thanks martys... but that helps clarify the point:)

spike, how do you ID the trend? Do you use intraday data or daily? We all talk about trading with the trend but I my opinion it is easier said than done.

2 more days... you never know you could reverse and end up net positive. It seems your form of trading may only work during low volatilty, range bound days. good luck

by the way you may now want to buy for a point or so... the market is rising as TICK is falling to -600

martys, look I can't figure out if this is painful to read or entertaining. If you were an ass, than we would be laughing but... man I can only say this... Do You Want To Be RIGHT? Or Do You Want To Be RICH?

martys, Since reading your comments it appears that you need instant proof that your trade is going in the correct direction. I don't know if you use indicators or not (I don't remember) but I think you should incorporate the reading the action on the TICK. Either before you enter your...

babak, could you post a description of this dummies set up? I click on the link you posted but did not see what I think I should see. Thanks

what is the FOMC???? :D The minutes RC are a more detailed look of what happened in the meeting that just took place. Some investors see that the fed raised the rate... others like to look at the minutes to see what the general consensus was. If everyone wanted to raise rates... it may...

optioncoach, do you take trades where the index starts moving in a direction, break out or something else... then as the index is moving... the tick starts moving in the opposite direction... but the price stays pretty stable. Is this a good time to enter into the direction of the index...

appears to be a short term bottom... moving stop to breakeven. took some profit at 1191

gonna' take 3 pt. profit at 1190. its MIT so more like 2.75... then I'm done for the day!

thanks for opening this journal! especially after we got "kicked" off or RC's :D haven't looked at the tick stuff, but thanks in advance for posting it. went short at 11:00 with a 2.5 pt stop looking to exit at 1190... who knows though this action seems to have flattened out here.

optioncoach, you called it... looks like its drifting! by the way, could you explain how you read TICK? I understand the general stuff but... I moves so rapidly from on dxn to the other. how do you read it through an indicator. Another issue which if you care to clarify... TICK...

ooh I got a trade!!! ooh I got a trade!!! crap can't tell you cause I didn't pay ET $1500 for the month to advertise.... I feel like a crab... just when I was gonna' get out of the bucket... the ET staff brings pulls me back in :D

of course anything is possible but I THINK... 3:00 we will start pushing higher... if we hold here at 1193.00 we should defintly go higher starting at 3:30... let's see what happens! Sad we have to do this... I was looking forward to trading the RC signals for FREE!!!! I was gonna'...

not too sure... its early although I am done for the day I would not be surprised to test 1200 from these levels starting at say 3:00 pm est/ just thinking... which can get me in trouble :)

taking profit now... about 3+ points done for the day... you missed my earlier trade that went long at 11:00 took 4 points there too. if you want to see more subscribe for 1000 cheese sticks... I mean cheez-its! :D

got it in the mail last thursday

ok so until RC comes back... :D go short at 13:30 (25 more minutes) IF ES price is at or below 1198.50 regardless of what the price is... the stop is 2.5 points from the open of the 13:30 candle. should be good for 3 to 5 points. you have to pay 1000 cheez-its to get a fully...

look no one is calling anyone a loser... it just trying to maintain some adult maturity about it. Some of things we so easily type are not things we would really have the balls to say to that same persons' face. Hence, why type it at all? EP is right, this guy RC is way off base, an he will...
