Back to the Futures with OrderFlow Labs: Ep. 4, Building a Plan ft. Leo
In the fourth installment of our limited series with OrderFlow Labs, Leo is in the shop to talk about putting all the pieces together into an actionable plan. Listen along as we discuss Leo's process, from his daily routine to some of the setups he trades (and some he doesn't trade), and how important it is to understand our own psychology when developing our own plan. It's been a long journey, but after this month's homework assignment, we should have an actionable trading plan!
For those of you trading with MotiveWave (along with Sierra Charts and Ninja Trader), OFL's toolkit is now available on your platform!
If you have a question to submit for next month's episode, email it to 2bulls@financialineptitude.com or post it in our Discord.

About Leo:
Leo started his trading journey with options mainly through options data/flow tools, after getting tired of trying to find the next mover and carrying overnight risk he then found the futures market. His focus is now mostly on ES and NQ. HIs favorite OF Labs study is the buy and sell zones because they help automate the process of finding areas where the pullback in the market gives you the best risk/reward to take the continuation trade.
