…so it was a small correction.
According to how the zones played out, I can nearly hear @matevisky ’s voice: „Man, why don’t you trade your zones from zone to zone?”

Of course, you're right.. My phrase for this is "no money for bunnies".
I just don't have the balls to sit 30-50 minutes, but I try to grow some

Bias: neutral
Overnight the bears pulled back the price under Friday’s close with more than one point.
The price stayed mostly in the 74.85-75.4 zone. Under this, there’s the 74.25-74.44 as support, 76.08-76.35 as first resistance.

The zones for today:

80.9-81.42
80.5-80.65
79.7-80.3
78.4-79
77.1-78
76.5-76.9
76.08-76.35
74.85-75.4
74.25-74.44

A low volume day, and a bad decision:

Trade 1:
Time: 9:49
Buy 2 @ 75.42
Sell 2 @ 75.36
P&L w. commissions: -139.24
So, this is what you get, when trading on „feelings”. I was waiting for a breakout from the edge of the zone, but I had no sign to rely on, no trigger according to my rules. Why did I enter, then? I have no idea... I was undisciplined, and payed the price.

After this bad trade, I wanted to enter short at 10:28, but my order didn’t go through, it was rejected by the platform! Of course it would be the winner of the day…

P&L for the day: -139.24
P&L for the month: 29.88
P&L from 09.24: 2081.94

Bias: slightly bearish

Overnight the bulls showed some strenght, but the 76.09-76.35 zone stopped them (), and the bears pulled back, nullified the overnight gain.
Under the 74.97-75.43 zone I’m looking for shorts, the next support is 74.25-74.44

The zones for today:

80.9-81.42
80.5-80.65
79.7-80.3
78.4-79
77.15-78
76.65-76.82
76.09-76.35
75.55-75.67
74.97-75.43
74.25-74.44

Unfortunately I hit my max daily loss, so the day’s over for today. I have to get up from the table, according to my rules.

Trade 1:
Time: 9:26
Buy 1 @ 75.05
Sell 1 @ 75.03
P&L w. commissions: -24.64
An absolute unusual one: I’d enter on the long side, with 1 contract, and 10 tick SL, waiting for 30 ticks. The price turned at the ONL, and the first sell imbalance came, and I was looking for shorts anyways, so I headed for the exit. Glad I did.

Trade 2:
Time: 9:52
Buy 2 @ 74.82
Sell 2 @ 74.76
P&L w. commissions: -129,24
I know, I know. Why long? Because I’ve never seen this big buy imbalance before: 505! And also at the new POC.. Anyways, the bears absorbed th whole stuff, after my order triggered.


Trade 3:
Time: 9:57
Sell 2 @ 74.69
Buy 2 @ 74.76
P&L w. commissions: -149.24
My first (and last) short: I was waiting for a breakdown, it didn’t happen. Hit stop with big slippage.


P&L for the day: -303.12
P&L for the month: -273.24
P&L from 09.24: 1778.82
