1st target was hit on 1st contract. Stop for 2nd contact moved a little above BE and I have another target set a little lower.

Short 2699.50

Trend line from Jan highs es, 100 ma on cash, regular trading hours, cash low of 4/18 bar. Lowest common denominator of confluence, still no guarantees for those looking for the holy grail and absolutes.

Volume very light. This is setting up to be fake break out.

It certainly doesn't confirm the move.

I`m right there with you... always 2 ticks before the whole number.... SLD 5c @ 99.50 that I laid out this morning with more to sell up to 2710 scale.... predicated on this set up below that I posted in another thread at 10:20 this morning.

Anyway... Even if we break down, this is not the "big one", more highs to come. So in that way, I am in B1S2's camp. The difference being, when I see opportunities, long or short, I trade, B1S2 would rather go to bed holding (large) drawdowns, AND accepting loss of time and opportunity, both of which are realized, and neither of which can be replaced.!

BINGO... My sentiments precisely!

We`ll see.... Small but something to build upon & Avg up.... That`s if my Stop isn`t tagged at Even...

I missed the whole session today aside from first hour of RTH... was hoping PA would drive a little deeper & hit some size... There are tremendous benefits to scaling.

Hey Spooz...

Just a reminder... Directional signals occur at volume troughs... continuance or change of trend. NoKo, among other headline risk is in confluence right now. Just my observation. No index positions.

Good trading to ya!!
