ES Journal - 2017/2018

[manonfire]

This trade has run it's course. Took about 10 handles of heat for over 20 handles of upside, captured over 4x that very part time trading to the upside on larger size this week.

Getting a little dangerous either side here. Holding one last position to see if nq can squeeze to 7/25 highs.

With low volumes next week look out for this trade, could have a more pronounced downside starting Tuesday.

for the love of god, this is who i am trading against?

this is easy

 

[oraclewizard77]

Well I had a sell stop to hit if price broke back under 2876 and it got filled and made back my small loss for taking a stop. I guess I really need to give trade room to spike a little above the my 1st stop.

I also had a long trade on oil to fill during the time my 1st ES order was short in case we went up hard. The oil trade activated on buy stop which worked out to hit target which is also why I was trying to cancel my ES order and did not want to let it lose all my profit from the CL trade.
