ER2 held at 732 while YM moved up 10pts. Then Both came down together back to the +123% fib. YM will bounce, but will it take out the previous high?
THe DAX ended near its lows for the day and trended down all day.
All longs should be YM, and shorts should be on ER2.
dia at 50 ma, iwm at 200 ma.

Well we did just that. Into the after hours.
My initial trades for the day should have been held longer.
One more chart,,I have to bang this into my head. DIVERGENCES!!!!!
Thanks Romik.
I have some work to do on my scalp trades. The holding time is to long, and I let them turn into averaged down losers. I've been trying not to do that, but the divergence I saw between YM and ER2 told me that ER2 was going to bounce with the rest of the indices.
Here is a comparison chart of what would of happened if I went long YM instead of ER2. This is the second time I've made this mistake. I'm still trying to learn how to trade these divergences. I think I've come to the conclusion, if ER2 has bearish divergence, you stay away from long scalps on...
Trade summary=
Averaged a loser, #1 mistake. Traded the closing 30min from an impulsive scalp, that went green to red and worse when averaged down.
Should have left when I said I was going to. Very mad at myself. I'm really pissed that NQ, ES and YM bounced, but ER2 continued to screw me...
Well, I screwed myself bad. First losing day in 3 weeks. I saw bullish div. and started scalping long on ER2, look at my arrows, that's where I was buying. ER2 kept going down, but YM was bouncing. If I had gone long YM I would have made profit, instead of a huge loss. Also note, I tend to suck...
