We have broken the 60min trend now. Also, have the double top at 70 - will be interesting to see how today will play out. Expecting test of 1333 maybe today. However, something that concerns me is that value is higher. Yesterday value zone is higher so lets see if prices can drag back up...

I feel your pain, i wish i could take back all the days i tried fighting my way out of a hole. The problem is the days that i actually did fight back from a big initial loss and became positive on the day was the worst because that re-enforces my negative trading. Therefore, it was inevitable...

Thanks Wrongside. Would appreciate if you keep contributing to this journal - im sure i can learn alot from you and look forward to doing so.

Great trade to good day. Should be holding but i have same position in my swing account which is not really part of this journal. Out at 48 for 9.25 Most likely calling it a day here - have some things to do but i might try to get in some more screen time if i can. If not then stats for...

Not bad day for me so far - did give away 5 points twice but have to admit entries have all hit the 5point range. I considering increasing size just so i can scale out and bank these dollars that keep getting away from me. Pushing the boat on this one as i try to go for bigger gains when i am...

Short 57.25 - looking for a big one here, may hold overnight. I have noticed how on holidays they like to gap it up and then set-up for big smash down. HPQ earnings after the close - most likely going to be bad based on state of economy right now - maybe nice sell-off here i hope or after...

Can rest happy now stopped at 57 on last long from 58.

Thanks for reading i am trying to be as honest as i can with my trading. Well i have a number of simple plays which i have documented and tested for my day trading account. The only play i did not follow my plan today was the long at 58 which was basically trying to pick the low tick...

Im hoping we can put in a higher low here again and then shoot of to 68 for strong close. Got bit lucky on the 58 so far, we shall see though as none of these luck trades ever work out for me :D That why i should stick to the plan!!! Actually hope i get stopped on this one so it teaches me...

Will be looking for longs if we can get another higher low. If we break this uptrend here on 1 min chart then i will prepare to short for new lows. Long at 58 - took a shot on this one i must admit. This was not part of plan. 1pt stop

Looks like i will be stopped at b/e, not happy on this one - gave up 5 points on slow day. Bad trading there. Hope to get some luck and not be stopped out. :D Stopped b/e :mad:

Long at 59.50. Holding for 64-65 test. Tight stop. Really i should wait for the downtrend line (based on 1 min) to be broken before getting on on this one. OKay looking good, we have higher low now on shorter term chart. Lets see if we can break 62 with some conviction. Interesting...

Damn trail took me out at 59.25. Ah well onto the next one. +3.25

Moving stop to b/e and trail and target to 64. Gonna head off and get some lunch.

Long at 56, very counter-trend (my only counter-trend play for my daytrade account) - based on one of my plays. Very low probability winner but good R:R due to tight stop so im taking it. Long at 56 - target 66 Might take it off early into weak lunch time action - we shall see.

Thanks wrongside. I always feel anxious in first couple of trades starting a new week, its as if im scared to make a trade - i feel much more comfortable with some profits under my belt, so thats why new week targets are often smaller. Psychology wise i got a lot to overcome.

Even though i do like to hold for bigger gains when trade is going my way, had to exit and bank some gains on my measly 1 contract. Also, not only is that 57 resistance but it was a smaller intraday Target projection for my entry. Rule of 10 lovers also may see something there 68-58. If...

Out at 57.50 for +5

Clown trying to go with intraday trend here. Short at 62.50, bit worried about 10.30 turnaround.

Did not trade yesterday and just checked in on market too see what was going on. Price still uptrending on 60min but want to see how this will react at the 1370 level today. If it fails to break 70 we may start looking for shorts, otherwise will try to keep with the trend as much as i can...
