I have great respect for anyone who has the courage and confidence not only to give a sales career a try, but especially those who take it direct to the consumer by going door to door. I have several very well to do friends who started thriving businesses going door to door themselves, and in many cases, continue to grow by employing outside sales people instead of telemarketers. I'll bet that young salesperson made more than $13 yesterday
The other day I put tires on one of the cars, I dropped the f'r off at 11... come back at 1 and of course its not done yet, so I'm stuck there for another hour or so... but when I dropped it off there's some kid on the corner with a cooler full of bottled waters and he's screaming "ice cold water $1" at every car that goes by. Those Kroger waters that you can buy 32 of for like $2.50. When I came back he was still there. Still screaming. It was hot af. I sat there and watched him. I think he sold one the whole time I was there. I said man... this kid is going places lol. I got my tires and pulled out at the light, gave him a $20 bill for one water lol. I like that. There's still hope. :D

We were at Cony Island a few summers ago and there was a kid there doing the same thing - he was selling hand over fist. He knew the importance of dropping his line in the right fishing hole. But I agree, that kid you saw is going places.
 
Quick gap fill trade. Tight stop, as you can see. Will consider adding to the trade if it climbs a little before filling. The beauty of the MES is that you can scale in and out, that is, unless you've got huge courage and will take that risk with full-size contracts for this type of trade.

EDIT: Stop break even plus 1 at 3007.75. These turn so dang quickly that it's not worth the risk of ever letting it go against once you're in profit. IMO.

Would you mind sharing why there wasnt enough reason to cover around the 75 area , after you had already called for it earlier that day? Are you using targets based off SPY?
Highs have not been broken . --Looking for extended gains.--
