Notes:
When I got to the chart, the market was already in a strong selloff — a huge rally down. These kinds of days are tricky. When price pulled back to the EMA, I entered short, looking for another leg down. It worked nicely for 1R.
A second pullback to the EMA followed, but I hesitated since we had already seen two clear legs down. Right after that, the market took a steep nose dive — almost another 49 points. After that push, we got a 2nd Entry Sell at the EMA, which also lined up with a breakout-pullback (BOPB) from the range measured move. I took that trade for 2R.
Later, the market started to reverse up, but I wasn’t eager to buy into that move given how strong the downtrend had been. Overall, a solid day — volatile but well-structured.
Biggest Lesson:
Biggest Lesson
Strong trends can offer clean entries, but they’re also easy to overtrade. Trust the legs, take the setups, and don’t chase late reversals just because the move looks extended.
