Hi Matcha, Wow! I had a similar LONG trade right at your last trade. My only trade of the day and lost 1.75 ES points. Looking back at my charts, even though the 5 min & 1 min stochastic are showing O/S, I should have paid attention to the 15 minute chart which was on an early downward slope...

Hi Sis ~~~, Thank you very much for sharing. :) I have never seen anything as exquisite as these! One word to describe these incredible classics - AMAZING! I am convinced that you are a very ROMANTIC and lovely lady. :) :) --po

Very cool! :) :) The trilogy must be a very well received classic in Hong Kong and Asia. Thank you Sis ~~~. --po

Hi Matcha, Thanks. I will make sure I have the broker's number taped to my monitor. The online trading radio's regular host took a day off. So there wasn't much real time market analysis, only music and the S&P futures pit audio feed and the ES 1 minute chart. Last few days, I saw him drew...

Hi Boli, Thanks for the advice on momentum oscillators. I agree with you that Stochastic is very sensitive especially in the smaller timeframe like 1 or 2 minute chart. I look at all the stochastic on higher timeframess, 5 min, 15 minutes and 30 minutes. I try to catch a wave in the context...

Hi Boli, I am glad that you like indicators. I agree with you - "indicators, when used well, can help us decide on and time an entry". I sometimes feel the same about candlestick and bar-by-bar analysis are so overrated because they are so over my head. I still have a long way to go to...

Dear Sis ~~~, Thank you! Now I know who XiaLongNui and Yang Guo are. :) You are way cool! Well said regarding the hardest part of trading is to master and control my emotions. It is the most challenging part of my learning. It is something totally unscientific and very hard to quantify. I...

Hi Matcha, It's a winning day that counts. :) My trading day was frustrating. My PC froze at the worst time. I was about to take profit to close a trade and found out I couldn't enter anything. By the time I reset the PC, the trade was stopped out at a a max loss of my protective stop...

Hi Dear Sis ~~~, :) :) Hehe! Now I need to learn some trading kungfu from XiaoLongNui and Yang Guo. Have a great trip to paradise Asia! --po

Hi Matcha, Nice bounce back from yesterday! You did good on those 2 profitable setups. More will be waiting for you tomorrow! :) --po

Hi Sis ~~~, You are a great mentor. :) --po

Hi Matcha, Sorry about today's trading. Tomorrow, all the good setups will be there for YOU!!!! The morning session was particularly hard, at least from my past experience on narrow choppy trading range days. I saw in the first 2 hours the YM cash index was trading in a 20 point range...

Hi Matcha, For your second entry, like NoDoji said, it was a great one. I probably would have done the same thing to exit early to protect the profit since there were some gyrations prior to that point. One thing I consider doing is to monitor the trade using a higher timeframe to see if the...

Hi Matcha, Yes, you are right that trading is so damn hard yet so fascinating!!!!! I really like your attitude. Your hardwork will pay off!!!!! --po

Hi Matcha, First of all, congratulations on your 1st week of profitable LIVE trading! And you did great on keeping the number of trades in check to target the high probability opportunities. Keep it up! :) :) Your analysis is superb! I, too have to reflect on how I can improve on my...

Hi Matcha, I like using stop orders for almost all of my entries. The stop order "sweeps" me into the trade in my intended direction. I think both Dr. Al Brooks and Dr. A. Elders are advocates of using this type of orders. I find this easier to trade than using limit orders as I sometimes...

Hi Matcha my great partner! :) You are awesome! Thank you very much for the link. It is a wonderful website! I have never seen it before. I like the idea of trading one set up. First master it and feel at ease with it rather than overloading with too many concepts. For the last few...

Hi Matcha, You did exactly the right thing today. When you have hesitations, it is better to sit out the trades. You have passed the discipline test today! :) On Marcel's book pg 227, bullet #7, he said - "it's okay to miss trades." This is the beauty of being a day trader. There will...

Hi Matcha, Awesome trading!!!!! Congrats on your big day today!!!!!! You will have many more days like today! The WAITING is your secret weapon that I am sure you already know. I need to learn from you on keeping my trades in check to wait for the right moment. Today, I started out...
