Looks like I didn't miss anything the rest of the day. Glad I missed it.

Hey Rick, I really don't use anything else for my own trading. If I did it would be a chartpattern like flags or pennants. I have discussed a reversal method using bollinger bands that works very well on days like today. I would have had 2 trades today using that method. Both would have worked...

I am going to take off for a couple of hours and get some real work done. I'll check back this afternoon.

Thank you. You know all you guys don't have to tip toe around me. I don't have any problems with people questioning me or my methods. It doesn't matter to me if people don't agree with me about anything. Feel free to ask anything and talk about anything.

I might not watch much longer myself. I have some work to do so if I do it now I could be back this afternoon. Have a good day at work.

No there really isn't a reason. If it takes all day for my numbers to hit I usually burned out from watching all day is all. If by chance I am watching within 30 minutes of close I would probably take it but not expect to get my full 2 points.

What a snooze fest today is so far. This is not what I needed today. I hit a big sale yesterday that will increase my business by about 50%. I was so excited and worried that I have been up since 2:00 this morning running numbers for everything. Also caught the spat between JJ and Romik (I just...

I'll be watching them for right now I want to see how the market reacts at these levels. Thanks...

Like I said yesterday I might not be on target with your software after a trend day. They tend to not factor in the congestion areas that happen during those days. I want to match it up after a big day. So don't leave this journal until we get one. I'll help keep you disciplined today. Hows...

Not that it really matters much but here is what I am thinking for today. Morning rally and afternoon sell off. I am thinking the institution guys are going to take some profits this afternoon so I expect the pump and dump today.

I guess I forgot to post my chart for today, here it is.

very interesting

No problemo Dude. Hopefully we will have a good morning today. I want to get mine done early today.

Actually yesterday it missed the entry by .25 the high was 1350.50 and my entry would have been 1350.75. But if it hit and I was watching I probably would have taken it. That is about as late as I would try though. I really never cared for trading the last hour or 30 minutes before the open.

Good morning everyone, Here are my numbers for today. I am going to take my son to school this morning so I hope the market doesn't make a big move before I get back but as Don said yesterday it could happen. If it does I'll decide what I am going to do afterwards. Long 1351.00 - 1370...

I would agree. I think most of us agree that about 90 - 95% of traders are not able to make a profit. If you have 2 that do make a profit who really can argue with how they do it.

Not sure I totally agree with you. Sometimes time matters as well. If I can take one high probability trade a day with 50 contracts and make 2 points with very little stress then why would I bother wasting a lot more time trading half the size for 4 points. Saving a few bucks on commission isn't...

CO, I appreciate the nice words but in no way am I some trading guru or anything. The one thing I have always said in here is for everybody to trade their own way. I just try to help when necessary, this is not a dictatorship by any means. And also if someone asks what company you use for...

Hey John, How are things going in your neighborhood? I didn't know that you started this journal but wanted to wish you good luck and a lot of good trading. Gary
