I guess it’s time for an update. The past week was one of my worst ever in 6+ years of trucking. It’s not that the job is getting worse, it’s just that I’m becoming less tolerant of the BS involved with it. How many times can I get cut off or jacked with before I decide to happily...

jasper....i'm sure you are taking all this with a grain of salt. I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. I've read most of your blog and it does seem like you are curve-fitting, which is what the other posters were justified in their criticism. I'm a price/vol guy so all the volatility...

It's pretty obvious tomorrow will be an expansion day. After 3 days of contraction in the same range, there's just too much money waiting for an invitation. Sure this is basic stuff and everyone knows this, but its usually good for 3-4 ES points. Here's how I play it. I'm looking for an INX...

Haven't posted in a while as my January was quite a debacle. After being up about 35%, I finished down about 20%. I have managed to get back up to breakeven for the year, albeit with way too much stress. That puts me ahead for the month, but I'm just trying to take it trade by trade and not...

Personally, I don't see how an intra-day player can just walk away, even with stops and limit orders set. Trading that short of time frame, the variables are always changing. Maybe tighten up the stop or let the runner go a little more. But I CAN see walking away between trades to clear your...

Louisville KY - Thanks for the feedback everyone. As for YRCW, I have no idea. I can tell you that my work is very slow right now and freight volumes are a strong leading indicator for general market health. Hope that helps. No trading for me today, just didn't fit in the schedule...

Harrisonburg VA - Last week was not one of my better weeks of trading. Not so coincidentally, it was also a bad week for me in the trucking world. The correlation between the two is always very high and it’s easy to see that attitude is the deciding factor. That has always been a...

to no one in paticular when you get to the end zone, at least pretend like you have been there before

Ken, in between brawling with angry truckers, my 6'4 235" frame (diet starts toworrow..lol) tries to be nice with everyone. If all those jerkoffs were decent, we could all spend our time discussing zero band stochastic bounces. I don't talk to anyone out there. I'm like Han Solo in the...

Ken, I can't tell on myself too much. I'm on my 3rd carrier and have about 800K regretful miles.....L

No offense NKHOI, but pilots would ruin this place. They are total EGO and the world revolves around them. They are good for filling YOUR orders and nothing more. Seriously...lencho.

Update 01-12 For the month so far I am up 18%. Since I risk only 2% on each trade, it looks good on paper. But my trading has been less than stellar. To put it succinctly, I sucked. Seemed liked every turn I took, the market took the other one. I started doubting myself and had to get...

too much ego involved to hear the sounds that the market is making.....gotta check the ego at the door before u start trading.....simple as that...good trading to all .....lencho

LOL....I love your diametrically opposed points of view. That means the apple falls up, right? I'm still learning and just getting 20% a month. In some leagues that would be adequate. In mine, its not....lencho

yeah...ES 2-3 point moves..i got caught today....i'm a fader

Actually it was titled, "A Moveable Feast". damn editors!

I been trading a while..check out my 'spilling my guts out' thread on the journal section....lencho
