Daytrading Breakouts in the ES

[dbphoenix]

Quote from WarEagle:

Ok, that is ENOUGH! Holy crap, you guys are a bunch of third graders. You wonder why every single post is not caught if it breaks the rules...it would be a full time job to play babysitter to you people. Grow up! What's done it done. JR left for his own reasons. To go home because you get pissed when someone feels a post is inappropriate is childish. JR was not (to my knowlege) banned. If you really want intelligent discussion, why is it so bad to ask people to behave in a professional manner? You guys think you have to treat each other like you did when you were 14. Good grief. EliteTrader is what you make it. If people want to come on here and act like idiots and then complain when they are held to the rules then it is their own fault and no one else's. This thread is to discuss JR's breakout method, not to fight with each other like my children do. The only reason we haven't deleted every post since this got derailed is because there are not enough hours in the day to keep up!

Now keep this thread on topic and stop your whining or I will close the thread. I do not want to be the bad guy here, but I have a job to do. Now act like the adults I know you are.

C'mon, WarEagle. This is baloney and you know it. For as long as I've been a member of ET, people have complained about disruptive posters and you guys do little or nothing about it. As a result, nearly every useful thread decomposes into drek like this. Instead, you get all a-flutter about language.

JR did not leave because someobody thought a post was inappropriate. He left because he was censured.

And, yes, his account is blocked. Did JR "act like an idiot"? Maybe. Are all idiots banned? Right.

If you want to close the thread, close it. There's hardly any point in keeping it open since the originator can't contribute to it and since you guys will do absolutely nothing to keep it on topic.

JR was censured and banned due to language. Seems it's the moderators who need to grow up.

Sorry about that, but i felt a little like stirring up the new establishment. I appreciate your comment.thx.

So, you just admit that you came here to start trouble? Well, at least you are honest about it.

But, still a loser who does not have anything constructive to lend to the board.

I am following kernan's lead. Thank you JR, and I am leaving this thread.

Excellent post. I could not say it any better.

Like those before me, I am done here. Thank you JR and others for your contribution.

And, Walther, Ditch, moderators, et cetera - good job ruining a good thread.

Especially for those who think this system is unprofitable. I took this opening signal, selling 5 at 1006.50 covering at 1002.75. I am done for the day and since it is 7:50am here on the west coast I am going to take a nap. $900 before going to work, not bad for an unprofitable system! Regards, Steve46

what am I missing here? How did you get triggered at 1006.5? I showed a trigger at 1005, at that there appeared some descrepancy between the indexes, messy etc. I didn't take it

To all subscribers:
Noticed a second sell signal at 7:55 am PST that is already profitable. Too bad I wasted my time posting to this thread. Like several others I am going to say "sayonara". Too bad this system is so unprofitable. Hope I don't go broke trading it. Regards, Steve46

see attached.

Would not have taken it, but i guess this is called discretion

vienna you and I were in sync on this one. poorer than steve for the moment but I think in the long run scouting out the choice setups will pay off. money missed is better than money lost. I'm trading 6-10 lot and will not go unless it all lines up. overall I'm much better than 50% and the losses have been minimal so I think there is some validity to the method.
