Ya just might want to take a moment to reconsider. (Posted this elsewhere earlier, but will leave one here as well for others' benefit.)

Weekly

Yes and also this one (ES): (why when i don't believe in the lines i keep drawing them)

 

[Zwaen]

Be warned.

Last night I picked up that some of the people who've been bearish for the last week or so now are bullish! That definitely warrants some caution to the long side as they're usually wrong.

Post-CPI rallies historically have seen range bound movement for the rest of the week, so doesn't seem like the time to be greedy on longs. Waiting for RTH.

Getting a bit curious on your datinglist for this

Was in my mind too, which is why i'm taking these latest longs on the spreadbet/bucketshop piker account

Also have a hell of a buffer due to the last 10 days trading so it would take a freaking CRASH to hurt me here and that just ain't happening lol

closing the best entry here
holding other 2
will keep playing with the position, adding and covering
We'll see how red or green I am at the end of the day! lol
Probably too noisy to keep posting the trades on this one as I try to manage this spreadbet account position, longing at the 'top'!

Flat B/E here. News coming up.

 

[Laissez Faire]

Shorts blew up yesterday on CPI. Maybe longs blow up today on PPI? Flat and watching until RTH.

 

[theapprentice]

nice pop. more please

edit: closed the 1st 'add on' here for profit

Back down to 1 position now from 3

ready to start adding them longs back on, on dips

 

[Laissez Faire]

Bears got rekt as usual.

Still cautious towards the long side today, though. Might be looking for a short later on.

 

[theapprentice]

buying a dow on the spreadbet account here
Had a good old dip now

 

[flash crash]

A little scalpy this morning.

I trade off the RTH chart, but I do so in reference to Globex. Covered shorts when price didn't break the low of the news reaction. Trailed the stop tight on the long when price didn't break 42.75 on the second try.

Each entry right now is and has been one ES at a time. And for now, two contracts open at once is my max until I get above the level where they stop trailing the drawdown up behind me.
