    WOW. From April 27 until today (so far) 22 pages of comments on this highly emotional subject and yet when you ask a wannabe Trader what is so important, he will be quick say "you have to keep emotion out of this game" Well assuming the Wannabe is capable of doing what he preaches, then it...

    Just wondered if anyone is trading the ES off tick reversal charts. I have never considered it seriously before but I am starting to see the merit in it. For better or worse I have been watching a 3 tick reversal chart. Normally I trade off the 1M chart
