SL to 94s
TP 82 & 78

Paid 83 & 75. +29 ticks.

...had the opportunity to add twice to the posn but didnt @ 89s & 86s (this was 10mins before 75s traded). was bit apprehensive cos of friday & slow flow.

moved the exit on 2nd lot to TP 75 cos it looked like the area for a great long trade on the hourly, at the start of the zone you wld expect demand coming back in. 73s was the best buy, & its just bounced to 82s.



Up +14 ticks for the day, not sure if will be placing another trade. Will give it another hour.

No more trades today, the market was pretty slow all day yet it still gave up a few very good setups.

Day results............
Scalp: +3 (woohoo its +ve)
Swing trade 1: -8
Swing trade 2: -6
Swing trade 3: +29

Total +14 incl comms. Trade log attached:

(i misposted entry prices today due to things happening quite fast, apols)

Positives: confident in my method....gd last trade!
negatives: dont trade in low vol; 1st trade another loser - reason?; shld have averaged in on last trade - signals were perfect; more conviction/aggression/missed trades?

will look at my stats at the w/e & post some comments, but so far quite happy with how things are going, long way to go though & hopefully see you at the end.

have a gd w/e all.

Morning all,

Hope everyone had a gd w/e. I have prob with mkt delta charts again.

Another inside day on fri, thursdays range was 15845-15900 so looking for bo of that to upside or downside, but mindful of fake bo's (fakeout, if you wish). There is nice bull flag on the daily, but i wont have any bias unless developing PA provides more info.

Heres daily chart (non continuous so ignore vol data):




I dont have any close clear levels on higher t/fs as yet, so will update as day progresses. Also going to be cautious trading any of fridays intra day levels as they have been hit a number of times.

g/l.

Long @ 81s looked ok setup on the 1 min, though PA on the 15min with LLs & LHs discounted this one for me. It was gd for a few ticks as bounced off quite quick, but rr looks poor & i keep getting steam rollered on my intra day levels in the morning so gave it a miss.

Chart attached:

it went 90 bid then, the setup was good.

if it could make a new high above recent swing high of >92s, then wld want a small retrace with a decent, clean setup and i will be looking for a poss long for a breakout trade (with tight SL).

getting through 90s going to be tough, but nice reaction away from 81s.

edit: scratched the trade SOLD 83s

next possible long setup on fri demand area, but will wait for more PA confirmation as this is new day lows, might be buying a bit higher here.
