Patient with the news on the jobs numbers. Immediate drop on the news but it was positive. Being that it was, I decided to wait because there was an opportunity that it could have been a liquidity grab below 3720's equal low and a run for the buy side liquidity. Sold on news break and on times & sales response. Saw the order flow aim at the ask price and the...
SPX Loss 9-30-22 Too early Today attempted buying and loss after jumping in too early with a tight SL. Only used about an 1/8th of my normal lot size so the loss is nothing major at all. Was looking for a move off of the 15m+FVG and it moved instead off of the 15m+OB. Wasn't being patient this morning with this setup and jumped in before the orders came...
News release dropped us but no clean entry until you get down to the 1m chart. Missed this drop but I'm okay with that. NAS is driving the charts today so far and not a lot of orders have come in on SPX so far. I'm going to sit on this for now until I see something heavy on the bid or ask before I do anything this morning.
SPX Sell 9/28/22 Didn't get a chance to post it and its already at BE and target 1 Adjusted SL on the open to 3688 Partialed at target 2 Mid-week expectation valid and from the highs we have dropped to the area we though it would push to. The question is still, do we stay inside the candle from yesterday on the daily (candle made this week's high and...
So far we've rejected the weekly high and pushed down into the LTF points of interest. Going into the premarket and NY session I'll be looking for signs of rejection to return to the upside or a continuation of the overall trend. Mostly favoring a neutral to bearish point of view on this but I don't mind reacting on movement to the upside for a buy if the...
Today took a trade based on the 4H setup as the 10am candle opened. Saw that we had a LTF FVG on the 15m (bearish) that failed and became short term bullish and got the entry on the 15m-FVG(H). Order flow confirmed entry to the upside. Buyers hit the bid price at the entry and followed through afterwards. Stop loss in profits and partialed at target 2 so this...
Looking for a retracement at this area for rejection and continuation. No reason for us to move higher than this but if we do the A/S range left a FVG, an -OB, TDO, and the daily open as supply. Going to be waiting for the times & sales to show the entry. The pass few days NAS has shown all the order flow except for the afternoon entry on SPX. Projected...
Looks like NAS just took the 1H-FVG down and this may be the NY session high. T&S is lining up with the 1H-FVG rejection at the moment so we'll see if we get any volume to kick us higher or else this one doesn't meet my entry requirements.
Moved my SL too early and flushed out at BE. Not a lot of volume on SPX shown until 10:02am at the TDO. NAS showed the volume kick in just before the bell and 9:32am was the actual move up. NAS made a HL while SPX and US30 both made LL on the daily charts. Then on the 4H we saw the first up candle and price held inside of that candle with volume to the...
