This is my premarket prep for today’s European session for the Forex pair GBPNZD. 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.
Non-conjecture observations of the market

Mindful Trading
- Sleep got interrupted but took a nap midday. Feeling okay.
Focus Points for trading development
- Weekly Goal
- Correct position sizing
- Trades priority: 1) let market profile guide 2) M30 confirmation (watch out for ‘Billy No Mates’)
- Risk Management
- Only take 2 trades a day but only have 1 active trade on between the assets
- Only trade off M30 candles
- Trading Priority
- FX pair outside value
- FX pair inside > Gold
- 2+R profit during LN consider trading PNYC
- After 4 losing trades reduce TP to 1.5R but after 1R can consider taking profits
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
