Market reversed into a range

btw; the market reversing into the range was after my first trade not so?
there was a push up after London open with the big candles too

During your first trade it was transitioning. I may have took your first trade. Hard to say for sure without watching live.

Thx.
I also had some reservations taking the first trade because of how price was moving and it was the 5th candle after the high was made; usually it's a bit closer. For sure I will not take the second trade again if I run into the same situation.
Missed the NY session. There were some nice trades Could have make it up.

Oooo...this is terrible. I was waiting for a setup and got a bit distracted. I already was a candle late but most important I forgot that there was a huge FVG. So when price stalled at the thin red line (SD) I closed my position for a +1R.

Price had reached the daily ADR but wasn't really moving down.
If it's not going down...it must be going up.
Switched to the m1...setup was clear....entered and thought let's aim for 3R right at a Z-line and....whoooosh....tp reached in 5 seconds or so. Luck also feels good.

Too bad I was on the phone afterwards because I could/would have done it a 2nd time.

4R today is good. Was going to ask how many R you made this week, but there is 1 more day to go.

So far I have +5.5R.
Mon: -1.5R
Tue: +5R
Wed: -3R
Thu: +5R
Could I have made more?...sure...but I could also have less.

I can see I need to be more patient with my trades...the winners will reach more and the losers might become winners.
