    Poor judgement last night. I will trade with you on this. I got a little greedy as over the past two weeks has gone almost flawless. Today has put me back in my place. Plus I don't want to confuse / mess up the thread. I guess we will just have to wait a little longer.

    Backtesting is great and all, but it doesn't beat real money testing. I've been trading since 2000 (part time for most of it) and all 8 years have been positive and 7 out of the 8 years beating all the major indicies. I have beaten the indicies with risk adusted returns as well. This is in...

    I was expecting more trades...but unfortunately none so far. I'm going to play around with MACD crossovers at these higher time frames of 240m and Daily. Daily momentum looks to be stalling and moving back towards a crossover as well. Long YM 12302 (1 contract) Stop 12252 Target...

    I let a good sized profit get away :( I was looking for my second target of 1370 (previous trade) but never got close. Better than a loss though. 1355.75 +2 ticks. Flat for now.

    Closing out here at 1359, RSI put in a top at 2pm EST. This is why I like scaling out, as at least I got one target hit.

    Yesterday's open is now huge resistance, nice call f9. Once it broke, huge downside. Third test and you can see the selling is drying up quicker on a 5 min chart. Also Dow is leading us up for the day. If we break to the upside here are we going to see a lot of buying? I'm in there right...

    Stop back on at 1347, came within 1 tick overnight but not close to catastrophic. We shall see what happens today, but trade setup still looks good.

    Long here as well, 1356.25, 3 contracts. Just got back in front of the computer and see a nice RSI setup on the 15 and forming on the 30 and 60. Stop at 1339 (catastrophic). Once market opens, I will be moving it to 1347. I'm due for a stopout and I'm sensing it might be here. My gut is...
