This is my premarket prep for today’s European session for GOLD. 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
Larger Timeframe
- MN
- Price trading below body, within range
- W1
- W1 Bear Engulf with long buying wick, slight continuation closing within W1 QLo, W1 demand
Narrative
- D1
- Possible D1 Phase 1 / 3
- Price retraced to D1 Supply Base level but closed below although failing to close within D1 demand and D1 QLo
- H4
- H4 Bull Engulf giving H4-C‑D 1823.719 with continuation closing higher not confidently rejecting H4 QLo
- Trend
- Mixed Trend
- Market Profile
- Value created above the previous bracketing range although still within overall range
- LN Open
- 0.59xASR Below Value, Outside Range
- Moderate to Large Imbalance
- Asia extended and traded higher
- 0.17xASR Tight IBR
Additional Notes
- N.A.
Hypos
- Hypo 1
- Long
- Late-Sustained Auction, risky with congestion in the way
- Hypo 2
- Short
- Return to Value. Possibly at wide LTF Supply below VAL. Reversal, possible Failed Auction, possible continuation
- Hypo 3
- Short
- Auction Fade
- Hypo 4
- Short
- Late-Sustained Auction, very risky
Clarity / Confidence
- 2
Mindful Trading (lack of sleep?)
- Feeling okay
Focus Points for trading development
- Monthly Goals
- Either hit SL or target, reassess after Trading Window Close
- Use SL scaling in case the profit target for the setup doesn’t provide 2R for example for FA or VAA setups
- Risk Management
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
