Is that 40 points volente? nice play I had a nice profit at the beginning of the day ie went long but then ended up giving it back trying to trade that consolidation. I need to work on my strat more :)

what made you short here volente? to close the gap?

anyone go long at the open? whats your target? or you just going to sell at the first sign of weakness?

Thanks for the book suggestions Volente; Looks like I will be picking up pit bull and disciplined trader; I have trading for a living (one of my favorite books) its a good book even if you arnt going to use his trading styles. Shows how to put a system together and to trade it. I...

could you explain that a little more on gold I dont get it how it is easy; I must be trading in wrong. Are you saying you look at one chart then trade the CBOT gold either the mini or the 100oz?

btw any of you guys trade anything in the off hours? I've been fooling around with the euro and gold (but I've gotten kicked a bunch of times with gold because (the charts are too sparatic and the spread).

ahh maybe I should check out the disciplined trader (got a 100$ gift card to amazon to use :) ya I had a real hard time reading trading in the zone; seemed to me for real uptight and conservative traders. any other good books you suggest volente on money management, T.A. or even futures...

Well volente started the thread and sounds like he enjoys talking about your upcoming trading. So I say no stay here and keep sharing :) well until we make a new thread (when this one gets too big).

Well I for one enjoy talking with JM about his mentor and his upcoming trades. He's got some decent charts and practice trades he has shown. I'm all into learning and trading phsycology (hmm misspelled). And I'm still new myself at trading futures

volente I read hmm either that book or his 2nd book; I'm trying to remember what the title is. I would think it would be pretty hard to trade futures and to read his book (least the one that I read (was newer). Because he talks about strict risk management and like using 2% of a acct for...

I was going to ask JM does your mentor let you view his esignal or do you have your own esig? What do they run a month? last time I checked it was 150$ or more; one of the reasons I'm still with qcharts paying I think 97$

ya JM consider yourself pretty lucky ... most people wont mentor you without you paying them thousands of dollars. That guy must be pretty cool. I've been on and off trading for 8 years and been doing most of it solo (its pretty rough when you make mistakes that cost you $$$; when someone...

im out at 477 -1 dont like being in there at the top of a trendline with not a clear signal yet

bought in again at 478 (little risky) but want to see if we spring from here. I figure if we make it past 490 were good to go if not then we might be forming a wedge I dont know if I have the gumption to short just yet thou have to see what pans out

now its decision time breakout or wait or pullback

we might be going for that 40 point move now Blackguard

Blackguard, my question is do you think for the past 2 days we have been forming a upslanting wedge on the 15 min chart or a dbl bottom. I mean it could go both ways; ie wedge looks more likely to me but the dbl bottom looks promising also what do you think?

I agree with you' but right now I think were trying to decide if were going to have a pullback to some support ie the 10424 level then bounce from there

I have a feeling what we might do here ... we got 30 mins to do it lets see if it pans out ... we go up and hit the 10500 mark~ and then if we have some ok news tomorrow well gap up and make a island reversal out of the past couple days. then again maybe Im wrong and well hangout here for...

I need to not over trade and to go for 'clear' winners. I had 2 really good trades today but then again I had a bunch of mess ups. So I'm still down for the day.
