Nice Trade!

Is it possible to pair bookmap with topstep? I didnt know

Hey! I also trade NQ and use a similar approach with VWAP and AVWAP. Your 20 tick stop loss and 40 tick TP seem reasonable, especially when factoring in ATR. I tend to adjust based on volatility as well, but I use 1-minute bars for my ATR rather than 5 seconds, since it helps smooth out noise during high volatility. Depending on the session (e.g., US open vs. slower parts of the day), I might stretch my stop loss to 30 ticks or tighten it to 15 if the market is consolidating. I’ve also found value in using market profile levels in conjunction with VWAP/AVWAP to add another layer of confluence for my entries and exits. Are you backtesting any specific time periods or market conditions?

You're definitely on the right path with the NY session VWAP and AVWAP from high/low of the day and key news events—those are crucial levels. I’ve also found success anchoring VWAP to major intraday levels like the opening price, swing highs/lows, and volume nodes from the heatmap. Sometimes, I’ll anchor to the start of significant moves or big reversals, especially when there's a clear shift in momentum. Pre-market sessions can also offer useful anchor points if there's strong movement. Have you tried anchoring to key volume clusters or order flow zones?
