ES Journal - 2017/2018

[oraclewizard77]

So ended up profitable for the day. Sometimes I think its better to trade weakness then pick tops.

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.

I would like to be short again on ES, but can't force my self to take a trade since I don't want to turn a winning day on Friday into a losing day with 2 days off and not being able to trade.

willing to add higher, this like an erection rock hard for 5 mins before starts to soften :|

Congrats to the longs. Staying away from this market for now, as I tend to trade tops and bottoms reversals. Focusing on CL.

Congrats to the longs. .

That's history, the LEFT side of the chart, we got the hard right edge now!

You are right, but I need a top to be put in first and then Ill happily short a test of it. Not trying to step in front of a moving train here. Unfortunately my method doesn't really have a plan for uncharted territory (new highs with nothing to reference left of us).
