I had 3 trades, I think my only mistake was brining down my stop on my 1st trade which was short. Once it went 15 ticks in my favor, I brought the stop down so I would at least make 5 ticks, and I got stopped out at just a small profit, then the trade went to my BE point before falling down hard.
I then took a scalping profit later on long CL, and should have taken at least 10 ticks, but I got scared and got out sooner.
At the same time I had an ES long position that was not moving more than .50 either direction. Now that I was profitable I brought up my stop. Amazing, the ES actually went up after stalling for awhile. My ES trade was with the bullish trend and with an indicator which I only believe works if I right about the trend.
So now the trade was going in my favor and had broken resistance, I set my stop to BE since at this point this is my last trade, and I want to get out at a profit for the day. I was watching CNBC and it looked like my target got hit, but I missed it by .25 and it was starting to go back against me, so I set my target to .25 below what I wanted, and watched CNBC saw more, then checked and my target finally got hit. Now this is a scalping target for the ES, but I felt I went to war there and won.
