Daily Journal


I think I'm trading a little too much.  
I'm taking a lot of trades right at market open, which doesn't leave me much to base my entries off of other that premarket levels/bars.  The time is just convenient for me so I'm trading it.  It would be better wait a little to let an established support level or breakout reveal itself.

FAQ

Trading at market open can be risky due to high volatility and lack of established price levels, which may lead to impulsive decisions.

Premarket levels refer to the price points and trading activity that occur before the official market opens, providing insights into potential market movements.

To improve your trading strategy, consider waiting for established support or resistance levels to form before entering trades, which can lead to more informed decisions.

Waiting to trade allows you to analyze market conditions better, identify trends, and make more strategic decisions based on confirmed price action.

Before entering a trade, look for clear support or resistance levels, breakout patterns, and overall market trends to enhance your chances of success.
