This is my pre­mar­ket prep for today’s Euro­pean ses­sion for the Forex pair GBPNZD. This prep builds off of my week­ly trade plan I made here:

GBPNZD 2021 Week 28 Trad­ing Plan

The pur­pose of a pre­mar­ket prep is to find setups with­in my week­ly trade plan bias

Com­pared against Week­ly Trad­ing Plan

• Price retraced last week’s body and is trad­ing at W1-C‑D 1.96800

Non-con­jec­ture obser­va­tions of the market

• Price action
  • D1 retraced the pre­vi­ous large day but then closed as an Inside Bar with long sell­ing wick clos­ing below D1 QHi.
  • H4 Gap Down with fill but closed low­er and formed a Base at MN C‑Sup
• Trend: H4 Down, D1 Up, W1 Up
  • Pre­vail­ing trend: Trend is UP 2/3

Sen­ti­ment

• LN open
