    1-2 ES points a day

    Fearless Nice description. This is pretty much what I am trying to do. As to entry I watch the dom and tick chart on Buttontrader and try to enter just as the bid/ask appears to be getting taken out. Any info on your entry technique would be appreciated.

    Thx. I was referring specifically to the middle r2r on Spydertraders ES chart. I thought a r2r was decrasing red followed by increasing red so find this a bit confusing.
