Here is ES 4000v chart with perfect illustration of an early trend entry that Anek proposed.
I prefer to use a tape in this retracement area - looking for active buying and placing a stop order to buy a one tick above each bar in that new forming leg.
Several techniques may be helpful to identify eligible area:
- number of bars, for example less that 4 or 5, etc
- closing above 1/3 of the previous swing or maybe 1/2...
Net Gain $30 on the NQ. Was down over $200 at one point so happy with end result. Last five sessions have been tough on me but I am sticking to my guns.....expecting a large up day(s) soon
