Actually, I did not. I did however buy the morning low and sell close to the high (stopped out on a trailing stop). ;) The day did play out differently than I expected. But I felt it was appropriate to give you a little nudge since you were fairly harsh towards those calling a short at that...

And your analysis says...? Turned out to be a pretty good short.

You need to recognize the pattern for the day ahead, IMO. Today is so far a strong trend day up and those days tend to be a one-way street from the Open to the High and/or Close. They're not due for a down since that's not part of the pattern for these particualar days. ES and NQ is moving...

I don't see any ceilings on any time frame until a fair bit higher than this. At this point in time - this is a strong trend day up which is following the script as expected. 2910-15 is the target for today.

Specifically why is it due for a 'down'?

Slowly inching higher with shallow pullbacks and a few 'scary' red bars to lure people into shorting this.

As long as we hold above 90 - I think there's a good chance we'll print 2910 + today. Maybe 2913.

Excluding commissions, 3 x 10 points and a 30 point stop is the same if you're trading the exact same # of contracts. Sure. But when you say you're adding at subsequently higher levels AND went in with 10X size at your initial stop 40 points lower than we're at now it does not seem like the...

Strong Open. I'll also agree that we're likely to revert to Friday's Close by tomorrow's Open. If we open gap up at/above Friday's High on the RTH Open, I think we can have another solid up day. If opening flat - I think we'll see a sideways/down day capped by Friday's High. Initial...

The thread is 2 years old and yes - I went for 2 x 24 already. : ) So, I have 2 x 24" in addition to my laptop screen. I'm doing just fine with that, but would in fact benefit from an additional screen.

What is 10X size? Does this mean that your stop at 58 was ignored and that you're holding that trade while multiplying initial bet size with 10 at the price you were supposed to stop out on? And in your third post you're adding even more? The way this looks to an outsider is that you can't...

I'm surprised if experienced traders are surprised by this up move. How is this price action any different than what we've seen in the most recent past? The first significant leg up after the last top last year was at + 212,25 points. This leg up (bottom to top) is currently at + 157,50...

Nothing is ignored, nor am I saying we won't trade lower on the daily. I'm merely observing that your stop is at a key technical level which is likely to get hit on this leg up. If you want to use a 30 point stop, you might as well use a 40 point stop on this one.

I think your stop is likely to get hit if we trade higher, but also think it's likely that we can have a turn in that area.

Someone's head and shoulder is someone else's inverse head and shoulder... Open gap above at 2857,50. Can see that as a preliminary target for this leg up on the daily.

Not sure if you’re serious, but okay. :)

Nice job! Now keep repeating that. :) How many contracts are you swinging per trade?

You need data. Not screenshots.

Huh? :)

Screen shots, huh? You're more wrong than you know.
