I'm still here too. I'm working more on discipline. Can't seem to follow rulz. So taking a loss with the rules would probably be good for me in the long run. Although taking a profit with the rules would be much better. Opps - out minus 1 pt dooooohhhhh!!!!!

Hey Romik - you'd be crazy to take profits until at least 1335 :D SL moved to BE -1

Yeah but when you add that to my single.....well I think you get the picture. And I'm short again (I wish it would have gotten back up to yesterday's close first)

Now that there are 3 or 4 of us trading this level, the market just can't overcome all of our order flow!! :D SL moved to BE -1 Dealer showing a 4 against my 13. I'll stay. I know it's not gambling, but the analogy with probabilites always works for me. :) edit: I'll be an optimist and...

I did a 5 year exchange with the Navy and enjoyed that. Can't say I loved Wichita Falls but I have some great friends from there. Short at 1337.25 as advertised (its already making me nervous though :confused: )

Morning everyone, I will be short at 1337.25 with 2+2 (PT + initial SL) Happy birthday Gary! Some complain about birthdays but it sure beats the alternative. I hit 41 last month :D I'm in the metropolis of Anchorage for 18 more weeks and 3 days. Thats when the Air Force will send me on...

Gary, Hope you enjoyed the fair!! Have really enjoyed posting here instead of only reading. Might have gotten carried away though. :D Thanks for looking at the numbers I threw up. I did miss the 1343 late in the day there. I'll keep at it. I guess getting up at 4 something to trade is...

Heres a daily chart of the s&p index from 2001ish

Here's the chart for the support. 15m chart of esz06

Here's my numbers for tomorrow. I put them up for discussion purposes only!!! I am NOT a profitable trader so following my numbers is not smart :D Long: 1351.25 Short1: 1337.25 Short2: 1334.50 I attached a detailed explanation of how I came up with these levels (too long and...

Gary's S/R trade pays again!! Of course I missed it :mad: I was out with two losses doing ",my own thing". Maybe there's some truth to the notion that someone could show you their system and you probably still wouldn't be able to trade it. The S/R resulted in a conservative 3 pts of profit today...

Looks like Gary's S/R trade just got another entry. Too bad I'm sidelined for the day. Could be a good thing though time will tell. twink

KT, You definitely called that one right. Volume on the breakout was a little weak and I threw two losing trades at it. I need to figure out if I'm going to reenter trades if an initial breakout suffers a throw back. One trade isn't close to enough info to make a decision on. Definitely...

Pretty minor for these small moves but starting to see a BLD on the 5m. twink

Also have this bearish hcz on the 5m and a breakout of the pennent on the 15m. I have them attached side by side. I'm short 2 ticks below the low of the pattern with 5 tick PT and SL. Yes I know Gary goes for 2 pts but I'm new :) twink edit: stopped out with a 1.25 pt loss :)...

Hey KT, I originally drew that as a bull flag on the 5m and as the sideways movement continued I changed over to a horizontal congestion zone. I don't know if that's what it's called but I think you trade the breakouts just like the flags and pennents. Wish the "man" was here :) twink

Where is everybody?? Bear flag on the 5m?? edit: looking to get short at 1339.50 on breakout of bear flag edit: using the edit function to keep the posts down but it looks like a pennent on the 15m.

Out with 1.25 pts. Still waiting for my S/R entry. Don't have steak money but mc'ds is definitely in my future!! twink edit: short at 1342.50 with 2 pt PT and SL edit: SL moved to 1 pt edit: SL moved to BE + 1 edit: out with 1 pt!! Now I owe Gary a steak! To bad he's at the fair :D

Hey KT, I think Gary would give the breakout 0.50 before entry from a pennent. Disclaimer - newb twink

Discipline fails me - short 1346.50. PT and SL 5 ticks (market ain't givin' much). Besides I want to be on the same side of the market as romik :p
