• Lead­ing Narrative
  • Price trad­ing at D1 QHi and formed a pos­si­ble rever­sal (coin­cid­ing with MN/W1 sup­ply), although fol­lowed by a Bull Engulf that is high in the dis­tri­b­u­tion curve
  • Price extend­ed below dur­ing C TPO com­ing from M30 QHi
  • Even though open with­in val­ue sen­ti­ment, price trad­ed at the top of the range with a mixed trend

Actu­al Development

• C TPO closed below IB
• D TPO closed as a Grave­stone Doji (pos­si­ble continuation)
• E TPO formed a weak DBD not mak­ing a LL
• F TPO burst low­er hit­ting 1.2R tar­get before revers­ing higher

Good points

• Tak­ing the trade

Bad Points

• Not in line with the dom­i­nant direc­tion of the day’s narrative
• Apart from D1 demand (that is high in dis­tri­b­u­tion curve) there was a H4 demand I was trad­ing right into
• There was an open with­in val­ue sen­ti­ment and more infor­ma­tion was need­ed as C TPO had not yet closed below IB so I jumped the gun on the trade. Lit­tle FOMO there although I did wait for M15 to close below and wait­ed for a re-test of IB Low.
