Finally !!!!!!!

Took 1/2 off right away. They can jam this back up into the close.

Don't feel like getting squeezed into the weekend. Talking 2nd half off at 40.

B1S2 you have a nice portfolio going.... what do you think about adding a long corn to the mix? What do you see?

I just got long today at 335 with a 10pt stop looking to make over 200 points on this trade and let it ride for the rest of the year if I am not stopped out.

Thanks. I closed out the Yen Futures today for a 64 pip loss per contract (800 per). Also, I closed the Short Novie Beans for a loss of 12.5 cents (625 per).

I am still long the Auggie Heating Oil( up about 3000 per), Long the Euro FX( up about 1900 per) ,Pound (up about 750 per) and Aussie Futures (up about 900 per). I am still long the Oct Sugar( down about 150)

As far as Corn goes, I see it in a downtrend with rallies to be sold into. I believe your Corn Long is a counter trend move, but of course money can be made from both sides.

I will be starting a separate journal soon to chronicle my trades other than ES trades into one journal so that it may be more inviting for me to keep up. :)
 
hey b1s2,

the market is pretty resilient. Its a fixed game. Whats your view on it now?

the trading houses will chop it around in this 50 point range till earnings break us out.

I lied about going to bed.

Observed possible bear flag formation starting at 05:00 EDT. Decided to wait to see if there would be a downside breakout from the flag at which I could add on to short position. Breakout appeared to occur at 06:23 EDT.

At 06:24 EDT, added to short:
S 1543.25
BS 1544.50 (1.25 points)
PT 1536.25 (7 points)
