Well this one went well, i used the opening range levels, from 8:00 (9:00 EST) to 8:05 (9:05 EST), to determine my first trade, price broke upper level, and retest it, so i got in around this zone.

Best Regards.

JD

Yo great man, you entered the trade without chopzone confirmation. Is it not primary yet if you consider that support zone?

I want to thank you for your advice about improving my trades with the price action analysis. i'm doing that really hard these days!

Hello @Castellano,

yes i entered the trade without the confirmation on the chopzone for various reasons:

1. the CCI was not able to cross hard the -100 level,
2. The SMAīs were supporting the Long Trade,
3. The price was testing the High of my opening range normally this is rejected.
4. I had confluence with the 50% Fib level (92.62 to 93.19)

This lead me to take the trade.

Check your inbox (PM) iīll send a good ebook for you to read,.

CHeers,

JD

Both perfect entries: levels, chopzone and sidewinder confermed!

You said you were not at your best. Maybe... but you respected the rules, waiting for the best way, avoiding mistakes. It's a lesson for me.

Nice shot!
