Trading what you think will only take you to the poor house, stick to what price is doing and ignore events or world events. If the event is truly catastrophic price will reflect it like nothing else. NAD

Target reached. +10.50 on buys below 93 +9 on 94 add Thank you A, love you man. NAD

Contemplating another add around if it happens 95.25 looking to exit everything at 1302.75 whatever happens first. NAD

Added more ES at 94. NAD

Looking to buy below 93 with a stop below 88. NAD

There is a world of difference between picking the bottom of an uptrend, retracement, and picking the top of an uptrend, therefore, I do not agree with your assessment. I believe Nexen felt comfortable selling at new highs he did not try to pick a top. However, he is now trying to pick the...

Assuming you don't add to your winning positions, don't use a trail stop unless you have reached your main target objective, when that occurs, initiate an aggressive trailing stop in case it breaks out, otherwise pay a small price by getting trailed stopped in exchange of allowing a winner to...

Rod, It will take years to learn how to adapt and trade the various markets and market conditions as they are always changing. Bullish markets, bearish markets, sideway markets. You absolutely do not begin the learning experience with money on the line. First you must learn what when...

Use a distant expiration date and just pay the bad spread, correct? NAD

Trying to stimulate some thinking from fellow traders that happen to share the bullish scenarios.

I'm fairly confident we will see a rise in the Nasdaq Composite to test the 3000 level this year. At the same time I wish to heavily invest in such call and I'm looking for help on what would be the most prudent way to do so as my background is trading and not medium term investing. I...

Volente, I reacted on the 72 long trade because I had a feeling I would not get the fill, that's why I posted the blotter. This journal uses ES but ES is too big for me particularly because of all the scale ins and scale outs I do which is why I trade SPY as I can split the 1 car. Perhaps...

Depends... Breakout mode. If I know I'm trading a breakout, I do continuous adds of equal size and simultaenously trail a stop as the breakout does its thing. Taking consolidation periods during the breakout as consideration. Typical mode. If I'm expecting whipsaw action, I make...

Managed to get long around the 74.x area (evidence upon request via PM). Will use pullback opportunities today to add to my trade, should be a choppy session due to options expiration but will trade it from the long side. Will kill the trade at high 80s, perhaps 90 if price action allows...

Buying ES 72 currently trading at 74.25 stop 67 but doubt it goes that low. Will add as direction confirms my trade. Looking for a breakout. NAD

Exited +11.50 full size + numerous adds I did as stated. NAD

I consider full size and full leverage two very different things. My initial size grows over time. I try to be polite but don't think I ever had the pleasure of meeting you. NAD

Going long ES 68 full size with a point stop 64 as market stop. Currently trading at 74.25. If I get the direction correctly, will add to the position as it works my way. NAD

The least probable scenario in a strong established trend is full reversal. I don't think about tops and bottoms, I take what the market is willing to give me, whatever that may be. Take the current news about Apple's CEO unexpected or expected leave of absence due to health issues. Maybe...
