Taking repeated stabs at the long side here with small size. Adding if we breakout higher. Market moving too fast to be posting trades. But looking for a bottom here and a move back to 40.

Very elastic moves.

Flat B/E. Looks like it can turn into an Outside Day from here, but don't have confidence to short this here. Went long again 26.50. Small stop. EDIT: Stop at B/E.

Stop at B/E. May add. Just looking for 40 at this point. Maybe HODL if we pop through.

Possible bounce area, though. Trying a light long at 25.75. 4 point stop. Add later if we reverse.

Wow. 36 points straight down in 25 minutes. 1st 30-minute candle engulfing almost the entire weekly range so far. That's not something you see often. This isn't technical trading as it's slicing through all levels like a knife in hot butter. Not touching this yet. Could definitely be a trend...

Wrong so far. Sold off more than anticipated. Ready to re-enter around 30 if that area holds around 10:00. If not, this day could actually sell off...

Stopped for 1.5 points loss.

L 43.50. 3 point stop.

Stopped for a 4 point loss. Ready to re-enter, but may get the full gap close first.

Diamond hands, buddy.

4 point stop. Add above 50. May be too early...

Long 47.50.

Excellent. The market's dipping. 50 would be even better for a long. Not going to be greedy today. A move back to 70 would be enough. Have to be prepared for the short side, too, but not the main scenario at this point. Let's see what happens on the Open in a few minutes.

Ah. I see. By that, I simply mean I'm so bullish that I can get blinded towards seeing the short side which in fact was the most profitable trade yesterday. I traded plenty short 4-5 weeks ago when the market was correcting. Generally, I like to play in direction of the larger trend, so, when...

Could you clarify your question? Which comment do you refer to?

Main play today is to BTFD on the RTH Open. The tricky part is that we may not get much of a dip, but a 10 point dip would be nice. There's a chance this could revert back down, so have to be prepared for that as well, but from my POV it's less likely.

Well, that may be true, but my point is that the OP would have much better chances at receiving any help if his original post had a different angle and attitude. At the end of the day, this is simply a message board. If anyone is expecting to be handheld and mentored for free, maybe they're...

I don't know if it's easier said than done to be honest. Just keep it technical and leave the political discussions and convictions for after market close is my advice. :)

Could be. It's of no consequence to me. Maybe we're in disagreement there, but you have to admit that he has a point and is kind of funny. But like I pointed out to him/her quite a few times the market is still volatile enough that you can still fail tremendously on the long side if you're...
