    Was a bit too early with my short... NQ just broke the uptrend since 05 dec. ES just confirmed a M-Top which should send us down to 1507. Trying to get a short at 1516

    How do you know when to stop trading for the day??

    I usually quit or reduce my trading size to 1/10 when... ...I reach my avrg. daily $-target (i.e. Let´s say avrg. winning day is 2000$, market opens with a gap and I short the whole way down with a 5:1 RRR, giving me 2000$ in only one hour) ...I am down and not able to adjust. (i.e...

    Edit Previous NQ trade closed with -1 pt. Finally we made the breakout. Selling 1/2 of the AAPL Calls with 70% profit on a new ATH for Apple. Quicker than expected...

    Finished for today. Very decent. Still long AAPL 195DEC calls which I bought right after opening. Usually I tend to lean towards the "short side" as I am bearish for the economy. BUT this setup is just pretty strong.(I am refering mainly to the NQ/NDX) 1. From 7th november we saw a...

    Long NQ +2107 Stop 03 Target 15/23 also long DEC AAPL Calls Edit DEC07 Calls Strike 195 AAPL chart looks like the mother off all uptrends. Retraced, quick consolidation+bullflag. It´s more like a position trade for the next 2 weeks, expecting 50-100% return. Expecting...

    Futures Traders- You are SO misssing out

    Seriously, I would like to know which scanning method you are using BEFORE stocks move up. Is it a scheme like: Stock A is up 10% intraday, let´s jump on it for further volatility? Just curious, seems like aftertiming to me...

    Sorry for aftertiming. Added a few NQ shorts when we broke the uptrend around 2093. Old analysis still valid, IF NQ<2080 THEN 2062 Still think there is a lot more momentum on the downside right now.

    Hello, hope everybody had a god weekend. I am a bit uninspired today, no idea what to do with ES and NQ. Maybe long NQ@89 with a target at 2100/05. Only trade for me: IF NQ<2075 then 2062 I shorted CL now@ 88.2 stop 89 Target would be 86.5 for daytrading and 85(50% retracement...

    What is the worst one day loss you ever had?

    I´ve got a pretty aggressive MM approach.. Back in my volatile days in lost nearly 9000$ or 50% of my account in one day. (Was a decent amount for a student at university lol) Can´t remember the exactly the day, was trading NQ holding a few shorts overnight when the market gapped and...

    Really? Today´s premarket action combined with the losses from the top are looking pretty bad. Confirmed flag NQ. Gives a target around 2065/60. (Wednesday opening) Everything below 1462 ES looks very bearish to me. In retroperspective, it seemed like a giant shortsqueeze...
