ES Journal - 2021/2022

[Laissez Faire]

And a hurdle it was...

They're not making it easy for us today. What would surprise me today is if we reversed hard from here and sold off, but in this volatility it has to be considered as an option.

Most likely from my POV is that we by end of day breakout above 3885 and hit 3900 (conservative target) => 3920 (target) => 3930-50 (outlier target and unlikely).

Any other views...?

Inside range,
As you said earlier.

I’m still biased long but …
This look kinda weak to me.

My simple and naive observation is that we had the opportunity to sell off, but we didn't.

So, I perceive what's going on now merely consolidation before a new push higher.

But as I said. It's simple and naive.

I can only say one thing for certain. We have about an 80pc chance of touching 59 or 85. since we are closer to 85, that looks more likely.

well you nailed Sunday night. I though we’d have held a bit higher up. I’m leaning lower but will go long after a bit more basing or will take a scalp with some strength

I wouldn't see us dip much below 70 if higher on the day.

FWIW, my long entry is a late one at 73, so obviously not loving this PB. Game plan is the same. Add on a BO higher.

Not so sure I want to play the short side today if we go lower as I suspect it will be messy.

i went long at 71 and out at 82. Will re-enter when I’m confident we are done selling off

2 hr bar looks like it could give us a fake upthrust bar. After it closes at 1:30 est will give us more info

Looks good for a move up on lower tf’s

 

[Laissez Faire]

Come and take my 1 lot, bots. If you're reading ET.

If I weren't in drawdown, I would probably have trailed a tight stop here and called it a day, but I "need" a big one today. And I think I have a good shot at getting it.
