Trader On A Mission | #NQ #ES Futures

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Another great setup as a continuation move unfolds. Delivery out of the 5 minute FVG occurred after short-term sell stops were taken out, with an entry from the 1m #FVG at 10:53 during the AM session Macro. The trade targeted the previous day’s high, locking in a 2.4RR.

Today, right after the 9:30 AM open, we saw a clear delivery and displacement out of the 15m #FVG. The first 1 minute FVG, presented at 9:37 AM, was taken as a long entry, targeting the London high and the next Buyside Liquidity, locking in solid 3RR. #NQ #Trading

Very clear directional bias and price action over the past couple of days.

Tricky Monday AM session, especially when identifying daily bias on the 1h chart. Missed the first entry after the initial market structure shift, but caught the second short off the 11:05 1m #FVG. Targeted NWOG and Asia low sell-side liquidity. Locked in a solid 3R. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

A 1.6RR long was taken after the 9:30 open, targeting the London high and Buyside liquidity. The 9:19 breaker block served as an entry, following a clean market structure shift on the 1m and a delivery out of the 5m order block, confirming a bullish bias. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Both trades taken today unfortunately ended up stopping out at breakeven. The bias was correct and the entries were on point, but overall market conditions were tricky. Plus, the final target on #NQ wasn’t even reached, even though both #ES and #YM took out yesterday’s high.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

No trades taken today. The ranges and risks were simply too big for my account allocation. It was a great opportunity to observe and live test. Saw extremely aggressive buyside delivery after the 15m/1h BISI #FVG was tapped, with sell stops taken out right after the 9:30 open. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

No trades taken today due to high-risk, high-volatility conditions following #Unemployment and #NFP data releases. Clean sell-side order flow observed. 1h/5m SIBI delivery, with 1m 9:32 #FVG and 10:25 #OB entries targeting recent London low. Locked in 2.1R and 3.5R respectively.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Lesson of the day: Don’t fear the sessions following high-volatility days or data releases. If the market presents a setup, take it and embrace the outcome. Reduce risk if needed, but don’t close at break-even too soon - let it run to clear obvious liquidity. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Common mistake that I make is putting BE too soon, without letting the trade run to its target. Again, beautiful delivery and order flow on a 5/15m out of hourly SIBI, 1m 10:03 #FVG as an entry targeting Asia low with a 2.2RR. Zero profits instead of a W, still better than an L.

An example of external-to-internal delivery is all you need for an entry, along with a correct bias, of course. Sell stops taken, delivery out of the 9:30 15m BISI, with a 10:12 1m #FVG long entry targeting BSLQ and delivering a solid 2.1RR. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Missed the initial entry on this bad boy - plus, I wasn’t sure if it would hit the BSLQ or not. Still, a clean example from the 2022 @ICT Mentorship. A smooth sweep of sell stops followed by a market structure shift with a #FVG displacement, promising at least 3RR.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Wonderful delivery out of the 6:00 15m SIBI, supporting the idea of a bearish bias. The 10:06 1m #FVG was taken as a short, after the news data release, targeting Asia low and locking in a solid 2RR. External to internal liquidity with a correct directional bias is all you need.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

@zaruww A bit of both.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Today, we saw a great example of market open manipulation. After closing above the 9:32 #iFVG and making an obvious structure shift, the 9:54 1M #FVG was taken as a long entry, targeting Asia High and promising a solid 2.1RR. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Couldn't finish the week on a positive note. The 10:08 1M #FVG was taken as a short, targeting the 9:25 low and PWL with a potential 3RR. Unfortunately, the bias was proven wrong right away, and the AM session ended up consolidating with a corrective uptrend. #NQ #Trading

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Beautiful bullish order flow on #NQ today. Wasn’t sure about longing, but the clear delivery after 9:30 made it quite obvious. The 10:16 1M #FVG delivery out of 5m 10:00 was taken as an entry, targeting London High liquidity with a solid 2.3RR. On to the next one.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Further bullish structure seemed pretty clear, and #NQ provided a couple of long opportunities from the 11:06 and 11:21 1M #FVGs. Congrats to those who took them. Unfortunately, my bias was proven wrong. At this point, just waiting for #FOMC and extra bias hints.

[Victor @ThePipVictor]

Looking back, shouldn’t have traded today. #FOMC day, HTF consolidation, and overall tricky market conditions. Still, a 2RR short was taken after the Asia High LQ was purged. The direction was proven wrong after we failed to take 19,705.75 and aggressively reversed on #NQ.
