CPI this week on tuesday, this is a preliminary outlook. but I wont be trading till after CPI so this may not be relevant come NY session tuesday. However I am expecting dollar strength and therefore weakness in XXXUSD pairs.
Bình luận:
taking a short here. if it holds will look to exit before CPI tomorrow.
Bình luận:
begun to reduce risk
Bình luận:
im going to go break even early. its the end of the day, if this isnt it i dont want to play around in drawdown.
Bình luận:
giving the OB some room. but will close out if I dont see encouraging price action early.
Bình luận:
stopped out for a small loss yesterday
Bình luận:
short on EU. looking to trade back to the weekly open after CPI pushes price into Weekly FVG.
Bình luận:
added to POS off 5min OB.
Bình luận:
gonna go ahead and move SL to just about BE. if it reverses here it is likely to take my original SL as well, so why take on the excess risk.
Bình luận:
SL at actual break even right now. Dont really see anywhere better to move it to so will just let this play out.
Bình luận:
wont be moving SL just yet as there is a 30min FVG that price could want to revisit. However I am aniticipating a bearish week, and price has sellside objectives to complete so i can easily see it not returning here. if it does I will be looking to add to position.
Bình luận:
i added a small position here. I dont think it taps the 30min FVG.
Bình luận:
in retrospect taking a trade right below an identified risk is bad form. Even if this holds it is not a good method. I need to focus more on high probability than "being right"
Bình luận:
reducing risk on add. it aint much, but its honest work.
Bình luận:
taken out on add as price trades into 30FVG. still looking to add.
Bình luận:
last shot. done with executions for the day.
Bình luận:
encouraging so far. all the stop losses are moved to recent high.
Bình luận:
took an unnecessary loss today after having identified a risk. Need to practice more patience and not executing till I have a rare price offering.
Bình luận:
My methods seem to be a bit of a high risk of wiping out my gains for increased gains. considering developing a more risk averse method in which I would lock in profits without watching them decline. Will think about this a bit more moving forward.
Bình luận:
TP1 hit and a majority closed out. less than 20% of original risk running till TP 2. will look for where into profit to move SL.
Bình luận:
plotting on more shorts.
Đóng lệnh: đạt mục tiêu:
closed out of EU completely and decided no more shorts today as price is so far below the daily open.
Bình luận:
pleased with the decision to close as NY session did not really offer much more downside so far today.
Bình luận:
taking a sell from the breaker formed at the weekly open.
Bình luận:
SL at break even.
Bình luận:
extending TPs more in line with weekly outlook.
Bình luận:
while i am pleased with my ability to be flexible and move with the market, why was I trying to long GU and not taking profit when my overall outlook was bearish on XXUSD? will have to review and journal this weekend.
Bình luận:
will be interesting to see if london takes asia high. not expecting it to, would like to see it play off this OB. SL still at BE.
Bình luận:
TP1 hit, I thought it was going to make me wait till london. glad to secure here.
Bình luận:
TP2 Hit. done for this week. will put out an outlook for next week on my YT channel.
Bình luận:
This week I took 2 major trades in EU. In the first I recognized what was likely to be the weekly high, and sold to the weekly open. the second one was from the weekly open down to where I thought the weekly low was probable.
There is no need to hold a trade for longer (i.e. marrying the trade) if you are confident in your ability to recognize the opportunity when it presents and take advantage. It is better to lock in profits at a good level relative to your initial entry, book the trade, and look for further opportunities.

Bình luận:
demo trading this short.
Bình luận:
going break even
Bình luận:
cheeky add off the breaker, might have been a bit early.
Bình luận:
lol decidedly on the wrong side with that one, thats why we demo. I was hoping for another low but it looks like its already in. Price appears to be returning to the weekly open which is interesting. was looking for a decidedly bearish week. will see what afternoon session looks like.
Bình luận:
last attempt as I still think we close red. price trades to 12hr FVG during NY, taking out both asia and london highs. (This is a demo trade)
Bình luận:
added another position. will look to add one more at further breakdown. this is obviously riskier approach than I would take with live funds.
Bình luận:
3rd added. lets see if this plays.
Bình luận:
traded through the breaker, the OB is the last stand.
Bình luận:
4th position added. having a demo to use as an outlet helps me be more risk averse and measured with a live account. I can "push my edge" without incurring actual financial losses or gains, and see what techniques might be worth it to implement in a live account.
...or what I definitely shouldn't do.

Bình luận:
taken out for a loss on 2 and break even on the others.
Let the algo show you its hand.
