clearly the market is trying to advance (or at least doesn't show downward momentum). I stopped myself out at 1277.75 for a 1 pt loss. No position for right now. Will most likely increase bet on next trade.

clearly the market is trying to advance so I'll put on a new short here at 1277.50
unfortunately market lets you be slightly right so you continue to think you are managing trade correctly. Just a matter of time. poof!

Quote from gerry875:
yes - sounds easy - but unlike the streaming water, the market can change its flow very fast. so - to go with the flow (the trend) - you first have to know (find out/guess/etc.) what the trend is going to be in the next minutes/ hours/etc. if a trend is nearing it's end - it (from a physical viewpoint) already accelerates in the opposite direction - and this is something you should first recognize in order to "go with the flow".
