These are trades I could have tak­en but for some rea­son I did not. This could be due to me not pay­ing atten­tion or sim­ply not feel­ing like trad­ing. This is usu­al­ly the case when I am not in the right state of mind due to lack of sleep, per­son­al issues, etc.

• Lead­ing Narrative
  • W1 Bull Engulf the pre­vi­ous week clos­ing at W1 Sup­ply Base lev­el indi­cat­ing a poten­tial for continuation
  • Poten­tial­ly devel­op­ing W1 base fol­low­ing the W1 Bull Engulf (which could make sense for the move to hap­pen on Friday)
  • 5‑day brack­et­ing range where the last two days have widen­ing val­ues indi­cat­ing a pos­si­ble move com­ing up
  • New­ly formed H4 Bull Engulf C‑dem with­in Val­ue, price tests it coin­cid­ing with a test of val­ue edge
  • Upward bias in equities
• Rea­son for miss­ing the trade
  • Trad­ing right into D1 QHi (after already hav­ing tak­en a trade that didn’t pan out. Hind­sight is 20/20 they say but I must’ve timed it wrong).
