+3200$ Trading NQ... This ONE Trade Saved My Week | May 8 Recap
May 8 recap.
After taking 2 losses earlier this week and being down -1.7R overall…
Friday finally delivered.
+3.29R on NQ
Enough to bring the week back green at roughly +2R total 👊
Setup (JD Model):
Bullish trend
Bias higher
Draw on liquidity above
1-minute execution entry
Market Conditions:
Very fast and efficient
Almost moving too quickly at times, but direction was clean once it expanded
Execution:
Took the long on NQ once everything aligned
Held through the expansion cleanly
This is why discipline matters.
A lot of traders spiral after 2 red days.
Instead of forcing trades, I stayed patient and waited for the market to finally give clarity.
Lesson:
One trade can completely change a week
You just need to survive long enough to catch it
