Ugh!! I feel ya... I had a stretch two years ago (trading things like the ES) where I deemed myself the "One Tick Away Master." I was getting stopped by 1 tick, or missed targets by 1 tick, or missed great entries by 1 tick. I somehow refrained from punching my monitors...

Gee... That worked well.... Not surprised one bit.

This video HAS to be a joke... flabbergasted!

Paul Ryan / Bernanke discussion first highlight of my day. Wow... I need to get out more! :) It's funny, but when I was loading up on my portfolios last spring... It seemed there were constant market top calls then too!

Definitely have been on the bull train. Still holding positions bought from last spring. Free money indeed!

Sitting here day after day watching the indexes push and grind through technical level after technical level makes me wonder what could happen after QE2 if there is no QE3+. I certainly haven't had the guts to call any tops... especially when the FED's have admitted they want to push the...

Government $12B profit ... will soon translate to.... $12B+ in brand NEW government wasteful spending!! Oh joy! More "free" goodies for the sheeple!

So true. I've learned through experience that when I get that feeling of, "Uncle uncle!!! I give up!! Okay I'll buy!!" That's when I should step back and wait.

We can't even get a mild pullpack for entry points. It's absurd.

+1!

For a few seconds, I literally thought maybe a nuclear bomb hit Tel Aviv! Whew! Only a fat finger.... (if true)

"Also, for those who are against the government creating jobs" When did Cramer become such a TITANIC MORON!!! I can't believe I used to actually like the guy. Newsflash: Yo Cramer!... other than actual "government" jobs (which are paid from money taken out of the private sector) It's the...

It's staggering how pissed off I am right now. These are the people my fellow citizen elected? Seriously! I suffered WAY too long learning how to be a successful trader to have it stripped away from me with this stupid ass trader tax law imposed by these stupid ass "leaders" we have. Worst...

In the same breath he says we need "jobs jobs jobs" while also advocating higher taxes. He's an idiot now.... straight up.

And to think I actually used to like him. He's wrong!

I hear ya man. At the 5 year mark I felt about the same as you. Now at the 9 year mark, I'm glad I stuck with it. The agony was all worth it in the end. Just some food for thought :)

Agreed. Started using it in 05'. Not the quickest learning curve, but if your proficient with Excel, you become proficient with AB.

The ES was like drying paint. Had to move to NQ. Did catch the small up move.

Yes. Thank you! I find this discussion quite intriguing because it looks like we both subscribe to a very similar philosophy. I am curious as to how you handle the 4hr SR lines (I use them too.) Do you prefer to play those tight as well? Or do you mainly focus on the 1hr lines, and use the...

Hello ESResistance, Great thread :) I read through quite a bit of this thread but may have missed this question... Do you ever take into account angle trendlines as S&R? If so, do you still use the 1hr+ charts. Or do you stick to only the horizontal lines. Thanks!
