These are trades I could have tak­en but for some rea­son I did not. This could be due to me not pay­ing atten­tion or sim­ply not feel­ing like trad­ing. This is usu­al­ly the case when I am not in the right state of mind due to lack of sleep, per­son­al issues, etc.

Rea­son for miss­ing the trade (explain the narrative)

There was a pos­si­ble D1 DBD impli­ca­tion through con­sol­i­da­tion below D1 QHi after it got reject­ed. Larg­er time­frame is bear­ish still as well. Price opened on mod­er­ate imbal­ance, 0.20xASR Above Val­ue, Out­side Range. 

I didn’t take the trade as it was trad­ing right into demand and with a stan­dard SL place­ment I could not get a good prof­it tar­get as the oppos­ing demand would have yield­ed only 1R. 

What hypo was it?

Hypo 1

Val­ue Acceptance

Hypo 2

Sus­tained Auc­tion Short, vari­a­tion to Hypo 1 (trad­ing right into demand)
