To update where I stand:

Still Long from 1328.5 with a stop at 1291 for now, which I'm hoping to get rid of sometime today if we push over 1335.

37 point stop for a 7 point gain ? Am i missing something here ?

hit that 31 R mentioned this morning,, great place to pause, scale out, stop for a while, taking it very cautious today

Trade disregarded for journal integrity purposes.

I don't know if you're missing something or not.

Quote from Chuck Krug:

i'm trying to get in on the trend sooner than the MA crossover, and was reading about Trader Vic's 123 reversal, which seems good for that purpose

123s on an intraday basis often work best when right by a pivot point. A 123 through one pivot often means that the next pivot is in play.

One of my more reliable set-ups intraday.

1946.75 - 1948.75 not a bad place for NQ to take a break and retrace a little. I'll look to get short on some kind of confirmation signal.... hopefully it can break 1946.00 and get some kind of capitulation volume.

Next resistance after that is ~1960

*Larger bias is still UP, just looking for predictable retraces*

Someone tries very hard to force for the upside gap to fill before fed meeting results.
