winners in bonds and the mini sp all ready this morning. Was sitting here and did too much thinking. Further proof that thinking is bad! -

Whats that? :) Kidding, That goes along with other parts of the risk reward problem that pops up for each trade. If I just take goal I am in reality have probably intially risked 2 times more on the trade. Example, a bond trade for me rarely has less than a 4 tick intial stop, yet I can... -

right away this morning. See what happens. If it gets to be market open the trades will probably be posted well after the fact. I promise to sell the high and buy the low if that happens. :D Hopefully back soon with goal! -

welcome. Good questions, some of which I have spent somm time trying to answer, but pathetically don't have a definite answer too. No holding overnight for this plan. As I see how this plays out it may very well change my discretionary trading, but at this point I am keeping the 2... -

looking for a buy, but with indexes going up and bond falling back I changed to sell bias for bonds. To me ^26 was a support area, and I sold it after it had pulled bakc up thru it and was coming back down thru it. My risk was ^28- ^31 area. 1st target would have been ^17, the overnight... -

Net= $198.1. COuld have had a trade with the trend before the news and had goal, but nerves gave out. With bonds going up and a quick pivot lower high I went with the 1052.5 sell. After the fact I could have held for better reward based on a 1 pt risk. Kind of a dilema with having a $goal as...
