Tried 2 trades in this muck. No more until it decides where to go.

I'm waiting for @Buy1Sell2 to confirm that a massive, massive move up is imminent.

2 ticks slippage? :wtf:

I have heard that a lot of traders take Friday off. I can see why.

Am I the only one who got chopped up this morning? Just got stopped out on my last long entry for + 1 points. Pulled back deeper than I was interested in sitting through.

Stalking a long entry from here. I still maintain the view that the LOD is set and that we'll make new highs from here.

I would trade short towards a LL, for a better swing long opportunity

Looks like the bulls won this one. I think we're done below for today. Need to clear out 2798 first.

NQ almost back to HOD.

Is this goodbye to 2798?

Not sure if there's anything inherently wrong with Fridays. Been a long time since I've experienced chop like we had this morning.

Mark D Cook said he took Fridays off because a long term analysis of his performance showed a poor result on Fridays. But according to him - it was because of fatigue throughout the week.

He also traded lightly on Monday's because that was a bad day too. According to him - he thought it was because he was just warming up after a weekend off. Allegedly, Tuesdays were his best day.

Either buy / hold near the lows of the day and put stop under if you have enough conviction we end higher on day or just wait till the murderous chop ends I think.
