sorry, got busy there, exit 46.00
yeah, been the longest in a while for scalping trade, I had to rev and just reverse again.
That is the trouble for any trader, taking last trade in a trend and of course most that losses but my stops are so wide, they seldom get hit, but when they do and averaged down as I get, going to have to work couple weeks to make it back, but trading all these years and continue back testing shows me this works best for me. Am very disciplined helps.
Horrible day for most cept from the open and for me Pete Rose kind'a day.
Good evening all.

Expecting a big move soon. Either up or down.

Hope it doesn't spend all day consolidating again.

Long at 2749 on breakout of that R. took quick +2.25 at HOD, may re-enter on the next breakthrough.

This may play out like March 9-13 post employment number action. One last push here then rollover and down/sideways till fed next week.

I don't know what your experience level is but you might want to look at pull back entries as opposed to breakout entries once new highs or lows are established.

Hey Speedo,
I do it both ways. I guess I have 2-3k hours of screentime.

Long 2743.75 (had to chase that a little....ugh...)

 

[beerntrading]

Target is 2748....but I'll manage my way out in case we keep rising rather than setting a limit order
