    I'm done shorting today, unless they push above 1323. They filled the gap from last Friday or close to it. Finally able to make some good money this month. The Bulls have too much power in the wings for me to be aggressive.

    thanks, missed the last run down, I can live with that. Going to grab some here though and hold overnite. If they gap down, I'll cover @ the open. This was a rollar coaster ride.

    b1s2, Here you go for those 1329.50 shorts, nice gain. Have to be in a position to catch that. I think they dipped below 1321.

    How long does it take?

    Art Bell still around? I remeber 10-15 years ago when he said buy Gold, the world is coming to and end. I wonder if he bought some.

    Thanks man. I like to get perspective from people who have obviously made it, like yourself. 45, I hope I can make it that long in this market, I'm kidding, I think.

    I'm 32. I naturally assumed you have been doing this for quite sometime to be able to positonal trade like you do. I'm sure you will be able to manage it nicely. I just hope I can trade it right when it breaks.

    Exactly, its as free as a trade can ever get. Take it while you can, may not be there much longer.

    Covered my friday overnites for small gain. Going to stay flat until FOMC. Low volume, low vix equals not enough action. Hopefully the Fed will clarify their actions wednesday. There will be a dramatic spike in volume after their statement. My experiment of trying to hold for bigger gains...

    I can see exactly where I missed my cover on my 1324.75 short reversal trade, ended up being the intraday trading low had I covered. Another lesson learned. Good chart btw.

    Trading with real money and carrying 3 units @ 1328. That is a no brainer for me. There is no way I'm locking in a one point loss on this one. Its far to optimal and I fought hard to get my avg price this hi. I was buffered by hedging with ym long today. I have covers in @ 1326/25 area and...

    Just protect your capital for now. These type of days happen, but are few and far between. Just trust your edge and keep hitting it. Frustration is part of trading. Dont second guess yourself unless you dont trust your edge. Have a good weekend to all.

    Its a crutch pair, only used on trending days to minimize losses. And I dont trade it, I just hold it and it allows me to take more heat on my short entry. My avg. price on the ES is 1328 which I will swing into the aftermarket and Monday if need be. My system is designed to trade for...
