    To be clear, I am a trader and its hard to post trades hours if not days beforehand sticking to that exact tick. Sometimes, I am posting realtime and the market is moving away from my entry as I am typing as well... I am only human and my trading comes first. That long on the 1st was most...

    The cme cancels all orders between 1:15-1:30pst everyday so what you said is not possible. It would be very hard to have 5,000 contracts ahead of of me.... However, I understand the point you are trying to make. That is why I moved almost all of my scalping over to the er2 when it started...

    Here is the reasoning behind my trade... a very powerful pattern when it occurs at certain levels. I am not going to go into much detail about how and when to use it. Just look at major drops and you will see this occur a lot. It carries a lot of psychology to it which makes the move very...

    Ok, ya I just dont understand how someone can scalp effectively when you have to give a tick slippage on the way in and out on every trade. The ES has to trade through your price to get filled. When you say scalping with velocity do you mean waiting for an impulse move and jumping on minor...

    Ya it went below by a point and then the immediate reversal... er2 has been finnicky lately. It signifies that a retest of this low is crucial. Ya I would have recommended 1504.25 to take profits or at least tighten your stop. Nice trade

    Thanks for the comments riaa. I use a lot of methods combined into one to derive my levels, a synergistic approach I woud call it. My charts look like a train wreck sometimes, thats just because I want to be looking at as much as I can one one chart rather then 5 charts on different timeframes...

    Nice... they did it again just barely missing my entry. I was able to get some on on a reversal entry but not nearly as big of a position that I wanted... Looking for a move to test 1515.. it is almost there and then 1518 where I will contemplate a short position for a massive downturn in...
