Know Your Futures Ep. 2 | Entry Mastery

Your analysis can be right and your entry can still ruin the trade. Irina walks through her four-step entry process: check the fundamentals, find the location on the chart, wait for the trigger, and size the position from the stop.

Even when your direction is right, a bad entry can spoil the whole trade. In Episode 2 of Futures Unlocked, Irina Pchelintceva shares the entry process she built for herself and shows you how to build your own A+ setup.

In this episode:
• Irina’s story: from business and venture capital to full-time futures trading
• The most common entry mistakes: chasing, no confirmation, jumping in before the candle closes, and sizing on gut feel
• What to check for each market before you open a chart: indexes, metals and energy
• Where high-probability setups live: supply and demand zones, equal highs and lows, and RSI divergence
• Entry triggers: liquidity grabs, engulfing candles, breaks of structure, and confirmation with the 9 EMA and VWAP
• Position sizing from your stop, worked through for micro index, micro gold and crude oil contracts
• A live crude oil trade breakdown
