after immediate sign of strength and bullish reaction closing back in OR, scaled in with small position equivalent to position at BE already with SL below the stopping volume. risk was small enough that i didn't wait for trend alignment. though BE position barely survived the dump, i was fine with it as it counts only as one fifth of my predefined risk i am used to take.
i am just lucky to be there at that time as i have not been around for the whole day.

the first batch of sells were sells off an up wave with zero sow .....also I would recommend allowing at least the first 15 min of or to set up prior to trading.

On second long setup I took it because there was a NS testing a HV Bar zone. As I read book I should entry above NS so here it is.

On first short setup I took short because they made a HV Downbar which I think was a SOW and NQ made ND and I entry short when market move down, under the ND trigger.

What do you think ?

I love trading 10 min charts .. for me its just the right time frame.

specially if trading in the trend of 30

I always allow first 10 to set up

i think your first buy was off the top of the first 10 min or

your mistake was allow the 10 min or to form and then wait for your trades. There was only weakness of the top

this is analysis of first trade. The price did not make it past the top of the first 10 min so it was no strong

Your comment first:Sell stop under the ND is the right entry
Then:You took entry on downbar, not good.

I dont understand this mate SO where I should take entry?

I know it's not vsa but i feel it compliments and may help, try adding Bollinger bands, as this will show you where the market is overbought or oversold.

Syntaxerror recommended this
Quoting SyntaxError
Try this for you guys who are all over the place and there are plenty of you getting lost in this stuff Strip back everything except OHLCV from your chart Use a standard bar chart Add 1 standard indicator for volatility .. Bollinger Bands standard settings Nothing more Stay with minimum time frame of 15 mins nothing lower Now look at the closes below the lower band and look at the cause and effect around those closes with volume Keep looking until you see it Its all there
