End of Trading Week Lesson:

Once my rules are met trade without fear


Review and apply change in IOF before taking reversals and trades
Need more practice in directional bias (too many simple mistakes)

NB: Need to study sessions on high probability entries (check discussion on group)

TRADE ANALYSIS #2- VOLATILITY 25

DEBREIF:
Price did not reject off daily zone
Lesson learnt on this trade: trade what I see not what I know. Must wait for price to reject off
daily zone before considering this as a selling opportunity.

TRADE ANALYSIS #5 EURUSD

DEBEIF:
❖ On the monthly EU has a long-term bullish impulsiveness with intermediate term
corrective swings.
❖ Classic AMD cycle based on LPC understanding spotted on weekly & monthly.
❖ First we had an accumulation
❖ The manipulation to take out liquidity
❖ Confirmed liquidity grab when price BMS above bearish OB now breaker
❖ And distributing impulsively to the upside
❖ This was followed by an accumulation
❖ Then a manipulation to the downside creating a bearish corrective trend
❖ Higher probability odds are added to this corrective trend based on its compressed
structure, which shows an unwillingness of major market participants to short EU.
❖ Further, the monthly OB on Feb 2017, price found support here in March 2020
❖ This retest of OB, the long term swing low was not taken out, so this indicates
bullishness on the EU, which happened late on.
❖ Currently based on weekly structure, I am waiting for price to react off the
FVGF+KOB+BMS for a buying opportunity to target the liquidity pool.

NFP-PRE-ANALYSIS

FOR NFP I AM EXPECTING A WHIPSAW EFFECT AT INITIAL RELEASE OF DATA.


DUE TO MIXED PRE-NFP ECONOMIC INDICATORS. I AM EXPECTING
RETAILERS TO ANTICIPATE A BAD NFP BUT US JOBS MAY SURPRISE THE
MARKET AND CAUSE A BULLISH RUN (TRAP NEWS). THE TREND IS BEARISH
AND THERE ARE NO SUPPORTING FACTORS FOR A BULLISH ENVIRONMENT.
PRICE ACTION ADDS CONFLUENCE TO MY FUNDAMENTAL ASSUMPTION
BECAUSE OF THE CURRENT MARKET STRUCTURE, NFP MAY INITIATE A
TEMPORARY BUY WHICH INEVITABLY IS A TRAP TO SELL NEXT WEEK. LET US
SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
HOLD SELL ON EU
HOLD BUY ON UC
