Hello. World markets are mixed. Dow is currently a bit down in premarket. Good trading.

There was some resistance and and the 1250VBC printed a doji.

I used to "promote the trade" by entering on a 5min and watching a 15min for signs of weakness. I don't do that anymore because 15min is a bit long for me, but it might be something you could look into. Maybe execute on a 1250vbc and promote to a 5min.

Setup 3: -12. -12.

What about the 1 minute?

Maybe a 3min, a 1 minute would be too quick for a promotion from a 1250vbc
