ES Journal - 2019/2020

@NoahA - Drop it bud....what a waste of time this is.
He literally shared his trade deck on that short...he's also contributed an exponential amount to this thread compared to your 26 posts....just drop it man, nobody here wants to read this crap.

We should all focus on one thing and that's reading this bitch....
Share trades, levels, forecasts but drop the hate...

@Spooz Top 2 - Brilliant call on the outside day!

One of the secrets to success of trading is doing your own research. When you actually take the time to plot his calls along with what the market is doing and where its at, you can clearly see that he isn't giving any free trades away. Do you really want me to show you how 75% of his past 10 trade calls, if you can even call it that, had no predictive value because they are either all after the fact or just a hunch that doesn't even provide any substance?

So you see, my posts are aimed at the newbie who is somehow in awe of hindsight trade calls. That's my contribution, and a very worthy one in my opinion.

As for his outside trade call, when said in the morning, it had no predictive value because he said he wouldn't be surprised. If he said he took shorts and is holding for the previous day low to break, then I would be impressed. Heck, he could have even said that even though he sees a bullish signal he was still holding short, that would make me impressed. But as stated, the post had no predictive value.

If I say I wouldn't be surprised for the previous top from February to be tagged in August, will you be impressed?

I'm not sure how well your calls are going to feed me when you post the entry and exit both way after the fact.

Yesterday you say you want it to get 44.50-47 to get long. Well it didn't get there, but you magically say after the fact that you scaled in and hence were already in, even though it didn't hit where you were gonna get long. We have to wait a whole 45 minutes to actually see that you got in, and apparently higher than where it got to since it didn't even get there. Wow... awesome call!

Today you say to short 75 and over right at the open, but you don't mention that you are already short. You wait until later in the day to produce a fill for your 3 lot. And right after this post you make the bold bullish signal, followed up with the statement that there are lots of possibilities. So now you're in the position of showing shorts, and saying a bullish signal, so really, by the end of the day, you could take credit for anything. You could have said you exited the shorts and followed up on your bullish signal, or you could have said you held the shorts.

Then of course your regular method seems to be scaling in, so that you have a wide range of prices to pick from, and other trades you say the market only gave a few points, so you are happy taking 4 points. Once again, all bases covered.

Can you explain to me how your posts are feeding anyone?

I strongly suspect he is feeding himself, the only one in here he is responsible for feeding.

Back to trading gentlemen. I’ve got a short limit order at 3332 stop 3338. Hope I get filled. Looks very weak. Biden-harris the impetus we need to bring a bit of volatility back to the downside

Allow me to be very clear. I place, ZILCH/NIET/ZERO amount of time plotting other people's calls and tracking them/confirming them. I take EVERYONE'S call with a grain of salt unless you've left me impressed and by then, there's a good chance i'm PM'ing you to bounce ideas and share data. I spend enough time working on my own excel sheets, acd levels and charts, I really don't see value in confirming other people's bashing....

You may feel like your service is valuable for newbie's...but a newbie could have taken his morning call with no predictive value and make money. Another decent trader on this forum shared an 80% of closing at 69 if we hold the LOD....that was another very good call, didn't pan out today but yet, had a predictive value but yielded a negative result.

Please stop what you are doing.
Positive contributions are very welcome pertaining to the ES.
Let's stick to that.

 

[Relentless]

Dude. When did you ever contribute anything of value?

I stated early on that most here were way above my level of experience and that I was here to learn because I saw value from some posters. If nothing else I try to let posters know I appreciate their content so that they stick around to deliver more for everyone (including you if you'd actually read back) as opposed to attacking their accountability when they hand out useful observations - discouraging them from further interaction. Mind boggling I know? [/QUOTE]

As far as I can see, @Buy1Sell2 is a far better trader than you. Yet, you mock him in his own journal without ever having posted a trade yourself?

a) You don't have my trading records, and his are all over the map - so this is a pointless observation on your part. b) Did I attack the guy? No I was poking fun - just like with you. Had I known you were so sensitive and thin-skinned I wouldn't have. Coming off as such a heavy data / stat / probability guy I find it rather odd you'd be defending a comment like "after testing highs 6 times we will breakout". Really dude? I actually find B1S2 to be a classy guy that takes a lot of shit from some people. As far as his accountability and trading consistency go... yeah not so much. Anyone that has actively tracked that over time knows a lot doesn't add up. Anyway I digress - comments in mild humor.

Last week I posted quite a few trades and pretty much nailed the entire week with a blotter to prove it (56,50 points). Not a word from you or my critics then.

You posted winning trades for 5 entire days. Somebody get Guinness World Records on the phone. Didn't realize the thread turned back into a pissing contest so fast. Are you trying to help people or are you trying to stroke your ego?

Then, when I post a few scratch trades today you're trying to mock me and post a picture of falling knives?

Have a sense of humor - it keeps things light in a thread (or the majority of the forum for that matter) that tends to derail into a BSD shitshow frequently. Were we in reverse positions, I'd probably have liked the post, chuckled, and moved on. *Shrug*

Anyway whatever. I'll just go back to lurking and giving positive feedback to those who deserve it. The rest can carry on with the usual bouts of toxicity and multi-nicking.

Covered and scalped on the way up....

I always like this one. It sounds good loud.
Queued to the lyrics below.

And a don't go burst the bubble
On rich folks who get rude
'Cause you won't get in no trouble
When you eats that kinda food

Now they're smokin' up their junk bonds
And then they go get sniff
And they're dancin' in the yacht club
With Muff and uncle biff
But there's one good thing that happens
When you toss your pearls to swine

Their attitudes may taste like shit
But they go good with wine.

I just listen to B1.
My drive is 325 yards... and my brokerage account is up roughly half that in percentages.

And.... I haven't caught Covid.

...

And.... I haven't caught Covid.

That's because you already have/had it, and do not know it yet. Remember that weird pain in your side and the sniffle you had back in April? Yep.

Don't drink too much of the kool-aid. It will mess up your electric-acid pencil tests.

Prolly you are right.
I remember when Covid became serious in Australia, there were a few days I was feeling like the flu was trying to get at me, so I bunkered down, kept warm, drank lots of soup and water, got lots of rest and since then so far this winter have been feeling good.
