Both of the long entries you showed look very good. The first one is interesting in that the sequence from bar 10 (bull trend bar forming double-bottom at 2921.50) through bar 16 was somewhat tricky to me. Maybe you saw this sequence more clearly than me! Based off bars 8 & 9, the high of bar 13 was right in a good area to signal a decent pullback short position, right around the 61.8% retracement if you care about fibonacci, very common pullback level, but then bar 16 formed a 23.6% pullback going the other way and was a good reversal bar for the bulls, bounced right off 200EMA too.

Your second entry at bar 22 is even stronger imho, given the earlier context, forming a second double-bottom, a pullback-to-mid (again based off bars 8 & 9) and closing as a very strong bull trend bar. I hope I would have bought the close of bar 22 had I been watching the market at this time.

I hope you don't mind me posting here, good trading @Netzel!

Snax, thank you for the comments, I do not mind the post.

If you look at my premarket post, specifically notes #2 and #4, I have identified the HVN-zone. This was a very important zone in reference to market context. The bar that broke through was an attempt to find sellers, it could have been viewed as a failed attempt or false break. The internals were not showing weakness and the $tick was holding above zero. That is why the long was justified in that zone.
