My nq price action method

I do not have time tonight to go over every trade but I marked them and hopefully tomorrow I will have more time. The green circles are where I would enter with the red dashed lines as my stop .
 
Todays 500 tick chart and trades.
1.higher low long at 3768.50 stop 3766 breach of up move trend line and target of3772 last swing high.
2.lower high short at 3779.50 stop 3781.75 target support area 3772.
3.long above support at 3773.75 stop 3770 target 3781 last swing high

I understand life has obligations.., or even at times..., we just don't feel like it


That said.., treat this just as you must treat trading

Half engaged / not feeling it / not able to focus 100% / other things on your mind / other obligations

Then…, simply don’t


You’ll be wasting our time.., our effort…, and…, instilling bad habits (which takes 2X to 4X the effort to break)

Nice trade…, but – no real reason (supporting PA) to exit @ 3772 was there - when a position is making money - let it

Good trade – the stop line (dashed line) is way too low – but the stop price is good



Overall

Context is solid / trades are solid

Beyond any shadow of a doubt - I know you are

I didn't have the time plain and simple.between commute and work was 13 hours softball practice 2 hours and an hour for exercise

Right - life (there is more than just trading)

I'm simply trying to emphasis - practice like you play (or trade) - 100% when you do

====================

Stated another way...,

I don't want you thinking / feeling - anything is expected

We take this at your pace

But..., when we do anything trading related - we do it completely..., and consistently - every time


And if other things are going on - then handle them - and don't give trading another thought - till it appropriate

It's hard to have a clear head when things are in a whirl - and we need our head on straight - otherwise the mkt will hand it to us on a platter

=============

Besides... and if you haven't figured it out already;

I can be one anal bitch when it comes to trading



No half hearted squats/ curls / reps - and no half hearted trade plans :)
