Entry rules
Use TPO confirmation or invalidation for directional decisions by looking for a
TPO extension with a sustained move (BO from IB)
TPO extension with failed auction (return to IB)
How this direction of TPO extension relates to Value Area open sentiment
09:00-10:30 – Time period for entry based on M30 and higher price action confirmation in conjunction with market profile and trade locations
10:30-12:00 – Entry can be based on lower time frame price action (but stops and further analysis on M30) at higher time frame trade locations with market profile and daily range
No starting at M5 chart
Trade needs to have a target that has the chance of hitting min. X2 R/R
I will post trades including:

Price action entry condition
