The LOD broke and then some. Let's see if this bottoms out in this area (4145) or if it sells off. If it sells of it will probably be without me. So far repeating the pattern from last month. Big run up pre-market and a sell in RTH. Quoted for truth. It's so easy to believe otherwise...

Trend day definitely possible here. Simply watching for the LOD (61.50) to hold from here. First target would be 4185. Shorts must be exhausted and terrified by now.

My God, this is actually painful to watch sitting on the sidelines. Fortunately, not as painful as for those who are short. It's tempting to do something stupid, but these parabolic moves usually retraces. Unless something changed today. And from the look of that CPI number that clearly isn't...

Damn! Maybe I should have chased. Look at this. I actually considered it with a tight stop, but was too late. Just waiting for the next PB, now.

Definitely possible. We sold off last month in the RTH session following a gap up. I'm certainly not chasing a long up here, but if we get a nice PB, I think I'll be leaning long. Waiting for the dust to settle... :)

Now, we pray for a pullback. And weep for the shorts.

Anyone holding a position into this? It's tempting with a long, but I'm going to stay flat.

Looked promising there for a minute. Flat at 29.75 for a 3 point loss. Just waiting for the fireworks now. Tempting to enter a long here, but I won't.

Should be interesting to see the reaction to today's report. Last month spiked strongly on the report and sold off afterwards. Maybe Schizo and Master Pu both gets it right today. I'm short from a bad spot (26.75), so will have to close it out pre-release for a 4 or 5 point loss if we don't...

Welcome! :) I'm marginally profitable. Up around 200% on my piker account which I started day trading in March. High risk profile, so we'll see how it goes. About 80 % winning days as of now with a few nasty down days where I've given back a bit too much. Fortunately, I've had a few big...

Broke the range low. Looks like @schizo may get this one. I suppose everything could change in an instant on that CPI release. EDIT: And snapped right back up. Never easy to be a late short on ES/NQ.

And that's what makes a market... :) I can see both of you getting it right, today. ;) The worst outcome would be if you both don't and we'll continue in this tight range. Hard to imagine that'll happen, though. It's been a few years since the last time we had a < 25.00 point RTH weekly...

Took a few stops pre-market and finally a stop out on a long at 33.25 on three contracts while out on a seminar. A net loss today. At a 14.25 point range this is the smallest range by far this year. I hope this decrease in volatility is temporary and not the norm for the summer months ahead...

Rejected a third time. Let's see if it's just more consolidation and range bound movement before making another thrust higher. Tricky. Weak long bias for now as long as the LOD holds, but this development is obviously not quite ideal for the long side. If the LOD breaks I suspect that...

Late comment as I had to log in, but odds say back in yesterday's range. I want my 4150, but may not take out yesterday's high today. Like Master Pu I suspect we can see another range bound session. A rejection of yesterday's range low here could potentially trigger a move lower. The first...

An FBO of the current LOD. Hanging on at the edge of the cliff, so it's a weak dip for now. I'm thinking 4150 from here, but I don't see any reason to be over confident on the long side, though.

Nice collection, but I gave up after the initial 5 quotes. I was expecting one favorite quote. :)

Back in long at 36.25. Stop once again B/E. Happy to take it off for 10 points if I can get it as I'm suspecting limiting upside for today. That 4150 number is proving thick to go through. Need a good bid on the Open to prove otherwise. IMHO, of course. EDIT: And stopped B/E while taking...

Stopped out B/E here as I may be too early and even completely wrong. Will re-enter on a successful test of the current LOD or at lower prices.

Got some initial weakness as anticipated, but shorting is never this easy, so I bought this dip at 37 with a 2 point stop. I may be early here, so will probably take a new long if stopped. Opening gap down on RTH I will most likely lean long for a move back inside yesterday's range, but...
