Buying es at 1509.50-.75 if it can get down there...

1.25 stop

First target minimum 3 pts

Just a thought...

If it gets back to 1509 area, you might consider shorting instead. Depends on downdraft velocity/ferocity. Only NQ seems to have oomph. All others are failing/flailing inside the gap, at least for now.
 
S @ 1510.50 PS @ 1513.50.

I got shaken out of my long, the internals say the market hasn't recovered from the down draft and we're sitting up here on a ledge, so lets see what the short side has to offer.

Good trading,

JJ
 
A little swinger... out by eod

S ES @1510.75. Stop @1512.25.

Maybe early, but I like the r/r.

Osorico


EDIT: At least it was quick, and not too painful. :eek:

Looking for S again. No lesson learned.
 
Another little ES swinger... out by eod, if filled

Will short ES on SS @1511.25. Catastrophic stop @1513.25

As of 14:40 EST not filled.

Similar strat set for YM @13327

Buy zone was missed by a few ticks.... canceling orders.

Looking for a short in 1514-1514.50 area. Will be using a reversal entry on the short.

Stopped out, that wasn't even a short relapse. :)

Little by little I learn that I should not swing. Stick with what I know. Man, I don't know how I EVER did it. Those tic-by-tic periods before you can even determine the correctness of a thesis is just killer. Much more painful, imo, than taking a pre-defined loss relatively quickly.

Got a few more minutes. Maybe I'll pick off a full position scalp, long or short I don't care. :)
