Today's Guidance

Mark the Asian session high and low on EUR/JPY. Enter only after a candle on the 1-hour chart confirms how price behaves at either point.

Today's guidance illustration

Alternative scenario

If

A candle on the 1-hour chart closes beyond the London session high or low after German CPI at 13:00 UK.

Then

Stop trading between the London high and low; wait for price to revisit the crossed boundary and move away before entering.

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

Today's Trading Checklist

Run through every step below before placing a trade today.

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

    Use Daily and 4-hour charts for context, then use 1-hour candle closes for entry decisions.

  2. Step 02Plan closed

    Do not count multiple entries around one EUR release as independent risk.

  3. Step 03Plan closed

    Record whether London holds or repeatedly crosses the Asian session boundaries.

Use this checklist to guide today’s trading session.

Tip: Copy this checklist into today’s Workspace and tick items off as you trade.
