    Two big sto divergences on the daily on last two highs. Would't be surprised to see a retrace to low 2700s or below

    the reason indicators don't work isn't because they're lagging

    There will always be time frame conflict whether seen within the context of price derivatives or simply as price action. One's plan has to decide on the time frame(s) relative to the rules of trade. As far as "oversold, overbought", by themselves they are largely meaningless as a sto can stay...

    If you could KIND OF predict turning points, could the remainder be done with money management?

    This is something which also requires a definitive context. The great majority of my entries go in my desired direction after entry, however of these trades, some will result in a gain, some will come back and scratch me out and some will come back and result in a loss. Trade management is key.

    Need advice on exits

    Yep, Used to trade with a woman named Victoria Pearson (was an associate of Raschke) who used to say "support/resistance is meant to be broken." A trend by definition will break prior S/R levels or it wouldn't BE a trend.

    Need advice on exits

    There are numerous ways you can trail a stop and lock in profit as price goes your way, pivots, ma crosses, parabolic SAR and many others. But as Overnight noted, neither you nor I nor anyone will get every bit of every move. If I were you, I wouldn't take another trade until I had an exit...
