    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Increasingly risky to go long here - so staying flat for now. The last few days of June tend to be bullish, though. So, not the best trading market right now. Some volatility or a pullback would be nice.

    Tomorrow might be a tricky one, too, if we open near the highs. The best would be if we open gap down for sure.

    Monday and Tuesday was great. These last two days and today in particular is not really the best market for day trading. Meanwhile, NQ is offering great intraday moves still.

    Quantower versus Ninja Trader

    Interesting. MotiveWave does look like a good platform. Do you use any tick/volume charts at all or just minute charts? Indicators? Ninjatrader have been some said to be a 'resource hog'. I believe 25-30% CPU usage would be correct for NT8, too. It also consumes a bit of memory, although I...

    NQ....Inverse Head & Shoulder Pattern

    With ES barely moving in RTH today - NQ have meanwhile offered some really nice moves. It sure seems like a better market for some faster scalps. Both ES/NQ appear to be consolidating after a strong week so far and fresh ATHs on NQ both yesterday and today.

    Dip buyers lurking. Must have been my one MES. :)

    The bull is still in effect, IMO, but that doesn't rule out sizeable pullbacks inbetween.

    Tricky day. Either a deeper pullback to 4225/4220 or we have the LOD already and will range a while before the next leg up.

    Update. Buy the f''king dip is still in vogue and history does seem to repeat itself. :)

    The market appears to have lost momentum after a so far very strong week with 2 consecutive trend days. Would be nice with a 4250 print before pulling back, though. Yes?

    Near vertical rise. Seems like history keeps repeating itself, though. There are many who will be bag holders as euphoria once again peaks. Rinse. Repeat. Most seem to get it wrong and buy when they should sell and sell when they should buy.

    That's interesting as I'm on a really good streak now. I think it's the 10th day in a row making $$$ today. Some changes I've been doing: 1. I scale into a position. Preferrably, I'll add to a winner, but as long as it's not done recklessly, I'll add on falling prices on a long, too. The key...

    Not a seller in sight so far.

    I was thinking ATHs later this week. On the other hand - ATHs today could be done with less than 1 % daily change, so wouldn't really be a biggy. I suppose the key is to see if we can clear the 4220 level and unlock some buying there.

    Yeah. Yesterday was easier. I use wider stops these days. If not - I would have taken a few pops at the Open. Actually, I did anyway.

    Seems like a nervous market. Nobody wants to show their hands. :) I'm anticipating a 4221/4222 print from here. Not sure what more. Yesterday was a big day up. So might not get that much more today. Let's see.

    Pops are being sold far, but I still view this as a consolidation/pullback, so I don't think I have the conviction to short this. Range bound.

    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Failure @ 14/16 on the Open sets up a pullback into yesterday's range, IMO. 4200/4190. If 14/16 holds - might see another trend day up. Regardless, it seems like the weekly bull template is in play, so I would assume any weakness today or tomorrow would be bought until we're back up to ATHs.

    Missed the LOD by 2 ticks. :banghead: Friday's high done. Next up is 4194 and if it's a major short squeeze we'll see 4210 by the Close. But, we could range here, too, with a deep pullback. So the rest of the day is uncertain. I'm flat and done.

    If higher on the day - would assume 4190/4200. But I suppose that's all contigent on NQ finding a bid.
