Nikkei cruising

+53p out

total 200p

think I'm good with that I'm tired.
off.

be back tomorrow.
will be watching it from the sidelines.

maybe it'll be filled.
but its a bull day.

bulls final entry point pushed lower to 36411

I have a suspicion it may be topping after a glorious bull day.
But we'll see we'll see.

Target for bears is lower to 38520.

Now I'm seeing action reaction resolution sequence !
Past 38674 , thats 100% bear territory till then bulls can reverse this.
On the upside I have 38730 if that breaks then bulls can take a shot at up move till then its going to be a battle
But I had a bear signal first thing in the morning at the open, and previous bull leg had its run almost maybe give or take 50p they don't always have to hit target to the point especially after multiple legs up.

And I read the bigger form as double T forming.
So many things you have to be aware of.
Its difficult.
But I'm getting used to it which is a good sign.

Been sitting here for over an hour.
Looks like there won't be much action til 7:30AM.
50p range thus far.

But I can't get out because I may never get a chance at the most optimal entry for bears.
Maybe add ons on resolution...

+100p out.

I keep getting out early not sure if thats something I should work at.
Idk.

Or maybe I'm being too hard on myself.

I've just been burnt so many times over the past decade maybe its a trauma response or maybe its just a sensible thing to do give me 3 more years think I'll find the answer by then.

All I know is you can't beat the damn thing it'll beat you dead if you tried.

Where are you bulls ???

But like I said I think this is a top and bears are sitting right at 38571.
I suspect bulls attempt will fail.

But they'll still have a go like yd from lower point.
I don't mind taking up bulls closer to 38571 and take on the failure.

Thats the plan, but I need confirmation , confirmation.

I think they're coming in from 38450

Failure, sold the failure +80p more.

I exited way before final target.

I don't mind it I think for now.

I'm done for the day.
Idk why these days I get tired easily, mentally I'm in my mid 30s so I don't know if its age, probably not but just tired of fighting I guess.

So if I can get off early I'll take the chance, but that doesn't mean I won't be watching the charts from the sidelines I probably will unless its a friday then I give myself a day off after I finish work.

Its tough work mentally and physically.

Adios.
Be back tomorrow.

went long

Out from long trade -14.5p

Reversed its a failure.

Target 38136-38106 area.

Forget about everything else now just follow the signs.
Devil is in the details.

There's no should's or would's in trading, if it fails it fails, if it goes it goes.
And when you spot weakness attack!

If you see strength go full force.
Till then observe and scout.

Even if you've learnt to see the signs I can't help but think about the eventual decline of ones mental capacity, this is an extremely high pressure job. And if your mind is not as sharp as it should be you might make a mistake and that mistake can be "fatal".

I just don't want to do it until that fatality occurs, I know I overthink still my mid 30s but I probably should seriously consider my exit strategy I mean I am willing to run this for a decade til my 40s and close up shop to do that I need to set up long term investment hopefully with the profits I generate with day trading.

Thats a thought in progress.

I mean trading has taught me so much and I'm grateful for every painful lesson, but man it can be so brutal emotionally even if things are going smooth maybe its a sign that I need to work on my psychology probably. I need to train myself to be "emotionless".

Out +145p

I have a feeling there'll be gap down at the open to 37463

I will fade the move, thats my official first move.

not much of a gap hmm...

Ok weird.
But I'll follow.

Its long failure if it comes up higher I'll add more, for now good with just one position.
Some kind of high frequency entry, as I'd like to call them its difficult to read them properly unlike the usual classic entries.

And what makes trading much more difficult "a failure" can "fail".
I know. I know.

The field is full of dynamites and not gold.
