Your time stop was accurate and I was too agressive. weak up move was indicated as the 20 ema trendline indicated the trend was still down. Have a great weekend.

I am developing system for YM that appears encouraging on all markets including equities. The YM today produced 5 .....20 point runs this morning if early entry system is employed. trades with trend only...started as intraday system and evolved to all time frames.... . .....I fully respect your system and the time factor involved. As I noted previously your system whipped mine on a retracement move that I took as a trend reversal, although the long term trendline was against me. Emotions still plague my being as successful as I wish to be. I am currecntly settled on 10 minute chart just as matter of choice. Just bored @ noon and feeling chatty. Happy Trading
