News Today:

Notes about today:

• 10am and 2pm didn’t deliver proper entries or opportunities. This short right here, I entered with only one micro risking $50, because I was missing SMT as a confluence. Still followed my rules with, price tapping into 1h OB, and showing 5m CISD structure. Exited early I didn’t like this trade idea, especially with being bullish on HTF.
• This whole week has been a mental test, and I think I’m passing it. I’m able to sit on my hands much better than before. There’s a lot of improvement in my mindset and how I approach each trading day. I have my system. And I have to wait for it to show up, if it doesn’t, then there’s no trade. Simple as that.

1m Time Frame:

Another Idea for 2pm:

• I was looking for shorts here, but I wanted to see if we could sweep liquidity and form a nice SMT, but NQ never swept this BLL.
• Didn’t enter on this, but if you notice on 1m time frame, right before 2pm we form a nice structure, sweeping BLL, forming inversion and showing 1m cisd. And all that happens inside of a clear 15m FVG. So, what does that tell us? I strictly limit myself to only trading in the proper time frame. Which will be beginning of 10am, and beginning of 2pm. Can we possibly find entry before heading into the 4h candle? Because this setup looked super clean. and we nicely respected 15m fvg. Although we never delivered a good SMT.
