Pre market plan

Description: Yday NQ was weak then other index`s. US-China trade deal problem is not over. I`m bet on short BUT with LIS 7440 area for short.
Scenario1: Price after open will be in same range and after go down and test once more 7360 area.
Scenario1.2: Same like scenario1 BUT price go continue down, don`t find buyers around 7360 area.
Scenario 2: Price jump up after open and then buyers will be hold price above yday high. Look to session VWAP and 7440 area.

Market recap
Daily comment
Market: Buyers was positive and hold gap and give good opportunity for trade from 7440 area.
Developing process: Perfect day for grow! OrderFlow+Trade Zone+ VWAP can give powerful informartion about market condition. More info in "Market context"

Market view

Description: I think buyers wait info about US-China deal. Now market on sell side.

Market context

Description: Powerful day for grow and learn! Perfect!

Trading result

Description: IMPORTANT! Always do "FHCL" and follow RM and MM rule!!

Pre market plan

Description: Market under pressure, BUT i think this is normal step by step go down for find buyers and today big gap day without any strong news catalyst that means for me NQ can came back to 7360-7440 area.
Scenario1: Short scenario if price find strong seller around 7360 area and go step by step down.
Scenario2: Long scenario and price came back to price range above 7360 area.

Market recap
Daily comment
Market: Tested new low and market not ready sell more
Developing process: Today I was lucky, I have small loss (-95), but potential can has much much more! Wrong day with MY rule! Never broke RM, MM and trade your plan!

Market view

Description: May be this is "New low and GO". Important price 7320. Must be like support

Market context
Idea: If ALL index`s open strong above/bellow daily VWAP. Wait same of them PB to VWAP area if on market don`t have same strong US news.

Trading result

Description: Dangerous day! Never do it again!

I`m paid 250$ for good learning week

Main wrong moment in my trading
1. Too much stupid and wrong trades!
2. My win ratio is very very bad!

What I can do for be better
1. Work under market reading process
2. Next week focus on rules and trading process!
3. Test story about don`t buy under daily+session VWAP

Example:

Description:
1. After first two trade i has +300$;
2. I`am start buy around 7340 this is wrong. I must wait good buyers reaction. What I see at this moment on OrderFlow that was not enough.
3. My Trading Zone+OrderFlow+ VWAP this is good model for reading market process. Do it well!

Trading result

Description: Too mach stupid trade! Wrong!

Intro
This is weekly report don`t will be like standart weekly report, this is post about what I can do for be better and what I must change or update in my trading skill.

Trading idea
After few days when I don`t trade and only look I`m understand what I have two type of days:
- Day when I clear understand my real trading plan and do him;
- I don`t have clear plan and ONLY has "pre market plan" with same price level.

I repeat too much trading days and understand what pre market plan must have strong and good MAIN IDEA. If my main idea is work this is good and I have positive PNL. If I don`t have idea, STOP and ONLY watch.

Main idea concept
1. Idea must contain direction and level (Trading Zone);
2. Main idea this is trading stratagy like "Gap and GO", "Close VWAP gap" and etc.
3. Main idea must be focus on market view.

Example:
Monday:
Idea:
- Close daily gap;
- Level 7100;
OR
Friday:
Idea:
- Close VWAP red gap on NQ
- Level: O/N Low;

That means when in my head clear situation I mast trade it. If I don`t understand and ONLY have same price this is WRONG and this is not work in my case! I must trade one or two idea MAX!

Update idea about plan
During watching today session. I`m understand what my main idea can`t work full day and today was good example with idea "Buy NQ around 7100 for close gap". During First hour open market I see what YM move much better then other index`s and I`m generate idea about "Buy YM on PB to 24840". That means I must have strong and clear Main idea for First hour and after FHCL I can update my plan! )


P.S. Trading like pazzle with rules and plans

After 3 weeks what I don`t trade, I`m ready came back with few idea how my trading can be better.

Main trading idea:
1. Like I wrote before now I must have two idea on day this is idea`s can be same or different (Most main First hour idea it "Close VWAP gap" on idex`s or Crude Oil).
2. Summer this is low volatility period BUT what i see during long time:

Description: Low volatility scenario can work if volatility less then 10.

Description: During low volatility period price try to find avarage price of day. Only on O/N Low and High area can be same good volatility. Focus on this area and test it.
