Trade Review
Thanks for your detailed trade journal and charts for Friday, February 6, 2026. Here's your full trade review and graded breakdown based on your transcript and setup: 🧾 Trade Review – Friday, February 6, 2026 You took two trades on NQ (MNQ), skipping ES due to lack of setup confirmation. The structure was valid and aligned across all three assets, with VIX supporting a risk-on move after gapping up and selling off hard. Despite whip-heavy volatility and news releases at 10am, you managed your entries well and avoided unnecessary drawdowns. Your stops were tight, your lot sizes conservative, and your trade logic clean. 🧠 Setup Thesis Bias: Bullish continuation from overnight rally Triggers:
- ▸Price traded into 1H bullish FVG on NQ at NYO
- ▸Liquidity sweep + OB/FVG confluence (24,711 zone)
- ▸VIX gapped up → filled and sold off hard
- ▸Price took out short-term highs (2x HTF + 1 STF) before reversing Key Chart Zones:
- ▸Entry 1 (scratched): ~24,819.25
- ▸Entry 2: 24,778.50
- ▸SL: 24,700.50
- ▸TP: Initial at 24,984, potential extension to 442 points You moved your SL to BE after being up ~100+ points, only to get wicked out before the move ran over 400+ points in your direction.
