It’s essential to show the real side of trading losses are a natural and important part of the process. Just like expenses in a business, they’re necessary and expected. In this particular GER40 trade, we took a loss, but thanks to solid risk management and consistent strategy, we still closed the week in profit. Staying focused on the bigger picture is what makes a trader successful.
PRE MARKET ANALYSIS
GER40 is currently showing bearish momentum on the 1H timeframe, and price has already tapped into the premium zone.
From here, we will wait for either:
• A bearish candle to form on the 5-minute timeframe, or
• A break of structure (BOS) to the downside on the 5M for confirmation.
We’re staying patient and following our strategy with discipline.

POST MARKET ANALYSIS
📆 Fundamental Analysis
According to today’s economic calendar, there are several high-impact news — Core PPI m/m and PPI m/m — scheduled for 1:30 PM (UTC) affecting the USD and CPI y/y at 7:00 AM (UTC) affecting GBP.
Due to the potential for increased
volatility, we will be avoiding trades on UK100 and NASDAQ focusing solely on GER40 for the day.
📊 Technical Analysis
Directional Bias: Bearish (based on 1-hour timeframe)
At the start of the session, the GER40 was in a clear bearish trend on the 1-hour timeframe. The market had already reached the premium zone and confirmed a break of structure to the downside, solidifying our bearish bias.
As the pre-London session opened, we waited for a bearish candle to confirm entry conditions, which aligned with our strategy. A short trade was executed accordingly.
Market Conditions:
• The session was marked by high volatility and less-than-ideal price action, which affected trade quality and follow-through.
