A. From the times posted earlier for your trades on Friday. If they are right, it looks like that first trade took about 5 points of heat. Is that correct? I know you must get tired of reliving trades, but what was entry reason. I am guessing it was the first trendline break preceded by a...

A. I looked at your trades from Friday and on the 1000nq, it was clear that you were basically following the earlier trendline summary from a couple of days ago, (below). You made one reverse to the upside apparently based on a longbar up, but everything else seemed pretty much by the book...

A. There may not be anything to say, but yesterday I think a lot of us got chopped trying to hold on to positions. You were making quick scalps. Was there anything different about yesterday that kept you from holding trades, or just your normal trading?

W now?

A. Watch out for the painkillers and stouts.........can become a lifestyle :cool: Attached is your chart from today with a couple of 3rd pt. hits.

A. I am not one of the "experienced" traders, but I would like to throw this out for comments. I have noticed (wow! I must be the first!) that taking the third hit on a trendline that follows the bottom of an uptrending channel (opposite for sells) often catches the entries that would...

I waited for the tl to break before entry, however it has not gone far, out of it now.

A. must be under the weather today. I find that I do better waiting for those 3-5 setups, when I disconnect my mouse and put it in the freezer. Nice to see some dialogue on setups and trades. Thanks all.
