My largest winning trades have been overnight. I sold at a top and good resistance point, and bought back too early. Sold 4 ESZ @ 1139 and bought them back around 1135. ESZ is trading atm 1130 now. Can't get out of FX till the weekend.

Holding onto this short position for some reason, betting against the market indicators. We are still in a bull market. Waiting again till the weekend to decide what to do with my FX trades, in order to stick to my strategy. Not doing so hot, 1/2 a months pay (open) loss at the moment...

Going to start trading a system I have written in EL because I won't be home during the week now (damn jobs). It buys/sells at 830 central and exits at 1500 depending on what I declare the "trend" to be. Pretty simple. It'll be trading 1 contract of the NQ due to my small account size. I...

Fx is killing me now. I'll wait till the weekend to change any positions. I got out of my short position this morning when there was signs of bullishness. Good call. Negative divergences across the board now.

Short term indicators saying still a healthy bull market. I still am getting negative divergence on daily momentum with new highs. I have 1 sell limit on the NQZ

I will exit my short positions if we break into new highs today or tomorrow.

More bearish momentum divergence throughout index tracking ETFs (long and short x2/x3). I would post screen shots except it would take too much time. It's all a question of when, but I am short the market tomorrow. Market indicators seem to be pointing higher though :/ I'd prefer it if they...

And as usual, the market goes the other way. No one said this was going to be easy. Small losses today. Having trouble gaining traction.

Thanks for pointing that out. Regardless, the momentum is slowing down on every single high volume ETF that tracks an index. Trying to catch exact tops is a futile endeavor. I'll roll my position if need be.

Shorting this euphoria for good reason. Here's an Easter egg: Part of my equation is momentum. Other 8 indicators are showing weakness at this level.

Going to be short biased on 9/13!

Still hanging in there. Slightly + on both accounts.

I just realized a major flaw in my trading strategy: I have adjusted my index trading strategy and removed the moving averages from most of the indicators. Contains the same basic components though.

Indicators were all long for today and continue to point higher. I want to strangle someone at my broker (OEC) for locking my account today. Yesterday, I bought before the close of the day and didn't get out of the position until after 1530. This triggered my account to be frozen for this...

Today's P/C ratio on the indexes was 2.47. Hasn't been that high before that I know of.... I am being cautious with my long positions. I usually don't fade the index options traders.

Love those that diss the FX market. It's doing wonders for me. I am up over 1k on my Forex account. Started with around $2,300, I added 1k yesterday. Futures account still going nowhere. Indicators long for tomorrow, but price patterns are making me weary. I tried making money on the...

let's play the market today, long es @ 1096.75 x 2 contracts long nq @ 1860 x 2 contracts FX trades doing very well

Last time the market trended down (I didn't trust myself and missed out on X profit). Same old story this week. Aug 9 - 23 : all 8 indicators were saying sell. Sept 1 to today: all 8 say buy. The only thing preventing me from making money is me.

8 indicators turned up on September 1st. I am working on analyzing ETFs to determine market direction on top of the other indicators as more comfort. I have been doing a good job of not making or losing any money.

Got out at 1k profit from russell 2k early this am. Went short 1 contract the NQ luckily loss was only 700 today. Have to be careful of that 10k dow mark... Account has not really gone anywhere in a week.
