20231106 pre market



News and numbers
nothing today
powell speaks wed and thrsd

Objectives
We have seen a V kind reversal
We have very poor strucure below us with 2 gaps
we open in range and in the upper part of the onr

Thoughts
Normal would be to see some balance sooner or later
Do not sit in longs as we are short term overbought
Do not anticipate liquidations
See what is and wait for some sweetspot

20231106 post market


  • We are coming a bit into balance with yesterdays inside day
  • I did not one trade yesterday
  • My no 1 focus at the moment is to keep away from bad trades


My rotten apples
  1. Expecting IMBALALANCE where inappropriate
  2. SCALP without context
  3. This time different-Execution
  4. Anticipating Liquidaton

This is a mindset shift from ADVENTURER to AVOIDER

NQ big picture 2


  • we pulled back to yearly vwap which held
  • from there we came up fast and with poor structure
  • The big picture looks strong but short term we are potentially overextended to the upside
  • Yearly and octebers vpoc are close above us

trades 11 08



  • We came in high and looked twice about rth h without getting traction so i shorted it
  • Added as it became more convincing
  • It was very slow for a liquidation and it had no real follow through but formally it was otf down
  • I had to leave for an appointment, Left one in
  • We reached weekly vwap and came back in
  • We did not reach rth l so we ended as an quasi inside day which is a first sign of getting a bit into balance
  • Still sitting on the flagpole :-)

20231109 pre market


News and numbers
Powell speaks 2pm

Objectives
Nothing new, still sitting on the flagpole

Thoughts
Do not sit in longs
Do not anticipate liquidation
I expect it to get calm around midtime before the powell speech
Trade the first 1-2 hours and then call it a day
Do not watch the powell bs
