I have a suggestion for B1S2. Ask moderator to clean up and stop some of the mindless posters that are spoiling one of the best threads ever on ET. Some keep changing their handle and infest good things with dribble !

... the ignore button has exactly the same effect.

Porgie has some valid comments, and the thread stands (along with several others) of the multitude of ways traders develop/learn to make money in the markets.

yes. I shorted at 1415.00 and have held til now. Reaction highs have not been violated yet. Chart was posted a few pages back. I made the trade to provide a segue for me to get back to strictly position and swing trading. I didn't care what the entry was, I just wanted to get back to what I feel I do best. Thus I took a small position and will get out at the appropriate time. 1433.75 would just be underwater by 1 point right now, so my system is still very valid.--I am down of course roughly 20 points right now.

Thank you for your chart and comments. I am not criticising your trade, just trying to understand why you took it thereafter how you manage it.
As I said earlier I am following Spyder's journal, trying to identify FTTs which can be higher highs, Lower Lows or failure to go higher/lower. Your system certainly is different and interesting.
Good trading.

B1...EXACTLY HOW PROFITABLE? If u did very well you would still be doing it...

not as profitable as the longer term trades. The reason that daytrading is not for me is that I am balancing it's profitability against the value of other things I could be doing (like reviewing more markets).
 
My point exactly.

Porgie asked a question (which some may have interpreted as being a bit aggressive) and B1S2 gives him an honest answer.

For daytrading I keep the YM and ES on my screen.

For swing/position trading I monitor the YM, TY, QM and ZB.

Works like a charm, and position actually feels better (more profitable per unit of risk taken) across the markets traded.

Best Regards,

JJ

Hey JJ,
How ya doing? Just wanted to chime in and then go.

Ignore does not work the same when someone changes their name every time they start pissing everyone off. And as for his comments I think he keeps them on a word document and just keeps copying and pasting the same blah blah blah.

You guys have a good trading day :)
 
I knew that answer b1 already....check my previous posts and i said that.....big money maker...I seriously believe that....you have the tolerance required both emotionally and financially to do that...most don't....i don't....you are big picture guy....many markets....i am simple picture buy...smaller picture, smaller thinking...minimal money...i really don't post here to cause trouble..... If I was trading your stuff I would like to spend some time private discussions, but i am not at that level and high probability never will be...I do have a good grasp of intraday emini trading....all emini's.....and a good single system that did take 6 years to develop...inherent hypertension is limiting step for me....that is why I type more than trade......brother trades too much....most of time when he loses is when he breaks rules...based on 6 year study. More than anything else I know you have good proven rules and you follow them.
 
Hey Gary, Happy New Year to you too!

My trading is coming along nicely, job is the usual hustle, but at least I can chill with the social scene.

Wrap your business up man, the markets miss you! :p

I also like the ZG market B1, but it's a big contract, the risks a trader has to assume is pretty high, relatively speaking that is. But when it trends, it trends for dayz ...

Later,

JJ
