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

Compared against Weekly Trading Plan

Non-conjecture observations of the market

- D1 reacted off D1-C‑S 1.92964 and D1 200MA and closed down at W1 QLo (not closing within) with
- Price took out H4 supply and created a new one through Bear Engulf giving H4-C‑S 1.91955 closing below D1 QHi with no follow-through. Instead some consolidation
- Premarket: H4 broke up from consolidation (at W1 QLo) closing above newly formed H4-C‑S 1.91955 at D1 QHi
- Trend: H4 Up, D1 Down, W1 Down

Sentiment
- Locations
- H4-C‑S 1.91955 at VAL within range

- Sentiment
- LN open

- Open distance to value
- N.A.
- Narrative
- DUe to the open inside we could see a balancing market. Although the close inside was right at the open and H4 closed making a big bullish move. Thus we could see a continuation to the move although a bit tricky due to having to reach VAH and reject up closing above D1 C‑sup taking out LTF supply.
- LN open
- Clarity (1–5, 5 being best)
- 4
- Hypo 1 — Balancing Market
- Narrative: Balancing market plus D1 c‑sup as well as LTF supply at VAH
- Preferred: Play off nearby ADR and LTF levels
- Con: big move premarket
- Hypo 2 — Value Rejection Down
- Narrative: Due to the large supply overhead plus D1 c‑sup we could see a rejection down
- Preferred: confident close below VAL with IB extension down, sustained auction.
- Con: massive move premarket
- Hypo 3 — Value Rejection Up
- Narrative: Massive move premarket retracing more than yesterday’s D1 body and larger timeframe narrative.
- Preferred: Take out of LTF supply and closing confidently above VAH with IB extension up and sustained auction. Could be looking at a low/medium initiative day.
- Con: D1 C‑sup
