    I wonder if you can guys can tell me your how you approach profit targets daily / weekly / monthly. I read something yesterday that applied to me, i have had only 1 losing day this month (arbitrary loss of -$150) which is minor. However, my target has been to average 4 ES points daily and...

    Yes i hate sitting here through this type of action. Most often when its this slow i take a break and come back for the action later. Great time for automated scalping system imo.

    How did you get shaken out of 34.75 entry when LOD was 33.50 - are your stops less than 1.25 pts???

    With everyone so bearish i kind of got worried with this one. Taken 2 out at 41 leaving last with trailing stop. I sensed nice opportunity down there, did not expect the move to be so explosive though. Still think we can break 1546.50, with an ultimate target to 1560 - will be watching it...

    No problem mate, market profile helps with my analysis because it shows time, price and volume. As you can see from yesterdays analysis that alot of people who went short went home very happy last night as price closed on the days lows. These shorts probably felt they has some breathing room as...

    Ya, good analysis - i have to admit i let my emotions and psychology control my rational expectations yesterday. Bears were certainly running out of steam. Anyway i though i would share a small part of my analysis including market profile as i don't see many individuals using this...

    Im out here last unit at 1534.25. Odds certainly favour the shorts tomorrow imo and shorts have too much power for me to hold on to last unit.

    A very nice counter-trend - it was easy to see some big boy was accumulating down there. Holding last unit till 1537.50 if we ever get there. Trade represented nice risk-reward. Tight stop on last unit. Even though i expect some downturn to follow tomorrow or next couple of days.

    I don't really understand Buy1Sell2 thinking at all again - to me gaps give me some early warning and clues on what the intentions of the market players are. They don't always have to be right but like Smilingsync stated its all about odds. Gaps give me a heads up on wether my odds increase...

    Im out one unit at 95.75 - bit early but feeling a tad bit jittery today. Leaving the other unit for test of highs, tight stop. :D Out second unit at 96.75, feel some sellers coming on - most likely way to early. Man i suck - can't believe i did not hold onto that low risk winner. Its...

    I hope not Saxon, got my first long of the dayt here. Test of the overnight high would be nice. Nice excess spike on the 15 min chart for good odds of reversal.

    Simple answer is that lowering taxes will get them votes regardless of economic implications. :D To Governments - vote lobbying is everything, i doubt they have the economies intentions at heart.

    This was my a great set-up, again i jumped the gun a little early but looking for nice reversion to the mean. Got 3 in but 2 more were waiting to get filled. Target is 1490 on first unit and letting 2nd unit run. Reversal bar was major confirmation at resistance zone for me. I also employ...

    I went short at the resistance level, i expected them to blast a few stops before any move down. Got positioned on a reversal signal which coincides nicely with where the move down started in AH. Keeping last unit short until target of 87.50.

    No offence mate but you come of as a very creepy individual. I am not one to get annoyed at posts on a forum but for you contribute nothing yet come on here all the time. What your missing is that we enjoyed APEX style of trading, he made great calls which leads to some form of understanding...

    I think your spot on my friend, APEX has made exceptional calls time and time again. Anyone who says otherwise is obviously very envious of his trading abilities. I never seen one call from the so called experts who have been preaching on here time and time again, if they were so great then...
