Today was a good day for me. When there is this much opportunity it shows you can still make profits without perfect execution (to say the least) I was happy with my discipline today as I went in with no bias and just tried to trade the AHG, TL and triangle rules, setting the correct stops and bailing when they were wrong.
I left a lot on the table and exited too early more than once but took home quite a bit as well. 11 trades, 3 longs all profitable 12.25 points and 7 shorts, 6 wins 1 loss + 19.50 for a total today of 31. 75. Chart attached, comments and questions requested.

Congratulations. Quite impressive. Please excuse my noobie questions.

I understand most of your trades ie symm triangle BO and a box BO (could also be traded as a DT) but I am a bit puzzled about what looks like a short around around 9:30 and a long around 10 o'clock. Could you explain the rationale behind those 2? Again congrats on a wonderful day!
 
Short at 9:30 was an AHG short 4th HL on the way down. the next trade was a countertrend long based on the down channel. Played for a small profit until the small up TL was violated

Nice work Shep!

Thanks for the chart!
 
Does anyone here know where to get an indicator for ninjatrader that plots the privous day's high, low, and close, and then morning of will plot the open for today.

Ninja has one built in, but its not even close on the settlement price and the high and low are off too.
