- Leading Narrative
- D1 QHi rejection, possible D1 Phase 3,
- Prev. Day Exceeded ADR by 1.08 closing as Bear Engulf, possible momentum
- Open sentiment
- Extension and close below during C TPO
Actual Development
- E formed a DBD, F a Bullish Inside Bar, all closing below IB in effect sustaining the auction
- G finally made a LL, then H and I closed lower
Good points
- Taking the trade even though a wide IBR usually infers a low possibility of a sustained auction. But due to the possibility of momentum coming from a D1 Bear Engulf and prev. Day having exceeded ADR I went with a bearish narrative.
Bad Points
- I could have let my target take over as it would have been hit. G TPO had made a LL so there was an additional sign of a continued sustained auction. It being around 2nd DTTZ I thought there could be a reversal coming and grasshoppered out of the trade for a measly 0.4R.
