Bullish overall on XXXUSD pairs, but NFP is this friday, its not as straighforward how price gets to its final objectives but this is what I find interesting at the moment.

plotting. will see what develops, would like to catch a trade either today or tomorrow then observe the rest of the week
Commento

took a short before confirmation, but we are in a 2hr FVG. might be a little early. lets see what NYSE decides.
Trade chiuso: stop raggiunto

Commento

giving the short another go.
Commento
⋅
SL is BE. aiming for a 1:1 projection (standard deviation) of the trading above the 12AM open price, reflected below it for my 1TP. 2nd TP is the monthly open price.
Commento
⋅
added a second.
Commento
⋅
hoping to get a drop before the day closes.
Commento
⋅
still holding first position, had to give it room overnight.
Commento
⋅
lol, thanks Powell.
Commento
⋅
closed full position here cus I dont want to stomach a retrace.
Commento
⋅
I dont think the selling is over, but the market might want to take out all the "price chasers"
I will consider a re-entry if we get a retracement to this level.
Commento
⋅
Ignore that random stop loss level, that was used to measure the open price on an 8hr candle and not for actual trade management.
Commento
⋅
TP2 hit after being deleted. Still comfortable with the decision cut and run earlier. However this is a win for analysis.
Commento
⋅
Considering.
Commento
⋅
no trade taken. Note how entry criteria failed to form. This is a better approach than buying and praying. identify what you need to see to justify participation, then participate if the market delivers.
Commento
⋅
buying here
Commento
⋅
still holding this bag, but looking to get out at small profit.

long on EU again, weekly outlook idea is developing nicely.
Commento

Added to position
Commento

Just need Powell to be a good boy today.
Commento
⋅
Powell took out my add, I added one back in during the drop
Commento
⋅
going risk free.
Commento
⋅
some of what im looking to see.
Commento
⋅
march open price is giving some resistance, hopefully price can push through.
Commento

Commento

adding a third position here on demo for education
Commento
⋅
demo trade didnt hold, SL is back down at BE, had to give it room.
Commento
⋅
Commento
⋅
still holding but she's running out of steam. will see what it looks like by days end
Commento
⋅
ill hold intraday if it closes above the open.
Commento
⋅
lol what is EU cooking?!
Commento
⋅
holding. but I dont love it tbh. we'll see what tomorrow brings.
Commento
⋅
dont love the daily doji with FVG as the market likes to take liquidity on both sides of doji.
Commento
⋅
going to dial down the hubris factor and shoot for more conservative targets, and respect the daily FVG and its ability to put in a new low once traded into. looking for a 1.5 STD extension of yesterday's asian range for a take profit.
Commento
⋅
still holding. this is pretty sh*t price action. would like an exit so I can call it for the week.
Commento
⋅
lol what was that?
not complaining tho. feel more comfortable moving my SL, below the 12am open.
Commento
⋅
price is struggling to sustain trading above the monthly open but I still believe we get there with some patience.
Commento
⋅
Need NYSE to behave.
Commento
⋅
developing, moving SL higher into profits.
Commento
⋅
im still a believer in this trade but this has to be the worst price action in a while. I will hold till either SL where it currently is, or TP. Or close before NFP even if NFP brings completion I dont want to be in an open trade for that.
Commento
⋅
this is what im looking for to start thinking about an exit
Commento
⋅
gave SL more room to below balanced range
Commento
⋅
nice. could have been a nice entry if i wasnt already involved.
Commento
⋅
I should take up knitting...
Commento
⋅
probably my last stoploss move
Commento
⋅
added a small position with a tight SL.
Commento
⋅
add got stopped out and I closed trade manually here. Didn't get the push I was looking for and it looks unlikely at this point. extremely annoying trade would not recommend lol.
Commento
⋅
taking a short, will try to clsoe before NFP.
Commento
⋅
Lol the market successfully kicked me out of my position and baited me into a bad trade. well played, ill take the reduced profits as a consolation prize.
Till next time.
Commento
⋅
definitely regretting selling position but c'est la vie.
Commento
⋅
looking for shorts, taking my first attempt here, will try one more time if it doesnt hold.
Commento
⋅
initial reaction is encouraging, i would like to add to this if it gives a breaker entry, dont want to double up before im well into profit, unnecessary risk.
Commento
⋅
i gave it some more room to the high of the last hourly candle, still in this.
Commento
⋅
stopped out, trying again
Commento
⋅
was way too impatient for an NFP day today.
Commento
⋅
short again.
Commento
⋅
JFC finally getting on the right side today.
Commento
⋅
note to self, stay off the 1 min chart.
Commento
⋅
adding here.
Commento
⋅
balanced ranges might be the most reliable small stoploss entry technique that exists. Will look to study and journal this weekend.
Commento
⋅
added another and reducing TP level.
Commento
⋅
closed positions here before market close. This week was good overall. decision making slipped a bit on thursday into friday. in retrospect should have let thursdays long continue to completion and sat out NFP but hindsight is 20-20.
Let s goo again bro!!!! 45 lots shorts entry at 1.0680. What TP do u suggest? Thanks alot

@badeaw12477338, lol you already know my answer is going to be "I dont hold over the weekend" but I like these levels. maybe its gets to the first one today still.

I expect it to continue crashing short from now

Powell began at 10:15. Assume, it will go down.
