    At minimum, a lower high/lower low bar on at least the 3- or preferably 5-minute chart. You must've misread my post. I was stopped out on my 3-tick stop; a 4-tick stop would have kept me in play. Happens. Looking to re-enter short. Beautiful bear flag breakout just occurred, but due to...

    I haven't developed the tactical skill to get filled at the absolute highest tick. I'm happy if I can get in within a "tight stop's tolerance" of the high. We're talking about potentially big moves here, not scalping a point or two. At the moment, I'm seeing a bunch of things suggesting...

    Apex, what do you expect will happen with bonds during all this? Major "flight to quality" and anticipation of Fed loosening? If so, looks like US could rise to 110, and if it breaks through resistance there, to 114. (Now low 107s.) On my 60- and 240-minute charts, RSI shows ES only...

    Took profit at 1564.50 for +2.25. One tick more than I needed. Currently flat. Might be done for the day.

    Re-entered long one unit at 1562.25 with 3-tick stop (with apologies to B1S2). EDIT: Stop now at breakeven and trailing up. (I need 2 more points profit to make my daily goal.)

    I must be blind, but I just don't see what justifies a short here. Since everyone else seems to see it, will someone please elucidate me?
