5min/1h TrendFollowing on ESTX50, SMI, & GBL

Quote from ranger64:

that was a nice entry, what made you decide to go short at 8370? the fact that it closed the gap to the bottom of the previous day?

Momentum was down in 30min charts.
Got in while it was correcting up in 5min charts (low risk entry). I didn't even look at the gap.
That's all. I am using a momentum strategy.
No way to know when it will give a good trade or not. I just have to take all of them and see...
 
ESTX50 out 1 @ 3832, -1 pt.
(let's not get too greedy here... everybody can see the downtrend by now, and it seems we may correct higher.)
Still holding 1 short from 3859.
