yesterday's price action was terrible because they were waiting to announce this news that pumped it after daily close.

If 1.1715 low breaks, its much safer to short.

I have business to run today and wont be on the chart - good luck!

I will reassess at the close of the next H4 candle. After the first hour of New York open.
May close at a loss. Let's see.

buy limit with an 1.4pip SL at 1.17417. Worth a shot, targeting +-20 pips...

If I am not SL by the end of the day. It means a lot in terms of Price... Larger trades will most likely be Longed the coming days, and will still counter scalp short.
Will keep TIGHT stops

I have clear bias now, LONG!

Not touching the red button unless its very obvious for scalp, even then, careful! - when trading against the order flow, the chart will print short signals to tempt opposing traders to use as fuel.

-- Last weeks Friday high taken, next April high!
- bottom is set!

Not blind longing, end of the week approaching, gonna study potential long setup's, preferably max pain scenarios.


Lovely volatility today, 50-60 pips!

CANCELLED

Asia lows, London lows and NY 7AM lows -all very suspicious.

- Shorting london High and targeting NY 7am lows - I doubt we break Wednesday high with current structure

--- invalid if 7am NY lows gets taken before London high

CANCELLED - no trigger during prime AM macro session 0930-1030

Above play cancelled!

Price peaked at a perfect location, creating a double top with London high.

If the low gets taken first (red dotted line)
- will long to take out London highs, invalidation at London pre-market low

Longing from the 62% retracement level in layers until the sweet spot at 70.5%

If all those low hanging fruit lows are not purged, I doubt we will have break out, if it reaches wednesday high at all, I think it will be a fake out.

Waiting patiently for NY PM macro session and see how price develops...

In fact, I am willing to short the first break out if it happens during NY PM macro session

hmmm, maybe today will close within range and no break out and after daily close the lows gets purged?

Because below Asia lows, if its closes as it is, will create a daily FVG

Weak lows purged, hoping for another attack on the fresh low, by 5-15 pips - this is where I will long.

Asia entry and kept it overnight!

First TP the LTF liquidity pool triple top of London and NY highs from yesterday and last TP Wednesday high, if we reach that before weekly close, but I think its possible, if London gets aggressive enough!

Moved SL at the bottom, virtually reduced risk by 95%, except for unrealized

Great analysis! I’ve been watching that 1.1715 level as well. It’s interesting to see how the liquidity at the Asia lows was purged before the move up. Do you think the upcoming NY PM macro will provide enough fuel to hit that Wednesday high before the weekly close, or are we looking at a range-bound Friday?

Proper close above 1.17545 and London/NY liquidity pool from yesterday becomes almost certain!

Vertical accumulation ongoing!

Disable red button!

If London/NY liq pool gets taken during London session, Wednesday high will be taken today, most likely during NY session!

Measured from Tuesday NY time (not session) low - Wednesday high - 50% = equilibrium or mid range
- it looks random, but price is accumulating

If you zoom out: 30min
- a 30min FVG, very sensitive during London opening session

Price do not provide retracement, it uses the range mentioned above to conduct its setup.
- this is very tricky to trade: because, if you are aggressive and price offer the retracement, you will have bad entry, or worst, if you are wrong, losses will be huge.
-- Yesterday I foresaw this, I had my entries trigger (resting limit orders) 20-30min before daily close, after daily close, the algos like to reset and you get 10+ pip spread, thus my last absolute bottom entry did not trigger (due to algos reset) and I had to fat finger (market entry) the last entry order - when Asia opened, the lows was kept in tact and thus why I fat fingered the last entry
--- I have been left out previously due these shenanigans and price marched without me, Yesterday I took a chance and it payed off!
