Notes:
Once again, the day started in a trading range. The bulls managed to break out to the upside, creating what looked like a solid breakout. I took a chance on an H1 BOPB setup — it stalled for quite a while, gained a bit of momentum, then stalled again, so I took it off for a small profit. The market overall was very slow and lacked energy. After I exited, prices pulled back to the EMA, which would have offered a better entry in hindsight.
Up to this point, the price action looked very similar to Friday’s session. The range high was holding, and prices started to trend up again — first a steep leg higher, then into an extremely tight and slow trading range. It was tempting to buy the BOPB of that small range, but we were sitting so close to the range measured move that I passed. Prices stacked up just outside that tiny range, and then suddenly shot higher — a strong rally with no easy way to get in.
Biggest Lesson:
When a strong trend starts to build, it’s often too late once it’s obvious. Having a small position on in case of a breakout can be worth it. If it doesn’t run, I can exit with a small loss — but sitting out entirely on days like this can mean missing the move that defines the session.
