    Anyway, the last 4 times we had a green FOMC day - the next day traded higher and all days were green. If this dips into the Close - I might be tempted to take a long overnight for a 5600 touch tomorrow. 45 minutes left, so it can still hit today. Maybe a weak consolidation tomorrow before...

    The day is not over yet, but the "photoshopped" chart I posted in the quote above is looking eerily similar to today's actual chart. LOL. 12 points shy.

    If we repeat last month's session we can drop from here. Came 24 points within a target which seemed almost impossible this morning, so probably best to not push it. Overall a huge day for me. Probably the best ever. Like last time I'll probably keep the number to myself in order to not stir up...

    Flat at 62 for 10 points.

    Lock in 10 points here at 62. Waiting for the HOD pop. EDIT: Make that 60. Just in case.

    Lock in 3 points at 55. If we get up to the current highs I'll lock in 10 points as those may very well be sold like last month. HODL for 5600 if we get moving.

    Fizzled out a bit. Moving stop to B/E at 52. Worth the gamble if we get moving. But that's what it is at this point. A gamble. :)

    Move stop to 50 and ready to trail. Don't think I'll be adding, but holding for 5600 if it gets moving.

    Longed 52 with a 10 point stop. Small size.

    Yes. I won't hate myself if it spikes to 5600 post FOMC because risk management is the most important thing in this game. Cowboys don't last and this is only one trade. If we see a hard spike down I may enter long on a breakout higher, but I do not think I'll chase a spike higher as that's...

    Seems like low liquidity random and elastic moves. Not worth the risk unless one is trading micros. :)

    Scratched it for one point of profit.

    Longed 45.50. Stop at 42.

    Just noise and bots picking each other's pockets here before FOMC. :) Went flat at 55 on that long. Huge day. Enough that I may take a gamble post FOMC after the dust settles. An overreaction to 5545/40 for a long could be a good entry. Depends on where we're at by the release. If it...

    Okay. So, FOMC last month saw an instant 14 point downmove with that I imagine was considerable slippage. I'm probably going flat into that release unless I should be 20 points in the money by then - which seems unlikely by now. Might be stuck here until then. PS: The prior releases were more...

    27 points shy. FOMC can easily push it up there, no?

    ES Journal - 2023/2024

    Part of the reason I asked about the FOMC reaction is that I'm contemplating if I should hold long into the release or not. Currently on my 3rd long at 51 since 10:55 and will stop out B/E. If I'm 10 points in the money by the release I may take my chances. I'm up pretty big already today, so...

    Any thoughts on the FOMC reaction today? Non-event?

    Prior HOD held. With the risk of stating the obvious - the market's breaking out. :) 50 could be that final hurdle, though. If that doesn't stall it, this should get even more squeezy.

    Should be interesting to see if there's an attempt to take this down on the Open. I'm vary of being over-confident, so trailing tightly on any position I may have on (not posted, so probably shouldn't share it). 5600 does seem like the target for today, though. My view is that most of the...
