Cancelled, was not filled anyway. edit: don't like canine urine on my legs. :)

Watch and learn, ma'am :) (just playing around) Limit 1794.75 not filled, too far back in the queue.

might not get hit, should have used the 1118.5 res. on russell mini? we shall see. 1794.75 order still active for the time being.

Shortly as in today's RTH?

ask 1794.75, current HOD 1793.75

watching 1118.5 on russell mini as poss. line in sand

I don't know what was in my cryo sludge, but when I thawed, I wanted to knit!

Watching that uptrend line for the rest of this week. Closer look:

re: Spreading -- thanks. re: Risk -- You know, you are clearly right. Small traders need to know that their only hope is to take huge risks, lay it all on the line, and be responsible for their oversized bets. And, go back to their Customer Service job at Geico if they are not 'chosen'.

Ok, point well taken. Should have clarified what was originally meant: "Stop predicting" == "Stop trying to predict the exact extreme of an extended one-sided move" :)

Are you ok?

If you say so :)

Ok, this is the part that isn't clear. The strategy you originally described seemed to still be directional. (paraphrased, if I understood it correctly: Take a full directional position at a single price level, scale out of a loss, possibly holding a chunk indefinitely even as it continues...

Ok, thanks for your response. Yes, buying something that is already going up is something I am trying to work on for my own trading. Worst case draw down of 100% is illogical, IMHO. (As is any substantial drawdown, for that matter). I did this in the past with my risk capital and it is...

Just hoping to avoid an unrelated semantics discussion which has surely been beaten to death by a golf club in the historical posts on this forum, and hoping for responses to my four inquiries in my previous post. And, your method of response is still non-constructive. Please kindly provide...

Ok, just want to make sure your described strategy is clear to me. I had just glanced at it previously and it just struck me as overly risky when I read the part about 'substantial drawdowns', so admit to not fully reading it through. 1) "And everything is always spread, so I can survive any...

Got it, and you are the one advocating taking large positions. Riight. Yes, I got burned trying to predict: my ideas were correct, but the timing stunk, and the position size was too large / stop loss too tight. It's just one strategy of many, anyhow. The idea was fairly simple, it would...

Anyone have any thoughts or experiences to share with counter trend trading against a main winning position? e.g. -- establish a longer term winning long position in, say, ES. Counter trend trade the short side with NQ or YM. Just an idea to mitigate risk and FUD with being primarily a...

Thought this was a 'Swing Trading' approach. 20 ES at perf. bond $4,510 = $90,200 :) edit: ok, see your edits, got it. You have big paper cajones!

PA this week seems important. Watching that uptrend line on NQ. There are others, but this one is in play. Still in the upward channel which we tested successfully again this morning. (was asleep, boo). Grind sideways with an upward drift early this week?
