20240321 pre market


News
numbers at 9:45 and 10
yesterday fed

Condition
breaking out of 4 week balance area
we open with gap up on 100% long overnight inventory

Thoughts
The market is of course very bullish as long as we hold the breakout
On a shorter tf inventory is already very long
I do not buy large gaps early
If you want to buy, buy breaks

20240322 pre market



News
Powell is speaking at the moment

Condition
Succesful breakout of 4w balance
Yesterday it seemed that is has become a bit too long resulting in a poor high and some backing away
I trade from the standpoint that we transition to Balance/Consolidation

Thoughts/what to stay away from
trade according to condition
wait for signs of inflection points
go for smaller trades

trades 20240322 friday



Man, is this grindy, costing me nerves to get a few points
I finish the day to go into the weekend with a "success"
Good management here in the way that i stood this grind and did not press market exit to get psychological release

20240325 pre market



News
10:00 numbers


Condition
Consolidating last weeks up move

We open with gap down in an up-market

Thoughts
If overlaying condition stays up longs after exhaustion of short-moves seem appropriate

It looked bullish after failing on the short side
But not much volume and participation
We are not getting into friday range, perhaps it rolls over, i dont know...
