    S&P Goes Longest Without A 5% Pullback In 20 Years As NFLX Leads Nasdaq To Record Highs

    WOW "always be going up" now that is a bold statement. I think we are due for a MONSTER correction. I hope so, cause I love the short side. So much money to be made as the fools run for the exit.

    For the Mini's does volume matter?

    Yes, I journal every trade, it is very valuable to look back at what I did and what I was thinking... for now, I have decided to lower the threshold to 3,000 CAR for 2 bars... it just feels a little crazy to have no volume rule at all. I still believe that volume does matter.

    For the Mini's does volume matter?

    Let's just forget I mentioned it to our Chicago opens. It's not relevant to the discussion. Yes you are correct what I mean to say is that if I had a lesser volume criteria or even No volume criteria there's trades I would now take. I am back texting as fast I can , but that will...
