Trade Review : Good-Solid
[GOOD]Seq Selection [GOOD]Entries [OK]Exits [GOOD]Exposure [GOOD]Psyche
Sequence 1 - Today we opened in a triangle flag pattern from the globex session with block bars leading up to the flag. I entered on a C(500 cycle Nt on the break of some 5 probars. This entry was a bit early and i had to sit throught some heat eventually closing at a small loss. I actually should have held here because price never broke down below the probar that printed on the 15t. No Regrets though.
Sequence 2 - Same Trade as the original just a reentry at higher prices, Good entry. I was able to exit 1 off at 3pt target but failed to close the 2nd and 3rd lot and wound up out with a tick after having multiple chances to close at 3+. Poor Exits on this trade.
Sequence 3 - This was also a followup from the same premise, my entry was again a bit pricey but we had price action momentum. I was able to get on and give it a chance maxing out on the position.

ADJUSTMENTS & OBSERVATIONS:

Volume profile bars(Matrix) prints below 400# after printing larger Vol.
** Notice the 47 contract traded on the very LOW after 2235 traded the price before!
$TICK has moved to or below -800
These are good indication that price is subject to reverse. Look for price to hold with professionals or block bars printing on any time frame after this bounce for confirmation to enter.
Look for TICK Divergence and stay with it -
The Divergence has the following attribute:
** NOTE For Longs ALL the criteria should be ABOVE & For shorts ALL the criteria should be BELOW**
Taking Profit/Leaving Money on the Table - Today i left alote of money on table but in a bad way. I failed to close on my 2nd lots looking to get more out of them and wound up closing with ticks instead of points, 6pts to be exact... This is totally unacceptable and must be corrected. Do Maat work for greed and acceptance. Appreciate whats given and move on, be sure that money left on the table holds NO regrets.
Prep rep the night before and Globex Data on the open is a must - Today i had No Data on the open and was somewhat blind, however their were clues that pointed short, ie. the $TICK printed Exhaustion on the opening 1 minute bars in the overbought rang of +800
When we have NO News days be patient on the open - This is especially important when their is NO NEWS. Its best to wait for Extremes to happen then wait for Block bars or Pro bars to setup.
