NQ had a phenomenal run-up since yesterday.
It was hard to find any sign of weakness.

In the 15 min. TF I found the correct Fork to apply that gives me any usable information about price.

1. The Shiff-Fork projects price to the upside, but also expose the fact that price fell out of the projection below the L-MLH.

2. Price stopped at the HVN. Or better, the Algos bought price at that level (violett line).

3. Price had it's first "Test" of the L-MLH, and soon after the second one, interfering with the TL from way above. Such "coincidence" I call "Confluence".

4. My Scalping filters, the Indicators also signaled that it's time to give it a go.

5. Finally I observed the Bid/Ask Volume and saw large order got thrown at the Bid. This is my ticket to ride and I'm short the market.
Comment:
Here's a better look at the whole idea:

Comment:
Taking partial profit right before the market open.
Trade closed manually:
Aaand out.
Comment:
Closed the position right before the news.
This was just a quick scalp and was going OK for a Bread & Butter trade.
