    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    I think it's everyone's guess at this point. Regardless of all gaps below and a near vertical rise - the trend does remain up for now and shorts on higher time frames have been ruthlessly punished so far. If the markets indeed are irrational, that may persist for quite a bit longer. It...

    I bet a long from 3205 with a stop @ 85 could be a fantastic swing long from here. I'm not taking it, though.

    That's the range. And this range is either a consolidation before the next push higher or it's a top in the making. I think we're good for another good push higher, but admittedly not more than an uneducated guess at this point.

    What's a worthwhile daily take on the e-mini S&P 500?

    Keeping track of points per contract proves difficult when trading more than one contract. Two problems present themselves and I only expect these to become worse as I add even more contracts. a. Different trading size throughout the day skewing the points per contract statistic If you net 10...

    Which eSignal data packages for intraday charts?

    It does look good. Seems like a lot have happened since I last took a look. Still, for the OP's needs, it's possible Ninja can do the same cheaper if he's only interested in basic charting and nice charts.

    Which eSignal data packages for intraday charts?

    Never really heard much about eSignal in these last years. Is it still an up-to-date/competitive platform? Just briefly checked the website now and it seems their platform is completely updated from last time I checked. Will you be executing from your charts too or could you possibly use your...

    Bummer. Did you re-enter...? I had hit my daily quota and then some on that last stop-out, so decided to let it go since I had closed down the shop pretty much. But I've had some luck lately by re-entering immediately after a stop-out if what transpires after the stop-out convinces me I'm...

    I know some people feel that way, but for me it's always been the other way around. Care to elaborate?

    An edge is when there’s more money in your account at the end of the day, week, month and year.

    I've had stops 1 tick away from the market which weren't triggered, so I don't think anyone is out to get me. :) 3200 is an important level of interest. I was hoping it would hold, but knew that 99 was likely on an overshoot. Then again - if 99 printed, maybe we'd trade back down to the LOD...

    I'll give it to 3201, but that's all they're getting. I'm really confident in a move to 3230, but should not go much lower than this for that to happen. EDIT: Make that 3199. Last resort. And flat on the final one @ 3199. Unbelievable if I actually got low ticked there. Might simply have...

    Flagging. Might pull back all the way down to 3200 and still go higher on the day, IMO.

    I'm trying to scale out for once. Got stopped out on a trailing stop with 4/5 units @ 3212. Will hold the last one to 3229 with a stop @ 3205.

    For what it's worth, I did re-enter. Not going to get greedy on this one, so will probably exit at 3215 unless we blow right through. If so, might be worth holding all the way to 3230.

    What's your position and when will you bail? That 90 level sure got defended on this first attempt.

    Scratched if for + 2 ticks. May re-enter long, but probably not time to post.
