US100 Trade Log - NFP + Bad Apple Earnings

Aggiornato
Trade Log (31/10/2024) - US100 Short Setup

1. Context: The setup is influenced by multiple bearish factors:
- Recent Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) data indicating weaker-than-expected job growth.
- Bad earnings report from Apple, adding to negative market sentiment.
- Formation of a bearish wedge pattern on the charts.
- 1H timeframe shows a short signal within a Fair Value Gap (FVG) acting as a supply zone.

2. Entry strategy:
- Target: 1:2 RRR.
- Risk: 1% of account.
- Entry confirmation: Enter short when price retraces into the 1H FVG and shows bearish signals, such as a reversal candle or rejection wick.

3. Stop-loss and take-profit:
- Place stop-loss above the upper boundary of the 1H FVG to protect against false breakouts.
- Set take-profit at twice the stop-loss distance for a 1:2 RRR.

4. Additional considerations:
- Monitor market reactions closely to any follow-up reports or news related to major tech stocks.
- Be prepared for increased volatility around NFP data and Apple’s impact on broader tech sentiment.
Nota
Remember NFP in 15min, I'd short the wick if it pumps prematurely.
