Nice... they did it again just barely missing my entry. I was able to get some on on a reversal entry but not nearly as big of a position that I wanted...


Looking for a move to test 1515.. it is almost there and then 1518 where I will contemplate a short position for a massive downturn in the market. Most likely wait for a bit of confirmation on the short due to the bullishness of this market.


US futures current positions....

Short at 1513.75 (damn right here at 1515.50 would have been a much nicer entry)

Stop a little above Fridays highs

There are "better" scalping threads but this one I hold near and dear... had an epiphany after reading it and I've never looked back. Right around the time I "quit" this thread.

Good trading,

Gonna have some telephone work done today and over the next few days I'll be switching back to a more stable internet connection (yeah I know, penny wise ...), but before I start "breaking-up" I've gotta say that was one of the best threads I've ever read on short-term scalping around these parts.

So long as it's done with a prevailing trend(s) - there can be more than one ya know - I'm very confident that it can be a very profitable (at least that's what my charts say) way to trade.

Good trading,

Jimmy Jam

I think the ES is clinically dead right now ...

let's hope it wakes up in the pm session

I'm sure somebody has bought 1514 and sold 1515 about 100 times today!

Impossible! Threads-o-plenty adamantly state 1 point A DAY is not possible. And you dare suggest triple-digit points on a slow day and the day isn't even over? I'll let it go this time, since you're relatively new to ET. But don't ever have those thoughts again. ETers won't hear of it.
