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 below last month and week’s body and range
- W1 trading below W1 50MA in UT although W1 UKC in UT started reacting
Sentiment
- Narrative
- D1 supply got taken out with big move down traversing 2.78xADR but closed with a long buying wick closing above D1 QLo
- Price is currently trading within the D1 range and within OLD D1 demand below value within range
- H4 Three Inside Up with long buying wick closing above H4/D1 QLo, no immediate continuation. Instead a Bearish Inside Bar and possible base (developing DBD possible)
- Trend Change: Trend is DOWN 2/3
- Wide IBR 1xASR, possible momentum
- D1 supply got taken out with big move down traversing 2.78xADR but closed with a long buying wick closing above D1 QLo
- LN open
- 0.04xASR Below Value, Within Range
- Moderate Imbalan
- Ambiguous open right at/near VAL, possible responsive activity
- Market Profile
- Values in DT, yesterday’s value very wide
- Clarity (1–5, 5 being best)
- 4
- Hypo 1
- Long
- Value Acceptance, possible continuation sustained auction
- Hypo 2
- Short
- Return to Value, possible Failed Auction, VAL Reversal,
- Risky trading into D1 demand / D1 QLo
- Hypo 3
- Long
- Strenght From Within IBR
- Nearby D1 demand, D1 QLo
- Hypo 4
- Short
- Late-Sustained Auction
- Risky trading within D1 demand and D1 QLo, although there might be a continuation to the W1 narrative, albeit it’s early in the week
Additional notes
- N.A.
Mindful Trading (lack of sleep?)
- Feeling okay
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
