    :D Interesting study about the "Gap Guy". I have been practicing John Carter's gap play too. I gave up on doing it last week. It doesn't work for me... He manily focus on premarket volume on about 200 stocks corelated to ES Gap. He also mentioned, if gap didn't close for the day and you get...

    l like the coin toss analogy. Having a bias just like trying to fight the market. When things don't go with my bias, I just keep fighting it untill I completely realize it's wrong... I like to be "prepared" "anticipate" the next move, prepare for different senario, then I feel like I am...

    Tried not to pay too much attention to the news today. Turned off the CNBC volume. Only left my Pandora radio station on. Techno music! Market overnight reaction: broke up the consolidation zone, then sold off. When market opened up it retraced back up 50%, then sold off. I took a quick short...

    I hope you traded in SIM? I think your last "could have been a good trade" failed due to lots of exhaustion from trading range bound. You weren't thinking clearly when you hold to it untill it turned to a loss. I have same problem too... And when it turned to a loss(from winning), it became...

    You stated these 3 levels in this thread before Although I am only trading level 1, Level 2 and 3 are equally important too....In order to find and take level 1 trade(buy dip, sell rally within the trend) with high probabilities. I got to be able to identify reversal(leve 2), identify trend...

    Market prep: Market overnight made more than 4 pushes up. Jobless claim data improved, Exron earning was solid. Open gapped up more than 60Pts. everything seemed to be bullish. But it will be silly to continue to go long at the opening because market moved so much. So I waited for a breakout...

    Boli has taught us how to analyze a market like yesterday. With all the facts, I wish we can avoid a day like yesterday or play some fade the move trades. Today is pretty easy to tell it is probably a range day, although it did break out in late session.... I tried to trade the tight...

    Thank you! I wish I could "anticipate" it before I non stop trading false breakout... Does that mean, summer is only for scalpers?

    I like to call today as “a garbage day,” when I woke up, I wouldn’t be trading today if I were in live account. One obvious reason, 20EMA and 100EMA were flat and tangling together at the openings, besides the market is up against resistant level, beige book is released at 2EST. And market...

    The way I use indicators now... Price action comes first.... I look at the price action first, bars, patterns, S/R levels, then I would check indicators to filter whether it's a high-prob trade. I also got to look at the indictors for early warning signals to show the strength of the trend...
