    • 3
  • Hypo 1 – Sustained Auction Down

    • Preferred: IB extension down, sustained auction (taper profit target due to a wide value)
    • Con: D1 Bullish narrative
  • Hypo 2 – Value Rejection Up / Sustained Auction Up
    • Narrative: D1/W1 Bullish narrative
    • Preferred: IB extension UP, sustained auction taking out D1 demand
    • Con: Open within value, ADR nearly exhausted
  • Hypo 3 – Value Rejection Failure / Failed Auction
    • Preferred: price extends above and fails to find business. ADR exhaustion right above.
  • Hypo 4 – Auction Fade
    • Narrative: Hypo 2 plays out, D1 Supply Pop gives an LTF reaction. Exhausts ADR
    • Preferred: TPO structure and PA reversal, target to IB edge
    • Con: D1 Bullish narrative
  • Hypo 5 – Auction Fade
    • Variation to Hypo 1, possible reversal at H4 demand at VAL

Mindful Trading (lack of sleep?)

  • Feeling okay

Focus Points for trading development

  • Monthly Goals
    • No momentum trades on Non-Farm Fridays
    • Total of 13 trades by the end of the month
  • Weekly Goal
    • Min. 3 times working out at home + mandatory cardio
    • Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
  • Risk Management
    • Without forcing a trade: aim to take 1 trade a day, if possible 2. 
    • Capital Preservation during drawdown allows for 1R profit-taking
    • 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
