Short at 1457.25 on a rejection off of a downtrending 50 MA in a 10 min. fractal. Stop above HOD.

Another fantasy trade on his part.

Its a simple question. What's the time stamp on your execution?

What's the time stamp on your buy execution? You said your target was reached in 12 minutes. Trades were hitting 1458 at 10:11 a.m. So counting backwards, that's right around 10:00 a.m.

You sure must have a fast trigger finger. The entire Ask @1451.50 was taken out in literally 2 seconds.

I guess they didn't get your memo. :D

Nice try, except the low on the ES was 1423.25.

No reversal? Starting to look like a train wreck.

No need to get defensive. I'm not trying to attack you. I was just trying to understand how your system could keep reversing direction within a 2 point or so range, and then when the market moved 12 points, there was no reversal until the market had swung back 14 points from the low. That's...

Well, unless you are just flipping a coin whether the market moves higher or lower, then whatever you are using as criteria for entering a trade certainly has directionality to it. I mean no one goes long unless they expect the market to head higher over the time period of the trade. So, every...

OK, tell me if I got this right. You didn't cover for 10+ points because you were looking for greater profit, ie., 30-50 points. You were willing to risk more than 10 points, so you couldn't settle for 10 points due to the risk: reward. If I am correct, then I assume you expect the ES to...

Man, I don't understand your system. You let an 11+ point swing trade profit evaporate and ultimately turn into a loss. How is that kind of trading supposed to be profitable over time?

I think most here would agree that you are one of the sharper tools in shed. It seems that you are willing to sacrifice some points just to get back into the "swing" of things. So, I say best of luck.

Well, was your present entry based on some technical analysis that made you feel the market would go lower before it went higher?

I don't get it. You expect upside soon, but yet you take a positional short now. Why not wait for the upswing, then initiate the short?

Were all these covered at 1415.25?

Ho,Ho,Ho. :D

He asked about e-minis, not equities.

So, using your logic, returning $90k at the end of a year on a $1MM account is more impressive than returning $33k on a $10k account. OK, if you say so.

That's only 130%. You need to add another 10k to that.
