Took this drop on the open and closed out at 200 pips. Was looking for a cleaner entry on the buy. Was looking for a sell to buy off of a 1H imbalance. I was wrong and I was looking at the LTFs a bit too much but still got out in profits.
SPX Loss 9-30-22 Too early Today attempted buying and loss after jumping in too early with a tight SL. Only used about an 1/8th of my normal lot size so the loss is nothing major at all. Was looking for a move off of the 15m+FVG and it moved instead off of the 15m+OB. Wasn't being patient this morning with this setup and jumped in before the orders came...
News release dropped us but no clean entry until you get down to the 1m chart. Missed this drop but I'm okay with that. NAS is driving the charts today so far and not a lot of orders have come in on SPX so far. I'm going to sit on this for now until I see something heavy on the bid or ask before I do anything this morning.
SPX Sell 9/28/22 Didn't get a chance to post it and its already at BE and target 1 Adjusted SL on the open to 3688 Partialed at target 2 Mid-week expectation valid and from the highs we have dropped to the area we though it would push to. The question is still, do we stay inside the candle from yesterday on the daily (candle made this week's high and...
So far we've rejected the weekly high and pushed down into the LTF points of interest. Going into the premarket and NY session I'll be looking for signs of rejection to return to the upside or a continuation of the overall trend. Mostly favoring a neutral to bearish point of view on this but I don't mind reacting on movement to the upside for a buy if the...
Today took a trade based on the 4H setup as the 10am candle opened. Saw that we had a LTF FVG on the 15m (bearish) that failed and became short term bullish and got the entry on the 15m-FVG(H). Order flow confirmed entry to the upside. Buyers hit the bid price at the entry and followed through afterwards. Stop loss in profits and partialed at target 2 so this...
So today I won’t be trading, I have physical therapy, but this is my 4H chart and this is what I’m looking for. I’m looking to see if we are going to trade above the daily into the FVG (Lemme see if you can spot it). If we do, I’ll look to try to take a sell from that area or at least look to get a response in that area. I won’t actively be able to reach out...
This candle creates the -FVG high. Use the low of this candle and extend out. This candle breaks market structure to the downside in the form of an impulse candle, bearish engulfing. The high of the candle following the engulfing candle sets the low of the -FVG and the candle should not trade back above through the candle high that created the lo. You can...
I'm usually looking for my trades between 7am-12pm. Initially was looking for a BUY but the sell setup took over and I needed to remind myself of what it looks like when a +FVG. Bullish POI, where I would normally be looking for a BUY entry and target the last highs made. Price traded through the Bullish POI, a +FVG, then we traded retested the lows of it...
Small Sell on SPX with a gain but nothing big 3708 entry 3716.50 SL 3691.90, 3680, 3673.70 targets Since we're ranging I decided to sell the highs. we did make it to my first target which was basically the weekly opening price and I adjusted my SL into profit. Price pushed back up to take today and yesterday's high out and ran back down to target 1 again. ...
We are trading within a range near the most recent low on the daily after a big move to the downside. Definitely still overall bearish but we are trading into HTF points of interest to the downside, basically buy to sell setup's in the making. Missed the trade yesterday off of the range high but that's okay. Lots of news today so I won't be so quick to pull the...
Missed this entry I wanted to get a confirmation on the LTF, on the 15m or 5m, but never got what I needed to see. Waited for a retracement to an area below lower but the return came outside of my trading window and it also didn't have the confirmation I was looking for.
So far no new entries on anything today and I'll probably leave it that way. We have had a confirmed response to the +OB and the +FVG after opening up the week to the downside. That said, we are still heavy and holding within a range (3704.10-3657.90) for now. 10:00am USD FOMC Member Collins Speaks 4:00pm USD FOMC Member Mester Speaks These two news...
Looking for a retracement at this area for rejection and continuation. No reason for us to move higher than this but if we do the A/S range left a FVG, an -OB, TDO, and the daily open as supply. Going to be waiting for the times & sales to show the entry. The pass few days NAS has shown all the order flow except for the afternoon entry on SPX. Projected...
Looks like NAS just took the 1H-FVG down and this may be the NY session high. T&S is lining up with the 1H-FVG rejection at the moment so we'll see if we get any volume to kick us higher or else this one doesn't meet my entry requirements.
We got a sell off at the end of the day to close out today. Just before the close, we had an order to the down side of over 70k between the daily open, the -FVG(L) price 3790, and a small -OB At the level we saw definite follow through from that point on and near the daily lows at 3748.50
After yesterday's drop that hit my 3770 target, we are holding near the weekly lows in discount. On the LTF the buying started in A/S sessions on through London session to take out some on the short term price imbalances. Last POI was a reaction off of a -FVG that can be seen on the 15m and 1H charts. We will need to see if the fresh +FVG (not noted but its...
