This is my premarket prep for today’s European session for DAX. This prep builds off of my weekly trade plan I made here:
The purpose of a premarket prep is to find setups within my weekly trade plan bias
Compared against Weekly Trading Plan
- Price trading above last month’s body and made a HH now trading within range
- Last week closed as an inverted hammer currently trading above its body but still within range although price reached for W1-C‑D 15685.89 and is currently trading below W1 supply and started reacting
Sentiment
- LN open
- 0.03xASR Below Value, Within Range, Moderate Imbalance, although ambiguous open could be considered possible responsive activity
- Market Profile
- Value created above the previous
- Narrative
- D1 closed neutral after a bull engulf closing within D1 QHi
- H4 consolidation and break down (after H4 QHi rejection) giving H4-C‑S 16004.13 (within value) with continuation lower after reaction off newly formed H4 supply
- New D1 demand just below as well as H4-C‑D 15940.48
- Trend is UP 3/3
- Clarity (1–5, 5 being best)
- 4
- Hypo 1
- Long
- Value Acceptance, although risky due to newly formed H4 supply within value
- Price would need to confidently take out LTF supply and clear Asia high
- Possible sustained auction continuation
- Hypo 2
- Short
- Return to Value, VAL reversal, possible Failed Auction Short
- Hypo 3
- Long
- Failed Auction
- Hypo 4
- Long
- Auction Fade
Additional notes
- N.A.
ZOIs for Possible Shorts

Mindful Trading (lack of sleep?)
- Didn’t sleep well, will need to be careful. Only trade after C TPO (if any)
Focus Points for trading development
- Monthly Goals
- No momentum trades on Non-Farm Fridays
- Total of 15 trades by the end of the month, can take 2 a day (not in the same product at the same time)
- No early exits, either hit SL or 2R target
- Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
- Process
- Keep trade review comments short
- Risk Management
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
