DVAL Long.
I took three attempts at this trade. The first two were about 10-15 min before 7:00 am when vol starts to pick up more, but sometimes there can be good opportunities. This is one of my best "setups" so I knew I just had to take it. The first trade i managed to break even on, I got in but realized i'd probably get squeezed out as the bids started to pull. The next trade I followed up buying a bit lower after the selling stopped and my trade was still valid. Again however no buying came in and I scratched the trade.
Third times the charm. This was about 15 min later and prices had done nothing since but show a lack of activity.. then sellers started to come in strength and CLEARLY failed to break from the VN lower. This was my signal as the Context and Location were still valid but this time the Confirmation was definite. Win.
*again one tip for myself is to try holding onto to these ones longer*
Short sessions for me on Tuesdays so this was all I got the opportunity for this morning. An important part of my strategy is timing so I have no problems getting out early if I timed a trade wrong, id rather have a good entry to manage my trade from a position of strength. Im pleased to have pulled off a scratch on the first two and still had the conviction to recognize the 3rd opportunity when it came across.
