ES is so volatile that the trade can go 2 points against you and then a minute later 2 points in your favor. I do a few trades with ES with steady outcomes. 930-945 opening range breakout 10am reversal 3pm reversal 15 min range breakouts I love how volatile the ES is

It didn't happen today, I doubt it happens tomorrow. What news can really move it downward coming out tomorrow? I see tomorrow as a buying opportunity for many, but maybe I'm too optimistic ;)

COMMENCE THE SELLOFF!

I'd like to see the Dow <13,000 by the end of today! Let's make it happen! Someone call in a bomb threat somewhere! ;) I joke, about the 2nd part anyway.

If you're a good trader, the commission fees shouldn't matter that much. I called my broker and he lowered my e-mini commission from $6 to $5.50 for me. Just call your broker and ask.

exactly, i don't go with the fixed loss target if it goes a little in my favor initially, or if it goes against me, then back closer to be, i move the stop. I'd rather get out at -4tics than stick around for 10 more seconds and get stopped at -1. You have to be quick that's why most trades...

Anytime the thing goes against me but doesn't stop me out at -1pt, I get ready to move the stop. In this case I moved it to +.1 and i was fortunate enough to get the move to .3 because I moved quickly. Typically I would've been out with .1 but I got lucky that time. Hope that helps...

Better yet, take what the market gives you and be thankful. Remember this: Bears make money. Bulls make money. Hogs get SLAUGHTERED! Don't be a hog.

exactly, this is a marathon not a sprint. Many people who are 1 for 3 do far worse than -1 tic. FAR worse Maybe you should try the ER2 instead...

All it will take is that one day when you are on the wrong side of a huge move with too many positions in and it's hello margin call. Trust me, it's not wise. He should consider himself lucky, take his winnings, and spend some time on a strategy. Try the 15-min range breakout method for a...

Xi: Are you trailing the stop as it moves into positive territory from negative, like from -5 to +2, set it to +1 so it can't go back against you, or are you hitting the stop too quickly? Anytime the trade goes against me first, I move the stop if and when it moves into my favor, to +1 tic

I can testify to this. It is a better idea to cut your losses and get out, instead of going into hope mode. Not only that, but you'll hit a margin call liquidation if it keeps going against you, then you can't stack the positions. Why not try reversing your position, luck is on your side...

The elections are rigged, Clinton/Obama in the WH 2008, since it is the opposite of the current puppet regime (white republican guys) a lady and a black guy for the stage, but behind the curtain everything stays the same.... There is no significant difference between Democrat or...

1 for 3 with 0pts isn't that bad all things considered.
