Cool. Let's see how it plays out. The weekly pattern I'm anticipating is dip today and possibly tomorrow before an end of week rally into NFP. That's purely based on general statistics, so I'm not uber-confident on that basis alone. But that's the general roadmap for now. :)

Lock in 17 points here at 60. And flat as I was writing that for 17 points. Think we hit 50, though.

Lock in 67.

B/E on the short. Take it off around 60, although I think it can hit 50.

Took a 4 point loss and switched short at 77.

Slightly surprised we didn't back fill more of Friday's move on this leg down. I can see 5250 if this breaks today. If not, probably basing for a move back to mid-range around 94. Most likely a boring consolidation day, no? NFP week in June tends to rally into NFP, but can't rule out a dip...

What's your budget? There seems to be a ton that offer such services, but since you require 'profitable', I'm not sure how many meets that requirement.

Rationale? Markets tend to make the weekly high on NFP or the day prior. At least in June.

Awesome! What convinced you of the short side? I came in way too bullish this week, but finally embraced the short side today.

Exactly. IMHO, day trading doesn’t make sense if you’re not crushing it or at least making significantly more than you would just by buy and hold or swing trading. What’s weighed down on me the last years is that you actually have to sit down in front of the screens for hours on a daily basis...

Covid was a market crash. First down. Then up. Not a relevant comparison. We’ve had lower volatility at lower prices for longer in the past for sure. Around 2012 or so was really, really quiet.

Sounds like you already made up your mind. The mind works in mysterious ways. If you're tired of trading now, you might just get what you really want and win by losing. Then you won't have to do it anymore. Maybe it's better to take a break and resume it at a later point if you even feel like...

Another uptick on the VIX, but RTH conditions are still pretty poor for trading. 21.25 point range so far. Of course, we're spoiled on the ranges over the last few years. 20 points would have been excellent some years back.

Stonks only go up. Must be why. :) I just checked and it's down here, too. No updates since 10:45.

5.25 point loss. Range bound mess. Flat and watching for now. Very interesting if this continues to drop.

Filled. Avg. is 70.25. Targeting a break higher here, but not much happening yet. Putting stop on entire position at 65. Will put stop at B/E if we make new RTH highs.

Orders to add at 71 and 72. LFG, bulls! :)

Long again 67.50. 3 point stop. Looking to add if this pops. Target is 5290/5300.

Flat B/E. Looking for long re-entry.

Added one at 70. Avg. 67.75. Stop on entire position at 65.75.
