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
Weekly Focus Points
- Don’t take trades where SL placement is suboptimal. Instead, reassess for a better entry if possible. Unless there is a momentum play.
Compared against Weekly Trading Plan
- Returned to W1 sup base level and trading higher
Non-conjecture observations of the market
- Price action
- Follow-through on D1 move higher reacting to overhead supply leaving behind a longer selling wick trading slightly within supply
- H4 Three Outside Down at H4-C‑S 1.90486 (coinciding with H4 200MA) with no follow-through. Instead new demand created through H4 Inside Up giving H4-C‑D 1.89547
- H4 closed as Bear Engulf at D1 C‑sup premarket giving new H4-C‑S 1.89920
- Market Profile
- Price returned to previous overall bracket

- Sentiment
- Balancing Market. Although due to newly formed H4 C‑sup we could see a rejection down.
- LN open
- Clarity (1–5, 5 being best)
- 4
- Hypo 1 — Balancing Market / Value Rejection Failure
- Play off nearby ADR 0.5, LTF SD ZOIs

Mindful Trading

- Continue tracking my DRC tracking sheet
- Focus on my own progress and less on others

- Have ‘quieter’ weekends
- Weekly Goal

- Capital Preservation during drawdown allows for 1R profit-taking
- 2 consecutive days of lack of sleep = NO TRADING
