    wh1te, thanks for sticking around. I think i'll sim a bit to restore some confidence and try out some trading on a the 5min chart. I think the reason your 2nd trade didn't work was that you didn't have much of a confirmation for a reversal vs the 1st trade. Of course I'm assuming that...

    Its official. I'm trading scared. Got in long at a great location and took myself out when the trading didn't move immediately in my favour. So instead of a +10, its a -3. :( I need to shake the last week off and get back into my groove. Markets can sure mess with your head :(

    Rock: Yes I can trade after the first 2 hrs however it has been difficult as it is evening for me here and I need some time to relax. I found that it put too much pressure on me and so I decided to limit myself to the first 2 hrs. Afternoon sessions do trade a bit differently. I like the...

    Started the week with -10. Took a short off the first pullback after the open. I should have suspected this wasn't such a good oppty but pulled the trigger despite. I need to be a little more choosey...

    hey wh1te, hope you had a great weekend. I think your trade was just right. So far the trades you have put on were pretty good. Don't try to fix something that isn't broken. I think you should keep doing what you are doing and the improvement will come on its own. I've found that...

    NoDoji, while I think Incy should confirm, based on the chart posted a few pages ago, the entry is in the upper wick, hence when it was entered into the candle was a big blue/green candle. Hence, why I didn't like his entry.

    spd, He entered at the upper wick during that 5min candle, so I think the entry was very poor. He had no idea the candle would close like it did. And the candle could have closed up and another loss would have been recorded. The best entry would have been after the candle closed with a...

    Well didn't manage to stay away yesterday. I did pull a trade on the push down and mini pullback. Made 10 points which is nice after the difficult days I've had. I think I need to get in better position or better filter my trades. I'm glad you are doing so well wh1te! Nice job. What...

    Hey man, Thanks for posting. I've been frustrated and a little lazy. I did 1 trade too yty. I lost 3 pts. There doesn't seem to be any follow through on moves and countertrending looks like a better deal than trend based trades.

    Another sucky day. When will summer end? Lost 12 points on a short of a pullback of what I thought may have been a down move.

    Basically, the trade was not picking up any steam so I took myself out for a tiny profit. Just in time too! It would have gone to my stop. So +4 for the day. Hopefully, market activity will pickup soon as it feels like summer trading :(

    Was a little lazy on Friday as I was busy but still managed a trade. I did it on my netbook and as I was on a different computer I decided to leave the note taking for today. Well, when I opened TS the graph doesn't show the entry/exit correctly as the US changed times and now the market opens...
