    Of course, and I am nothing if not fair. I can see that how Buy1Sell2 trades is of great importance to you. My original response to you comes out of the fact that how someone else trades means nothing to me. I'm here for the company.

    how to understand Al Brooks

    He was a student of a different mentor, and not a Brooks student. I don't remember all the details, but I remember the players. The mentor has since passed away, and not worth dredging it up now. There is also an old thread here at ET about frayed short collars and holes in shoes which is a...

    Go get 'em, B1S2. I am looking to re-short, and imho the market is indicating lower lows of a yet to be determined extent are in the very near future. Best to your trading.

    how to understand Al Brooks

    Imagine you are a professional editor and you receive Brook's manuscript. My guess is that the editor sent it back immediately demanding a full re-write, and the publisher just went and published it as is. I applaud @Frederick Foresight as I only made it a handful of pages before I gave up...

    A drop below 28.50 should seal the deal. I have a limit order to take profits at 2594.75 if it gets there. Otherwise I close out by EOD.

    This is the best bounce of the day thus far, and even a weak market should be able to trade back to ES 32/33. That doesn't mean it will. But I'd be looking for a small rally to 32 or even 38 before the EOD selling takes this things down to close on its lows, imho.

    IMHO, there has been no price action indicating one should do anything but short the bounces all day long. Some may feel that is stating the obvious. But for some, the obvious is not so obvious. EDIT: However, trade back above 2627 would indicate a larger pullback than we've had all day is...

    To some, that overnight rally was a gift. And thus we have the market.

    I'll not be updating all day long. Scale out at levels for me starting at 2658 down to 2630. GLTA.

    IMHO, this is a sell the bounces type of day. This should be one of those days where the market gives a week's or even a month's worth of profits on one patient entry. No need to trail tight, imo - just let the market move to where it wants to move, which is lower.

    I understand how you are defining gaps. You might find it helpful to refine it a bit more so that you distinguish between gaps where the opening print represents a gap from the prior close but is still within the prior day's range, and those gaps where the opening print is above or below the...

    Just sharing my view. Wouldn't expect to persuade anyone else to abandon his or her view for mine. Good luck to you today.

    ES Journal - 2017/2018

    IMHO, the trade for now is short from the 87's, the first target yesterday's 57.25 low, and if trades below the half figure, then 2343's down to 2332. Good luck.

    How to overcome the inability to accept small losses when wrong on trades?

    The meaning will be whatever meaning the trader gives it. You and I view the markets differently from one another, which, of course, is an important characteristic of markets. All that matters is that we each are happy with the outcome of our respective views. Best to your trading.

    How to overcome the inability to accept small losses when wrong on trades?

    No problem, I knew what you meant. But time frame, strictly speaking, is the period of time over which something takes place. You are referring to the chart's individual bar interval. Bar interval is of little relevance to me. For example, the ES rally high on 4/18/2018 was 2718.50. That...
