System back up. Heart stops when that happens. I took a photo of my chart so I would have my levels in case I had to go to my phone app (but it sucks). Want to see a close above that trendline before I think about moving my stop up. I have a bad habit of moving stops. I'm typing it here to...

More of a tail than I'd like on that candle, but it didn't tag a PP or a fib - it tagged a trendline you could draw of the PM lows before the breakdown at ~6:30. Not surprised it got a reaction there, but I don't typically trust those for reversals... And now my broker's connection seems to be...

In long at 87.75, which is not the fill I wanted, but I kind of panicked at the opening because I had stochastic alignment for a bull move, and I was sort of second-guessing my game plan. Want to see a strong bull close of the 8:45-9:00 candle.

Mixed signals coming into the opening. Waiting to see if I get an EMA crossover before the opening. Then looking for 2-sided day with a short after 9:00 and a reversal from around the PM low. If no crossover, my pattern for that setup is basically already broken so will have to consider more...

May still need to work on patience. No new all-time high today so playing safe exiting where I did. Seems slow. But pulled back to 38% fib of opening range so we'll see.

Out at 2292.50. 5-min chart overbought, and selling tail on 15-min. If I'd frontrun 2294.25 2 ticks could have possibly filled, but unlikely. Out with small small profit. 2.3R. I am not comfortable shorting at the moment, but I do think a tradeable reversal at -100% is happening. Just...

Have moved stop to 1 pt behind -62% fibs and 1 tick behind R2... Waiting to see how 15-min closes at -100%. But none of the days like this (granted small small sample) have hit HOD until 11:30 or later...But they had got to all-time high by now...

In long at 2285.50. I think I need to put a note in my rule re: not needing to front run fibs. An analysis of days when I didn't fill in January was pointing to perfectionist tendencies of wanting to hit a level precisely and not accounting for a day with a fast reaction where it would turn a...

This morning my system was signaling long at yesterday's LOD. I was good about considering a pivot that was right under my entry location and how ES had acted around it instead of blindly taking the LOD, and fortunately my normal stop size encompassed both so was clean entry without having to...

So this morning my plan was to go long at the opening, stop at 2280.75. I did per plan, but I was a bit blinded by my excitement that ES could get back into the balance of a few days ago. Target was lows of Jan 27, ~2287. Instead, it banged its head on the absolute low of the balance, which...

Have never posted on a trading forum before, but I have no local traders to talk to, family and friends who don't understand what I do/am trying to do. And the traders I know from other forums all do momo day trading and think ES is impossible. I am up/down. Good discipline re: size, but I fall...
