me. We go again tomorrow๐ช
