Its true at some point they will save it again. ECB was buying furiously Italian bonds today. But i have a feeling that you not selling off probably is a better decision. Who knows! Good luck.

out 43.75

long 43.5, stop 40, target unknown

i learnt a few tricks from you....happy that you found value in something that i had to offer :)

out 39.5

yes it is definitely a risk off day, however most of the markets have already covered their ATR during european session today. So a strong trend down (at least before 3 pm) is a smaller possibility , imo.

long 37.25, stop 35.25, target 39.25

no worries at all. mis-reading is not that uncommon with markets moving. cheers

thats exactly what i wrote....going to wait and see. thanks

short 42.75, covered 42.25 no more trades have traded heavily before RTH session....its going to cloud my judgement....taking a long break here unless something extremely attractive sets up

out 42.5....chickened out with all the selling witnessed in europe, even though it might have been a very low risk entry and ES might have run up to original target of 45.5

covered my AUD short at 1.0205. I am pretty positive it will end up lower, but typically I am a short term trader, and getting 160 pips in one day with full-size on is very good for me!!!! Another of my logic to cover now was employment report coming tomorrow. My logic is if the number is...

Hello, I ran into these issues myself sometime back, different bars different real time vs historical data, computer clock...very minute things but with potential huge impact. It is clear that you have muddled enough in the waters to go solo.....leave that friend behind and move on with your...

I see, i thought you are probably looking for a discussion, but it seems you are using ET crowd's view as a contrarian indicator. Your question didn't entail any response from others, and even if lets say 5 out of 5 people would have said they are not going long, I am not sure its a good enough...

why would anyone who can correctly analyze market go for long. The whole grind up was based upon a series of blunders being prevented from happening in Europe. Finally, the last rally happened yesterday after change of leadership in Italy. The way markets have sold during European session...

Another important point is - if you book partial profits at 15-20 points, it will lead to a smoother account equity curve compared to looking for larger swings. Larger profit targets exceeding 20 points will inevitably mean larger drawdowns.

what you are doing is not a bad strategy, you are trying to capture large multiday swings in the markets. My advise would be bring stop to b/e once you are 10-15 points in the money, so that if ES re-traces, at least you don't lose everything. Secondly, depending on the time horizon or price...

ok thanks for the link.
