    FWIW, just need to say that it makes me a little sick that I bought 4 ticks from the low yesterday at 70.50, and got a whole 1.00 point out of it. Not as sick as I'd be if this were like the volatility we had last year and it was up 40 or 50 points, but still, 3 points max pullback in the whole...

    Which breadth reading? NQ be damned; I wonder if NQ traders pay such close attention to ES as ES traders to do NQ? I often see NQ diverging a little bit from ES, in the depth of swings anyway; sometimes ES goes with it, sometimes it goes with ES, so I pretty much just keep my eyes on ES, since...

    Bearish flags? Maybe you can post a chart. All I see is up. What I see is a break north out of the accepted value from last week (70ish to 78ish, per my last chart posted). Still below last week's high (by a couple of ticks now), but breaking out of that is quite objectively, if I may...

    Not convincing :) Looks like chop suey to me.

    Still in balance, though acceptance seems to be shifting higher. http://screencast.com/t/6Uer1mg2q4mP

    Even if I were holding my short now I wouldn't feel good about it -- but talk about a good fill, 76.50 on the nose. Market just in consolidation, involving as many people on both sides as it can, and then it will move when enough on one side hit their pain tolerance. I don't want to pick...

    What about buying 50% of the current move, setting up for new highs? (73s)

    I asked and was directed to the CME globex opening procedure for anyone interested, per my question last night. Thanks fishing by the way for the good info: http://www.cmegroup.com/rulebook/CME/I/5/73.html

    You should keep a list of Trvl sayings--so far today you've covered religion/football (hail mary) and the arctic (seals). What will be next?? :cool:

    71 is the midpoint of last week's trading, and earlier we did dip below the concentration of established value and have re-entered. So, a revisit to the highs (77s) is logical (and was the basis for my long trade that I am no longer in now). However, until it makes a move out of the range...

    nontrend / neutral day so far... 11% below 20d median volume pace, IB range extension 10% up, 35% down, currently inside y-VA, inside IB. No real conviction from OTF. Best for me to watch.

    I'm out 71.50, +1.00 may regret it, but I can't ignore what I see; if I'm right, it was a good choice, if I'm wrong, then I still followed my read and will look to improve the read in the future.
