Looking at shorting it as its' broken LTF MS so hopefully things will ripple through just waiting for an entry
Comment:
Got a fill but considering the trade is so tight i should have waited for a 5m breakdown 2.88178 was the entry and the stop is at 2.94090
Comment:
If there is a strong breakdown i will considering adding onto the postion
Comment:
I was in to much of a rush to get into the trade and also I didnt wait for a breakdown the time of day is right if i get a close above my br- i will exit the trade
Trade closed: stop reached

Comment:
Major mistake here was not basing the idea of a HTF level and waiting for the breakdown
Comment:
Took another entry on a br- of a breakdown I didn't wait exactly for my fill but pretty much got it.
Comment:
Stop was too tight, it spread me an extra 17 and stop was only 50 something another factor might be some NFP mess around in order flow
Comment:
Went against the higher time frame order flow that was another major mistake without having any noteworthy ms breaks
Comment:
Timing was a little off here
Comment:
That's what i was waiting for timing needs to improve, really hurt myself here and also not giving the stop enough room
Trade closed: target reached:
I also didn't wait for a confirmation before exiting or quickly got out and didn't counter trend.
