    What's the hint?

    ES Journal - 2023/2024

    No worries. I did not post a timely forecast today as I some days to, so I get that it could sound confusing. Off the RTH Open I was strictly looking long targeting minimum 4115, but likely to be 4120. After that initial thrust higher with 4115 out of the way, I was however not convinced we'd...

    That's kind of rude.

    ES Journal - 2023/2024

    What made you assume I went against the tide? I just checked the market on my cell phone and was baffled by the strength of this rally. I posted early this morning that I would be expecting 4120 today. I made three trades this morning. One long off the Open. One short trade that I scratched B/E...

    ES Journal - 2023/2024

    I don't think this move north changes much and I still think we have a good chance of making new lows by end of week, but that's all only an attempt at an educated guess. But seeing what most people post online that's what everyone seems to be doing. Guessing. :) Too much uncertainty in the...

    Stopped out at 4118. Trailing stop. 4120 was the number I had in mind today. No need to be greedy in this crazy market. :)

    Reverersed long instead. Was there news? That's quite the move on some volume.

    Wise choice to scratch it. With this breakout I would assume 4120 in play after all, then.

    Okay. Shorted 4107.50 with my live account. 2 point stop. Will break it even rather quickly, but hold for a bigger move if not stopped. EDIT: Scratched it B/E, but may re-enter short later. NQ strength is an argument against the short side here, but that could quickly reverse.

    Took that short off the HOD on the simulator. I'm shell shocked from shorting in the past, so I often don't take those short signals with real money, unless I have really strong odds for a move lower. Maybe with practice I can take them with real money as well. :) If we take out the LOD I'm...

    That's a short signal off the HOD, so this might be it for today. I don't think we're done below, yet, but it's possible that will have to wait until tomorrow. Dangerous environment. I may easily be wrong. :)

    Struggling a bit up here, but I'd say we hit around 4120 intraday and wouldn't think we get much more than that. Remains to be seen if we head south again from there. If not already today.

    No spike above 4100 as I would assume the bulls were hoping for. Let's see if this can get legs lower again or not. Spikey and indecisive so far.

    Seeing that the whales didn't sell 4100 so far, I'm wondering if today could see some continuation higher. Maybe 4120. Could change in an instant, though. But even within the bearish scenario moving forward there's usually some consolidation and up days in between, so today could be a breather.

    Got your 4100, buddy. NQ looking pretty bullish leading the way with a print above yesterday's high. Would be odd if we don't see some retracement from here or in the RTH session later today, IMO, but what do I know... :) I'm curious on the impact of GDP and those other numbers coming up in...

    NQ futures increased volatility after stocks close

    Wicked moves on that NQ beast. ES is wild enough for me these days. :)

    Bounced off SPX 4050. Apparently that was enough for one day... :) Hard to say, but I would guess we see the week low tomorrow OR Friday taking care of that last gap below in immediate vicinity. That's 58.75 on ES / 4027 on SPX. Next open gap below would be 4001.25 on ES and 3971 on SPX. I...

    Might be too early. Open gap at 58.75 on ES. SPX just filled gap at 4050. Next below is 4027 on SPX.

    Complacency in trading.

    Since you insist, I'd call you crazy, then. :) But clearly it's your thing. I like to workout or exercise instead, I think. Very important.
