    histo on 1 min made a higher 2nd trough, there was a little bit of a divergence, though I don't necesserily need it to diverge, a 2nd higher trough in histo confirmed, to me, to go long at that time.

    TY for encouraging words Apex, it always helps to go away and come back to review EOD chart with a clear mindset, which I have done and realised that there were some errors on my part as well as other things.

    Does a trader want this volatility?

    Today I traded like a total piker, I am not going to blame increased volatility, though must admit that the spikier the price action becomes the more difficult it is to stay with a trade. What didn't happen today, crikey that is a good question that I have asked myself when reviewing today's...

    Had to close -8, basically given back previous trade's gains, today was unbelievably frustrating for me, it's either me who was on the wrong side of the fence or set-ups that I use kept being faded. I will review today's chart tomorrow morning to see whether I screwed it up. Nicely traded...

    That explains it, I just had a look at NQ. I must admit I don't trade it, but I should have at least looked at it, it had such a classic bearish divergence on 1 min chart from 9.40-10.30, oh man! I really suck today, Jeez!
