Yestarday was not good trading day for me.
Main thing: I don`t belive what market show me!

Pre market plan



Description: ALL my idea based on previus resistance around 6950.
Scenario1(L): Broke resistance area and hold under 6950.
Scenario2(S): Test this area and like tuesday i will see same "Sell off" pattern.
Scenario3: Sideway day around 6950.

Day mission: One good trade

Post market view

It was "V-US day" pattern, first half day market was going down on cancel summit Tramp with NK. Second part was PB to open session price.

Pre market idea:
It completly done scenario 2 short from 6950 to 6900. Nice



Description: Day pattern "V-US" it very good pattern for continue move up. Also pWAP was suuport it also good for Long next day.

Trading statistic
PNL: 267$
Win rate: 100%
Risk reward:0,78
Total trades: 3
Play book trades: 2



Description: Day of scalping
First trade was good enterence becouse i see strong limit seller on price 6935. But exit not good. In my head im wait PB to VWAP(
Second trade was also good enterence, BUT after my enterence i see 500 contract on buy side and exit from deal. May be it was right idea.
Third trade was based on test this area where was more then 500 contracts and it was right place for stop and enterence. Exit was not good!

Day mission: Fail

P.S. But all my enterence give me "One good trade"))

Yesterday was very good for trading and buyers accept what they have same interest for continue buying.

My pre market plan for today:



Description: Based on yesterday "V-US" pattern im priorty on buyers side.

Scenario1: With out any PB to yesterday VWAP price go UP. Im look same support area around 6950 or little higher then today VWAP.
Scenario2: PB to VPOC week around 6920 and after strong strong buy. Look strong positive delta in W_VPOC area.
Scenario3: Price from opening go up and don`t find same support go to down. Not priority scenario, but this is market)

Day mission: Trade stat ALL GREEN

It was very weak day. Price do one impulse UP and after volume is gone and price walk

Pre market result:
- After "V-US" day im wait more stronger day then we have.



Desription: Side way day under main week area 6950. Wait continue move higher

Additional interest moment:

Continue look together with ES. And it give me more clear info about NQ and in which condition they stay now. Here one thing what i see at friday and give me additional info.



Description: One of the example when NQ stronger then ES.

Trading statistic
PNL: 476$
Win ratio:100%
Risk/reward: 1,40
Total trades:3
Play book trades:2



Description. I see what NQ stronger then ES! And im read what market tell me! It was good day in cooperation with market))

First two trades more based on VWAP broke. First trade was dangerous! Second trade was OK!
Last trade was also good.

Day mission: DONE!!

P.S. It was very good when i understand what market do and what market can be do. Great! Do same in future!

Total week trading statistic
PNL: 567$
Avg. win ratio: 62%
Avg. risk/reward: 1,09
Avg. day trades: 3,06

Positive moment:
- Clear situation with trades on opening. Trade only "sell off" and "buy all";
- Start look correlation with ES. And understand in which condition now NQ.
- More trades from my Playbook then in last week;
- Step by step do right journal on FIO))

Negative moment:
- Time to time don`t wait accept "sell stop"/"buy stop" pattern;
- Main problem with exit! Look Risk/reward and wait !
- Time to time jump to same deal with out any pattern!!!

Weekly market view

First i want look what market do in condition with previus week:



Description: It looks like side way move BUT with slow-slow up potential.
If look on delta it looks like sideway week not ended and in next time we can see same summer side way days.
One bad thing on this week was in monday and tuesday market open with good gap BUT buyers was not ready continue buy and go down for close gap.

Month profile:



Description: One important things what at this week we tested my support area with low volume month area. Test was ended good and it also show what market can go up continue!

Summery: Wait reaction on 6950 at monday. May be side way days around 6900-6950. BUT buyers must control 6900.

Next week- next GOAL)
Main thing for next week it Playbooks trading!
Quantity does not mean quality

Major news, releases
1. In EU zone same political crisis. Last week was in Spain and now same problem in Italy. Not too much postive for power buy start
2. Economic releases today: CB Consumer Confidence 17:00 (exp. 128,2)

Pre market idea
I like start week with postive scenario for positive things) This week too much economic releases and today im not wait same volatility day



Description: Im prepare my scenario based on VPOC month it around 6900.
Scenario1: Price don`t show PB to 6900 area and slow-slow go UP. Price must hold under 6950 for continue go UP
Scenario2: On opening we look same slow PB to 6900 and in this area we must see strong buyers signal for reverse price to UP.
Scenario3: Price testing 6900 area and no find same buyers and continue go down slowly

Day mission: ALL trades from Playbook

Post market view
It was normal day for money BUT not good day for week of PlayBook! Only two trades was correct
Pre market plan:
- Main idea about scenario2 was right! And 6900 looks like buyers take a control on this price

Main facts


Description:
1. NQ was stronger then ES
2. Buyers control 6900

Interest moment

NONE

Trading statistic
PNL: 355$
Win ratio: 60%
Risk/reward: 1,59
Trades:5
Playbook trades:2



Description:
-First two trade based on price support. But delta was very poor. Not good trades. Wait your pattern
-Next two trades was OK! BUT second trade was may be very early. In another way i see how ES fatal go down and NQ stay strong. Any way it was good place.
- Last trade was OK with re test this support area.

Day mission: FAIL
