Monster up week next week?

bored now of my 81 long, will close it today if we hit 1691 I still think we're gonna just keep going up overall for months on end, but I would rather have a clean slate and hopefully look to buy any dips next week

Fullauto was probably talking about using options to hedge a futures position. The other thing i've seen people do, (which was just mentioned in fact), is to abandon stops and use tiny position size instead, so that big moves don't hurt too much, and you can average in. Kind of pointless...

yes, albeit my own interpretation of it! I've read the various wykoff inspired type threads that seem very popular at the moment, but I can't really get my head around it, and am just trading price based on my own observations.

slightly annoying that it showed me 10 points profit at one point and now it's near breakeven, lol

For what it's worth, i'm 'supposed' to be bearish below 1682. However, I really can't view the ES the same as the other instruments I trade that are more '2 sided'. I see shorts as very high risk on the manipulated ES and so will just watch it and see how it plays out if it breaks 82, as...

LOL Perish the thought! And 'size'? I'm kinda new and strictly 1 contract for me!

here's my CL chart today

I would certainly never bank on the ES going down. The odds in general are HEAVILY stacked in your favour if you only go long.

still long from 81. Original target was 1690, but I moved it to 1696 last night which looks like it was the wrong thing to do at the moment. However, the ES generally seems to go up unless any terrible news comes out, so i'm still confident i'll get my target soon. Stop is at 1674

Moving target to 1696 which should get hit tomorrow.

Just 2 points from target now. Although, thinking I should raise my target a little. Overall, we'll likely just keep going up and up on the whole, barring any catastrophic news events

Getting close. ES is fast becoming my favourite instrument. Yet to have a losing long trade! (shorts on the other hand!) Strong underlying upside bias seems always present. An in-built EDGE!

long term, they look intent on going up. I don't swing trade yet, but would be tempted to get long here, looking for 1800 or so.

moved stop to 1674 Thinking we might get a stronger rally than I first thought. Target is 1690 for now.

Yeah, certainly can't see it going much lower any time soon. Expecting further upside.

My dad also made a small fortune with a little method he worked out. Similar to you, it wasn't an amazing amount of money and i'm sure most posters here would consider it chicken-feed, but he turned £8000(ish) into about £150,000 in about 1 year. However, he concluded that it was all...

held all the gains really well and looking like we should have another rally soon at a guess. Maybe a patriotic 9/11 rally? Stop on my long is at 1673 Target around 1690 level

looking for 1687 - 1690

long 1681 stop at 1676
