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

- Incorporate profile day type
- Trading Rules
- If Open outside of value consider the placement in relation to ADR
- Risk Management
- 3 trades 1% risk, 3rd trade only if first 2 worked out
- OK to take 1R when in DD
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
