    So where's this second high? On what timeframe are you speaking of? On the 15min, the setups I play (RSI divergence in the overbought/oversold region) always has the second high/low higher/lower than the previous one. I think they're just triggering the stops before the change. Right now...

    Didn't we already go test the 930 region on Friday?

    Yeah, still learning the "watch out!" days. And I did monitor the activity -or lack of it-, just at intervals. I did see a scenario where the ES would go hit 915 or so, but not flirting with 930...

    Wow, am I the only getting raped? Unreal. Sold 912.50 pre-market with a bid @ 902.50. Things got jittery so just in case I placed a stop @ 911.50 when it was in the 908 region. Guess what, market pops and takes me out before crumbling. Then I let the day run without much action, but...

    Dammit, had a buy order for my NQ contract @ 1385, or basically 4 points too low. Ended up bagholding all the way up because I was busy with my day job. That's a sad 600$ swing. Kinda expensive for greed. Added a short @ 1421.75 and looking to close that one @ 1415 to play it safe...

    Hear Hear! Though I would change the "(and me in particular)" to "(and Decel in particular)" :p Futures drifting up... interesting.

    Thanks for the info! I agree one side (880 - 920/930) has to break at one point, and the upper end have lower and lower highs which reminds me of a descending triangle...

    Whoo, what a couple of days! Recouped what I lost yesterday and made scraps. Happy/Lucky that I added more shorts on the NQ in the 1420 region. Bought back my ES way too early (897.50 @ 2:33pm EDT), and now only holding a profitable NQ short contract. Buy limit order @ 1385 to close out in...

    Geh, got burned trying to catch a rocket. Holding both ES and NQ short for now, will monitor my situation. In hindsight, I should have done like LC, knowing that we were around a holiday and all.

    -Awesome call Wave! -Thanks for the analysis LC, it was very informative. -Vol, when is that quote from? -Pekelo, when you mean dragon break, I assume you mean breaking up right? Re-couped most of yesterday's losses, though I was caught short @ 914 and rode it all up to 920+, bad move :(...

    I guess I hitched a ride with those BOYZ, cauz I'm flat as a pancake. Holding some NQ shorts, and I guess I'll step back with NQ unless I see something real good. Today's pace was horrifyingly slow, which makes me dread the summer trading...

    So far (at least on the NQ), they're pulling the same pattern they did to print new highs: on the 15-min, 2 green bars, consolidate inside the upper one, 2 green bars, consolidate, rinse, repeat. Edit: NQ 15-min since 10:30 this morning. We'd need a break below the 900 on the ES to get...

    If anything, today looks like a step-up-day (SUD); consolidate, break up, consolidate, break up... Can we get a meltdown now? I'd settle for a 10pt drop, but I wouldn't say no to closing the gap below.

    Short 1 NQ @ 1388.50, what was that pop? Now if the ES could drop 10 pts from here, I'd be happy....
