ES Journal - 2023/2024

[flash crash]

i like it. That's around where I think the ES is headed next.

I'm still very new to this and feeling my way around. Two weeks ago I wouldn't have even thought of comparing last leg to this leg.

Next week I'll be on about something else. Maybe Bollinger bands.

I have no idea how holidays affect trading the next day.

For example, am I looking for a pullback to yesterday's ES high or Tuesday's SPX high? For ES the difference is about 5 points, 67 vs 62.75.

 

[Laissez Faire]

Could today be the day we finally see some pulling back? My statistical data for today is mixed, so no strong edge as of now.

Like @flash crash I would be curious to see what happens around Tuesday's High/Close. If that area doesn't hold on the Open - we might very well see some back-filling today. No, not a crash you bears...

accidentally been posting my trades on the completley wrong thread last few mins lol

took some positions off and put them back on for rollover.

Also added my nq back on that I closed this morning. Maged to get back in at a better price by a good 100 points ish so not bad

 

[theapprentice]

putting it back on here (on different contract)

 

[theapprentice]

went long ym, too.
See how we get on. I feel like we could get a dip, but if we do I imagine it'll be a nice btfd opportunity so i'm long here in case we just ramp, but saving some powder for add ons in case we dip a little

 

[theapprentice]

added mnq
