Maybe something WILL happen today...hmm.... SPX http://screencast.com/t/Z0oIVrKuFX

Looking to short if 76-77 has sellers again if tested... my premise is that this will continue to stay in range. edit: though, I would prefer to be a buyer for maybe a 5 to 7 point trade, instead of a seller for a 2 to 3. We are in the upper 50% of yesterday's range for all of today, and...

May have missed the long opportunity by a couple of ticks. The profile for this week shows where the interest clearly lies. http://screencast.com/t/V3eZcUQ3U7

In my continued attempts to look at the market objectively, logically, and NOT what I "hope" or "wish" would happen... We have a 22 point range this week. If we finish the week in this range (I cannot see why we would go outside of this range), and if the market closes around 75, we will...

nice job!

Well this morning I re-entered which was a good call. Other times I just miss out. I'm not really very good at re-entering, though this is one of my focuses for this year.

keeping an eye on 71.25 for a possible buy

Beautiful, had not even thought of this! I use chrome and just found an extension called "ChromeReload" that will do the trick I think! Thanks :)

Amen brother, I think it will be a lifetime of work for me; I can't stand to wait in line at a fast food place for more than 30 seconds, so trading has taught me a lot about the need to slow the hell down, because every time I don't it hurts my account big time!

Thank you, I actually just type very fast (about 100wpm when I get going) and reload the thread often.

Well, a tight stop does cause more stop-outs, but it also prevents what just happened in your case, namely, a fade gone wrong. I have found that if my trade needs more than 2 points to work, then I am 80% of the time simply off on the entry price or timing. A stop is where you are wrong on the...

Anything is possible, and it's certainly going that direction. But I'm betting my ego (and not my money) that given the day of the week, and the balanced, range-bound nature of the whole week so far, that we will stay in this range. All news accounted for, no new releases planned, etc...

What is the time period of your profile B?

Thanks but wish I had gone with my original premise of buying after an opening drive down. After I got out on the long scalp earlier, I was lulled into thinking that the next push down might not be the last, and though I saw buyers, I was a little skiddish, as I've been all week unfortunately...
