The Judas Swing strategy is all about discipline, patience, and trusting the process, and this 
EURUSD setup from Monday’s session was a perfect reminder of why sticking to the rules matters more than chasing results.
As the Judas Swing session started,EURUSD gave us the first clue we look for: a liquidity sweep above the zones high. Breakout buyers jumped in, only to find themselves trapped as price quickly reversed. This was our signal to get ready. But, as always, one signal isn’t enough. We needed the next confirmation: a break of structure to the downside. Once that shift in order flow printed, the setup was officially on our radar.
Next came the waiting game. The strategy demands patience until price retraces back into a Fair Value Gap (FVG) created on the price leg that broke structure. It didn’t take longEURUSD pulled back neatly, tapped into the FVG, and our entry candle closed. That was the green light.
Risk per trade: 1%
Target: 2%
Risk-to-Reward: 1:2
Checklist complete. Trade executed.
Unlike some trades where price rockets instantly, this one tested our patience.EURUSD moved in our favor but reversed and even pulled against us. Momentum returned, but instead of pushing toward our 2% target, price lost steam mid-way and reversed. The result: a 1% loss
The important lesson here is that a losing trade executed according to plan is still a successful trade. We didn’t chase the liquidity sweep. We didn’t anticipate the break of structure. We didn’t force an early entry. Every box was ticked, and the trade simply didn’t play out. That’s trading. The Judas Swing isn’t about winning every setup, it’s about trusting the process over the long run. By managing risk and staying consistent, we position ourselves for sustainable growth, even when individual trades don’t hit target.
