Field notes
Volume nodes after a quiet Asia session
Overnight pockets leave footprints. We teach students to skim them before inventing a daytime story.
Morning briefing drills begin with a skim of overnight volume pockets on the symbols a student actually follows. A quiet Asia session that still left a dense node near prior value often matters more than a dramatic overnight wick with little size behind it.
We are not forecasting the London or New York open. We are listing places where hands already agreed, so daytime momentum readings have somewhere to stand. Students who skip this skim tend to treat every morning thrust as new information. It rarely is.
