Today's Guidance

Mark the Asian session high and low. Enter only when a candle on the 1-hour chart closes beyond either price or closes back between them after a touch.

Today's guidance illustration

Alternative scenario

If

After the 15:00 UK USD releases, a candle on the 1-hour chart closes beyond the Asian session high or low. Price stays beyond that boundary.

Then

Stop trading between the Asian session high and low. Use the crossed boundary only when price returns to it and moves away again.

Guidance — not a prediction. Today's plan may need to be reassessed if this trigger materialises.

Today's Trading Checklist

Statuses update automatically as today's plan and trading windows progress. They show when each point is most relevant — you still confirm the trading conditions on the chart.

  1. Step 01Plan closed

    Remove pending orders before the four marked high-risk periods.

  2. Step 02Plan closed

    Treat forecasts as context, never as entry signals.

  3. Step 03Plan closed

    Record whether each EUR/USD news move holds for a full 1-hour candle.

Use this checklist to guide today’s trading session.
