ES Journal - 2013

Quote from atticus:

Nice to see you back, my friend.

Long 59.00; SL 44.

Out all at 74.00 for +15.00.

I bought a bunch of upside flies on SPX, so remain long to 1590 SPX.

+10.25 locked... following +8.25 short-side from this morning

ES is a two-way street... a one-sided bias never pays :)
That's a sim-ladder. You're not trading this in your production account as well?
 
Quote from tortoise:

you changed your numbers? (eg, wasn't it 377 then 512?)

no, same for me but the others work equally well. It's not an exact-tick science, it is a universal law of price action zones.

trumps all else intraday, stuff like MP and moving averages, etc are secondary

it is a personal account... if it was sim, I'd have 50 or 100 showing

I'm shifting my own personal trade management style to wider distance swings versus frenetic pieces. There are times when a +5pt trade (or two) comes back out for scratch or -1pt, too. Those are whole trades to other people with different management styles.

This fall I'm going to manage my screens from GoToMyPC and hold some ES trades all day or more than one day. Same entry approach... just a different management choice.
