    Ya I know, I do that at times especially countertrend. I know I am wrong with that tight of stop so I can take several losses without taking a large drawdown. Im all about position sizing with low risk entries going for high reward.

    Missed by 20 pts.... When countertrend trading I suggest waiting for the maximum possible entry so your risk is always way less then your reward. It also allows for you to know when your wrong right away rather then getting chopped up and then see it go your way once you cant take it...

    buying 1501.25 on a stop stop below pivot if filled. 1500 must hold for this to be active

    Here we go.. .it held resistance as expected and this is the key test right here at 1500.. . great place for a reversal buy if it holds. Dont just buy blindly into this.

    Yep I agree, we are at the key price for es right at 1504.25 if it holds we most likely get a retest of the LOD. A breakout above most likely grind higher throughought the day up to 1508.75 I use a very similar strategy with my scalping as well around higher level SR.

    My post stated it was a buy stop to get out of the trade. The market never traded to my buy stop therefore I was still short. I trailed it down and was exited at 1499.50 I trade units to maximize profits ie 1 unit = 25-50 contracts
