2. Date/Time: 12/2-2021 8:353. Symbol/TF: GER30/ M1

4. Signal Type / Direction :  Pullback cherry

5. Questions Before Trade is Taken:
a) How do I feel before setting the order? determined
b) Intuitive Signal? I have seen the strong rejection from the H1 level so i did not take the 1st pullback right after the LO. But then it broke the level and the pullback bounched against the same level so i placed a po under the cherry. 
Because of the bounce against the level, it gave me more confident in the setup.
c) Is this technically The Setup ? It is a 3 (i counted the first one as a pullback candle as well)  candle pullback after a breakout from a consolidation so yes. And the m5 gator was open and there was red consecutive candels.

6. Post Trade Questions: 
a) How Do I feel after closing the trade? GREAT!
b) Have I done well and why? I took the setup and i followed my plan.
c) Have done badly and Why?
d) What Could I have done differently? no, i think that i looked at the situation objectivly.

Iam really enjoying this new part of my journey.
I have worked hard during stage 1, and i am still working hard but it feel like trading the pullbacks is a GREAT reward from getting through step 1.

5. Questions Before Trade is Taken:
a) How do I feel before setting the order?  i feel that it is a good and valid signal. I feel certain about the setup. Not that is is going down, but that it is my signal. The outcome is random.

4. Signal Type / Direction :  Pullback cherry short

5. Questions Before Trade is Taken:
a) How do I feel before setting the order?  I felt that i have to take the pullback when the momentum is strong. This is my signal.
b) Intuitive Signal? I had a neutral feeling.
c) Is this technically The Setup ? yes, the conditions are what i want them to be.
M5 clearly is going down, m1 in a pullback. Could not be more clear than this.
The concern i had is that there are levels to the left, due to H1 is in a sideways range. But whit the LO-momentum i was thinking that this is the trade to take, with clear momentum and direction.

6. Post Trade Questions: 
a) How Do I feel after closing the trade? GREAT!!
b) Have I done well and why? yes, i traded my plan and did not hesitate. I did not touch it after the order was in. I am soooo disciplined.
c) Have done badly and Why? no
d) What Could I have done differently? in this stage, nothing. BUT When the bottom of the box was rejected again i could have got out with some profits.

 Today i had a feeling that it will break out to the downside. it didnt.

It broke out to the upside and i waited for a pullback, but ther wasnt any. And there looked like there was some strong rejections from the upside.

 Line 1 I saw a ABC-huntseed, but with the rejection it wasnt a very stron signal for me (not my plan either so wouldnt have taken it even if it was good)

I am waiting for a proper pullback or a S1, wont happen now, its inside the premarket range again.Line 2 PERFECT but in the wrong place….. so i filtered it.


Feel like that was a good descicion. It was in the middle of everything. so I assessed this as a non-edge pullback.
 After that it stayed inside the range so i stayed out.

5. Questions Before Trade is Taken:
a) How do I feel before setting the order?  A little worried.
b) Intuitive Signal? My intuition just screemed SELL.  
c) Is this technically The Setup ? On M1, PERFECT. Exactly what i want to see. On m5 howewer… there was momentum, there were clear direction at the moment. My concern was the levels, but it had cleared the most recent level, and had room to move.
It was a calculated risk.

A Textbook Pullback / Hunt 2.0 Cherry Setup!!!!
 

 

thank u for the validation

[eaxh]

i want to be able to go and look back on my journey and i want to be so transparent as i can. for myself and for other beginners out there. 
Everuthing is possible if you put in the hard work.

This is my resault this year. To this date i have been as least 80 % disciplined and been trading aims system.
Mostly dax(s1´s and some pullbacks)  but also some S1´s on forex m1. 

I am so un-Swedishly proud and happy. I'm going to keep working hard, but I'll be honest and say it feels easier now.
Now the real challenge begins, JUST TO KEEP GOING. Make T20 step 2 and then increase my capital.

I have a question...



I am so focused on m5, where it is in the wave. For trading S1 on m1 that´s crucial of course. 
But when trading pullbacks on m1(S1´s on s12), do i need to put that in mind, or just go with direction and momentum there and then. 
And ofcourse, have the levels on m5 in mind. 

Because when m5 retraces deep, the m1 pullbacks could be really good. or is that just playing with no edge?
Or is it okay to do so when i see a complete wavesequence on m5 and a reversal is more likely to happen. 

This is something i still struggle with.
