    My first post on ET in 5 years. Has the signal-to-noise ratio improved here? Thoughts?

    What are you interested in, then? My impression is that in terms of knowledge and ideas being shared the golden days of ET are behind us. Fortunately, old posts are still available in the archive and there's a lot of gold buried here. I'm sure there's some great traders lurking and even...

    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Took a scalp profit on a long from 90. Considered swinging it for a move higher, but wise from the lack of directional moves on the Open lately, I booked it. Flat and watching now. I don't have a strong edge here, so no need to risk anything. One of the things I'm trying to improve is precisely...

    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Interesting development. It turns out we broke below instead. A fairly volatile session where not much happened in the end. Another day of consolidation. I am or was and still may be bullish for the week ahead, but it's only probabilities and rarely certainties. What I do know is that it's...

    For those who doubt Bitcoin potential as a payment currency, try this

    In Scandinavia, I can use my cell phone to send money instantaneously to another person for free using my local currency. I can use the same solution to pay for bills and also to pay in an increasing number of stores. It takes about 5 minutes to set-up. Not so long ago, there was a delay of a...

    For those who doubt Bitcoin potential as a payment currency, try this

    Sounds like a lot of work for being allowed to do something you can already do with fiat currency. :)

    20 point swing complete here. 3800 is the expected first hurdle. Some slowing down here is to be expected, but should be clear for a move to 3815 now. Still feeling kind of whippy.

    Waiting for some clarity here. Two Inside Days in a row is rare. So, either a break below 3781 or above 3810,50. TICKS are firming up, though.

    NQ weakness seems to be holding us down both yesterday and today. Could still break lower here, so no certainties yet... Volatile openings lately.

    Stopped for a profit on that one. Waiting for the dust to settle, but leaning long here. I think we have the LOD. Might wait until we trade above 94 for a long.

    Filled. Let's see where the day takes us. Maybe 3815.

    Stalking a long here. Maybe 87. Maybe 82. Open gap below @ 3741.50 below, but maybe save that for later?

    Futures (ES) and NinjaTrader for non-US

    In which country are you based? I'm in Norway and use Dorman / NT Brokerage. My only complaint is the lack of an online portal where I could manage positions in the event of a failure with NT, check my account balance, etc. Executions and customer service is top notch. I've talked to a few...

    Demo account or Micro ?

    There's absolute zero reason to risk money while still 'learning' and working out your approach. This assumes you're actually demo trading seriously. Meaning you'll trade 1 contract and don't average down with 100 contracts using unrealistic leverage if you were initially wrong. Micros are...

    I'm bullish for the week ahead: Who else thinks a Correction may be coming? My top call #2 1/9/2021 I just checked my prediction model with updated data and it seems like new highs for today's session is very likely. Personally, I don't like the R/R right now and will take a pass. The right...

    I'm flat and just watching now. Have some other things to attend to and don't want to put my money at risk entering here when I can't monitor it closely, although 3810-16 is calling. Took some heat pre-market (long in the 90 zone) with a larger stop, so was just happy to call it a profitable...

    Feel welcome to chime in! The noise and gibberish here have been extremely high in the past, so I sincerely doubt you'll do worse than that. :)

    ES Journal - 2021/2022

    Where is everyone? :) The day is still young and we may see a pullback first, but the odds of a complete gap fill or at least very close by EOD are good today. Approx. 60 % for the full close. A bit more if we allow some 'leeway'. That's 3816,75 on ES. Since my weekly forecast too is...

    Who else thinks a Correction or CRASH may be coming? My top call #2 1/9/2021

    I'm not clever enough to anticipate a major drop, but my weekly forecast model pretty much guarantees fresh all time highs next week and a positive net change by week end. Usually, the week high comes late in the week on such a week. A 1-1.5 % gain takes us to 3855/3875, so I'll be expecting...
