Childhood trauma I'm guessing....maybe fondled by dirty Uncle.

Ho hum, another boring upday coming Monday.
Unless Kim goes bananas or something or other

Hope the "boring days" keep up for a while...up or down.

Wots your call???

I'm not sure if this was in response to my post directly above it whether you were just asking people in general and not me in particular:

The trigger is $SPX above yesterday’s high, stop a close below yesterday’s close, first target 2960’s.

On the off chance you were asking me in particular, my post wasn't a "call." It was, imo, clearly a set up: Buy ES at market if and when $SPX trades above 2875.97 ("the trigger") which was Thursday's high. Stop for today was a close below Thursday's low. My average fill was 2878.50 ... first target to take some off is 2928.50 for no technical reason other than I Like taking 50 point profits. Target for remains is 2960's and a runner or two for anything above that level.

My hard stop is 2824 but I will have it paused at the Globex open and will work the trade manually should a big gap down occur. I doubt that will happen (a gap down can't be ruled out, just not likely a gap below today's low).

I will get concerned if the market trades below 2850 and I am likely to kill the position if it does and re-enter the swing position on one of my typical intraday set ups. For example, I may kill the trade at 2848, but if I see a triple test at 42, 41.75, 41.50 then I'll put the position back on and trade it from there.

I think if we see trade above today's high then this becomes 80% probability of testing the 2961.25 high or higher very quickly.

any biases??

dude, you are building up all kinds of biases against you - the f'n thread has become darn near worthless and unreadable. Talk about noise Show some restraint, for crying out loud.

It was in reponse to this post by bondy.....

You guys should rename this journal 'the circus' since youre all a bunch of clowns.
Nqueerious was calling a bottom on the FIRST DAY the market dropped last week, i almost fell out of my chair laughing, another b1s1, markets only go up. And now reiterating the call again because 'technical skillz'. Lol okay napolean dynamite. Tell everyone where your sim account got 'filled' later, in hindsight.

Bondy wanted to call a 'circus' but that was his limit of his calls, other than saying he wasn't prepared to throw his pearls of wisdom to a herd of swine (that's us).
LOL

Bondy prefers to show his "pearls" at the bath house....not that there's anything wrong with that.

Ahhh ... I have MBondy on ignore/block so I don't see his post. I assume I'm not missing anything.

I understand.
I was very tempted, but decided I need to cull my block list, not add to it

To his credit... He did call the top and presumably profited from it.
