ES should print 4445/50 today.

No need to get defensive. I was afraid you would, so I was hesitant if I should make that post. I didn't make any claims on my own part, either. Just pointing out the potential vulnerability of your system (as Pax did). Good luck.

Interesting. When was that? I'll emphasize one thing. Note the bold part in what I wrote: Even if you know what to do, you'll often find that as a discretionary trader you may not always be able to do it. Trading is rigged against human nature. We want to be right and we're willing to gamble...

No, not always, just mostly... :) I think that's why Al Brooks also is the master of annotating yesterday's chart, but uncertain/indecisive in his live chat (from what I've been told). It's very easy to fool oneself in trading - especially as the charts look very different at bar X from the...

First of all, I commend you for sticking your neck out with a real time call/trade. Now, your summary above highlights one of the problems with the discretionary price action approach as there always seems to be a good argument for price going either up or down and it all boils down to how you...

I expressed the same concerns back in August as you seem to cap the upside, but are willing to go deeply red intraday in order to recover and end the day green (for a small profit). So far, it seems to work out great, but there's the concern that one day you'll face that outlier day where...

Thank you for your honest reply, @zghorner. Honestly, I was a bit worried by your first post as you seemed to read too much into one week of trading and because you doubled your account rather quickly which suggests both potentially too much risk and an element of luck. That said, your...

Nicely done. How did the second week go?

The bullish constipation is a classic.

Update of the chart posted earlier below. The market seems to have various modes and moods. These last two weeks have been bull mode in hyper drive. While such strength may be rare, it has most certainly happened many, many times before.

He has a big mouth, but knows shit about shit. With a very nasty and unpleasant personality.

I just want to know if you really took the trade even if it was in simulator. Not asking for a broker statement. That would be some proof that this methodology has merit.

LOL. Good belly laugh every time I read that one. Not that long ago since you said trading was going very well though and that it was easy?

Okay, let’s leave it at that, but most certainly you’re advocating his approach. Regardless, I just don’t understand why you will spend the time to create a drawing of a trade instead of showing the executions. And when asked to, you refuse? I’ve posted a ton of charts showing actual entries...

Remove/blank out the size you're trading from the execution chart, then. Or show your fills with the QTY not showing. The way I see it, you're shilling for Al Brooks annotating a past chart with idealized entries and exits. Just like, eh, Brooks and any other vendor would.

Seems odd that you'll annotate a chart with entries/exits instead of just posting the executions. I showed an example above which was generated by a few clicks on my platform. But okay. :)

Here are my trades for the day. 1 scratch short. 1 short for a loss of 4 points. 1 long for 16 points. 1 scratch long. 1 long scalp for 3 points. Nothing fancy.

Instead of posting an annotated chart - could you post a chart showing entries and exits on your trading platform? Thank you. :)

I do that as well. I think a lot of us are just tired of all the smokes and mirrors and BS in the trading industry. I didn't create this thread. Just responding to it.
