One thing, what I`m add to this rule! I`m add pre market volume. In summery:
First if volatility less then 8 + pre market less then 80k. That means don`t trade today. If for example volatility less then 8, BUT pre market Volume more then 80k, it possible trading day.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Today volatility on NQ is too low. And I`m will be test YM for trade with same good idea.
Pre market plan:
Description: After what i see at Friday and today during globex session i will be bet today on correction. NQ was much stronger all last week and YM was weak then other market. Today my main idea it YM pull back to VPOC area last week. 25880 this is LIS price for today.
Sceanrio1: Price open with short range channel and go down. In this case i will be look same "buy stop" area on OrderFlow.
Sceanrio2: Price go higher and test once more 25900 area and after fail down. I will be look in this case 25880 must be like resistance area.
Scenario3: Price jump up and buyers will be strong hold 25900 price. In this case i will be look to buy.

Dily Fail Coment
It was wrong, bad day with few big errors:
1. Broke my RM "3+1". All first 3 trades was LOSS, but I`m continue trade! My daily max volume it 4 BUT i do 10 trades!! WRONG! Repair it! And now I`m add meditation pause before market open for remember ALL my Rules bwfore I`m start trade.
2. I have a plan! Good! But today I don`t trade him. I`m sell above my sell area 7380! Wrong!!
3. I am jump from NQ to YM and came back! Wrong If I trade correlation that mean I must have plan for NQ and YM too.
Market view
Description: My pre market plan was not good!
Market recap
Description: At 7400 area was good same seller.
Yday was FOMC day, I`m don`t trade!
After strong loss day I`m find good solution how I can be better then yday !)
Problem: I`m always prepare my trading plan before I start trade! But very offen Im don`t trade my plan! WRONG!
Idea: I`m always draw my plan in screenshot program and during trading sesion I`m don`t see him! Now I will be draw in IRT soft directly! And during trading session I always will be see my trading level!
Pre market plan
Description: Like always i will be look on daily gap. If price don`t close gap that i will be look same short around 7380 and on 7400. 7400 must be strong resistance area!
Sceanrio1: Same sideway day around 7400-7350.
Scenario2: Afer open price fail under 7380 and hold there! I will be look to PB 7380 area and look to same sell signal!
Sceanrio3: Buyers to strong And will be hold price above O/N Low long time and after broke 7400 area.
Market recap
Market comment:
Market: NQ was strong and move ALL market higher and higher!
Trading: Good! I don`t jump to same stupid trade! My pre market plan was bad! By Volume profile and my Trading Zone I`m find same potential support area around 7440, but price go higher and I switch off PC and go home
Market view
Description: Perfect example when I clear see what my pre market plan was wrong! But last my additional rule about: "Don`t sell above yday high + O/N High", work good!
Market recap
Description: Market don`t show PB to my support area 7440
Trading result
NONE
P.S. Becouse I`m trade my plan!!!!!
Pre market plan
Description: Yday was "Strong buy" day pattern. Today prioritet to long, BUT like always I will be look on gap. And what market will be do with him!
Sceanrio1: Base on reverse pattern price try to go and close gap but find strong sellers in this case I will be look to short in 7500 area.
Scenario2: Price go and close gap and after may be show PB to 7480-7500 in this case I will be look on Long
Scenario3: Same sell off scenario, in this case i will be look on 7480 area.
Positive moment
1. I`m learn! That is realy important!
2. I`m find good plane to draw my pre-market plan directly in IRT.
Description: On Market View chart I really see how my pre market plan was good.
3. After when I add YM to trading, I understand what I must do my stop loss bigger then 12 tick! My emotinal level more better when I see what stop stay not near with my enterence.
4. I must do pause after first trading hour. And look my check list for this pause!
5. I`m understand what my trading stratagy is good! But I`m don`t follow my rules!
Negative moment
1. Friday was biggest lose in last 2 years! ((
2. I`m day by day broke my RM "3+1". WRONG!! I must work much better about this qestion!
Summary
Good lesson, BUT expensive(( . On next week I must better work with my RULES!!
Pre market plan
Description: Today ISM Manufacturing PMI at 5 o`clock! I`m don`t wait today same strong buy/sell day like it was at Friday.
Scenario1: This is scenario will be looks like step by step PB higher. Important for me two area for it 7550 and 7570.
Scenario2: Price continue go lower first 15-30 and after re-test O/N Low I wiil be look same strong buyers, it Scenario like "New day low and GO".
Scenario3: Market continue start sell to close gap from 13/03. Like in sceanrio1 i will be look 7550 and 7570.

Scenario2: Buyers continue buy after yday close gap. Look what will be in 7330 and 7350 area.
Sceanrio3: Price after open go lower with strong sellers power and will be strong hold 7330, with sceanrio I will be wait to close next gap.

Description: Yday NQ test once more 7300 and today we have good up gap. As usual i will be trade this gap.
Scenario1: This is PB scenario. Price hit yday high and find strong buyers with good impulse up.
Scenario2: Price jump higher after open and i will be wait PB to 7380 or if ALL market will be too strong I will be look also on 7400.
Sceanrio3: After open price go sideway move and go down to close daily gap. If price fail to 7330 area in this case I will be look to short.
