Walt, NP I don't plan on posting a PNL because I never look at it. It goes back to the old SOES trading days...98-2003...w couldn't take the PNL off the monitors the first few years. We wound up trading in defensive mode and it became a nightmare. There was over 100 guys in the office and it...

so that's waht happens in the ES...lol.. not the 1st and won't be the last. Took a short at 1100...-2 pts. I realized the DT at 03 but it is too far away for me to place my stop a few tics above there. I re shorted 1102.5 and +1pt and +6 tics on the balance. the previous structure I saw...

+1 on 1/2 position and -2 on the balance

ES.........L 1100.25 this is a tough area for me as price distributions is pretty even form 98-1102 area so I will take a +1 if given the chance & be tight with the stops....as usual. If it breaks up I wil have a good shot to see the HOD or close to it but thats not up to me

any clues?

so far we have a consolidation day but it's outside yest range...which is interesting. Are they setting up for a big PM move to position themselves for NFP tomorrow?? They love nothing more than to jerk off the public:confused:

I covered the bal of pos at 98.5...+3 and just in front of yest hi. I think I covered another short in the same spot earlier. hmmmmm....I wonder why that happened?

well...this kinda sux. short ES from 01.5 ....got 1 point and held my 2 pt initial stop because of the 02.5 hi vol area. I was also on the phone and it made it a bit easier to hold and not get jiggled out at BE when I had the chance. just covered more at 99.5 for +2 as I am writing this. Will...
