    so far 78 contracts on MNQ but only done that one time. hit 45 and 55 a few times though. it's not always easy to get limit orders filled with that size, so there's always that to take into account.

    Here's an example of one of my charts (they're all the same). Nothing fancy. Just a regular candlestick chart with EMA(20), prior day high/low, and Floor Pivots (S1,2,3,PP,R1,2,3). I watch the 5, 15, 30, 60 minute charts plus Daily, and try to trade the highest time frame possible. I have...
