Another 3 tick loss short........ sigh. I'm getting killed today.

anyone actually go long and make $ ? still can't believe we breached the 94.50 level today and held.

I shorted 97.50. held up throguh 1200, but exited at 1199. Couldn't take the heat any longer

You've got the 15 min 200ema at 1192.50..... and 4 hr 20 and 50 ema's at 1193ish and 1195ish..... I won't be buying at these levels. But, the 1 hr chart just gave a bullish red hammer. This PA could be turning over. But IMO, we've still got a LOT of buyers and sellers that need to exit...

my thoughts were in sunday nights post. Until we see a push over 94.50, I am not buying this... Planning on shorting somewhere btwn 92 and 94 if i can get a signal.

a lot of traders have left this forum. At least when I was around more often in 2008, there were a lot of great traders. Now they all have left.

hahaha, ooh sure thing

If you are a profitable trader that trades the ES...... Then you only really need a $5,000 account. Trade 2 contracts. Average 2 points / day. Thats $1,000 / week. Easier said than done OBVIOUSLY. But if you are consistantly profitable, this is easily obtainable with a $5k account.

Just my 10 cents here. Taking a look at the 4 hr chart, it seems as though we have our first taste at bearish PA in at least 3 months (2 straight wide spread down bars on the 4 hr chart) Looks like as long as we don't get a significant push over the 1193-1194.50 area tomorrow, the...

Would you care to explain why ? I'm curious as to why you're moving it. Price too bearish ? I take it you do not use predetermined support levels or pivots.

it was not meant to be disrespectful, sorry. I'm just curious. If you think its going down to 1208, why not short there ? then cover, and buy 1208 ?

u waited for 1208 all day, and u are only gonna take 1 point ? LOl seriously ?

is nobody trading today ? this thread is dead

not sure where we go here..... sitting on hands..... edit: looks like we might tag 1208.

Tomorrow shouuld make for some interesting action. A gap down tomorrow could cause further downward pressure as those that entered at 1210+ late Friday might be panic selling thinking they bought the top. On the otherhand, everyone is expecting resistance around 1215-1220. So you know...

Don't mean to be rude, but it sounds like your problem is that you can't trade.......nothign wrong with your rules........you just need to learn to pick good trades. Also, you haven't mentioned the ES once. I thought this was an ES journal ?

Joe, You hit the nail on the head here. I struggle with this all the time. I see decent setups but my need for perfection sometimes makes me pass up on great trades. Perhaps its because I still struggle with the terrible 2008 I had as a newbie giving away tons of $ to teh markets. It'll...

No posted blotter today. Didn't ge a chance to post until I got to work. +$11, + 1/2 ES point gross Had some problems today with the slow moving upward action. Hourly chart showed a great long from 1205 to possible HOD. But you think I'd hold that long ? no, my idiocy was staring at...

This is an ES journal. not a forex journal there bud

You are delirious. When this market trends up, it doesnt dip. Straight up to the moon.....eh, maybe even mars.
