Hi guys, wanted to check if a body of the pullback goes beyond the tail of the BO point bar, but the bodies does not overlap, is it still considered a negative gap?
On a separate unrelated topic, could you guys share how you are journaling your trades? I have been journaling my trades and try to be as detailed as I can but sometimes I do not now know if I am over doing it, if that makes sense? I tend to get carried away with my journaling once in a while and realise that it is effecting my concentration during trading hours, which is why I thought of checking what do you guys think is worth noting down from your experience?
At the moment, I have an Excel spreadsheet, where I journal my entries and exits. In it, I include the reasons I took the trade like DB, H1/H2, wedge etc, the context, stop loss, profit target, actual risk, initial risk and reasons I close the trade. I also have a Notion page, where I include my notes on my thoughts, my end of day practice (the one Al shared in the bonus videos for practice), bar to bar replay, trades I missed. And at the end of the week, I sort of combine the notes from these 2 in a weekly reflection.
Any thoughts/feedback/advice on the negative gap and my journaling are welcome. Thank you in advance
Hello dear
Yes, that's exactly Negative Gap (Gap Bar)
If you check the line chart version, it's the actual gap.
visual journal is recommended for you, windows (windows+prt sc)
create folders and store the screenshots in that and review them every weekend
