Actual Development
Price extended higher reaching 1.7R before reversing and just trading sideways. Even into NY there was no directional move. This resulted in a 0.4R profit at the end of the day (time-based cut off).
Good points
- Taking the trade even though a round number was above. Profile and price action were showing a possible sustained auction up.
- Letting the trade go on until the end of day.
Bad Points
- Trading right into D1 supply and round number as well D1 200MA
