    Catching the right train

    I wouldn't want to put money on any trader who spends the closing hour posting here :D

    Yeah biotech gave ample number of upticks to short this morning -- may your trades continue to be as easy as you say! SOX pulling us down now, giving a decent signal to short the right-shoulder on the NQ, with downside target to today's lows.

    Yeah, its a trade based on the daily chart, using the 5 min as an entry point. My stop is much wider than a typical intraday trade.

    I don't mind if people post trades that they can come back and delineate how and why those trades were initiated, but if you're more of a scalper based on T&S and level2, then I think it would be better if we split journals. But it's nice to know some people are reading :) Not much by...

    Short Housing

    One of my father's friends wants to sell his house now and rent for a few years to sidestep the drop -- that's the new trade, short your own home! Imagine if an entire neighborhood agreed to doing this simultaneously :) One lady to another at tupperware party: "Bear raid, anyone?"

    Yeah TA, certain days it feels like I'd could do better throwing the level 2 out the window :D There will be times when this strategy can find low-risk entries for home run trades, and my preference is to risk the small profit for the larger move -- just not finding my rhythm as of yet...

    Hopefully the trading results will catch up to my chart-making skills sometime soon :( Any advice and criticisms you guys can offer on any aspect of this strategy -- entries/exits, stops, time horizons -- please feel free to comment. For example: "Dude, you're just market maker fodder!"...

    Net totals: INTU -.05 EBAY -.03 ERTS +.35 VRTS -.18 Net for day: +.09 What a week to start posting. Divergence trading doesn't seem to be the ideal way to capitalize on a whipsaw, program-driven market -- or am I just rationalizing? Speaking of rationalizing . . .
