Mark Prior Day and Premarket Levels Before Trading
Most traders enter without marking key levels first. That’s why they get chopped. Previous day high and previous day low show where liquidity sits. Premarket high and low give you early session direction. These levels act as support, resistance, and reversal zones. If you’re not using them, you’re trading blind. Mark your levels first. Then wait for confirmation.
