I realize we touched the June low, but for me, I don't see a bounce off the June low as was suggested earlier----

B1S2, we are totally screwed until we see true capitulation and the Fed going "whoops we went too far and we did not know the data." I should know, I am long in the biggest drawdown in ET history...2300 (M)NQ points. I am not proud of this. But it is real, and I really hate it.

Hopefully a small percentage of TLNW.

It's a bit larger than I am comfortable with. 2300 points is quite a large drawdown. Considering the time left for the position, it does not bode well. I think by the time middle December comes around, this trade will close at a loss but at least not as large as it is now. As a bull, I got caught up in the bear. Oh well. That's the way of the Fed.

I don't mean to pour fuel on the fire, but why the hell did you not bail out earlier? Or use any stops?

Because of the action I saw during the June-Aug run-up. I thought it would continue when the Fed started talking.

I am just burned out on trading daily ranges, and I have been on a trend-following thingy for the past 6 months, and is has not worked out. I really thought inflation was licked in midsummer, but nope!
