Bearished Bias, however we visited the support at 20 on ES already overnight. which makes me a bit more cautious on a potential reversal today. News obviously isn't good but that's the perfect recipe for a reversal. When everyone is bearish, MM like to run it up at some point. I'm open to a dip yet green close.




Instead of dip first, we went up and then dipped. I had a great short location but cut it short way too soon. Could I have done better? of course but was too afraid of a rally for some reason. Also my profit goal have reached already combined with some globex trades so the thought was why push my luck, just take the sure thing and be done with it. Greed have been my downfall more than once. Be ok with missing a move.

My trading journey have been a long one. And having finally reached success

Enjoying your journal and can relate to the long journey. Still working on becoming consistently profitable myself. If you don't mind sharing, I'm wondering what was the turning point/light bulb/changes that resulted in you finally becoming successful? Thanks.

Learning Volume spread analysis was my turning point. It tied up together all the other things i learned, from pivot trading to order flow etc.

The important thing is understand your str and weakness and then find a method that works for your personality. I'm not a patient person, so scalping is my main tool and I focused on finding high probability setups for that aspect.

Decent day juggling between accounts, need to get use to it again. Ended up positive despite not catching the trend on NQ. Mostly fading reactionary Supply and Demand zones. I do find it's easier to get emotion with small accounts as there is little to no luxury of scaling in or taking partial profits.
