20240402 pre market



News
numbers at 10:00
several fed speakers

Condition
yesterday look above balance area and fail
today continuation with a large gap down below balance area

Thoughts
Good to see some volatility
i will navigate in relation to the two balance areas
on the higher tf we moved up a long way. We could be ready for somy bigger liquidation but we do not have to
Only accepting back in the upper balance area will bring us back to the prior status
We are at the moment testing the bottom of the fed spike
other levels are weekly vpoc at 5240
vah ot poc of the bigger balance area

Condition
large back up brings us near vah of upper balance area
a bigger liquidation is off the table for now

Thoughts
the market stays strong
smaller breaks are buyable
only a clear strong break changes this

i do not buy large gaps early

I HAVE NO INTEREST IN BEING PUSHED AROUND IN B-LOCATIONS

20240405 pre market


News
We had nfp this morning

Condition
Tough liquidation break yesterday
brings us inside developing value of yearly vwap

Thoughts
Can be the start of something bigger, can be bought back fast, we do not know
Try to find good spots and trade against moves that fail
But do not catch tops and especially bottoms too agressive, let it develop

We had a tough break on thursday followed by covering on friday

If we see price accepting above the belly chances should be good that the break is over
Liquidation strenghtens a market
