Not sure I'd get too greedy on the long side today, though? My crystal ball says the chance of closing above 3692 are slim.

Nailed it so far. :cool:

FBO to the upside. NQ reversed off Open...

Break above 72 to confirm.

We have an FBO at the LOD here if we're breaking higher now. Good long set-up. NQ divergence is also helping the long side here. Stalking a long now, but not convinced quite yet.

Higher time frames are saying SHORT, to me. Could get a big reversal candle, but that's bottom picking right now, IMO. I'm short again from 68 with a tight leash.

Someone wants a headline now. Someone wants to avoid it. I.e., June Lows breached... :) Could get some whipping back and forth here before either side relents.

They got me for 1 point profit. Might seriously have to consider that scalping approach. I've had two trades stop me out for smaller profits that were in the + 10 point range unrealized today. Let's see if this can get legs. NQ showing some positive divergence today.

Initial FBO. Will stop for a point profit here if this reverses and go long. Missed target by 2 ticks and got greedy. Will trail aggresively if we get another leg lower.

Some bidding here, but no biggie. Haven't the dip buyers learned? :) I'm a late short here at 67 targeting 10 points. Tight leash.

Slow motion crash. An Inside Day could happen, but most likely we'll take a shot at Friday's low now. Curious if we'll find a bid there or not. Might get the June Lows as soon as today.

Same recipe as last week. Looking for a rejection / confirmation of last week's range and paying some attention to those open gaps if we trade higher. Could be we'll see some consolidation before the next leg lower (which I think is coming). Would be odd if we bottom out here and don't take...

Thanks, @tiddlywinks. Very helpful. I'm used to book-keeping by calendar date, but I now understand the nuances here thanks to you. I'm done with my book-keeping now. As this isn't tracked electronically/automatically, I copy gross results per each trading day automatically from Ninjatrader...

So, you would agree that for book-keeping purposes the correct way is to use the daily statements as your daily P&L even if that spans between two calendar days? I only wish Ninjatrader could accomodate that, but I'll manage.

It seems like when book-keeping according to this standard, I had two losing days this week while with the normal calendar day book-keeping I had only one losing day.

That's very helpful, tiddlywinks! Thank you. I figured something like that could be the explanation. So, I'll have to sort out the trades from Ninjatrader to match what's contained for each day (date) in my statements. A bit of a hazzle, but I'll manage. I usually trade only RTH, but have...

Seasonality played out well this week, @TrAndy2022 Did you trade it?

Chart posted last Sunday: This week was textbook TA:

Doing some book-keeping this weekend I notice that there's a discrepancy between my daily trade report in Ninja and my daily statements. Basically, I see that two of my daily statements have trades ranging from two days. For example, my daily statement from Thursday is showing trades from both...

You’re always bullish, though. And were kind of dismissive to those in this thread who called BS on the prior rally. The great reversal in 2020 was fueled by unprecedented money printing and even helicopter money as US citizens received a check in their mailbox. That is not happening this...
