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

Surprising, I'm still bearish :)
 
Profitable trades will stay in profit upon inception with greater duration when placed coinciding with the predominant trend on the timeframe your trading.
 
Quote from Spectre2007:

Meaning price will retrace only briefly between your entry point to stop loss point interval. Then it will resume price trend into profitability.
 
So how do you make it happen.

1) trade at the extremes of ATR
2) place entry points at extremes
3) place stop loss interval, the size being dictated on 'if price hits my SL, the market is doing something unexpected to shift the trend anticipated'.
4) if stop loss intervals are too large then, your take profit points have to compensate for the large SLs.
5) if your take profit point interval from entry point is too large for the price structure then the trade becomes nullified, and shouldn't be placed. Because your take profit point will rarely be hit if trading counter long term trend.
