    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    NQ/ES appears to be well in sync today. No divergences yet. Wouldn't be surprised to see another flush here.

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    Gap at 2849 filled. Could be a bottom for the day here. As of now, we're down -2,95 % at the lows. Worst down day so far in 2019, but had quite a few that were even worse in late 2018 and early 2018.

    Well, I for one hope you're right. And I certainly think we're due for more downside myself.

    Looking a lot like Friday so far... May take a short scalp from 74 if we stall there.

    One thing is to see it. Another is to trade it. Flat now. I think we can trade down to 2849 today and take care of that gap below. Not that far left.

    Getting some buy signals here, but no juice yet. Counter moves along this trend line keeps getting sold and the bounces are week.

    Double bottom ES. Higher Low on NQ.

    Agreed. Let's leave 'Why' to the talking heads in the financial media.

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    F**k. I was hoping we'd open stronger than this. Already tagged my 1st downside target and more. I'm hoping/anticipating a decent up move after the Open in order to enter a low risk short. Could be a nice long entry from the Open, but don't think I will play that one...

    Judging from the comments here, I was expecting worse. We're only down - 1,30 % from the close on Friday. Not exactly what I'll call a crash yet. That said, things are unfolding as anticipated and I think we have the potential of a - 3,00 % down day on Monday in RTH. No need to get emotional...

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    I think tomorrow, Monday, have the potential of great volatility and continued down side. Gameplan for tomorrow: 1. Open Gap Down - I'll be looking for a short entry, but we may first trade up to Friday's Low (13,50) or Close (32,00) depending on where we open. 2. Open Gap Up - I'll also be...

    I expect more downside for the week to come. Without further details... Both these structures came off all time highs. It does not quite satisfy the same weekly pattern, but the last time we made all time highs and closed lower it marked out a top in the market. October 2018. These are...

    It can be both - depending on your approach to trading. I prefer probabilities.

    Confidence Shattered in NT 8

    I remember when I first migrated to NT8 they had an issue with a lagging cross-hair. Who the hell has a lagging cross hair on their new state-of-the art platform? Not only that, but the problem had allegedly persisted for an entire year. I did eventually get fixed, but come on... Another...

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    Like you say in your next post; it does make a difference if someone is trying to mentor other people or otherwise influence people who don't know better. I actually received close guidance from someone when I was just starting out and while the advice he gave me was mostly reasonable and not...

    The S&P 500 topped at 3017.8

    Looking good so far. As of today's closing price, we're down - 3,22 % from the top on the ES. Any prognosis on when you expect the bottom? Do you think we'll see heightened volatility moving forward next week and the rest of August?

    What a glorious day in the US markets! :) Major swings today: -32.50, +20.00, -27.25, + 28.75, -18.00 for a total of 126.50 points. Hope you all managed to catch a little piece of that. Would be nice if we can sustain this volatility for a while longer. PS: Any of you Americans in the thread...

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    As far as I'm concerned - most people on ET are lying to some extent and I take what everyone says with a grain of salt. It can get annoying for example when B1S2 says the market never traded below a certain price for the remainder of the session (and it clearly did), but can't say I lose sleep...

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    We could very well trade up to 29-30 and still make new lows for the day later in the session. Technically, we're fairly overextended now and due for a countermove. 23,50 can be a potential pivot point. Either way, I'm done for the day. On holiday, actually, but this volatility pulled me back...
