Condition 1
Is the move to the upper end of balance area finished?
I do not know
We had a news triggered liquidation

Condition 0
spent eth in lower part of range or below
open in the belly

Thoughts
acceptance above belly h could bring the long scenario back
acceptance below onl / filling the gap would favor that the long move is finished
I expect chop netween bellly h and onl = no early trade here

Hey friend. Looks like supply demand levels and then marking out key news/econ pieces and the levels there.

What type of trading do you do?

Personally for me when I do stocks or futures. I use daily charts to get my big picture ideas on what I think should happen then use a 5minute chart to enter/exit positions based on patterns.

I use a 9ema, 20ema, 50ema and vwap on my intraday charts.

majority of the time I look for trends based on the daily + premarket action then buy dips down to support . If there is a big trend then the first pullback to the 9ema/20ema zone (i shade in the zone )

For steeper pulls 50ema or vwap. On the nq or mnq contracts the 50ema works really well. Let me know if you need anything!
