Sierra charts it’s not complex it’s just VWAP with 2std bands mid price rotations on the bottom for the delta chart it’s a standard delta chart showing volume delta per price and number of trades. I’m mostly looking at swings
I use esignal but I only use the basic things.
perhaps one day, I will explore further your complex Sierra charts
4/16/19 mid day review
attempted to take a short at the break of the open again missing the real action due to work resulted in a decent entry i think it just didnt fall through. i got 6pt per contract MFE on it before coming back for a -1.25pt loss
I could have taken profit but for me its not worth it to place multiple trades through out the day id rather have a smaller loss and a huge win every now and then.

Another day where we tested yesterdays close area and bought up.
$NQ_F $NQ if we gap up we eventually sell off to test the close if we open unchanged we sell off im wondering when this pattern will change.

4/17/19 post review today was basically the same action as it has been all week if opened higher either sell off or go slightly higher to sell off to prev close or high. I attempted to sell the failure of but got stopped out so next i was looking to buy the previous high test and that worked...somewhat I did take more risk than i normally would have taken on a trade.
