20251205 pre market



NEWS
1000 inflation data

CONDITION 1
5 day balance

CONDITION 0
eth tested a bit higher but is now back in

THOUGHTS
We are in Balance with a liitle up trajectory
I wait for a stronger liquidation to clean this poor structure up
Until then just do smaller scalps
AND: Do not try to anticipate this liquidation
For now we only see small liquidations, so take profits

20251205 recap



negative week for me
was tough to trade
much back and forth
divergence in sectors and news

Summarized:
no follow through esspecially on liquidations
we grinded higher and left weak structure behind


This week fed meeting
hard to say whats going on on mon and tue
often we do not see much on these days before a big news event

In the end we need a bigger liquidation
But do not anticipate this
Anticipating liquidations is a loosing game

Recap

eth tested below important levels but came back in
rth started with a rough liquidation
which was totally absorbed
This makes me think that a breakout to the upside could be in the cards so i hold overnight longs
