truth be told, spectre and handle could trade circles around me,and countless traders before them, they just don't (rarely)post their trades,you could say i post the most though

No argument there, in favor or against, but your transparency and effort in live daytrading calls is unsurpassed. Buy1Sell2 is definitely transparent but he is mostly a position trader.

I'm far from it, one trader that understood ES like the back of his hand was Apex.

Holy crap Ammo I had no idea how busy you were over here on the ES!

Here is my shitty opinion or plan. If we go straight to the highs and make some sort of triple top looking thing it will be the end of the road at least for a month. If we very neatly slide down to 41 and then continue higher it will break out to whatever...

you can look at other price structures on the 60 minute to get an idea of how ES likes to form tops, the patterns it uses.

Quote from failed_trad3r:

I didn't believe. But now I do. We will go to new highs, and soon. It won't take more than a year, mark my words. Hard lesson.

:eek:

I've been waiting for this. Thanks for sharing your insights.

I enjoy reading ammo/others posts late at nite. I wish I had more time to post, but between overseeing employees trading my funds, going through chemo, trading the first 45 minutes/approx last two hours, I take some 30 trades in the ES, plus still have a couple students. Concentration is high when one scalps the market, often times by the time I am able to post a trade, price taken off for 3-4 ticks and don't want to look like after the fact. I don't go for big profits either, most I usually can get is 4/8 ticks, but very often I get one tick. There have been some days where I have done 25 trades of one tick, let me tell you, exhausted after market closes. I have been able to blend both TA and Price action together to make very consistent profits

Market profile has always looked interesting to me, but I have never been able to make it work for me to the degree I require to add it to what I do now.

the es at nite for a few months anyway,noticed it 3 or 4 months ago, may have been doing it longer, but it's been following the nikkie, tonite it's up 110 and the es hasn't budged,it also stopped at a major s/r line last nite,so it's a breakout in mp mentality,so covering my shorts (52.8)@ 57 /57.25,going to bed, wait for a better setup
